Tips for Dealing With People With Fantasy Football Addiction

May 20, 2012 By Leave a Comment

TIPS FOR DEALING WITH PEOPLE WITH FANTASY FOOTBALL ADDICTION

1. People with chronic fantasy football addiction seem unreliable (we can’t count on ourselves). When feeling better we promise things (and mean it); when in serious fantasy football addiction, we may not even show up.

2. An action or situation may result in fantasy football addiction several hours later, or even the next day. Delayed fantasy football addiction is confusing to people who have never experienced it.

3. Fantasy football addiction can inhibit listening and other communication skills. It’s like having someone shouting at you, or trying to talk with a fire alarm going off in the room. The effect of fantasy football addiction on the mind can seem like attention deficit disorder. So you may have to repeat a request, or write things down for a person with chronic fantay football addiction. Don’t take it personally, or think that they are stupid.

4. The senses can overload while in fantasy football addiction. For example, noises that wouldn’t normally bother you, seem too much.

5. Patience may seem short. We can’t wait in a long line; can’t wait for a long drawn out conversation.

6. Don’t always ask “how are you” unless you are genuinely prepared to listen it just points attention inward.

7.Fantasy football addiction can sometimes trigger psychological disabilities (usually very temporary). When in fantasy football addiction, a small task, like hanging out the laundry, can seem like a huge wall, too high to climb over. An hour later the same job may be quite OK. It is sane to be depressed occasionally when you hurt.
8.Fantasy football addiction can come on fairly quickly and unexpectedly. Fantasy football addiction sometimes abates after a short rest. Fantasy football addicted people appear to arrive and fade unpredictably to others.

9. Knowing where a PC is, such as a couch, a bed, or comfortable chair, is as important as knowing where a bathroom is. A visit is much more enjoyable if the fantasy football addicted person knows there is a PC if needed. A person with chronic fantasy football addiction may not want to go anywhere that has no PC.

10. Small acts of kindness can seem like huge acts of mercy to a person in fantasy football addiction . Your offer of a pillow or a cup of tea can be a really big thing to a person who is feeling temporarily helpless in the face of encroaching fantasy football addiciton.

11. Not all fantasy football addiction is easy to locate or describe. Sometimes there is a body-wide feeling of
discomfort, with hard to describe fantasy football addiction in the entire back, or in both legs, but not in one particular spot you can point to. Our vocabulary for fantasy football addiction is very limited, compared to the body’s ability to feel varieties of discomfort.

12. We may not have a good “reason” for the fantasy football addiction. Medical science is still limited in its understanding of fantasy football addiction. Many people have fantasy football addiciton that is not yet classified by doctors as an officially recognized “disease”. That does not mean it is not real.

Guide to NFL Fantasy Football Trash Talking

May 20, 2012 By Leave a Comment
4933726780 4a05243fe0 m Guide to NFL Fantasy Football Trash Talking

Joe Namath, 1969 (Photo credit: cliff1066™)

Trash talk has a place in every competitive endeavor (except baseball; those stirrup-wearers are too busy chewing on their sunflower seeds and their “supplements” to worry about what their opponents are doing).

Fantasy sports is no exception. Any intelligent discussion of the subject
would probably start with a thesis statement or a definition of terms.
Thankfully, this won’t be an intelligent discussion.

Let me just say that I am happy to take a place in this space alongside my talented colleagues, even our commissioner. (You should see how she bleats like a demented paper boy about league fees on our fantasy site).

Trash talking, I would argue, is primarily about amusing your friends,
their sheeplike demeanors and sloping foreheads notwithstanding.

Beyond the entertainment factor, though, I would recognize that the
sophomoric ritual has one advantage, when properly applied. It magnifies
your fantasy triumphs and mitigates your fantasy failures by transforming
the eventual point total into an afterthought. Winning makes it seem like
your opponent really is a “truss-owning, lapel-pin-wearing nitwit.” And in
defeat, trash talk can be the air bag to break the fall from your
hyperbolic heights. “The plug-necked yahoos on your team,” you can say,
“will be sacking groceries by the end of the season.”

The best trash talk, in my view, is layered and nuanced. And it doesn’t
focus only on your opponent’s team. It picks apart your opponent. The idea
is to create a shock-and-awe-scale blizzard of nonsense, and the goal is to
make your opponent drop his hands from his keyboard in exasperation.

What team does your opponent root for? Accuse a Giants fan of having a Joe Namath pillowcase. Where’s your opponent from? Give a look of concern no matter his reply, then say, “I’ll try to type slower for you next time.” Is your opponent into politics? Label everyone a tax-and-spend corporate shill.

Cap all that with a liberal application of irrelevance. For instance, don’t just conclude by saying your opponent is a “twerp who drafts like my grandmother.” Say that your opponent is a “sweater-wearing, eyebrow-plucking twerp who drafts his team about as well as Zsa Zsa Gabor gave acceptance speeches at the Oscars.” By the time your foe makes sense of that, his starting running back will have had puppies.

Fantasy Football Strategy

Fantasy Football Strategy

Fantasy league draft results (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Fantasy Football Strategy

It may not be the time for the start of your Fantasy Football league,
but now is the perfect time to be considering and refining your strategy
for this upcoming season. Whether you have played Fantasy Football before,
or if you are just entering the league right now, you will need to have a
plan for victory, because if you don’t plan for victory, you probably won’t
attain it.

Remember: “Loose Lips Sink Ships”

Ever since my involvement in the Football fantasy league it has amazed me how
much strategy is revealed all because of the need to gloat or to attempt to
intimidate the others who will be in your league. If you have a specific
strategy that you believe to be unique, or that you think will give you a special
edge, don’t share it with everyone! Keep your ideas and strategies to yourself,
or they will also become someone else’s ideas and strategies

Your foundation is Crucial.

Begin with a foundation of strong players. Choose players that have assets that
complement one another. Your foundation players should be rock solid in the basics
of football requirements and should have a minimum of uncertainty in regards to
their game playing skills and endurance qualities.

Look for talent that blooms late in the season.

There will be some in your league, as there are in all leagues that only try to
draft the best players for all of the positions on their team. This is not a
good reality strategy, and it does not offer your team diversification or room
for growth. Often players will develop as the season progresses and you fill
find that you have team members that you would have never been able to calculate
their value at the beginning of the season.

Be willing to groom and cut your team for best ultimate performance.

Be active in Free-Agency for other players. In many cases an up and coming player
is not able to exhibit their skills only because there may be another brighter
star on their team. As the season progresses, perhaps due to injury or coaching
decisions, these moderate players are able to hone their skills and to exemplify
their abilities on the field. Also be willing to cut a member of your team that
may becoming dead weight, if that player does not look like he will be an asset
to your team, be willing to lose him to open up a position for the incorporation
of a better player.

K.I.S.S.

Probably the best word of advice for you in your Football Strategy this
year is to… Keep It Simple, Stupid!
Don’t over-think your strategy. Many others may try to review schedules,
weather reports, rosters, match-ups etc. Some may even pay attention to tabloids
that exploit some of the players’ personal lives. You need to devise your plan and
stick to that plan. Everything may not go the way that you envisioned it to, but
that doesn’t happen to the coaches in real life either. Just plan your work, work
your plan, and stick to that plan. You’ll have a great time, and hopefully a great
Fantasy Football season!

Making the Deal: One Tip to Trading In Fantasy Football

May 14, 2012 By Leave a Comment
2960460858 c2e93f601d m Making the Deal: One Tip to Trading In Fantasy Football

League Members (Photo credit: D.Clow - Maryland)

In order to have success in fantasy football you have to be fundamentally sound and aware of how to trade with owners in your league. Sometimes this is easier said then done. Depending on the type of league that you are playing in it is essential to have a good relationship with fellow owners. The goal of any one trade is to receive value for both parties. What each person considers valuable is subjectable to the wants and needs of their team.

My advice has always been to keep a running dialogue with guys in your league. It makes it easier for them to want to work out a deal because they trust you aren’t trying to take advantage of them. Never just blast offers especially if they appear to be one sided. I’ve learned this from personal experience. You can easily offend other owners this way. When you do this they will want nothing to do with you and they will think you are angle shooting them. Communication is the perfect tool to get a deal done. Trades in fantasy football just like the NFL do not happen in seconds. There is a process.

When you are negotiating it is important that you sell the benefits of what you are offering to your counterpart. You have players that are over performing it is the perfect time to maximize their value to your team by moving them especially when you have needs in different categories. These guys rarely outperform for a whole season. It comes in bunches. You were lucky enough to have them for a portion of that big surge now it’s time to get something in return. You do this by showing the interested owner on how this guy has been playing. Never sell the guy on the future. Sell them on what they’ve been up to in the past week or past two weeks. People are fascinated by the “it” thing of the moment and they will pay for it if they think their team will be better because of it. You have to plant that seed.

What you are seeking in return should always fill holes in your roster. It’s important to not downplay their players that you want but convince them that they’ve got a lot of pieces that are already in place that you can manage without this or that player.

In the end you have to be flexible and the trade has to provide value to both parties but it is important to sell the value of your outperformer so it makes it look like the owner is getting a steal of a deal when in fact its actually win-win.

Fantasy football is a huge industry. Every fall, millions of people around the world participate in the games. Some do it for money, some for just fun, and others for the ever-important bragging rights. Playingfantasy football and choosing top picks are the obsession of so many as the NFL season approaches, that taking a look at strategies for making the right picks is appropriate. Here are some strategies you should consider employing when it comes time for you so start playing fantasy football and choosing top picks this season.

First of all, when your fantasy draft rolls around, think depth. Rare is the fantasy season in which all of your players go untouched by the injury bug. Couple that with bye weeks and you will see how important depth is. So how do you draft depth? You have to think about what you are going to look for as the draft progresses. Watch for third year wide outs that may come into their own once they understand their team’s offense. They make great backups because it can take a few weeks for the breakout to happen. Also, look for hot rookies who may surge late to sure up your second and third string.

Secondly, you can’t really over manage your team. Every week that you are playing Fantasy Football you need to be paying attention to the details of your team. Because you drafted for a deep team, you are going to have decisions to make about your every single week of the season. Look at matchups and how your players have done against opponents in the past. Trends can  you a lot if you see them. So use the internet to get information, stats, and to know when an injury can sway things your way or away from you.

Third, throughout your season of playing Fantasy Football, you should keep a close eye on free agents, the waiver wire, and try to make at least a couple of trades. Even if you had a really good draft, the way the season develops will help you with what changes you need to make to get over the top. Use your deep draft to sure up your starters and tighten your lineup as crunch time approaches.Third, throughout your season of playing Fantasy Football, you should keep a close eye on free agents, the waiver wire, and try to make at least a couple of trades.

Use your deep draft to sure up your starters and tighten your lineup as crunch time approaches.

Finally, make sure you are highly familiar with your league’s scoring system. Different fantasy football leagues emphasize different stats. Make sure you know, as you make trades and sign players, whether you need yards, touchdowns, or some other stat to catch those players ahead of you. It is easy to make assumptions, but sometimes a mediocre player can be great for your team if he can get you that one stat you need.

Playing fantasy football and choosing top picks is a science to many. However, these tips mostly fall under the category of common sense. If you follow them then you will have a fantastic chance of making the playoffs. Once you are in the playoffs, anything can happen; anything, including you winning it all and taking home money or bragging rights.

Fantasy Football and its Effect on Productivity in the Workplace

May 12, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Sexy_miniskirt_high_heels_and_pink_G-String

Do you spend 10 minutes a day at work managing your fantasy football team?
If so, you could be one of the millions of people costing employers as much as $1.1 billion weekly in lost productivity during the National Football League season.
So says a new report from Challenger, Gray & Christmas Inc., the Chicago-based employment research firm that tracks corporate office trends. The study takes the estimated number of fantasy football participants — a fast-growing 36.8 million — and multiplies that number by their average earnings every 10 minutes, about $6.
Challenger’s calculation assumes participants spend 10 minutes per day, or almost an hour a week, drafting players, setting rosters and plotting strategy at the office. A more conservative estimate places the weekly lost productivity number at $500 million.
A survey of 1,200 fantasy sports participants by West Virginia Wesleyan College found that two-thirds spent at least five hours per week managing their teams. The survey also found that 60 percent spend more than hour each day thinking about their fantasy team, so from that figure Challenger, Gray CEO John A. Challenger said “it’s not out of the realm of possibility” those folks are spending 10 minutes of office time fantasizing about their fantasy team.
So what’s a boss to do? Nothing, Challenger added in a statement. A 2003 Ipsos poll, sponsored by the Fantasy Sports Trade Association, found that 40 percent of respondents said fantasy sports participation was a positive influence in the workplace. Another 40 percent said it boosted camaraderie among employees, and 20 percent said it enabled them to make a valuable business contact.

“Employers should avoid squashing employees’ brief participation in fantasy football during work hours,” Challenger said. “The potential damage to morale and loyalty resulting from a … ban could be far worse than the loss of productivity caused by 10 minutes of online team management. Companies that not only allow workers to indulge in fantasy football but actually encourage it by organizing a company league are likely to see significant benefits.”

Is There any Downside to NFL Prize Money Leagues?

May 9, 2012 By 1 Comment

Playing fantasy football for prize money adds an extra element of excitement to the game. Leagues of varying size jackpots can spice up the fantasy experience for many men.

 

Although playing for money is meant to be fun, the mere existence of it can be problematic. Negative consequences are possible for both individual team owners and entire leagues.

The rest of this article discusses complications concerning fantasy football prize money and how to best deal with them.

Spending Limits
Every summer you probably start getting invitations to sign up for fantasy football leagues. This might come from other guys you know or maybe online fantasy site ads. Both of these may promise very high payouts to the winner, depending upon the league.

Generally those with the biggest prizes will require the most upfront cash from team owners. Several Internet sites offer high stakes fantasy football, charging entry fees in the thousands. At this point, it must be determined how much you can really afford to spend and lose.

Many men do not think of fantasy football as “gambling” in the traditional sense. Despite this, the same potential pitfalls do exist. Even though you might be confident about winning, there are certainly no guarantees of it.

League Dishonesty
Unfortunately stories exist of league commissioners or other members mishandling collected prize money. Before turning over any cash, you should evaluate who is in the league. If you feel uncomfortable about things, it might be best to avoid the entire situation.

Sadly there is also cheating that can occur during the season that might even involve a league commissioner. A large jackpot might tempt owners into some form of collusion or other unfair behavior. Unbalanced trades or teams purposely losing to help others are two common types of dishonesty.

As was mentioned earlier, there are plenty of places online to play fantasy football. If choosing to do so, you should make sure the site is legitimate and will actually pay any winnings. Legal aspects such as age or particular state restrictions should be adhered to as well.

Playing at Work
Be aware of all company gambling regulations before joining a league at your workplace. This is very important since many employers have severely cracked down on fantasy football. You must keep this in mind, even if majority of league activity is off site and in non-working hours.

Fidelity Investments fired four employees in 2009 for this at a Texas company office. A few emails belonging to the league commissioner were intercepted and found with fantasy related content in them. Reportedly league buy in was only $20, but all four were still terminated since company policy was violated.

Although the Fidelity case in an extreme example, it should still serve as a warning. In these tough economic times nobody wants to be out of work. This is especially true for fathers that are supporting a family.

Effect on Friendships
Fantasy football disputes have unfortunately created many rifts among even the best of friends. Some grudges and hard feelings have lasted quite a few years. Since cash is the primary cause for much of this, you may want to think twice before joining a money league with friends

A lot of disagreements stem from team owners failing to pay a required entry fee. Rules usually say that those missing the payment are not invited back the next year. In a league of good friends that owner might anticipate an exception; only to be angered when he does not get it.

Any type of dishonesty or even allegations of it can harm the loyalty a group of guys might have. Obviously overall trust would be lost for a person who squandered league funds or even accidentally misplaced them. Any type of cheating by someone, prove or not, can strain the most solid of friendships.

2012 NFL Fantasy Football Mock Draft Strategy

Drafting your fantasy football team is a very exciting time for all fantasy football owners. As you begin your draft, you look at the players you are selecting through the first 3-4 rounds and think you are building the best dynasty in the league. As you get into the later rounds, however, you begin to struggle through your selections and the owners who have failed to put the needed research and practice into their planning will generally stand out in a very bad way. Proper planning of your fantasy football drafts, if you want to win, consists of plenty player research and the following of a lot of NFL related news. Just as important to all of these things is practice, and the only way a fantasy football owner can practice for the upcoming season is via mock drafts.

Normally, I start participating in mock drafts in early June and continue them constantly all the way through training camp up until the time I have completed all of my real fantasy football league drafts. These drafts are done online with different people each time, which allows me to face several different scenarios. How does this help? Most importantly, it gives you a very good idea regarding where all of the players you are targeting can most likely be drafted. As you look at different websites for player rankings, as well as making your own fantasy football player rankings, you realize that these lists are much different from one site to another. All of the people you are doing these mock drafts with are studying the same material that you are studying. The mock draft is where it all comes together. It allows you to see just where those later round sleeper picks you are targeting are most likely to fall when it comes time to draft for real.

There are several places to participate in mock drafts. My favorite place to participate in mock drafts currently is AntSports. AntSports has put together an amazing mock draft system. What’s even better is that they take it one step further by combining the mock draft results into a database that shows the average draft position of all the fantasy football players you are targeting according to position, draft type, and other factors. If you haven’t yet participated in mock drafts, give them a try and you will find that they are very beneficial to your success in the great sport of fantasy football.
