So Easy We’re Making It Bigger: Win $500 Murdering Me At Fantasy Football

Written by Brandon Stroud / 12.16.11

Here’s a picture of Houston Texans quarterback T.J. Yates and tight end Owen Daniels hugging each other in celebration of being drafted to my terrible Draftstreet fantasy football team.

You should be hugging, too, because this week’s contest — a 50-person cash game for $11 that gives you a chance to win money from a $500 dollar cash pool and gives $5 to anyone who places higher than me — proved so popular that they’re adding 50 more players to the mix. So here’s your chance: sign up now for a fun game and some of the easiest cash opportunities you’ve ever had. Seriously, I am bad at this. Last time I drafted Hakeem Olajuwon.

There are two concurrent games of 50 players going on this weekend with me lingering near the bottom of both, so if you missed the first one, sign up quick-like and get into this one. It all goes down THIS WEEKEND, so don’t delay.

The Easiest $500 You’ll Ever Win: Beat Brandon In Draftstreet Fantasy Football

Written by Brandon Stroud / 12.13.11

I’m cheating this time. I’m going the Tebow route, and I’m going to read my Bible and finish first place in fantasy football with Draftstreet.

Of course, that’s not going to happen (the me winning part, at least), and that’s where you come on. Instead of a freeroll this month, With Leather has organized a cash game. The first 50 people who drop $11 dollars to play get a chance to win money from a $500 dollar cash pool, and here’s the best part: every single person who finishes higher than me wins $5.

That’s easy money, folks. I drafted Brett Favre last time. I’m not very good at this. Hell, they asked me for a picture to use and I didn’t have anything “football” to wear in it. You’re going to murder me, and worst case scenario you’ll have fun playing and be out six bucks.

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE LEAGUE. (I’m already in last place.)

Win $250 With Draftstreet’s Free Fantasy Football: So Good We’re Doing It Twice

Written by Brandon Stroud / 09.21.11

Fantasy Football

woo yeah follow our sign

Two weeks ago we (along with most of the nation) made the switch from baseball to football — we offered up our first free fantasy football competition through Draftstreet, and it was such as success that we’re doing it again. Usually we wait about a month between freerolls, but why? It’s a chance for you to win money with about 45 seconds of effort, and if my 72nd place finish says anything you’ve got a great shot at being one of the 71 (plus) people who know more about football than Brandon. I’m so terrible at this. Last time I drafted Brett Favre. How did I even do that?

In case you missed it last time:

The game happens this weekend, and it’s going to work a lot like our baseball games; you’ll sign up (for free, again, I’m not going to make you pay for anything) and pick your team, choosing two QBs, two WR, two RB and so on until you’ve exhausted your salary cap, and the team with the best performance in this Sunday’s games wins money. So do the next five top teams.

So sign up as quickly as possible and draft your team. When you win, use your money to buy me a book about football.

Fantasy Follow-Up: Troy Tulowitzki Owes Me $300

Written by Brandon Stroud / 05.04.11

boooooo

So, the first With Leather fantasy baseball game through Draftstreet.com under my editorial command has come and gone, and I’m proud to say that I finished a solid 54th thanks to an 0-4 game by my new blood rival Troy Tulowitzki. You couldn’t have gotten one hit? You couldn’t have gotten hit by something? The big winner was user hw6400, who took first place with almost twice as many points as me. To add insult to injury, he had Kyle Farnsworth on his team, marking the first time Kyle Farnsworth has ever f**king won anything.

Here’s the top 5.

1. hw6400 – 88.6 points
2. Mochiman – 79.05
3. ryanbeingmanny – 74.85
4. tg7182 – 74.4
5. njpanick – 71.15
54. bthompsonstroud – 49.9 (grr)

If you won part of the cash pool, congratulations. The people at Draftstreet are awesome, so hopefully we’ll be doing more stuff like this in the near future. Next time I won’t pick Tulo. Buster Posey did even worse, scoring negative points, but he got 1 KO so I’m happy to have picked a guy with a great right cross.

Yeah, I don’t understand fantasy baseball, but it was fun.
