Ypsilanti, Mich. -- Fantasy sports is becoming as much of an American icon as Budweiser, bald eagles, and the game of baseball itself. It seems that almost anyone in your office or classroom is a member of some form of fantasy sports league, but you never really see to many articles about this growing phenomena.
My name is Scotty Mullin, a three time champion, and I am the face of the New Jersey Fantasy Sports League on Yahoo. I am taking this classroom opportunity in my feature writing class to write better As every class goes by, the writing shall improved and more importantly, your reading pleasure.
Fantasy sports with my group of colleagues is a big ordeal. We have drafts, award ceremonies, elections, and it seems to become more and more like a social fraternity as each year progresses. The championship ceremony has become very ritualistic, and this to me is quite odd, considering that when we first began the first NBA league, it was just something a friend decided to do one day when he was home alone and bored. Now it has consumed lives.
When I write, sometimes I will go off the beaten path and talk about the hot issue of the day. No one ever knows with the way my mind operates because I am a "wildcard," but sometimes, that is what it takes to have a winning formula.
I have won a championships in football, basketball, and baseball. When I am not trying to win championships, I am usually playing Farmville on Facebook.com, shopping for clothes and groceries, and watching WWE.
