The Importance Of Fantasy Football
It also helps to know the fundamentals of how to play Fantasy Football before starting your own league. For starters, in fantasy football, you are the “owner” or the “manager” of your own team that you drafted and put together yourself. The fun part, is that the team consists of real NFL football players from the current season you decide to play. You earn fantasy points based on each NFL players stats throughout the season. For example, if you draft Tom Brady as your quarterback for your team, and he throws a touchdown pass, you will earn fantasy points. Or, if your player is hurt, you won’t earn any points therefore you should not start him in your next lineup.

    The Rooney Rule was created in 2002 when two head football coaches were fired. Those two football coaches are Tony Dungy and Dennis Green who both had successful careers as head football coaches. Both Dungy and Green are African Americans and civil rights leaders led by Johnnie Cochran felt there was a need to look into why there were very few minority coaches in the NFL, especially those who are just as successful as white head coaches.
