Its Fantasy Football Time, Is it Worth the Money?

fantasyfootballAs football preseason begins with much disgust to many wives out there, football fans around the country are now starting to strategize for their upcoming fantasy football draft. Most leagues, as everyone is well aware, usually require some sort of buy in, which usually goes to a fund for the winners and to pay for a website to tally your scores each week. Is this buy in worth it?

Generally, with most things like fantasy football, I figure if it is worth your time then it is probably worth your money.  So, if you really enjoy playing fantasy football, paying $50 to be in a league is probably a bargain. If you hate it, then of course, it’s probably a waste of your cash.

If you think about it, most buy in fees for fantasy football leagues are relatively low and usually less than the cost of one ticket to an actual NFL game. However, unlike the cost of a game ticket, fantasy football supplies entertainment throughout the entire football season. So if you favorite team is having an awful year or your team isn’t playing on a Monday night, you may still get into a game just to see if your fantasy players can tear it up.

So for a total of around $50 to get into a fantasy football league you are likely getting entertainment out of otherwise completely meaningless games to you, weeks of trash talking (in good fun of course) with your friends of co-workers, and you may even end up winning some if it back. Is fantasy football worth the money? To me, without a doubt, it is.
