Fantasy sports

by Habitual Perfectionist » Sat Sep 18, 2004 1:19 am

Does anyone on the boards do fantasy sports? I love fantasy soccer...tried my luck at SuperSelector too....had a good run in its first life...but once they reintroduced it, the magic was gone.



If there are some more people interested, we could plan for our own FH fantasy league. These could be run on....



Soccer :

The English Premier League

The Spanish Primera Liga

The Serie A

The Champions League



Cricket :

The Upcoming Aussie Tour and Tri Series

According to http://www.dictionary.com, Fantasy sport means any sports competition with imaginary teams which the participants own, manage, and coach and with the games based on statistics generated by actual players or teams of a professional sport.



For example, if we are running Fantasy Premier League here, each player playing in the real Premier League is assigned some value. Each participant in the fantasy league is given a sum of money (imaginary, ofcourse). The participants can then pick their team by buying players.



Based on the performances of their teams in the real league, participants in the fantasy league get points. These points can be used for transfers. There is generally a limit on the number of transfers a participant can make.



Other additional stuff like ownership of stadia, TV rights etc. can be added to the league to add more complexity to it.



Overall, its fun.

Hey HP, have you ever played Championship Manager?



Try it out, thats the king of fantasy Soccer. This game has more Gaming Widows associated with it than any other.
