Description:
FANtasy GM is a fantasy sports platform which incorporates the strategy and comradery of the season long league with the excitement and instant gratification of the daily game. Think ESPN fantasy sports meets DraftKings. Fantasy sports is a growing industry with an estimated 57 million+ people playing in 2016. Players enjoy competing in leagues with their friends but because the payoff is typically 4 - 6 months down the road they turn to daily sites like DraftKings and FanDual. With FANtasy GM they would get the best of both worlds. You would be able to take the roster that you have drafted, traded and signed and use them in different daily competitions against your league to keep the season long grind entertaining, fun and lucrative.
