Fantasy 🏈 Analysis for Winners | Beat Your Friends, Dominate Your Leagues | Win DFS Contests & NFL Bets | Data-Driven Insights and Resources | Online Community of 300+ Fantasy Football Brains Ready to Help You Win!

When I was 7(ish), I "invented" a game where I'd close my eyes, grab two unsharpened NFL pencils, twirl them in my hands, and drop one (the loser). I'd record the winner/loser in my notebook and grab the next two pencils and do it again. I did full 16-game seasons this way, including the playoffs and Super Bowls. 🏆
 
When I was 11(ish), I played Madden on my Super Nintendo and then use a typewriter to write a "news article" about what happened in the game. 📰
 
When I was 15(ish), I met my inevitable best man because I discovered there was another human in the world like me who would play Madden and record every possible statistic in his notebook (we STILL do this today at 35 years old but we've at least leveled up to Google Sheets). 📓
 
When I was 18(ish), I played in my first #fantasyfootball league, and a new obsession unlike any other was born. I went on to win not only my leagues but also big ticket items like 64-person leagues and DFS tournaments. 💰
 
When I was 26(ish), I was tired of questioning my start/sit decisions with my fantasy football lineups. Rankings and projections didn't tell the full story, so I started creating a resource that DID. Something that recommended WHO to start, WHEN to start them, and, most importantly, WHY to start them.
 
When I was 31(ish), I started making that resource available to the public and had complete strangers asking for my Venmo so they could donate for using the resource. 🤯 
 
When I was 33(ish), I quit an ascending, decade-long B2B sales career to bet on myself and go all in on this dream that's been subconsciously brewing my entire life.
 
Now, 300+ (and counting) fantasy football players use my resources and community to outsmart their friends and dominate their leagues! 💰 Here are the 3 main ways they do that... 👇

1.  👥 Online Community: My fantasy football Discord Server is an army of 172 (and counting) fantasy football players workshopping dilemmas and helping each other out. It's also where I'm hanging out all season, sharing exclusive insights as I find them.  

2. 📋 Fantasy Football Draft Guide: Tiers, rankings, and written previews for 250+ players with features that help you identify the right time to draft each player.

3. 📊 In-Season Weekly "Heat Maps:" Conquer impossible "start/sit" decisions and set optimal lineups every week with contextual analysis for every player in every game, every week. This is THE resource that started my entire business after it went viral on Reddit!

Come hang out with us this season! https://www.basementbrewedff.com/signup
