3. I was co-commissioner of our league at work

for seven seasons. I know what a time suck it can be, so kudos for doing the job.

I started playing back in the '90s, when our commish sat in his cubicle Monday mornings and reviewed box scores in the newspaper so he could tally points. Beats working, I guess. I took a break for some years and started plaing again back in '13. Still, no team I ever managed finished better than third in either league in which I participated. Slowly it dawned on me that I wasn't paying enough attention to my team, nor was I really interested in doing so. Moreover, it blurs the line of rooting interest when a player you need to do well is up against your favorite team. So, I stopped playing and took some stress away from my Sundays

Good luck to those who decide to participate, and here's hoping for a fun season.
