Now this is not an HBO announcement or anything that I'm trying to drum up to get signees to Las Vegas, just a heads up. Sports Illustrated is sending a reporter to our Fantasy Sports Trade Conference in Las Vegas March 17-18 to do a story on the growing fantasy sports industry and that reporter is going to stick around to see our National Fantasy Baseball Championship. I'm not guaranteeing any interviews with you guys or even a mention in the upcoming story, if the story even makes it into print. But I will ask you to be on your best behavior and not come to the draft in wizard outfits or anything crazy like that. Actually, just act your age and I think we'll all be fine.



Again, no guarantees on anything but the reporter seemed like a good guy and he plans on sticking for four days and seeing the business side of things and the consumer side. Hopefully it will lead to good national publicity for the industry and maybe even this event.

Come on Greg, where else am I ever going to be able to wear the Wizard outfit? I might as well take the thing back I guess.

Personally I do my best fantasy work sitting around in my underwear and wife beater T-shirt, and an event this important I want to do my best work. The coffee stains and skid marks won't be that noticeable



I might even make the cover.

Middle-aged, bald, fat guys sitting around their computers in their BVD's with a beer and a short cigar, typing out smack talk and scratching their a$$.
