Fantasy Sports generate billions of dollars? HOW!!
I knew that the phenomenon of Fantasy Sports was popular but I had no idea. Apparently billions of dollars are being generated with the various fantasy leagues.
I've got a simple question for you. How??
Isn't participation in most of these leagues free? The players stats are free. No one is paying the players anything for using their names and likenesses. MLB and/or MLBAM already took that one to court and lost.
So, are a billion-plus dollars being spent on advertising alone? Who is reaping the enormous win-fall? The web sites that host the leagues?
Wow, someone is getting crazy-rich off a 'make believe' game that people play for free.
Someone please explain the dollars and cents to me!

Fantasy sports have pay leagues. These are the most popular because you have a live draft, you win money, you can trade and if you win your league you win the entire pot of entree fees. Some people make thousands off winning a fantasy league. In fantasy football you choose your line up and tune in every weekend to root your players on no matter what team they play for. It just adds more excitement to watching games when your fantasy running back breaks through the line for a TD.
