It's Fantasy Football Time!
Ladies and gentlemen start your engines because we are getting dangerously close to prime drafting conditions. Here's a song to set the mood right.
Does Your Age Matter in Fantasy Football?
What if I told you that your age is huge contributing factor in winning your Fantasy Football League?
Players under the age of 25 hold a distinct advantage over their older counterparts. This mainly has to do with time management and the availability of time. For the most part younger fantasy owners have far less structure in regards to lifestyle. The youth are less likely to be employed and have far much more leisure time. Outside of basic chores such as taking out the trash and mowing the lawn they can dedicate their time to anything they so choose. With no children to supervise, feed or entertain, that’s more time to consume more live sports and more written media.
Sure I have purposefully omitted education requirements, one could argue that the time spent in school is equally hampering to the typical 8-hour work day. However, it’s difficult for the Bank Teller, Construction Supervisor or Landscaper to have meaningful amounts of free time to consume the same amounts of data that the un-obliged youth are privy to. The educational setting provides space for open discussions with a large pool of sports minded individuals. Meanwhile, the typical office environment will provide a handful or less of sports enthusiasts to interact with.
While the youth are provided with excess leisure time, the majority of their friends also are provided this luxury. In comparison to the workplace setting where your water cooler chats will be with people who suffer the same time constraints. While the adults can have any weekend slip away with family birthday parties, it’s not uncommon for the youths to spend their weekend toggling between Rotoworld and PornHub.
The youth have a distinct advantage, they can and should capitalize on it especially is there is an age disparity in the league. At the ripe age of 19 I won my first league, it was hosted by a website I’ll leave nameless and filled with mostly men age 30 and over. The combination of my time advantage and a bit of luck proved to make all the difference.

The Podcasts That Have Changed My Life
The podcasts that I listen to have been a life saver when it comes to learning on the fly without sitting down and forcing your face into a book. My consumption of Podcasts has exploded over the years and I highly recommend the below Podcasts, they aren't listed in any particular order but I did loosely sort them by category.
Business / Professional Development:
Entrepreneur On Fire John Lee Dumas
The Smart Passive Income Podcast
Tech News:
Comedy:
Sports:
You might be at the point like hey but what about sports?
Between the endless fire hose of Sports drama on ESPN Radio and WFAN I don't think it's necessary to download and dedicate more time to hearing the same news spun 10 different ways.
Podcasts have been extremely influential in my life, growth, sanity and development.
Considering the average American spends 38 hours per year in traffic, and closer to 90 if you live in a large metropolitan area. Source here: That's far too much time to waste listening to the latest gossip or the top 40 songs you already know the words to.
Time is too valuable to waste, send us your recommendations if you know of a great Podcast we should check out.
Thanks for reading!

What It Takes To Win Fantasy Football
There seems to be a big difference between what people think matters most when it comes to Fantasy Football. I hear things all the time from people like "If your draft well then you really don't need to make too many moves during the season". Another common misnomer is when people think that the key to winning is just to be lucky and avoid having your stars injured. But they are wrong too, there's a lot more going on than just avoiding injuries and drafting well. How about "It's all luck anyways, I won't waste too much time researching I'll just grab the hot players on Free Agency and let the rest work itself out." If you can't put the winning formula into one sentence then you are doomed to repeat in your losing ways. Success in Fantasy Football is a multifaceted game. Sure there's luck and skill involved, but there's also a lot of stuff that happens behind the scenes that most owners never pick up. To save you from another wall of text, I have created the "What it takes to win your fantasy football league" pie chart.

Fantasy Football: Watch Your Players and League Transactions Like a Hawk
Fantasy Football: Watch Your Players and League Transactions Like a Hawk Even When You Are Busy With Life
Here's a little protip that I have been using to help me keep track of everything that goes on in my Yahoo! fantasy leagues. Having status updates sent to me without having to incessantly check on my fantasy apps has been a life saver. Although it may seem crazy to have every little status update sent to you via SMS message. It has never been unbearable to receive a handful of updates a week that have saved my tail from time to time.
How did I set this up?
It's very easy and you don't even need to be tech savvy to accomplish this. I use a website called ifttt.com which can automate pretty much anything that happens in the online world. You can automatically save Instagram pictures to Dropbox, save quick ideas to Evernote or turn on and off the lights in your home.
The steps are pretty simple:
1. Sign up at

Fantasy Stereotypes: You Know Who They Are and How to Beat Them
Hey Guys,
Hope all is well in the shakeup of an offseason. There have been plenty of movers and shakers in both the NFL Power Rankings as well as some interesting depth chart issues. Don't even get me started on the prospect of Demarco Murray, Darren Sproles and Ryan Mathew all splitting carries for the Phillidelipha Eagles this season. How will Brandon Marshall fair alongside Eric Decker with the immortal Geno Smith at the helm? In the next coming weeks are you prepare for your Fantasy Football drafts we will tackle these issues.
But back to Fantasy Football stereotypes. We all have friends, family and co-workers who fit the profiles outlined in the YouTube video below. Each stereotype comes with a fatal flaw which can be used against him during the fantasy football season. May the fantasy odds always be in your favor.
Once we can identify each of the individuals that fall prey to one a stereotype we can use this information to our advantage. Here's a list of who they are and how and when to exploit them.
The Homer:
The typical Fantasy Football Owner who plays favorites with his roster choices. This owner is known for consistently drafting players from the teams he roots hardest for. The homer does this with little regard for average draft position (ADP) or actual Fantasy output.
Exploit:
Getting under the skin of the homer is quite easy, just draft players you know he covets. This is easy to accomplish since he can't draft all the high quality Fantasy Football players at once. They should be ample opportunities to draft skilled position players without reaching beyond that player's ADP. It's important to exploit the homer as long as it isn't at the detriment of your own Fantasy Football team. Chances are you will be able to have them overpay during the season via trade for these players you went out of your way to grab.
Mr. Know It All:
This owner goes above and beyond to read every cheat sheet available. Watches the NFL combine, analyzes each offseason move carefully and subscribes to paid Fantasy resources. This type of owner lives and dies by the projected points of his players. Injuries, trade rumors, and depth chart dangers are dismissed for the almighty projected point algorithm of choice.
Exploit:
Well to be honest, there isn't an easy way to take down this type of Fantasy owner. Statistics are huge indicators on potential outcomes of Fantasy Football. Projected versus actual performances can be quite different. That's why the games are played. Anyone can do anything on any given Sunday. If you use statistics such as touches, targets or snaps while in trade negotiations you are more likely to work out a trade. Use your gut when making your decisions because numbers don't tell the whole story all the time.
The Ridiculous Trader:
This guy is usually the annoy and persistent owner who continues to spam the league's members with lopsided trades. A big pop-over window should appear when receiving these trades that says. " Are you sure you want to get ripped off?".
Exploit:
At some point, it could be worth it to trade away the cornerstone of your fantasy team in exchange for some side cash. While this is highly immoral, it's not a terrible way to recover some of your financial investment in a lost Fantasy season. You will probably catch some flack for this, possibly even have the trade vetoed. I have seen owners banned from leagues for this type of collusion. However, in the world of Fantasy Football I have seen morals compromised for much less.
The Commish:
The commissioner of a fantasy football league is supposed to be a person of high moral character. They will not be influenced by one whiny owner who pleads for a rule change or for a trade veto. The commissioner may have some odd point scoring system or rules that may differ from traditional fantasy league formats. The commissioner can be abrasive and try to rule with an iron fist. But hey, it isn't easy being the commissioner, dealing with the trials and tribulations of trade disputes.
Exploit:
There aren't many chinks in the suit of armor on this one. Criticism is rarely met with agreement and a victory over a rule change or trade dispute. You can however, achieve a common goal if you are able to get the majority of your league to fight in favor for something regardless of the commissioner's opinion on the matter. This is your best bet, also it never hurts to be "buddy buddy" with the commissioner. Sometimes all it takes its a little birdy to implant a subtle suggestion that could become fantasy law.
Protip: Pay your league dues early, you will score some bonus points with the commissioner.
The Overreactor / Rage Monster:
The rage monster lives and dies with every win and loss during the season. His motions are erratic, depending on which way the wind blows. Count on lots of roster movement throughout the season as he grows tired of underperforming players. His short leash antics and overreactions will lead to a high turnover rate of players. Some good ones worth keeping will hit the waiver wire so keep your eyes peeled.
Exploit:
The rage monster, while someone you wouldn't want within an arm's reach of your finest china may be your best ally in acquiring talented players. The rage monster may be quick to give up on a high draft pick who has been riddled with injuries. The rage monster see's little value in players who don't suit up on game day. You should have your eyes on the prize, knowing that an underperformer today may be a total stud come keep in the playoff race, The rage monster is more susceptible to trades that yield short-term gains in return for long-term successes.
The Autodrafter:
The autodrafter rolls the dice, either by being unavailable for the draft or by running out of time due to indecision. These owners are generally weak minded and don't invest the same amounts of time and effort. Within the definition of the autodrafter is it's own greatest weakness. Most autodrafts are based on the best player available which could in fact, produce a hefty roster of players. Autodrafters do win championships, it's possible if the owner has great knowledge for the game or just drafts with an incredible amount of luck. The autodrafter tends to get players that no one else in the league is high on or has slept on. You could autodraft an impressive squad or a team with three Quarterbacks, two kickers and two special teams/ team defenses.
Exploit:
While through luck or misfortune, the autodrafter's team will be filled with sleepers or aging hasbeens. Autodrafters tend to be newer or casual owners who neglect their lineups and disregard making roster moves unless absolutely necessary, The autodrafter leaves his team to luck and the almighty algorithm which drafted the team. No need to find weaknesses in the autodrafter's skill set. The autodrafter often defeats himself.
Mr. Feeling:
Mr. Feeling is the anti-Mr.Knowitall. He makes roster moves based on gut instincts alone with little to no research behind his moves. Mr. Feeling can waste precious roster spots on players who won't ever produce. Mr. Feeling bases most of his "gut" on the perceived skill of players. Mr. Feeling probably gets most of his information from one source or catches some of the hype in players from ESPN highlight reels and sports talk radio.
Exploit:
Sell high on players he is enamored with. While it may be hard to acquire players from him that he admires, you may be able to coax out a player who has recently cooled down in the past few weeks. Fantasy Football is a whirlwind of emotion dictated by performance, water cooler chats and the media. Play to his inability to separate true value from his over-hyped and sometimes random "feels" for certain players.

Fantasy Bro Sports: We Liked Fantasy Sports Before it was Cool
No serious business to announce today. Just playing around with this amusing logo generator from hipsterlogogenerator.com.
Here's what our Logo would look like if we were a Williamsburg based Start-up.
I'm Only Here So I Don't Get Fired
Ladies and Gentlemen of the inter webs the brief winter hiatus is almost over so count on us returning to churning out useful analytic. Off season inspired rage and rants and a few coming of age tales from "the Fantasy Bro Sports: Here's where I cry about how hard building a start-up is".
We will return to our regularly scheduled program shortly. In the interim, tweet us @fantasybroapp with one feature you would love for us to incorporate into the next build of Fantasy Bro Sports.
