Well if we are talking about the best types of fantasy sports it is no contest, baseball is by far the best. Specifically a 4 x 4 or 5 x 5, one league, auction draft, keeper fantasy baseball league.
I am in an AL only league that I made some great improvements in this year. I was actually tops in the league for several months, but had a rash of injuries that kind of killed my momentum at the end and finished 5th out of 10 teams. It was my second year in the league and it really does take 2-3 years to really build a good team. The first year I did awful and finished second to last and completely tore the team apart. Next year, I feel confident that I will be able to improve. Mainly I learned not to waste over $60.00 on pitchers like Erik Bedard and CC Sabathia. Biggest mistake though was not extended Ian Kinsler. I had him at $9.00 and could have given a 3-year extension for $14.00, $19.00, and $24.00. Instead I lose him to free agency.
Next year I will stick to a strict $180.00 and $80.00 allocation between hitters and pitchers.
