Fantasy Football Open Championship—Big Bucks
Why I do not normally endorse fantasy football games I recommend that you check this one out. Fantasy Football Open Championship has been around awhile, so many of you are familar with it, but it is well worth the visit. FFOC offers a $1,000,000 top prize. $300,000 in cash and rest over the next 14 years. However, it is one of the most fun leagues to play in not only because of the prize, but also because each week means so much.
Fantasy Sports Optimizer offers two great fantasy tools to help in this league. The Live Cheat Sheet is a must to get you started fast and the weekly addition of Data Sense aids you in your weekly player selection. The rules for this game are unique, so it is important to read and understand them carefully. They make the use of the Live Cheat Sheet even more important.
What everyone loves about fantasy football is the fun of it. It starts with the prep work for selecting your team and builds from thereon. I remember back 15 years ago when I had my first roto team in the CDM league now known as Fanball, and it was done on the phone and through the mail….no internet.
My first team featured Jerry Rice, Barry Sanders and Troy Aikman. In the first week, Rice and Aikman got hurt and Barry had the worst game of his career. I was last in a league of 25 and I could not believe the standings when I received them in the mail. I waited all week to see my results, knowing that they would be poor, but last was well… overwhelming. It was not a great start to a fantasy career, but my pride refused to accept defeat. I finished 13th that year in my league and in the middle of the overall league. Where was FSO when you needed them?
The fantasy football season is almost upon us and player selection, drafting tools and positional analysis aids are getting ready to go. Mock drafts are important for the novice, and fun for all. Plan on taking part as soon as you are ready.
This season promises to be a great one, with numerous players moving to new teams, double headed running back combos all over the league, hot QBs and crazy receivers. Plus lots of prizes, including the big one on FFOC. Good luck to all and I hope you finish right behind Sweetness, after all second place isn’t so bad!!!!
Go Bears!!!!!
Ryan, I found out about this a few days later. Its in a blog a few weeks later. I talked to someone that has some inside knowledge and he said that it was a Canadian outfit who “decided to take this year off and review the format.” I like your explanation better. Go Bears!!!
