FIRST Fantasy Football

[Jim Giacchi]

For those of you who don't know what it is Fantasy Football is a game based on statistics of real NFL players. At the beginning of the season which in this case is August 31 at 5:30 a live draft will be held. Each player chooses (I'm 75% sure) 14 players to be on his team. Than each week the teams are paired off against each other. The stats for the players you choose are used for scoring. For certain feats a player is given a certain number of points. For scoring a touchdown, gaining certain number of yards, kicking a field goal, etc. If your team's players points add up to more than your opponents you win that game and if you keep winning your games you'll be the champion of the league. For exact rules you can check out the official page on NFL.com but thats the jist of it.

And we only have three more open spots so grab while you can.

The best part is it ends in December right before that other little competition starts. ;-)
