Football may be more popular, but baseball will always be our national pastime.  We have only a couple hours before Tim Lincecum unleashes the first pitch of the 2010 World Series as the San Francisco Giants take on the Texas Rangers.

Well, here are five good reasons why you should take the leap and give fantasy basketball a chance if you’ve never played before:   1) Like any other sport, it takes time to learn. Remember your first baseball draft? When you took players from your favorite team instead of the best available?
