Houston’s Eagle’s Fantasy Football League

Fantasy football has gone from a side game for hardcore stat guys to one of the biggest traditions of the NFL season. Every fall, friends, families and coworkers draft teams, talk a little trash and spend Sundays checking fantasy scores almost as closely as the games themselves.

And there are a lot of people playing.

The Fantasy Sports & Gaming Association says more than 53 million people participate in fantasy sports, and football is easily the biggest draw. Among season-long fantasy players, 79% play fantasy football.

This season, Houston’s Eagle is getting in on the action with our Fantasy Football League for Eagle listeners.

We’re putting together a league where listeners can go head-to-head throughout the NFL season, with bragging rights on the line every week and a Houston’s Eagle Prize Pack for the league champion.

And you don’t have to spend your life studying spreadsheets to play. The idea is simple: draft your team, set your lineup and see how you stack up against other Eagle listeners and Doug O’Brien all season long. We’ll keep the scoring straightforward, and ESPN takes care of the weekly matchups, scoring and standings.

So if fantasy football is already part of your fall, or you’ve always wanted to give it a shot, we want to hear from you.

Head to HoustonsEagle.com and register for your chance to join the league.

Grab a spot, build your team and let’s see who really knows football.
