Whats Wrong With Me?

I just bought 3 baseball magazines, as I do every year. I subscribed to the same three baseball sites, as I do every year. I tend to read two other sites almost daily and listen to two podcasts each week (at least I do this at the gym). I go the the Arizona Fall League each year, BHQ First Pitch each year and spend a week in Phoenix at Spring Training after which I fly to Las Vegas for the NFBC drafts. This is followed by three private head-to-head drafts.
My success rate is reasonable but falls short of paying for itself.
I spend at least twenty times as much time on baseball as I do on my stock portfolio.
What's wrong with me? ... probably plenty, but no matter.... I LOVE IT!

Sounds like a healthy pastime to me.

Join more drafts.
If thinking there is something wrong with me, that's what I do!
Also, avoid bears!

Easy, you have a sickness...a nice, healthy, incurable, obsessive sickness. On the bright side, it's rarely fatal, and if it does end up killing you, at least you'll die a happy man.

And if you do see a bear, make sure you are dressed.... unless it is a female bear, then its optional.

That bear looks like his best days are 'behind' him.

I believe Doughy was pretty specific in regards to it having to be a female bear. Here ya go Dough.....

By the way, this is what my mind pictured when hot blond bear Amy was brought up.

Yes. The little kid was Clint Howard, Ron Howard's brother. Clint about the time he was on "Gentle Ben"....
Clint Howard grown up...
Looks like the bear didn't just get to Leo...

Excuse me, "is this the correct line for the next b.r."?

I've gotta read these posts more carefully. I thought the advice was to "drink more drafts" and it hasn't really helped my baseball forecasting but I've met a lot of nice folks.

Imagine the horror if da' Bears sign defensive end Larry Webster next season? A possible W.C.S. for Aaron Rodgers.
