Fantasy Football Playoff Time

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Hi all,

I’d imagine that ~90% of head to head traditional fantasy football leagues have started their playoffs or this last weekend will determine your playoffs.  We are here to tell you about Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Football Games. This isn’t a set your lineup advice fantasy football playoff article. If your looking for that, I recommend the following sites for that:

  • Fighting Chance Fantasy – three podcasts a week and these guys know what they’re talking about. Not only that, but they are entertaining to listen to. Not an easy combo for podcasts. Check out Fighting Chance Fantasy website or go to Fantazzle’s fantasy sports community page for the latest podcast.
  • Nova Fantasy Sports – great site for individual fantasy football player news and articles on fantasy football strategy. We use Nova’s info on Fantazzle’s fantasy football news section of our website.
  • Fantasy Football Librarian – Great fantasy football blog with links to just about every relevant start/sit site out there.
  • Fantasy Smack Talk - one of the better put together video casts about fantasy football.
  • The League – ok this is not a fantasy football tip site, but to follow up on my article on The League, give this sitcom a try. Funny funny stuff!

So now that I have some great fantasy football advice sites out of the way, here’s the main reason for the article. Given ~90% of traditional fantasy football leagues have started or are about to start their fantasy football playoffs that means there are a minimum of 60% of fantasy football teams without anything to do. Thats where Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Football Games come in. You can continue to play fantasy football all year by playing in our fantasy games. You can create new teams every week and continue to play fantasy football. Not only that, but Week 17 and the NFL football playoffs are right around the corner and at that time 99% of league seasons will be over. Fantazzle Football Games has got you covered by that as well. We’ll have games all the way up to the NFL Super Bowl.

If you haven’t tried Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Games yet, now is the perfect time to give them a shot.

Sign up now and play in our entry fee games or you can try out our Steve Smith (NYG) free fantasy football game.

Don’t let your fantasy football season end so soon, sign up now!

Fantasy Football Sitcom, The League – Why the Hate?

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

Being a president of a fantasy football games site, I got to stay on my toes with whats going on in the industry and what the voices out there say. In doing so, I have heard some ‘blah’ type comments about FX’s new 1/2 hour sitcom based on a fantasy football league called The League. My question: Why?

Its odd for two reasons:

  1. Fantasy industry guys should be thrilled about a show focused on fantasy football. Its a dream come true in getting even more recognition and respect of such a huge phenomenon.
  2. Its a GREAT SHOW!!!

Now most of the chatter hasn’t been harsh or critical, it has mostly been “Its ok” type talk . That couldn’t be further from my opinion of the show. To start, its funny. Take out any relationship to fantasy football and just look at the characters. They’re great and the dialogue is great. If you have any love for Fantazzle and/or the Fantazzle Blog, spare me 2:20 seconds and watch this clip. You can’t tell me that isn’t funny: from the song to the characters reactions. As far as I know, characters and dialogue are what make a show funny and this show has them both.

NOW, throw in the connection to fantasy football and I’m loving life! I think it would be great w/out it, but 100 times better with it. The one thing I was scared about with the show is the use of the typical fantasy football humor. You know TJ WhosYourDaddy type humor. Not so. Its fresh. The writers spent a lot of time figuring out how fantasy football can be funny and working on it with things that are not overused. Example: to figure out the draft order they did the typical pick a number from a hat, BUT that was only to know what kid you were backing in the potato sack race. If your league does something like this, I commend you. If it doesn’t, I guarantee there will be a lot more leagues doing something similar next year. It’s unique, thank gawd because that was my biggest worry about the show.

The only item I don’t care for much is the relationship/marriage type stuff. I’m sure its because I’m a single guy and can’t relate. Other than that, this show is great. Just like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, another comedy on FX, it pushes the envelope and I look forward to every episode.

If anyone from the show is reading this, send me an email, I’ll do anything I can to help promote the show. I love it that much.  If you haven’t seen it, give it a look. I believe you can watch past episode on FX’s website and it comes on Thursdays at 10:30pm ET. At least TiVo it if your out drinking at that time (which I’m sure the unmarried guys watching this show are probably are doing at this time). If you have already seen it and you were a ‘its ok’ type, I ask that you give it another shot. Help this show grow and be back again. This is a monumental moment for fantasy football and I urge you all to help that moment continue.

Free Fantasy Football Game Contest – Steve Smith Promotion Results

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

Hi all,

As many of you know, Fantazzle Weekly Fantasy Games has partnered with Steve Smith of the New York Giants in his 2010 Pro Bowl Contest. The winner of this contest will win 2 tix to the 2010 NFL Pro Bowl, hotel, airfare, and dinner with Steve. During the contest, Fantazzle is running free fantasy football games to win free gear from Steve Smith. The free contests will run for the next week and we already had our first free Steve Smith fantasy football game and winner this past week.

Congrats to hedrush who pulled off of a come from behind victory on Monday night. I wrote an earlier post about the leaders of the free fantasy football contest and those who had a chance leading up to NFL MNF. hedrush wasn’t even listed. He was way behind in points so he wasn’t on our radar. But like any given week, Drew Brees can change that very quickly. Couple him with Marques Colston and those 60 points put him over the top. hedrush finished with 147 pts with bdubya3 and BayMan3205 tying for 2nd/3rd with 139 pts each.

I wrote hedrush earlier to congratulate him and you couldn’t ask for a perfect winner as he thanked Fantazzle and added that he has Steve Smith in both of his traditional fantasy football leagues. It was fate from the beginning!

As an aside, the Steve Smith 2010 Pro Bowl Contest is well underway and we believe that Steve deserves a look for all of you Pro Bowl voters out there. He’s in the top 10 for fantasy football WRs and even higher in points per reception leagues (PPR). He deserves every fantasy football players consideration and he has been one of the best players in fantasy football this year. Numbers don’t lie.

So the first free fantasy football contest is over with 3 more to go. Make sure you sign up before the first NFL game on Sunday begins. Spread the word if you like the contest. If we get more entries into the game, we will expand the prize pool and have more than one winner. Its up to you all to get this done. We will run a referral promotion during the Steve Smith free games. Simply refer your friends and shoot us an email at stevesmith@fantazzle.com with your friend’s email and/or username and we will give you an extra prize if you win the free football game. You’ll win the prize of the week plus we will give you a $25 credit to your Fantazzle account to play all of our fantasy games. Help Fantazzle build our fantasy site and we will help you build your account balance. Nothing to lose and a lot to gain!

Sign up now for the Steve Smith free fantasy football game.

May the best fantasy player win!
