If you play #FantasyFootball, #FantasyBaseball, #DFS or any fantasy sport, I wrote this book for you. You will love it: “The History of Fantasy Sports: And the Stories of the People Who Made It Happen.” The first complete history of how fantasy sports grew from quirky backyard games into a multi-billion-dollar industry—packed with surprising, funny, and inspiring true stories. Highlights include: The true story behind Dan Okrent's invention of fantasy baseball (no, he didn’t magically come up with the idea on an airplane!) A WWII hero who helped spread fantasy football Five nuns co-managing a fantasy team in a Chicago convent A man with ALS finally winning his league after 39 years of playing The group “Women Against Fantasy Sports” How Monica Lewinsky saved Fantasy Sports, and many more. “Simply fascinating read from start to finish.” — Midwest Book Review “Schechter condenses hundreds of years of history into an easy-to-read, entertaining narrative…” — Book Life (Publishers Weekly) “I was enlightened by all the interviews and stories.” — Paul Charchian, Former President, Fantasy Sports Trade Association (2009–2020) I’d appreciate it if you repost this and let your fantasy friends know about it. I’m doing this without a big publisher or PR team, so every share helps. I'm also available for podcast interviews, articles, podcasts, etc. Check it out on Amazon for more details and reviews: amazon.com/History-Fantasy-S…

#NFL @Giants Cam Skattebo #FantasyFootball owners scared he's going to fumble again today.

Just give @Brewers the trophy now. No need to keep playing any more.

If an #MLB pitcher comes in the 9th inning with a 3-run lead, nobody out, nobody on, why do they get credit for a "Save"? What are they saving? They aren't saving anything! This should be called a "hold" or the "final hold." There should be criteria such as If they come in with a one-run lead, a guy on third, and less than two outs, then they saved something. Who's with me on this? @RonShandler @ToddZola @Jeff_Erickson @PitcherList @elonmusk ?

Drake Maye 48 yard TD pass to Rhamondre Stevenson is a good thing when you have both players in #SFB16!

I could never play on offense in the #NFL, my dance moves aren't good enough for after I score a TD.

wouldn't it be nice if @Patriots had a #1 WR like AJ Brown?

In case anyone is wondering, to the best of my knowledge, I have never married my brother.

They're signing Najee Harris and releasing Justin Herbert. Zero QB strategy. Zero passing.
Replying to @RealManSports
no, that's too complicated. They're going 100% with only a rushing game.

My bold #NFL take for this week: The 0-6 @chargers will NOT lose this week.

someone tell me why would Andy Dalton sign with @AtlantaFalcons to be 3rd string QB instead of with @Eagles to be #2? #NFL

BREAKING NEWS: Investigative reporter has just learned @taylorswift13 does NOT have @tkelce on her #FantasyFootball team.

If @Giants weren't going to play Skattebo, why didn't they make him inactive? #NFL

What time is @Brewers vs @Dodgers #MLB game #5 today? I don't see it listed on my TV guide. Surely there's a game 5 today, isn't there? Brewers couldn't possibly have swept the series, right? Was it already cancelled due rain? snow? hurricane? earthquake?

I'm glad my tough love snapped him out of his funk.
