Fantasy Football

Fall rolls around and the smell of grass fills the air, it is football season. For those of us whose playing days a long past (or never were) this means talking smack to our friends and playing the great new sport – Fantasy Football –I still call fantasy football new, because it is only in the past five to ten years (and the advent of the internet) where is has become a huge business. I have been running two leagues, one for about 6 years and the other for 3. The thing about FF is it allows you to0 enjoy the game in a totally new way. Following players and seeing the difference in a “meaningless” field goal, remembering the reverse point play from a couple of years ago where the possession of the ball changed twice during one play and it messed up almost every leagues scoring.

For some people their FF league is deeply important and the competition gets really heavy, for us in both of my leagues it is about beating you family and friends in a game, just like Monopoly or Risk. But you can do it from long distance.

For those who have never tried FF, give it a run, but look to see the type of folks in your league. If you’re in it for the fun, be sure you’re in a league that takes it that way. Be ready to bring the SMACK.
