Hmmm... that's hard. I mean, both have the potential to be creepy and weird, depending on the player and their level of obsession and/or contact with reality. To do fantasy football well you have to have a fair bit of knowledge about the game and though I don't feel the pull toward it, I can kind of respect the geeking that requires. D&D requires a bit more creativity, I suppose, since it's pretty limitless. Though people do test the limits a bit too much with all-powerful immortal characters... Huh... A fuck it! Gimmie a good ol' Harry Potter RP anyday.
Fantasy football - easier to gamble actual monies on. D&D - Swords, dude. Swords.
Let us now take this examination to what happens in the real world.
Fantasy football brought into reality - people playing football. D&D brought into reality - LARPing.
Following such lines of thought, I believe the inevitable conclusion is that every friendly game of football should henceforth be considered LARPing. The thought, it makes me laff.
