For one man, football is more than just a fantasy...
As seen on ESPN's "Cold Pizza"
Fantasy football -- one of America's most popular, and
profitable, virtual pastimes -- became a way of life for sports
humorist and author Mark St. Amant. Utterly fed up with never
having won his league championship, St. Amant abandoned a
successful advertising career to make fantasy football his
full-time job, embarking on a sprawling reconnaissance mission to
discover what really makes this game, and its 20 million players,
tick. "Committed" is the result of St. Amant's ranting, relentless,
and strategic pursuit of his own obsession.
In this wickedly funny and deeply informative work, St. Amant
offers readers an all-access sideline pass to his wild,
unprecedented fantasy football season, and to the hobby itself.
From its humble beginnings in a New York hotel in 1962 to a
multibillion-dollar business today, from local and online leagues
to high-stakes, cutthroat Las Vegas competitions, St. Amant lays
bare the facts, figures, and fanaticism of fantasy football in all
its multidimensional glory.
