Fantasy Football - How much effort?

BlueCuracao · November 2009

If you play FF, how much time/effort do you put into it each week?

I spend a pretty good amount of time on it. Between Monday and Tuesday I probably spend an hour considering any pickups or trades for the week. Between Tuesday and Friday I spend anywhere from 1-2 hours reading analysis and setting my lineup. Sunday morning I get up early to watch all the pregame shows and make adjustments to my lineup..

Wow it sounds like I no life! Hey there's a lot of money on the line here.. Stick out tongue

I don't do much with mine at all. I researched prior to the draft to ensure a decent roster (as opposed to last year when I just picked who sounded cool). After that, I just played whoever was hot and consistent with getting points, and making sure I wasn't playing those on a bye week. And other than that, I made 1 drop/add when Michael Turner became injured. And that's the only change I've made to my roster. So I don't do a whole lot with it unless I have to. No wonder I'm 3-7.... LOL

I spend about 5 minutes towards the end of the week setting my line-up... just to make sure I swap out anyone who has a bye or is injured. That is about it.

I watch a lot of ESPN to begin with, so I'm pretty up-to-date on NFL info anyway. I usually set my line-up on Tuesday morning and then re-adjust (if needed) on Thursday or Sunday, depending on when the first game is. There's not a lot of trades in our league, so there's not much to consider. Some years I put more effort into it. But this year has been pretty easy and not very time-consuming.

I spend a few minutes here and there, however we do not play for money. If we did I might spend a little more time, but probably not much more.

Well I watch ESPN fairly regularly through the week. I'm a SAHM, and my son's naptime is my ESPN-time. When we were in Vegas in September, we went to the ESPN zone and they had some t-shirt about a husband wanting his wife to do less talking, more watching ESPN, and MH was like that needs to be reversed. He has no idea how lucky he is.

I did a lot of research before the draft and each week I re-evaluate my lineup.

We don't play for much money, but I enjoy it so why not put the effort into it?

I usually change my line up if necessary right before the games start. I think I have made about 4 player changes this season and that is all. Right now I am #1 in my league. I got lucky and was able to get Peyton, Peterson and Moss.

My husband's played FF before [not this season...just didn't want to], and he didn't put much time into it. We watch ESPN all the time together though, so he pretty much knew everything he needed to.

I play fantasy basketball [NBA], and I spend about 10 minutes a day on it. Watching ESPN and keeping up on stats on my players helps...I don't do a lot of research on my players since I have a pretty strong team.

Before the draft, I do quite a bit of research so that I have a decent roster. And so that I am not freaking out when all of the well known guys are gone after the first couple of rounds.

As far as the time during the season...I don't spend a ton of time. I keep my eye on ESPN during the ewek when I have time. And I do some research on Sunday mornings to make my line up the best it can be for the week.

Other than that, I will randomly check in to see if there are any changes that I deem necessary.
