Can someone explain the whole fantasy football thing to me? I really want to do it this year but I don't understand what to do. Is it just for the NFL or is there fantasy football for college? I know more about the college teams.
i think they might have it, but ive never played and i dont know where you would go. ESPN, maybe?
You basically have a draft, everyone in your league (usually 10-12 teams) is arranged in a draft order that goes 1-12 in the first round and then 12 back to 1 the second, 1-12 the 3rd, and so on. Each team manager picks players who he thinks will be successful, and the same player can only be on one team, for instance, 2 teams can't both have Larry Johnson on their fantasy rosters. Once positions are filled (usually you must have a QB, 2 RB's, 2 WR's, a TE, a kicker and a defense) then that's your team. You have bench players to substitute in as well. Whoever is in your starting lineup accumulates points for your team based on how they do in real life.
That's basically the way it goes.
