The very first Fantasy Strategery Started Sit'em. (And maybe the last...)

There's a fine line between Fantasy Football and Sports Betting. Hell, if it wasn't for Daily Fantasy, there would be no online sports betting. True story. Listen as Joe shares where he gathers his data for both. Plus, Whiffle Ball Tony and over/unders.

Each year, countless hours are spent by team owners looking for that one sleeper, the diamond in the ruff. Hate to say it, but, I've got bad news for you. Fantasy Football sleepers only exist in the Daily Fantasy world. Reason being, experienced players set 100+ rosters at a time which are comprised of every potential sleeper possible. Each roster is unique, like snowflakes, fingerprints and potato salad. Which adds to the credibility of my point; Fantasy Sleepers aren't real. Statistically, there's a better chance of you seeing the Loch Ness monster eating your high school sweetheart than finding a fantasy sleeper. 

There is, however, the Fantasy Snooze Button. Alarm goes off. They're not awake, it's more like they aren't asleep. You hit the snooze button and wait for them to wake up.

Usually about 9 minutes. 

New friend Matthew joins Fantasy Strategery and helps set the stage for the first actual Fantasy Football discussion. Real talk about players to target, players (and teams to avoid, what teams are a mess and how, contrary to popular opinion, the Hard Knocks "bump" is a fallacy built on ignorance. The discussion even touches on sports betting, turf monsters and Cobra Kai. And just because we like you, we even offer an introductory class about "Mitigating Risk" to utilize as your draft edges closer.

The first ever double discussion show! Joe’s daughter Sidney, an unapologetic Seattle Seahawks fan, was in-studio to discuss Russel Wilson joining the Broncos. She explains how the trade might challenge her loyalty and how much she is looking forward to the first Monday Night Football game. Sidney even talks about what she knows (and doesn’t know) about Fantasy Football.

My second guest is my good friend Scott of The Fantasy Profits Podcast. Together, Scott and I talk about everything from fantasy football, over/under predictions, sports betting and The Clash of The Titans. Scott even throws out an incredible business idea. Don’t steal it.

The only thing better than wanting to be right, is being right. I am the former, Ryan is the latter. In this rewind episode, I highlight where I was wrong about Derek Carr being a Hall of Famer, and where Ryan was not wrong. Does Carr have the tools for success and to exceed expectations this season? Absolutely. But, having those tools is both a gift and a curse. With the offensive weapons the Raiders added, Carr might just be playing for his career, let alone a starting job. For him, it's a make-or-break year. I also touch on why Aaron Rodgers is a first ballot selection into the Yam-Yam Hall of Fame. Blu on Earth? Really?

Camden joins the show to talk about the importance of being properly, even over, prepared. Details of his league's draft fiasco and how he was not only able to recover quickly, but was able to win his league! Whiffle Ball Tony makes his debut as we discuss how and who to draft, how to avoid overreaching for players and why I am wrong about Derek Carr. 

A look at the Average Draft Position for the top 24 Fantasy Football players. Where they got it wrong, where they got it right and I why I'm so smart.
