The first ever FanDuel Fantasy Football Championship is launching for the 2010 NFL Season. On December 5th weekend, 10 winners of their weekly competition will be flown to Las Vegas to compete in an intense one-day fantasy football league. The winner will be crowned FanDuel Fantasy Football Grand Champion and take home $25,000. Every week starting September 6th they’re running a one-week fantasy football league to find 10 finalists. More than $10,000 in runner up prizes.
Win a trip to Vegas with a $10 entry? Count me in. Or finish 10th in the weekly contest and you still win $50. Here is my team for Week 1:
QB: Peyton Manning @ HOU
RB: Matt Forte vs DET
RB: Jamaal Charles vs SD
WR: Andre Johnson vs IND
WR: Pierre Garcon @ HOU
WR: Devin Aromashodu vs DET
TE: Dallas Clark @ HOU
K: Rob Bironas vs OAK
DEF: Seattle vs SF
I’m kind of putting all my eggs in one basket with the Colts. If they somehow get held to under 21 points then I have no shot. Also, I doubt many people will have Seattle for their Defense, but I think they could be solid this week vs. a below average 49ers Offense.
Win a trip to Las Vegas + a Chance to Win $25,000 in the FanDuel Fantasy Football Championship!
Seattle came up big on Defense, Peyton did alright, Garcon was awful. I will need a HUGE day out of Charles tomorrow night if I want to finish in the Top 10. I’m currently in 27th place out of 538. I also accidentally made my picks on my old roommates account, DBiss55, because it was logged in on my computer, oops.
It would have been nice to have Hakeem Nicks or Arian Foster today, damn.
