Peterborough, Canada, 2015 - Fantasy
Football is currently a multibillion-dollar industry, and is projected by Forbes to be a
$70-billion-dollar industry within the next few years. Its impressive growth will
only bring more and more users to sites that offer reliable player projections
and other fantasy-football resources. Canadian football-enthusiast Adam Beamer
is attempting to gain funding via Kickstarter for a fantasy football resource
created by fanatics, for fanatics. The aim is to put a site in place that is
entirely fan-centered, as opposed to being controlled by a large, soulless
corporation that has no real interest in football.
This
wiki-based resource is already in the beta stage, but requires additional
funding in order to progress to the next level. The funds that Beamer is
seeking will allow the site to fully develop its calculations module, secure
the server power needed to run it, and create and implement an advertising
campaign that will allow it to hit the critical mass needed for initial and
continued success.
Fantasy football sites powered by the likes
of Yahoo and CBS have millions of dollars at their disposal. However, what they
don’t have is genuine passion and interest in the sport. Perhaps WikiPigSkin
marks the dawn of a new era in which fantasy football resources will remain in
the hands of people who truly care about the football. You can check out the
Kickstarter page at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/624332336/wikipigskin-fantasy-football-website
