European here. I have heard of the concept of fantasy football, but never quite gotten what is so appealing about it, how it works (you pick players from different teams?), and why grown (wo)men are willing to dedicate hours of their life to it. Please explain :).

When you play fantasy football, you are interested in almost every NFL game because you or your opponent may have a player that’s playing. This is the entertainment factor of playing fantasy sports. This helps if your favorite team in real life is having a down season, then you have your fantasy team to keep you entertained for the season.
Fantasy sports is like skilled gambling where you are betting on probabilities. If you are able to look at historical stats, you can have a better fantasy team compared to your peers that has a greater probability of winning the championship.
If everyone in your league is skilled, then it typical just comes down to luck due to game script and injuries.
Fantasy football is much easier than other fantasy Sports, because games are only on Sunday with 1 game each in Thursday and Monday.
