DNFL Mission Statement

We are the DNFL and our mission is that we don't actually have a mission statement! That we are a bunch of folks who do fantasy football because it's fun, rewarding, and it makes us feel important! We do it for the jocularity, comradeship, and the fact we can take a moment away from our real lives. Here's to us who do fantasy football! Damn, there are a lot of us!
