Its a fantasy sports site where you can either create or join leagues by the frequency of their games....NFL (weekly), NBA (daily), etc. You are like the owner/GM...you have a set budget and each player costs a certain amount...the better the player the more expensive they are and you have to form a team based on that budget...most are 60,000 and of course the better numbers they put up the more points you get...you can play for free and for money...there's leagues, head to heads, and tournaments....I usually play with friends and coworkers but I've entered in pay leagues too like $1 or $2 some are winner takes all and some have 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes....I'm addicted...if you're real good at fantasy sports you can enter the big money leagues like the $25 or $50 and win some big money

:ohhh:

I need to start getting into this.

What is the learning curve?

I'm a Sports knowledgeable breh, not a casual sports watcher. However, I've never done Fantasy Sports.
It isn't steep at all...its all about your knowledge....knowing players' strengths, teams defenses and offense, who flourishes in each type of set, who's hot, etc

You gamble money. You make your choices and go head-to-head against another person instead of just against Vegas odds. Your opponent can be lucky one week and you will take a bath. You could be lucky on your choices and win. So the problem is that you might be up against someone who has done more research and may have better choices than you. That means your odds of losing are higher than against Vegas numbers. Kind of whack. So, you "hope" to be paired up against a bo-bo.
