The Fantasy Football World Championships come from some well known names in FF, Emil Kadlec (who was kind enough to write the forward for my book Fantasy Football Basics) and Ian Ritchie who I have played in several "Expert" drafts over the years. I met Emil while playing in the WCOFF back in 2007.
{Emil was a co-founder of WCOFF back in 2002 and then sold it in 2007} I like both Ian and Emil. I wish them both luck with the FFWC.
