I know I've been fighting the same thing for the past 2 years...the first 5 or 6 years I continually expanded the amount and difficulty of leagues I played in until I realized "whoa, this is a little overboard". I still would like to drop another 1-2 leagues (I think I can handle playing in about 4 while commissioning 1).
More to say, will get to it later.

Commishing 3 leagues is just killing me this year. I think that more than anything is just killing me. Plus keeping up with the apps and whatnot (even with the great help Frank has given me) is just a killer.
I think to play in 2006 I really want to eliminate the additional responsibilities. I'd hate to drop out of any of the 4 leagues here on the board, as they've all established some great history and rivalries... I just don't know what to do at the moment.
I know for sure I won't do any other leagues aside from them. My brother-in-law pulled me into a league with his new brother-in-law the night before the season started.. I knew I should have stayed out of it, but did it as a favor. I have absolutely no interest in my team there. Not surprisingly it's a struggling 2-3.
I've almost comletely lost interest in the local league I run, and that started before we even drafted. I went into this season totally complacent, I really didn't care even if we had a league this year. And that's coming off 3 straight championships. I've just felt really weird about everything. Just not caring, and easily dismissing it all together. Not a good thing from a competitive standpoint.
I just feel REALLY burned out. I've got the Sunday Ticket, but barely watch any games. 3 out of the 5 Sundays I watched no more than 10 minutes of football (though I was at games the 1st 2 weeks). The other 2 Sundays, I watched the 1pm games, and felt like I was completely wasting my time. And my players did well both times I watched too... I just didn't seem to care.
It's just so weird, I have a nice HD setup, got the ticket, everything a hardcore fan could want, and I don't feel like watching the games. Just not a good thing. I can't explain it off as anything other than being burned out.
