Starting an Ultimate Fantasy football League.

Mission statement

The goal of the American National Fantasy Football Association (ANFFA) is to provide the most challenging, yet most rewarding Dynasty fantasy football experience today.
The ANFFA is committed to making owning a ANFFA team as close to being as realistic to a real NFL team/owner as possible by incorporating such challenges as; both offensive and defensive players, making decisions on your game day lineups as to which different  offensive and defensive schemes you will use against your opponent(s), and 3 free agent periods and a 16 game season. ANFFA also incorporates includes a 54 man roster (53 players plus coach), team salary cap, player contracts, and cap penalties for releasing a player before his contract expires.

ANFFA is committed to bringing you the ultimate Dynasty Fantasy Football experience on game days that will make you want to forget other fantasy football leagues. This is not like those other pussy leagues like Yahoo Fantasy Football, ESPN, or even NFL fantasy football, this is the new bully on the block that will make you forget about the others and cry for your mama if you aren’t in game shape. This is for people who are true DIEHARDS, Its time consuming and you need to do your homework and be up to the latest on all players and positions. !!
