Anyone that has played in Fantasy Baseball or Fantasy Football leagues has likely witnessed some weird goings on in their leagues. Rumors of one owner trading the phone number of his hot sister to another owner for a middle infielder aren’t uncommon. Hearing that one guy loaned his backup kicker to his brother-in-law for one week because the latter loaned him $50 was something that might go down.

Usually, though, a good Fantasy League Commissioner will put the kibosh on such shenanigans, and all of those rumors end up just being that.

What’s strange is that Fantasy leagues try their best to replicate how a real major sports league works, from a commissioner to a draft to free agency and waivers to salary caps to just about anything else you can imagine.
