Fantasy Football Lessons Learned - Things I Was Right About This Year

The 2024 fantasy football season is over. Now is the time to look back to see what we got right and wrong. Every wrong doesn't mean we were wrong; every right doesn't mean we were right. Technically, it does, but that shouldn't always be the takeaway. Sometimes, our process was correct, but bad luck just […]
