The Big Nosed Jew, Fantasy Pro

We are just two short days away from the first kickoff of the NFL and my boner is getting stiffer by the minute.  My name is Spencer Gilden and let me be honest, I am not the brightest guy in the world when it comes to things like mathematics, current world events and or anything important in this world BUT I will tell you this coach…I KNOW MY SPORTS AND ESPECIALLY MY FANTASY SPORTS.  

I have been doing fantasy sports since before every Tom, Dick and Harry had a league on CBS Sportsline.  Anyone remember doing rotisserie leagues in the Sporting News Magazine where Kenny Lofton or Dan Marino were the most expensive players you could get?  (auction leagues)  Well, I eat, live and breathe fantasy sports.  I have multiple Football, Baseball and Basketball leagues and simply put... I am damn good.  With a nose as big as mine and being that I am a tall skinny Jew, I had to find a passion to overcome my  shortcomings (got a few of those apparently) and find a way to be involved in sports since I wouldn't have chance to play for real.  So  I have lived my life a sports super psycho, taking great pride in memorizing everything about the four major sports and making sure I knew the most about sports among all of my peers.  

Looking back, what did I get out of knowing where Xavier McDaniel A.K.A the X-Man went to college? Well, imagine my SHOCK when I realized that his team's name had a double meaning . For those who don’t know, X-Man went to Wichita State.

Fantasy sports allowed me to take my sports nuttiness and apply it to something other than gambling, which I never really loved to do.  With the Spencer Nose Fantasy blog, I will help my fellow fantasy fans by providing fantasy tips, fantasy projections and overall what I expect to see week in and week out this season.  I will show you that I am not this schmo off the streets of the 5 towns in NY, I will prove I know my s%^t!  I hope to provide you sound advice with a lil humor involved.
