Don't Pee In The (Fantasy) Pool
Posted by Brodie under: Uncategorized
So Barbara from Fierce Tennis made a post about tennis-pool.com which looks amazing. As a lover of fantasy leagues, this definitely rules.
You pick 10 ATP and 10 WTA players for each week, however, you’re capped by a certain amount of ranking points, and you can only “trade in” 3 ATP and 3 WTA players PER WEEK. So basically you need to pick who you think will do well each week, within a certain ranking limit (like a salary cap). Brilliant, and awesome. What’s even better is that it’s not a forum, its all organized on the site, and it’s insanely easy to use. You really only need to make your picks each Sunday, and then see how they do during the week, and that’s it. My name is MindTheRacket and I’ve created a Mind The Racket club. You simultaneously compete against everyone (over 250 people joined right now) as well as other clubs, so if you don’t want to join the club, you totally don’t have to. Come on people!
Lots of people who read this also love suicide pool stuff, and for those who are interested, I plan on competing in the suicide pool over at TennisForum which has a brilliant and well organized ranking system and is a ton of fun (I’m only going to be doing the women, since I don’t have the brain capacity or patience to do both). My name on there is BrofUJu.
Hopefully a decent amount of you are interested, feel free to go nuts in the comments, ask questions on here or Twitter, and we can have a fun year of fantasy tennis picking!
