Garret Mathany An award winning member of the Fantasy Sports Writers Association, I have won over 30K playing Fantasy Football in several different formats. My passion for the hobby kicked into overdrive, after the team formerly known as the Los Angeles Rams, were moved to St. Louis by their hooker owner. She has since passed away. Fantasy football provided a way to root for a team that would never fall victim to the whims of greedy, carpet bagging NFL owners again. With fantasy football and DirecTV’s NFL Ticket package, who needs a local team?
Being a College Football junkie, I wrote several articles and covered the 2007 NFL Draft for Draft.com, but I am most proud of the work that I have put into FantasyFreakinFootball.com. My aggressive projections and player insights will help you “Make Your Own Luck,” or at the very least, challenge your existing opinions. I am proud to work with such fantasy football juggernauts as Jules “Red Ryder” McLean and James “Body Count” Jewell.
Jules McLean
