And the best news of all is that signing up is absolutely free!


BODOG FANTASY - COOL FEATURES

The BodogLife fantasy sports website is loaded with all kinds of cool features. Here’s just a sample of what you can expect.


Article Ticker - As new fantasy sports articles are written, they’ll show up immediately on the ticker. That way, you’ll have a jump on the rest of the fantasy sports competition out there.

News Ticker - Bodog offers up-to-the-minute news and information for the NFL, MLB and NBA. If it’s happening, you can bet that Bodog will be reporting it. It’s an excellent way to keep up with trades, injuries and free agency moves.

My Leagues - If you’re in a number of different leagues, it can often be difficult to keep up with them all. That’s why Bodog offers a handy feature which lists all your fantasy leagues in one convenient place. No more fumbling about trying to find what you’re looking for; Bodog has got you covered.

Bodog Fantasy Girls - The only things better than fantasy sports are fantasy girls. That’s why Bodog offers a free gallery of the hottest models around. When you’ve completed that blockbuster trade for Adrian Peterson, why not reward yourself by checking out the likes of Olya, Amy and Stacey? There’s even steamy wallpaper available for your desktop.

Fantasy Forum - Whether you need advice on your starting roster, or you just want to brag about last week’s decisive victory, the Bodog Fantasy Forum has got you covered. You’ll literally be able to interact with fantasy players like yourself from all over the globe.


BODOG FANTASY LEAGUES

Now that you’ve seen some of the cool features available, let’s take a look at the wide variety of fantasy leagues offered by Bodog.


Fantasy Baseball Head to Head League - During a live draft, you’ll stock your fantasy baseball team with the best players in the MLB. Each week, you’ll then be matched up against another fantasy team. The team who scores the most points will be declared the winner. There are a number of scoring categories (batting, pitching, fielding, etc.), and your team’s score can be determined in three different ways. During the season, you can also show off your baseball knowledge by making trades with other players in your league.

Fantasy Baseball Rotisserie League - Like the league above, you start by drafting a team full of MLB stars. But instead of head-to-head matches each week, you’ll be playing everyone in your league at the same time. You’ll gain points based on each stat category, and the team with the best overall ranking at the end of the season will win the league.

MLB Pick’em - In this game, all you have to do is correctly pick the winners of each MLB game. The better you do, the higher your score will be. There’s also the option of including a confidence rating, which means you assign a high number to games you’re certain about and a low number to closer contests. If you pick correctly, the confidence points are added to your score.

NFL Pick’em Leagues - Each week, you’ll be asked to select the winners of the various NFL games. You can start a private fantasy football league for you and your buddies or just join one of Bodog’s private leagues. Four types of scoring options are available:

- Spread or No Spread (pick winners against the point spread)

- Straight (just pick the winners straight up)

- Confidence or Non-Confidence (as above, the higher confidence rating is assigned to sure things)

- Spread and Confidence (combine the two for a real challenge)

NFL Head to Head Leagues - Draft a Bodog fantasy football team and take on a different owner in your league every week. Trades are allowed, and private leagues can accommodate up to 32 teams. In the private leagues, you can even decide on your own scoring system.

NFL Playoff Pick’em Prize League - From January 5th to February 3rd, participants will be able to pick against the spread for NFL playoff games. There are public leagues to compete in, or you and your friends can start a private league. Last year’s top prize was a trip for two to Las Vegas.

NFL Mock Drafts - If you want to get a feel for how this year’s fantasy draft may go, why not try out a mock draft? As always, Bodog offers both public and private leagues.

NFL Survivor Leagues - This fantasy league doesn’t allow trades or free agents, and the lowest scoring team each week gets eliminated. The winner is the last team remaining. A true test of your drafting abilities, this one is for hardcore fantasy football fans.

College Bowl Pick’em Prize League - Pick against the spread for the college bowl games from December 20th to January 7th. If you’re the grand prize winner, you’ll walk away with $100,000 in cash. The next prize isn’t too shabby either, as it offers a trip for two to the NFL Draft, plus $500 in spending money.

March Madness - When March Madness rolls back around, you can bet that Bodog will have another fantasy competition available. Last year, the site offered a $1 million prize to anyone who filled out a perfect bracket.

NBA Pick’em Leagues - Each week, pick the winners of 15 NBA games. This can be done with or without confidence points. Even thought the NBA season is about over, this competition will certainly be offered again next year.


So there you have it. Bodog has almost a dozen leagues available to fantasy fanatics year-round. Whatever the sport, they’ve got a fantasy competition to cover it. Oh, and don’t forget about Bodog’s sportsbook and online casino. If you think the free fantasy section is fun, then you’re in for a big surprise.
