Welcome to our blog!


While it’d be really easy to start the blog off with a rant about the Cubs, instead I will introduce you to the website and myself.

My name is Sean, I am 24 years old, and I breathe sports. My dad introduced me to the world of sports at an early age… by the time I was born, he had season tickets to the Cubs, Bulls, and Blackhawks. We still have ‘Hawks and Cubs tickets but got rid of the Bulls tickets at the end of the ’98 (the end of their dynasty).

While I do love the Cubs, Bears, ‘Hawks, and Bulls, there is no question that baseball is my favorite sport. I am an unfortunately huge Cubs fan. I am an avid ‘Hawks and Bears fan, and more of a casual basketball fan. I know that Michael Jordan has already provided this city with the best basketball I will ever see... so the Bulls do not interest me as much as the other teams.

I went to college at Indiana, where I met Ricky and we instantly connected due to our love of sports. After senior year, I joined his fantasy baseball and football leagues… finishing second in baseball (losing to him in both regular season and playoffs) and getting blown out of the water in my first year of football as a result of injuries and inexperience.

Ricky and I both follow sports closely enough that we wanted to do something with the large amount of otherwise useless knowledge we have acquired… so a blog made a lot of sense. We’ve both done well in fantasy sports and really love talking about trades/the value of different players, so we hope to provide advice that will be valuable to your various fantasy teams. We’ll also put up some posts on our strategies, including both those that have boomed and those that have busted. And as mentioned above we will both vent about things that drive us crazy in sports.

Direct any questions about trade proposals you have/ want to make, players to add and drop, and so on to us through this blog, foulweatherfantasy@gmail.com, either of our personal emails, or our twitter page @FWFantasy. And challenge us on any perspectives please, we love to argue.

Sean
