FSG: Taking Fantasy to New Heights
The Fantasy Sports Trade Association took these stats a couple years back, estimating fantasy sports to be a $3 billion to $4 billion annual impact across the sports industry. No wonder the NFL, NBA, MLB and PGA all want a piece of the pie. And powerhouses like Time-Warner, ESPN, Fox Sports, CBS, NBC and Yahoo are jumping to get their cut of the action. More surprisingly was that of the 12.6 million US adults to play fantasy sports in 2005, one million were female. Since that article's release in 2005, and with the recent internet boom in fantasy sites, those numbers are sure to have increased.
Women and Fantasy Sports? I know what your thinking... The concept has come a long way from obsessive guys drinking bud light and holding mock drafts on fold out card-tables in the garage. Okay...maybe it hasn't come that far. But if you've never really got into fantasy sports yourself, this site might just help change your perspective. Fantasy Sports Girl (FSG) puts a new spin on the past-time, putting the fantasy back into...well...fantasy.
They're motto is "The Expert to Listen to...and TO LOOK AT!" Follow the jump to see Fantasy Sports Girl Taralee discuss the Arizona Cardinals' upcoming season. She may be hard on Matt Leinart, but she sure ain't hard on the eyes.

Yeah, not hard on the eyes, but she "discusses" the upcoming Cards season? More like she reads the cue cards. I'll give her props when she lands on Around The Horn or burns Rome.
