“It’s the most wonderful time of the year….”
Andy Williams first sung those words back in 1963, and he was talking about Christmastime. For football fans, specifically fantasy football fans, August is Christmas. Instead of snow falling from the sky, fantasy football owners are trying to digest all the little bits of information that flitter past them. (No two are the same, by the way.) Instead of presents under the tree, they’re hoping to unwrap that one late-round flier who will turn into a top 10 performer (without finding any first-round busts in their stockings, of course). If they don’t get what they want, they can always go to the returns desk (a.k.a. the waiver wire) and try to find something better.
