Arian became disillusioned when he learned that those who he had believed to be his fans were actually only interested in the amount of points his on-field performance yields in their fantasy leagues. He thought it was "sick" that they did not care about Arian, the person, but instead about Arian, the commodity.

Disclaimer: I am a diehard Yankees fan. After the infamous Red Sox comeback during the 2004 ALCS, I refused to go to school for several days and struggled to keep down solid food. That series single-handedly ruined my childhood and left me more emotionally damaged than any dysfunctional relationship could have. To this day, if you say the name "Dave Roberts" around me, I will curl up into the fetal position and start shaking uncontrollably until someone slaps me in the face and reminds me that it's 2011. I'm not telling you all this so that whenever you see me on Grounds you will yell "Dave Roberts" at me and laugh when you see that I wasn't really exaggerating - please don't - but rather so that when you read this next sentence, you realize just how hard it is for me to say it.
