I have tried many different websites for fantasy football, but I have come to feel most comfortable and used to yahoo. The website is a way for us users to manage our teams and they make it easy for us to do our research on players and such. The reason this is a subculture is because not many people will research what players have the best average against Derek Lowe, or why Carlos Ruiz plays best on Wednesdays. This is something avid users will do, this is not a social norm, thus making it a subculture. Fantasy is a perfect world for these activities. It is a very far fetched idea for a regular Joe to be able to manage baseball teams with some of the MLB's best talent. It gives them the idea they are the owner or manager of a team and can use every action a real manager can. Sign, release, and trade are some of the actions that can take place, giving people the feeling as if they have some power! Fantasy baseball is clearly a subculture due to it is not normal for people to spend hours on end on sports sites looking up player stats, thus making it clearly a simple subculture(simple to some).
