3 1/2 Stars
Well I can honestly say I knew nothing about fantasy football before and in the first chapter alone I learned sooo much. I didn't realize there was so many different ways to play either. The main things I didn't like was how disorganized the material was. If you know nothing about FF (like me) the book instructs you to skip around chapters and come back. I don't like doing that and I really didn't see why it couldn't be set up like a normal front to back read and just let the more advanced players be the ones who skip around. Another thing was when it came time to look into joining a public league that he suggested there was information I needed to know that he never discussed. That kind of makes me nervous. A lot of important stuff (worth remembering) got buried in useless info as well. I can always skim back through the book if I need to, unless I get stuck during the draft (this is what I'm nervous about) where I just wont have enough time.

Got this for my buddy William after his "A+" draft ...
Got this for my buddy William after his "A+" draft turned in to a 4-9 dumpster fire. He's missed the playoffs two out of three years in a league with several "special" people in it. Can this get him past his unhealthy man crush on Cam Newton? Can this help him avoid making horrendous trades for old broken down players like Brandon Marshall? Will it stop him from loading his bench with practice squad RBs? I know a book can only do so much.....but here's hoping that someday, hopefully soon, William gets to play meaningful fantasy football in December!

Then I would offer them feedback on how to tweak their strategy to not suck quite so hard
As the three time league champion, I wanted to do something for the other managers in my league to help them be more competitive in the future. So I purchased Fantasy Football for Dummies and asked them to read it and then write a 1000 word essay on how I beat them in the most recent season. Then I would offer them feedback on how to tweak their strategy to not suck quite so hard. All in all, I recommend this book for anyone wanting to brush up on their fantasy football skills.

Fantasy Rookie
I was asked by the guys at work to join their Fantasy Football League this past year. So, being a woman and being a Rookie to Fantasy Football I didn't want to ask anyone how to play so I got this book. It's been great!! Needless to say I'm playing in the championship game this weekend. It's been a lot of fun and I already can't wait until next year's draft. If you're a Rookie to the Fanstasy Leagues this book is informational and easy to follow.

Fantasy Football for Dummies - one small critique
I am new to fantasy football this season. This dummies book was the right level for me. My only criticism is that Yahoo fantasy football is the site that the author favors in his discussion. To be fair, he does cover other sites, and the general information he gives is very valuable. Also, he is very upfront about this and so you know what is coming. Still, I learned a lot from the book and consider it well worth the money

Prepare early for next Fantasy Football season.
Very fast delivery. I bought this for a friend as a gag gift after his Fantasy Football season, but as I looked at the book, I will be adding this to my library before next season. With some new tips, maybe I could also improve my record next season.

Now a Fantasy Football Lover!
As a female, not much of an expect in football, much less on Fantasy Football - this book was perfect. I decided to start my own league this year and this book provided me the info I needed to prepare to select my team as well as commission my own league. I would recommended it to all who want to learn how to get started on your first league/ team. My spouse who is an avid football fan, also found it to be useful in understanding the game better.

Good book for 1st timers
Finding a lot of great information in this book. FF is quite a complicated game and reading this book explained many things I needed to know. Only gave it 4 stars because too much reference to different FF sites. Wanted to just know the best and smartest way to play and the book covered most of that.

El libro me ha gustado , es muy fácil de leer y con consejos prácticos , la parte que más ha ayudado es la evitar los errores comunes en el draft y sobretodo aprender a ser paciente en el desempeño de los jugadores . Tengo varios clientes en mi liga, como Gus y el champ , ellos no me preocupan , voy por el título

Lots of good information and tips
This book has a lot of information for anyone who plays or would like to play Fantasy Football. I only give it 4/5 because a lot of the information can be gleaned elsewhere, such as NFL.com or an NFL magazine.

not only for dummies...
Wunderbar geschrieben, Fantasy Football von vorne bis hinten, mit der berühmten Dummies-Prise Humor und sehr gut strukturiert. Ist lieder nur in englisch zu haben aver jede fantasy site eben auch.... Wer tiefer eintauchen möchte in die Gefilde von FF ist hier sehr gut aufgehoben.
