Hopefully by now you've caught the rest of my Points League Sleepers series, and buy into the great aspects of points leagues. You also know there are certain things that can make a player better in points leagues than say Roto leagues and vice versa. Steals are a huge category in Roto leagues. But because in most leagues they are only worth two points well… like in the MLB, they just aren’t as valuable. Walks don’t help you in Roto leagues but are a huge part of points leagues. Strikeouts lose you points and you get…

Over the last week or so I've extolled the virtues of points leagues and I'm in the middle of bringing you an entire series on points league values at every position! There are certain things that can make a player better in points leagues than say Roto leagues and vice versa. Steals are a huge category in Roto leagues. But because in most leagues they are only worth two points well… like in the MLB, they just aren’t as valuable. Walks don’t help you in Roto leagues but are a huge part of points leagues.

I went to my first real music festival in 2018. That’s right, I waited until I was 27 to attend my first festival. I had been to concerts before, but never an all-day festival. After drinking lots at an all-day country concert tailgate on Saturday, I ventured out hungover to the festival. The first performance I wanted to see was Third Eye Blind. They played all their hits, but looking around I noticed it was an older, more mature crowd. These concertgoers were experienced and enjoyed themselves, but the energy was down…

Fantasy Football flew by and you are probably sad. I’m here to tell you that while we, unfortunately, have to wait months for fantasy football, we can start getting prepared for Fantasy Baseball! If you are a veteran or a fantasy football player looking to expand your horizon I recommend points leagues! Not only are they most similar to football in that aspect, it creates rivalries and is simply easier and more fun to root for every night!If that sold you, well you’re in luck because I am going to bring you an entire…

We are finally here... Week 16! Way back in the summer when you started researching for your draft you did so with hopes of hoisting up your league trophy and exerting your dominance on all your league-mates. I know the feeling. In a home-league of mine that I have been in for over 10 years, I made it to the championship last year and made a public wager with my Fantasy BFF Frank Stampfl. Despite Todd Gurley doing everything he could... I lost and had to eat a peanut butter sandwich on YouTube. Side note: Peanut butter is…

Have your friends been telling you that you got lucky? That it would be them if not for . Well, chances are that you are playing in Week 15 and they are not! If you have made it this far you are among the elite of your fantasy league. That's right, the other six, eight, 10 or however many other owners in your league have been eliminated and are jealous. They all wish they were still playing in Week 15. Enjoy this moment and embrace the hate, cause it is only going to get stronger as you continue to chase down that league…

It is hard to believe, but the Fantasy playoffs are here! If you are reading this I think it is a safe bet to assume you have made the playoffs! I hope you took a quick second or two to enjoy making the fantasy playoffs, I mean we do play this for fun! If you haven’t already, take a second to do so now… ok, now it is time to once again focus on why we do this. That’s right… we do not play this simply to make the playoffs! We play this game to dominate and show everyone that we are the best! That is exactly what we will do…

Here we are folks, Week 13. This is where the men are separated from the boys. Those who will be competing for the Shiva, or whatever your league prize is, and those who will be sadly finding a new hobby on Sundays. You could be playing for a bye week or your playoff life, or perhaps not sweating at all because everything is wrapped up already. Or perhaps all three, as I am this week in different leagues. Either way, you want to end the regular season strong and enter the playoffs on a high note.Oh, and before I get into…

First off, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! Hope you enjoy whatever it is you choose to do on Thanksgiving and mainly I hope my Week 12 positional rankings help you continue your chase for a fantasy championship!I am a big fan of Anthony Miller this week. Not only does he face a Lions team that has struggled heavily against slot receivers but I think the move to Chase Daniels means more safe, shorter throws than with Mitch Trubisky. I expect Miller to see a lot of targets on Thanksgiving. He is the Bears receiver I…
