Fantasy Sports: Industry Outlook

Bleak. How can a product so widely desired not be able to provide a living to its most insightful writers?

Ray here-interesting point....and very true. the fantasy industry is quite large to boot.

Until a way to control the spread of information i.e. Eddie Royal is either a #1 this season or Jerricho Cotchery and get credit/royalties, this industry is dead man walking.

Having ESPN i.e. the public option giving away its fantasy content and commissioner services for free makes it unlikely that content can be financially rewarding.

There is nothing in fantasy sports that isn't given away for free now that ADP is readily available for nothing.
