Fantasy Football Costs Money!

Now I am a huge Fantasy Footabll person. I have been in a league with Contagion, Ktreva and a few others for the past few years.

It's fun an d allows us to talk smack and really take our love of football to the next level.

Now every year we do the free leagues on NFL.com (go show them some love!) but this year I decided that I was going to do something different. I wanted to instaed of having the draft for our teams online with everyone at their own computers, do it live in person at a location then put all those picks in the computer afterwards. I knew that it would cost a fee for this but like 30-40 bucks which most of the people in the league said they would pay like 5 bucks. THis would cover it.

Until I went on today and saw that it costs 130.00.

For fantasy football.

For real.

Wow.

SO now I am torn, seeing if people would pay like 10.00 ( and there are like 10-12 people ) or just going the free way again this year.

Who would have thought that fake sports could cost so much?

Good thing that there is still 2 months until the preseason. Time to save up.

Out of curiosity does the $130 at NFL.com get you anything that you don't get at the bazillion other fantasy football sites like Yahoo, etc that are cheaper and/or free?

Yes ALOT more. We had a problem with team names last year and couldnt change them, with this you can pretty much do what you want instead of having it all done for you. ALOT of customazation. 130.00 worth? maybe not but oh well

Becoming the particular administrator of the Fantasy Football money leagues is not an easy task. The times of day are usually lengthy. It's easy to control a bunch of wimps. And, the particular pay out, this is painful.
