We know you’ve been sitting at the edge of your seat in eager anticipation, and we’re not going to hold out on you any longer. Cue drumroll, please…
Watercooler, Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of FanSection Fantasy Football 2009! Sponsored by Coors Light, this league-based head-to-head commissioner-style game will bring a new social aspect to the 30 million Facebook users that play social games monthly. And, unlike other fantasy sports offerings, FanSection will open up the game to a user’s entire social graph by giving players the opportunity to invite their friends to play or simply participate as a spectator, as well as talk smack to one another and contribute to communal polls and trivia.
“We’ve spent the past few years building up a strong user base that speaks to what fans want to see as part of their social experience with sports,” said Bryan Bennett, VP of marketing and GM of fantasy sports for Watercooler. “Now that we’ve established that relationship with fans, we feel we’re well-equipped with the feedback and backend tools to provide them with the best fantasy football game play possible.”
While fans can sign up for and create a league within this application without charge, they can also choose to upgrade to premium features, including live scoring and custom reports. Other complimentary features include breaking team and player news, video content and a draft kit, all from partner CBSSports.com.

Bryan - I agree. You guys at FanSection are doing some big things on Facebook.
As a long-time Fantasy Football Information site owner, your efforts to go beyond the small league groupings could certainly help the entire hobby.
Example: could it lead to a true National Champion of Fantasy Football?
Imagine 25-million people all playing in the same league! The winner would be a true champion of Fantasy sports. Kind in mind the World Championship of Poker started out with just 50 players.
Thanks,
Greg Alan
