Fantasy Sports Dish Going Offline

Filed Under (misc) by Lightfoot Simmons on 13-11-2008

I wanted to let all of my readers know that the blog will be offline for a bit as I tend to some health issues with my parents. Currently, there’s just not enough time for me to blog about fantasy sports when all available hours are spent at the hospital. Hopefully, I will be able to blog again here soon. Please be sure to keep my family in your thoughts and prayers! As always, thanks for taking the time to read my blog!

Sincerely,

Lightfoot Simmons

Fantasy Sports Live - Rewriting the Rules of Fantasy Sports

Filed Under (misc) by Lightfoot Simmons on 09-11-2008

Tagged Under : ,

A few weeks ago I came across a unique fantasy sports website, Fantasy Sports Live. Why are they unique you ask? Fantasy Sports Live combines fantasy sports with poker. To me, this is a fantastic idea as most people who are into fantasy sports are usually involved in “paid” leagues of some sort resulting in some financial prize should they win their league.

How FSL Works

At FSL, you can participate in daily fantasy sports contests of skill as they offer a variety of fantasy sports contest structures and sports including football, baseball, basketball and more for your enjoyment. Just like with poker, you have an entry fee, a total prize amount and sometimes a cap (i.e. pot limit). For example, today they have a contest called “Heads Up Week 10″ where 2 managers can pay $5.50 to go heads up against each other for a prize of $10. For this contest there’s no salary cap so you just have to pick the best possible players that you think will outscore the other manager’s team of players so that you can win the $10 prize.

My FSL Experience

Now once I found FSL, I decided to play in a contest so I could give it an accurate review since I liked the idea that they were providing their users. The contest that I decided to do was to compete against other sports blog owners in “Blogger Battle Week 1″ that had a buy in of $11. There were a maximum of 10 managers that could enter to win the total purse of $100; 1st: $50, 2nd: $30 and 3rd: $20. The salary cap was $950 and you had to choose your players while staying underneath that cap. I ended up falling from the #2 spot to finish 3rd for the Week 1 contest, but at least I won $20. Anytime you finish in the money it’s a win-win situation.

Conclusion

If you’re into fantasy sports like I am as well as poker, then I highly recommend playing on Fantasy Sports Live. If you decide to play on FSL let me know how your experience was and maybe we can go heads up sometime!

Please Note: This is a non paid review.

SEOmoz Mozball Fantasy Basketball League

Filed Under (basketball) by Lightfoot Simmons on 04-11-2008

Tagged Under : , , ,

Well this past weekend I had my another fantasy basketball draft; this time it was for our SEOmoz Mozball Fantasy Basketball League. I totally messed up my draft as I thought the draft was 1 hour later than it actually was supposed to draft as well as I forgot to import my draft settings from my previous fantasy basketball league. Since it is only a 10 team fantasy basketball league it didn’t hurt me too much. I was helped by the fact that a few managers were not present during the draft. Here are the results of our draft:

I wanted to take time and post the results from our Twitter Basketball Experts fantasy basketball league on Yahoo Sports! There are 20 teams in this league so by the last few rounds there were slim pickings. I kept asking myself, “Who is this guy and will he help me out any?” I think I did alright in this league’s draft as I was able to get a few picks before they made it back to other certain managers. What do you think of my fantasy basketball draft?
