1. Get To Know Fantasy Football
You may be hearing the buzz about it about it, but what exactly is
fantasy football?
Well, fantasy football is basically a fantasy sports game where
participating players are called owners. These owners belong to a
particular arranged competing league. Each of these leagues earn
what is dubbed as fantasy points based on existing data and statistics
from the real life game of American football; known as the National
Football League. The real life data which the professional athletes of
the National Football League rack up is important in determining the
winner of a fantasy football game.
The players or owners of the league use real life American
footballers and they draft these players. The sources of this are the National Football League and
the National Collegiate Athletic Association.
Both the National Football League and the National Collegiate Athletic Association are sources
of the fantasy players for the owner of a fantasy football team.
The positions to be filled by the owner of a fantasy football team include a running back, a wide
receiver, the quarterback, the kicker, the defense and the tight end; a set up similar to real life
National Football League and the National Collegiate Athletic Association teams.
Based on real life stats and dependent on the performance of the players, a fantasy football team
can garner fantasy points which would reflect to the other football fantasy owners.
For example, a player in the form of a running back gets the much anticipated touchdown, then
that running back will earn, in the world of fantasy football, a determined number of points for
the owner of the player.
When the season ends, there will be a win-loss tally or record which will set out the league
qualifications or fantasy football rankings and this will turn into a playoff bracket.
Just how huge has fantasy football become? Well, most of the football leagues do put aside the
weekend of the month of the regular football season for a fantasy football playoff. This playoff
will be determinant of the fantasy football league's winner or champion for the season.
The amazing popularity of fantasy football is reflected in the fact that in 2009, twenty seven
million players of these enjoyable fantasy football league games rack up nine hours in a week to
play! Twenty seven million people enjoy the same fantasy football passion as you!
