Boasting of charlatanism; not really in your best interest.

Hyperbole won't save you I'm afraid, the analogy still falls flat on its face. We're talking an order of magnitude difference versus a few milliseconds. It's not even remotely close to an apples to apples comparison. Not sure why you're struggling to grasp this simple concept.

It isn't anecdotal to suggest that people buy video game consoles for video games; not NFL apps available already on a multitude of other services that are much cheaper. That's called common sense. Just as you don't buy a phone for the alarm...

Again you apparently dont have a DirectTv box. The simple sports app to get scores takes over a minute to load sometimes. They are really unusable.  What we have seen with the Xbox One is that the fantasy app loads in moments. So minutes to miliseconds.  Not a few miliseconds compared to a few more milliseconds like you claim.  My boasting was based in my success being in a business that requires logic to be successful and thats all. 

Many of us are looking for more than a video game console. We have grown up and are looking for a total entertainment system. I see no reason to waste all the power in todays systems when we arent playing games.  Yes I could track my Fantasy team with a phone/tablet/laptop beside my, but why should i have to so I can spare the precious console from doing anything more than playing games. Love my video games, but not everyone in the family does.  My wife for instance couldnt care less (Yes anecdotal forgive me), but she loves the media apps of the Xbox 360, yet finds navigating between DirectTv box, Blu Ray player, Xbox 360 more than cumbersome.  Dont even ask me what it is like when my parents visit and watch our children.  

NFL Sunday Ticket offerings include player tracker with real-time scores and stats. The only leap from this point to fantasy league is your brain. 

The NFL fantasy football app is different from my understanding and not directly involved. To which are you referring? 

"Many of us" - another logical fallacy is attempting to speak for others. While I understand your personal appeal to the device, this in no way provides any logical argument that it's anything other than atypical. Most people know how to press the input button on their remote to switch between devices, I'm sorry your wife is completely incapable of rather simple tasks.
