The 2011-2012 fantasy football season was another great time as usual. Lots of high scores, comeback wins, devastating losses, surprise players and cash prizes. Hakeem Nicks was the star of the receiving show on Super Bowl Sunday, bringing in 10 catches for 109 yards. Eli Manning threw only 1 touchdown pass, which went to Victor Cruz, on 296 yards passing for the game.

Ahmad Bradshaw scored a rushing touchdown late in the game on top of 76 yards rushing. He almost pulled a Brian Westbrook and laid down right at the goal line, so that time would keep on ticking, but instead, at the last second, opted to fall backwards into the end zone instead.

Tom Brady threw for 276 yards, 2 touchdowns and a pick. Aaron Hernandez caught one of them and Danny Woodhead caught the other. It was a modest day offensively for both offenses, which means a lot of low scoring super bowl fantasy games.

Fantasy basketball games will be all we have now to hold us over until we get to baseball. LeBron James is currently the top ranked fantasy basketball player right now, although there are many other guys to choose from when selecting your lineup and going for the prize money. In salary cap fantasy basketball, I would have no trouble paying the high price tag for guys like Kevin Love, Dwight Howard, Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Andrew Bynum and Kobe Bryant.

When speaking of mid-level guys with mid-level type price tags, I would pay for names like Serge Ibaka, Emeka Okafor, Joakim Noah, Ty Lawson, Joe Johnson, Jrue Holliday, and Tony Parker. Lower price level guys who can still be productive lie in names like Jodie Meeks, Leandro Barbosa, James Johnson and Kenyon Martin.

Enjoy the rest of the 2012 fantasy basketball season. Weekly and daily fantasy baseball games will be here in no time. Until then, have fun grabbin’ boards and getting assists for cash prizes. As always, enjoy the week.

This was the first time I’ve ever seen the pro bowl yield fantasy results. The game of weekly fantasy sports is being taken to a new level and we are witnessing it. Brandon Marshall came from out of nowhere and stole the show with 4 touchdown catches after only scoring 6 times in the regular season. Marshall’s stat line finished at 6/176/4. Larry Fitzgerald also had himself a huge day finishing with 6/111/3.

Steve Smith showed up to play some ball as well. He had 5 catches, 118 yards and a touchdown. Jimmy Graham continued his scoring ways catching a touchdown from Drew Brees on 5 catches and 74 yards. Drew Brees was also magnificent with 246 yards and 2 touchdowns. Fantazzle will be bringing more fantasy football action once the super bowl starts, so get ready!

Weekly fantasy basketball is in full swing and Joakim Noah seems to be on a rebounding tear right now. I guess he didn’t like all the critics talking about how something might be wrong with him this year. After a slow start to the season, where he was averaging around 7 points and 7 rebounds a game (very un-Noah-like numbers), he has hit double-digit rebound totals in his last 6 games. His yearly averages are now up to 8.3 points and 9.1 boards a game, much more respectable and Noah-like, although I do expect those numbers to increase.

SUPER BOWL FANTASY FOOTBALL –> PLAY NOW!

If you missed out on the pro bowl fantasy football game, it’s not too late to join the super bowl fantasy football games. It is the first time ever we have seen this type of game format, so come and be a part of history and earn some cash prizes while your at it. As always, have a safe and productive week.

Another exciting week of playoff fantasy football in the books. Tom Brady led the day with 363 yards passing on top of 6 touchdowns and 1 pick. Drew Brees was next in line for top quarterback performers. He threw for 462 yards, 4 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Eli Manning was also solid once again putting up his stat line of 330/3/1 in a win against the heavy favorites, Green Bay Packers.

Arian Foster was the lone 100-yard rusher in week 19. He ran for 131 yards and 1 touchdown on 27 carries, but it was not enough to beat the Baltimore Ravens. On the receiving end of things, there were plenty of big time players in week 19. Vernon Davis was huge in his game against the Saints and came up big, play after play. Davis finished the day with 7 catches, 180 yards and 2 scores. Rob Gronkowski was magnificent also, recording 10 receptions for 145 yards and 3 touchdowns.

Hakeem Nicks made several game changing plays, ending the night at 7/165/2. Marques Colston went 9/136/1, Darren Sproles went 15/119/1, Andre Johnson 8/111 and Jimmy Graham 5/103/2. All of these players most certainly come with a high price tag in fantasy football playoff games and this is why.

On to 2012 fantasy basketball, Kobe Bryant is the number one guy right now in terms of fantasy ranking. He has scored at least 40 points in 4 consecutive games (4 out of the last 5). I guess the guy really does still have something noteworthy left in the tank. Kevin Durant is right behind him though with LeBron James ranked third. I would say these guys are definitely worth the hefty price tag in all fantasy basketball game formats.

Be sure to check out all our cool fantasy sports games at Fantazzle. Play to win prize money or play the free games for the fun of it. As alway have a safe and productive week.

The NFL regular season is finally over. It seems like it ended just as soon as it started. The fantasy football season isn’t over yet however, as we still have plenty of weekly fantasy football games for you to play at Fantazzle. Don’t hesitate to try out all the fantasy football playoff games. Fantasy basketball is now in full swing, so I’ll be talking about big time stats and performers in the NBA.

If your planning on taking part in our fantasy basketball games, you’ll want to get defensive-minded players into your lineup. On Fantazzle, blocks and steals are each worth 2 points a piece. DeAndre Jordan, Emeka Okafor, Javale McGee, Marcus Camby and Dwight Howard are all guys you will want to consider. They get tons of rebounds and blocks as well!

Guys that get a lot of steals like Chris Paul, Rajon Rondo, Andre Iguodala, John Wall and Jason Kidd will also have plenty of value. Remember, steals and blocks are worth two points each, so use it to your advantage. Try and get a bunch of block guys who can also score points and grab plenty of rebounds. Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard and LaMarcus Aldridge are good examples of that. Derrick Rose is also another example of a great fantasy basketball player in that he scores points in bunches and will also provide plenty of steal numbers.

Check in with us every Monday for the sports blog to see my advice on fantasy friendly players. When there is money on the line don’t hesitate to seek out some advice on who to take. Remember, when playing in any fantasy sports games, it’s always important to check out the scoring settings before selecting your team. Also be sure to listen to our weekly fantasy sports podcast where we always have a wealth of information to give you on fantasy sports players. Just take a look to the right hand side of the screen and you will see the podcast in green. Once again, have a productive week and let’s all enjoy the never ending fantasy sports season!

Hopefully everyone is having a great time with the fantasy games that we have to offer. Fantasy football is definitely our specialty and we’re excited about having a big and successful season. Keep on playing those games, keep on earning that fanstock and keep on winning that money. As always, Fantazzle will be offering a ton of weekly NFL and college fantasy football games.

We have updated our pick’em game as well. For example, you will now see more match-ups with the same players competing against each other in the game in real life, to be available for picking in the fantasy game. So for example, this week, the Dolphins and Browns faced off, so a match-up you might see to choose from in the pick’em game would be Daniel Thomas or Peyton Hillis. This allows for faster results in the scoring. Below is the upcoming schedule for this week’s games and their start times for the week.

Thursday:

College Fantasy Football Challenge – 8 pm EDT

College Fantasy Football Salary Cap – 8 pm EDT

Sunday:

Month Long Fantasy Football Salary Cap Game, Weeks 4-8 – start time: Oct 2, 1 pm EDT

Weekly Fantasy Football Salary Cap Game, Oct 2 – Oct 3 – start time: 1 pm EDT

Fantasy Football Challenge Game, Oct 2 – Oct 3 – start time: 1 pm EDT

The baseball season here at Fantazzle is not done yet either! We still have 2011 Fantasy baseball playoffs going on as well. Choose your team from the remaining playoff teams in the MLB. As always folks, enjoy the entire week and enjoy another week of fantasy sports here at Fantazzle.

Thanks, Fantazzle David

Good afternoon all,

The fantasy football season @ Fantazzle.com is looming ahead. We’re almost there. Just hang on for a little while longer and you’ll be drafting, playing and winning money in no time! Fantasy football games will be starting in September (games will be live this week, however) so stay on your toes and do your research until then. As for 2011 Fantasy baseball, we’re right in the mix of things. Managers have fallen out of contention and will be preparing for the consolation rounds, others have been strong all year and are preparing for playoffs, while the in-betweeners have been battling along, trying to maintain a .500 record, probably due to  nagging, weekly injuries like these below:

3B, Adrian Beltre/Texas Rangers: Beltre has been out for the past three weeks with a strained hamstring. He was supposed to be back sooner, but re-aggravated his injury during the rehab process. He did however, take the road trip with his team over the weekend, but did not play. He could be just one or two more weeks away from a return, so daily and weekly fantasy baseball leaguers, look elsewhere for third base help.

1B, Paul Konerko/Chicago White Sox: Regardless of PK’s supposed knee injury that resulted from him getting hit by a pitch last week, he seems to be hitting the ball just fine out of the DH spot, so Ozzie Guillen continues to keep him in the lineup even though he can’t run that well. Konerko is a tough soldier and has played hurt before. Last year he was hit in the face by a pitch and didn’t even leave the game. He got up, wiped the blood off with the training staff and jogged over to first base. Keep Konerko in your lineups and you can still expect him to produce as he did this past week.

2B, Brandon Phillips/Cincinnati Reds: Brandon Phillips had missed four starts last week after being hit in the elbow by a pitch on August 9th. He returned however, on Sunday and should be a safe bet going forward. Phillips is having another productive year in 2011 hitting .285/11/63. Consider those missed four starts just a minor bump in the road and play him in your lineups with confidence.

Remember everyone, Fantazzle’s Game of Gurus is starting again for this week so remember to join and test your knowledge against Fantasy’s best! More weekly and daily leagues are of course, always available as usual, so we hope you play and continue to have fun while making some money on the side. Remember to get your lineups in before 7 pm tonight!

Enjoy the week!

Happy Friday All,

We are on the horizon of possibly one of the greatest NBA Playoffs in recent memory, and to make the playoffs even more exciting will be offering several fantasy basketball playoffs games to our great community. For starters, we will be offering playoff-long fantasy basketball games that will allow contestants to pick a lineup that they trust will score the most fantasy points for the duration of the fantasy basketball playoffs. Choose your lineup once and never look back. Keep in mind who will play the most games as well as who will score the most points.

While the playoff-long games will be in our fantasy basketball salary cap format we will also be offering round-by-round games and daily games. The round-by-round fantasy basketball games will also be in our salary cap format and we will be offering daily fantasy basketball challenge games every day there are at least three games on the playoff schedule.

Daily Fantasy Hockey Playoff Games and Fantasy Baseball in Full Swing!

Each day there are at least three games scheduled during the fantasy hockey playoffs we will be offering daily fantasy hockey challenge games. Also, to create more games for our users, when there are less than three games on a given day we will be holding two-day contests (same goes for basketball). As long as there are at least three games scheduled between both the days (all different) we will have action.

Fantasy baseball games are in full effect at Fantazzle Fantasy Sports Games as well.
