Ok, not wishing in any way to take away from Ken's and JT's Fantasy
pool, I still need something to keep my attention fully focused on
tonight's game. So as an interesting study in the statistics behind
Fantasy ultimate, I will be keeping stats with the Fantasy x-rules and
comparing them to the stats of standard Fantasy. Now, you may have
noticed that the fantasy x-rules were not adopted into the 10th edition
UPA rules and you may ask yourself where they come from. Quite simply,
I made them up - mainly they provide points for non-scoring passes and
more heavily penalize the turnovers. Now I will be putting my own
dollar into Ken's and JT's pool, and I encourage you to do the same, but
if you are wealthy enough to possess TWO dollars, then you can bring the
second one over and enter the Fantasy x-rules pool as well. Same deal,
pick a 5/2 line. Should you pick the same line as standard Fantasy
rules? That's up to you...
