NFL Football Players & Fantasy Football
Fantasy Football is a fantasy sports game in which participants (called "owners") are arranged into a league. Players are drafted by the owners or acquired via auction. This pool of football players is created from the real-life American football players (NFL) and then points are scored based on those players' statistical performance on the field. A typical fantasy league will either name the owner with the most total points or the most head to head wins at the end of the season, the winner. Most leagues set aside the last weeks of the regular season for their own playoffs.The games origins, are said to go as far back as the 1960s, but there is no conclusive proof from any person or group to support these claims. Fantasy football slowly gained a foothold in America as a hobby in the 1970s and 1980s, but didn't really take off until the 1990s.
Fantasy football has evolved in recent years from a mere recreational activity into a big business industry due to the explosion of the Internet. It's estimated that as many as 15 million or more consumers play fantasy sports, with that number reportedly growing at a rate of 7% to 10% annually. Fantasy sports have an estimated economic impact of US$1.5 billion within the industry and close to $4 billion total economic impact, according to FSTA research completed by the University of Mississippi. Fantasy football has surpassed fantasy baseball in popularity and is now the most popular fantasy sport in the United States. It is continuing to grow with countless new websites, magazines, and drafting software dedicated to fantasy football being released each year.
