Initially
built by NASA to set lines for the Las Vegas casinos in the late 50’s
(who do you think funded the Apollo missions? The government? It was
the mob!), The Sin City Betbot 6000 calculated lines for over 30 years.
The Betbot was given various upgrades through the years, not always
with the best equipment, but he was very good at setting lines, and
living the good life. The
Betbot was de-commissioned in 1990 after San Francisco destroyed Denver
in the Super Bowl. The 45 point spread simply fried a number of the
Betbot’s wires and he retired. The Betbot was discovered by
Fantasysharks.com and retooled to give fantasy advice. He lives now to
help your team with deeper sleepers to start each week. Now, he’s joining the blogging game. As he says, “It’s about bleeping time!”
You asked for it, so now you've got it! Some of you have asked how your thoughts can be seen by thousands of readers on a daily basis, well ask no longer. We have again opened up the gates so that anyone can enter an article for all to see your name in lights. Are you passionate about your team? Let's hear about it. Do you have a humorous slant on a story in the NFL? Let's hear about it. Do you think the Patriots will fall apart after losing the Superbowl? Let's hear about it. We'll even accept baseball, hockey, basketball, racing, whatever!
Now that the NFL Draft is over, it is time to look at how you should go about drafting these rookies when your draft day arrives. The emphesis is on redraft leagues but you can also apply it to auction and keeper drafts as well.
As draft weekend approached, the Jacksonville Jaguars who fell just 6 quarters shy of the Super Bowl in 2007 had one main objective heading into the draft, find a defensive end at all costs.
Saving You $9.95 Walter Collazo, Fantasy Football Staff Writer Apr 29, 2008
I want you to put that magazine back on the rack. I just saved you $9.95. There are at least 15 to 20 Fantasy Football magazines available to the public these days. The more magazines that are out there, the more the information gets diluted and vague, leaving many owners short on relevant information...
Today's
installment will detail the guys you won't hear much about after draft
day, the guys on the lines; where they game is often won and lost. If
you have any questions/comments, see my thread in the Main forum – I’d
be happy to go further in depth regarding a specific player, ranking,
what I was thinking that specific day, etc.
Now sit back, grab your beverage of choice, enjoy, and then tell me how little of a clue I have.
I’ll be waiting.
Did someone forget to tell the Detroit Tigers that they were supposed to be good this season? Early signs aren't looking pretty for the boys of the Motor City. I've investigated the team that others believe has flatlined, and I think I may have found a pulse.
A Shark's Eye View Mark Chamberlin, Fantasy Football Staff Writer Apr 17, 2008
I have ranked 166 players in total available in this year's draft. In this installment, the first of three, I break down the QB, RB, WR, and TE positions.
For those that frequent here often you should know by now I’m not a big fan of Mock Drafts, I like rankings.
Mock
Drafts are all well and good if everything goes to plan, but if you’ve
ever watched the NFL Draft you know that’s simply not the case.
Picks like Ted Ginn to
Miami and Mario Williams to
Houston throw any Mock into a tailspin.
Well, I gathered all of the brightest minds in the Shark Tank and we did a good old fashioned NFL Mock Draft, and when that was finished I mocked every one of their picks....
Here comes a whole new crop of potential fantasy football studs. The NFL draft is right around the corner, but where should the top running backs rank on your fantasy cheatsheets for this coming season?
Ryan Grant of the Green Bay Packers averaged over 90 yards per game in his rookie season.
This puts him in some elite company, including the likes of
Barry Sanders and
Marshall Faulk, and modern marvels like
LaDainian Tomlinson and
Clinton Portis. If this small group of just about 20 guys is any indication, he has all but secured a starting spot on fantasy rosters for the next 3 or 4 years.
