The PBA Tour started this week in Omaha, Nebraska. And with the start of the tour, came the return of Fantasy Bowling at http://www.bowlingfans.com/fantasy. After the Banquet Open, I'm in second, woohoo!
The concept is simple on the surface, because players merely pick five bowlers--three titleholders and two nonchamps. Before they hit the send button, however, they have to use a little strategy. WRW is an obvious choice, but he seems to be a favorite with nearly everyone who plays, so if he makes a show, there are a LOT of players getting the same points. For me, it ends up being a balance between guys I think will make the show, guys I enjoy watching, and at least a couple of lesser knowns that will let me jump in the standings if they make the telecast.
It gives you a little more to root for each week, especially with the new bracket format where half the players exit after each round. The best part of Fantasy Bowling is it's FREE. Winners gain the respect of the other fantasy players, but there's no money on the line. So if you're interested, pop on over and see if you can predict the future.
