![]() I had clout in that league as I was champ for a few years. I was a newly married man that worked from home, in a new city, without my league and my friends. I had kids, lost some of my “fantasy-flow” and went into fantasy football exile in Seattle. I didn’t like the “change” so I left the league. That’s where I drew the line, as Panthers Steve Smith and Jets LaDainian were not valued KEEPERS. LaDainian lost his shine, and lost his keeper value, when our fantasy football league decided changed formats to a TWO PLAYER KEEPER league. I moved away from Ocean Beach in 2008, and still participated in the league for a few years after that. It was a $135 buy-in league with a great group of people that all lived in San Diego. I won the league for a 3 year stretch, and got paid pretty well from it too. He was the BEST keeper a Chargers fan could own, PLUS he was the premier fantasy footballer in all KEEPER league formats. Marvelous, Marshall Faulk (at the end of his career), but luckily I found a trade partner and won LT, LaDainian Tomlinson. I was granted the privilege of drafting Mr. ![]() I was in a local KEEPER league 2005 to 2010 in San Diego (The Ocean Beach Fantasy Football League) where you keep one player from the previous year’s roster. I eventually graduated from the silly Yahoo! leagues and moved onto CBS Sports Line ultra-competitive PAY leagues. I tried to get some information from my old teams, but not every roster is available, but I did find my team from 2001 (and I had Payton Manning, Terrell & LaDainian Tomlinson). It’s no exactly 100% accurate, but it’s pretty close. One of the bonuses of using Yahoo! Fantasy leagues they keep your Fantasy Sports Profile. I even wrote for a fantasy football advice website in 1990 and covered the Chargers and the AFC West.Ĭlearly Fantasy Football is the leader and I’m a diehard fan, and I’m entering my 15th season! 15 seasons, with 4 championship seasons (that’s a 27% rate of victory), but I haven’t won anything in 5 years. Back in the 90′s, I played every fantasy sport you could think of (including hockey, Nascar, Golf and way too much baseball). I’ve been playing fantasy football competitively since 1998. (BTW: I traded Dez Bryant away for Phillip Rivers around week 5, HUGE MISTAKE). Spiller and Dez Bryant would be as great as they really were in 2012. Sure, knowledge and education can help, same with league point formats, but no one can guess Russell Wilson or Alfred Morris would be amazing ROOKIE fantasy footballers, or that C.J. Fantasy Football is a guessing game, mixed with some prediction, injury and waiver wire pickups (but most of all TRADES). It’s like saying you are very good at the lottery (or Rock, Paper, Scissors). By no means am I a fantasy football master, guru, professional (or whatever you want to call it).
