Ryan Reynolds and Chris Pratt trade blows on Twitter over their fantasy football league

Anyone who's ever tried fantasy football — or any fantasy version of any sport, for that matter — will know how hotly-contested it can get.

In a nutshell, it involves picking a team and scoring points based on how your players perform in real life. People take that stuff seriously too, and superheroes are no exception.

This year, various Hollywood stars — all of whom have to have appeared in a superhero movie to qualify — are competing in the AGBO Superhero Fantasy Football Charity League.

The league was created by Avengersdirector Joe Russo — who owns AGBO along with his brother — and fantasy football analyst Matthew Berry. You can watch the two of them discussing how it all came about here.

Unsurprisingly, Reynolds wasn't about to take that lying down.
