A series of comic books that have existed in one incarnation or another from the 60s to the present.
Founding members included Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, and Aquaman, though DC likes to re-write history and past founders have been changed to exclude Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, including Black Canary, Moon Maiden and Triumph instead.
There have been three main series of Justice League of America comics with many spinoffs, including international branches, rotating teams, and even a black ops league. The Justice League formula tends to be this: Popular heroes team up in the beginning, there's some internal conflict in the team, and the team separates and reconstructs with some new obscure members. As the comic goes on, the reconstructions occur more and more often, until finally the comic is full of people you don't know and it gets canned and restarted quickly.
There is also a Justice League Unlimited comic book, proving that it is possible to sell a comic book, that is based on a show, that is based on a comic book.

Predecessor to fantasy sports, created during the Depression as a diversionary pleasure. Name is derived from the fact that the leagues are half-assed and ill-conceived, and quickly "tossed" out to be used by friends and acquaintences. Often involved wrestling or grappling activities, although tosa leagues can even include sports such as tennis or skeete-shooting.

One who participates in more than three fantasy sports leagues in one season.
For example, during football season, you invite someone in your fantasy league, and they are in 12 different leagues. They only follow one or two, leaving your league with a team that does not make any transactions.
The team, in the meantime, sits there in last place, with injured players, bad players or dead players in the starting lineup.

Matt- Wow. Craig is such a league whore. This is his 18th fantasy league for football.
Dan- Yeah, his team is just sitting there in last place. He hasn't made a move in four months. His starting pitcher is Daryl Kile!
