Fantastic New Fantasy Football League Ideas

Fantasy Football league ideas have been coming across my desk over the past 34 years of play, and many of them, I have personally instituted in some of my leagues. They're awesome! Back in my day, we had to wait until Saturday to watch cartoons. (It was inhumane!) And we'd get detention for passing notes …

1992 Fantasy Football Rankings Cover-2

I’ve been playing Fantasy Football for over 20 years now, and I still have magazines dating back to the early ’90s. Here are the 1992 Fantasy Football Rankings from the 1992 Fantasy Football Index Magazine that I got at a local grocery store back then. I thought I’d start posting these old rankings and cheatsheets …

1997 Fantasy Football Rankings Cover

Think back with me now, as you get ready for your 1997 Fantasy draft, and you’re looking over your 1997 Fantasy Football rankings from whichever magazine you grabbed that month. Think back with me about when you were wondering what the NFL was going to be like with no team in Cleveland or Houston for …

super bowl party nerds

An old football-watching buddy of mine emailed me a few years ago reminiscing about a bad Super Bowl party or two that we had been to together. Tom reminded me of the time my brother-in-law invited us over to his house for the '99 Super Bowl (Falcons and Broncos), and then when we got there, …

AGA---Most-Interesting-Fantasy-Football-League-Ever

Back in the early 2000s, I got hooked up with a couple Fantasy Football writers that wanted to start a new league with me.

Bo-Jackson---Bo-tterfly-Effect---Score-Football-Card

Every now and then, I’ll come across a sports story that I assume everyone around me is familiar with. Then I realize, I’m an old bastard, and the guys around me are mostly in their 20s. So then I have storytime. It’s like when your grandpa tells you about the Heidi Game. I also figured most …

Fantasy Football auction strategies

A Fantasy Football auction can get your blood flowing and they are much more intense than regular straight drafts. If you haven’t tried one — or if you haven’t done one in a while — get on it! Now, they even have auctions on Fantasy sites like ESPN, MyFantasyLeague.com and CBSSports.com, which we’ll get into. …

CHAMPIONSHIP has arrived and if you are in the championship congratulations and best of luck! If you are not however, like myself you will likely be looking to do some Discount Diving in DFS this week. I would normally apologize for the disastrous lineup I submitted and discount plays from last week, but I won't …

It is sad, but exciting at the same time. The fantasy championships are among us, and some of your leagues are already finished. It has been an exciting season, and if you’re in the championship, a successful one for you. However, there is one more week, and that causes for you to finish the job, …

playoffs2

Let's go Discount Diving for FanDuel once again. Sure,  it is the PLAYOFFS in seasonal formats everywhere but not on FanDuel. Every Week is new and important in daily fantasy sports and this week is no exception. Plenty of fantastic match-ups, surprise injuries, and even worse game time decisions that will make setting lineups extra …

The Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings should help you with those very difficult lineup decisions! Most likely, you’re not struggling with who to start at quarterback, tight end or kicker. But …
