    Enough is enough is Enough (is a bad Jennifer Lopez movie). Why do we put ourselves through all this pointless frustration?!?

    It's that time of year. Days are shorter. Winter is beginning to set in. You're ready to quit fantasy football forever, and you really mean it this time. Each and every November, millions of fantasy football players begin to feel their seasons (and their preseason buy-ins) slip away. Sundays cease to be days of rest and become days of furious anger and desperate howls to god (or Peyton Manning) to just help you win this damn stupid game. It's not worth it. It's time we band together and just quit. Here are some of the many reasons why.
