There is an NFL and NCAA contest and since I’m researching both each week anyway, I figured that I would do both and I’m doing two of each so I have a total of four entries for “Last Man Standing.” The other reason is that Red Rock Casino is down the street (and my home casino) from my house so putting in my picks is easy. The “Last Man Standing” contests are only $25 each and end as soon as I lose a game (which could be this week). There were lots of options but, because I am new to contests, I didn’t plan on dropping $10k on the world famous Hilton SuperContest. I ended up choosing Station Casinos “ Last Man Standing” contests for a variety of reasons. One contest turned into seven, so my time that I used to devote to fantasy football will now be given to these contests.
However, over the past couple years I’ve been hearing about these football contests at the casinos so I considered entering one. I was stoked just to bet on a couple of NFL and NCAA games a week and be done. This year I finally cut fantasy football out of my life and I feel much better for it. I was egged into a couple fantasy leagues the past couple of years, but hardly paid attention. A few years ago I realized that the only fun for me in fantasy football was the draft.
