Title: Best Buy Fantasy Football...
Post by Philly on Dec 7^th, 2004, 12:38pm

I've been playing this Best Buy weekly fantasy football game all season. Each week you build a team with a cap of $240 (player values vary based on performance and opponent).

The reason I've been doing it is that they give away a bunch of prizes (including HDTVs, plasma screen units, etc.) each week to the top performers.

This past week I didn't get a lineup in while I was at work, and I didn't remember my login/password at home Sunday morning, so I figured I'd sit this week out.

Monday morning I noticed I could still add players to the roster, but only Dallas and Seattle players. So I had Hass and Testaverde at QB; JJones and Alexander at RB; Rice, D-Jax, and Keyshawn at WR; Witten at TE; Brown and Cundiff at PK; and Seahawks on D.

I just checked and I nearly scored enough points to get a prize. (I had selected Julius Jones as my top performer and they double the points for whoever you choose so he ended with 100 points by himself.) Not too bad for a last minute lineup.

That's the link if people are interested. Play it each week and see how you do. I'm currently ranked in the top 3500 or so for the season, but I've climbed up from being as low as 42,000 or so.

Thanks Philly, that looks like a cool game. I like the 'Talk Smack' option.

So do you run your money league using Exit 42 on Fanball.com ?

No, we've been using Si.com for a couple years now and like it there. We had tried a few other sites (we started out at Sandbox.com when it was free but it was terrible) but Si.com has been solid.
