Why did you stop? It's still a ton of fun and there's a lot of really cool players to follow nowadays. I remember when I made a trade for Mike Trout a few years back before anyone really knew who he was and got to ride his crazy run the rest of the season. That was some awesome stuff, one of my coolest things I've ever experienced in a fantasy sport
The main reason I stopped is time. I have three small children and other hobbies like running and music. If I'm in a league...I'm all in and it consumes me lol. I'm not very good at moderation. It's hard for me to just play it passively. Now with the wealth of information and websites out there it is harder than ever to stay ahead of the curve. You might be really high on a player and see some good trends and then some article on Yahoo or ESPN will blow the player up and he's not a secret anymore. It used to be relatively easy to dominate a league, now it's really hard and the level of play is generally better across the board. I will probably start playing again once my kids get a little older. It's so much fun.
