Allow me to introduce myself, I would have copy and pasted my Yahoo fantasy Baseball and Football resume to this introduction, but the numbers would take away all of my credibility. I am here to represent those fantasy owners who struggle to survive and find themselves making impulse moves and find themselves blaming injuries for failures each year. I am here to represent those of you that still live five years ago and believe in the value of the hold! If you find yourself searching for a spot starter on a Sunday of your head to head league then I am your man. You will soon learn I have a very unique way of evaluating talent when it comes to fantasy sports. If a player has done me good in the past(Da Meat Hook, Roberto Hernandez, Donald Driver, Etc...), he has reached, "My Guy" status. If a player has done me wrong in the past (Plummer, swisher, Rolen, Rolen, etc...) Those players are forever blackballed and no longer welcome in my fantasies. Fantasy players are just like women, once they do you wrong they can't be trusted. However, if they do you right, you trust them even when most others don't. I will soon share the complete My Guy list of fantasy baseball players that can be trusted. Just for the record we have 56 more days until spring training!!!

New Blog Experience
What I think will be original about this blog, is that the people here won't go around claiming they are experts, or that they have all the answers. Don't get me wrong sites like ESPN have tremendous fantasy coverage, and is a great place to get current news and stats. But one field I find ESPN severely lacking in is its head-to-head league coverage. Most of what they supply is for the classic, rotisserie leagues, while it has been shown that most fantasy players now prefer the head-to head format. I am of the opinion that head-to-head, needs more strategy, and really changes week to week depending on the type of team you are playing.
None have us have all the answers, but we all have different philosophies, and it'll be up to the reader to pick and choose which philosophy or idea, they want to pick from. As Ben said, we are talking sports stories and their fantasy implications all the time, so this will be more of an extension of our conversations than it will be a "how to".
Currently I primarily focus on fantasy baseball and football (thoughts and strategies to come...) while I also have experience in fantasy basketball and have participated in fantasy NASCAR to varying degrees the last 2 seasons.
I know all of us look forward to getting this blog going fully with daily updates and our personal thoughts.
Thanks

Welcome To The Fantasy Sports Experience
Rather than spending an inordinate amount of time bombarding one another with fantasy sports-related analysis and prognostications via AIM, I (Ben) have joined together with my buddies Josh and Phil to bring you the Fantasy Sports Experience.
