Here's an interesting stat:
...while Rotisserie baseball is recognized as the granddaddy of all fantasy sports, football has emerged as the most popular fantasy sport among the 15 million Americans who spend hours massaging statistical data and picking teams. There are now 17 million unique users of fantasy football sites, compared with 3 million fantasy baseball players.
17:3 sounds about right to me, but it's the first time I've ever seen it tallied up.
Also, fantasyplayers.com apparently has a bigger chunk of the fantasy sports market than I would have thought:
Mr. Russo scored a coup of sorts in the world of online fantasy games when Nielsen Online reported last November that fantasyplayers.com was the No. 4 site among fantasy football destinations, behind Yahoo, ESPN and CBS SportsLine, but ahead of NFL.com, FoxSports.com and SI.com. His company was No. 2 in fantasy baseball.
Never used them before. Was frankly pretty much unaware of them until today.
