Fantasy Football is played by hundreds of thousands of people across America. You pick players from the NFL and which ever teams players do better, then that team wins. You can play with friends or random people. Fantasy Football is a game of brains but mostly luck.

Before the season starts you draft your team. The draft can be snake, which means the person with first pick in one round will have last in the next. Or auction, which is when your are given two-hundred pretend dollars and you bid on the players. There is a channel on NFL Network called "RedZone." This is great for fantasy owners because it shows every key play in every NFL game going on including; touchdowns,interceptions,fumbles,and big gains of yardage. At the bottom of the screen there is a ticker which shows the top fantasy players of the day in each position, and the amount of points they have in a standard scoring league.

My league was a standard scoring league. Which means a quarterbacks get one point for every 25 yards thrown, and four points for every touchdown thrown. A running back gets one point for every 10 yards rushed, and 6 points for each touchdown run. A wide reciever gets one point for every 10 yards recieving and 6 points for each touchdown reception. Same with a tight end.

Fantasy football is a game of brains and certainly luck. This year I won my league because i was smart at drafting but I also got lucky when i picked up players from free agency, right before they started to do good. Fantasy football is a fun game for people of all ages.
