If you're like me, your Sundays start at noon with the first NFL game and goes until 1030 when the Sunday night game ends. I do love football, but with the added incentive of multiple fantasy teams I find myself glued to a television almost all day waiting on Arian Foster to score another touchdown or Peyton Manning to throw for three or four. While earlier in this decade fantasy football almost seemed like a fad, it has become, with the NFL's help the 800 lb gorilla in the room. The is an entire channel dedicated to fantasy football stats and information, the bottom line of the game on CBS no longer says "NFL update", instead it says "Fantasy Update". Who you're starting has become a talking point at any function that you attend on Saturday and how you did is the focus on Monday. The NFL announcers on ESPN, FOX, NBC and CBS all mention fantasy points that people are earning while calling the game. And sportscaster commonly use who they draft in their regular daytime talk.
With all of this focus on fantasy football, is there money to be made on this new industry? If so, who can step in and control this area along with the NFL? Will you start paying for Fnatasy Football advice just as you pay for stock advice?? What does the future hold for fantasy football?
