| Fantasy sports
A Fantasy sport is a game where
fantasy owners build a team that competes against
other fantasy owners based on the statistics generated
by individual players or teams of a professional
sport. Probably the most common variant converts
statistical performance into points generated
by a fantasy team, and are typically simple enough
to be manually calculated by a "league commissioner."
More complex variants use computer modeling of
actual games based on statistical input generated
by professional sports. |
