1 Who are you? Where do you live?

I am Matt Amundson. I live in Menasha Wisconsin, about 45 mins south of Green Bay. A Bengals fan living in the frozen tundra. Still cheer for the Pack and saw we have one other Wisco person in here.

2 Tell us about your fantasy football experience, including the types of leagues you play in and where they are hosted.

I have been in many redraft leagues. I am still in two leagues with buddies from high school. One is a PPR redraft and the other is a partial keeper league (The Tom Mahoney Bowl... Northeastern Wisconsin people will only know that name). Also, just joined a 24 team empire league and that is how I found out about this league from Mark. We are still drafting in that league but that is a dynasty league that eliminates one person a year. So far so good in that league. I'm feeling pretty good about my team even though it is a 24 team league. OBJ makes any team look pretty good though. Other than that I'm pretty new to dynasty leagues.

3 Why do you want to be part of Roster Wars...what drew your interest?

First I was trying to set up a league or switch a league I was in to a similar format but I was gaining enough interest and then when Mark posted something about it I had to check it out. Right from the first page I was overwhelmed and knew I wanted to take some part in this league. Plus the biker gang prospect getting in is amazing. Also love the side bets that take place every week.!

4 How much time in a typical week do you spend on your fantasy football hobby?

Since I joined the empire league I spend at least a couple hours a day on it. If not more because I am addicted to the draft and what people have to say. After the draft I am sure I wont be on for hours a day but I will be checking if everyday and now with this league probably still be on hours a day.

5 Talk about a favorite memory or crazy fantasy football related story.

My best fantasy season was in the early 2000's when I drafted Payton and Harrison and they went off with the Colts and lead me to my first championship. That was a fun year sitting back and dominating a league. One of my worst was trading Demaryius Thomas for Jamaal Charles last year and having him make my team the highest scoring ever in the league the week after I got him to being injured the next week, putting me in the same shit situation I was in before I traded for him. By the way I am bad luck for any RB that I have. Last year I had Hyde, Charles, then picked up Rawls, and I am not positive but I think I had one more that went down but I cant think of who it was.

6 What do you think members of your other leagues would say about you as an owner?

Third place champ... I am great at making the playoffs just not at finishing the job. I would like to think that I am an active owner and willing to trade when it is fair. Its tough to say because my leagues are all with my buddies so they would just call me some names I am sure are against conduct on here. I guess I could answer that question better after this yeah being in a new league with different people.

7 Anything else you would like to add?

WHO DEY!!! Yes I know I saw the game and yes I know they can't get out of the first round of the playoffs. Maybe that's why we are a perfect fit. On that note I have forgiven Burfict for his actions and can't wait for him to rip a Steelers head off or two. Sorry Bell owners that wasn't a dirty play, Hines Ward was a dirty play and you all know it!

8 Are you joining to be a friend of the league or do you you intend to start out as a prospect?

I want to be a prospect. I love fantasy football and I love a challenge!

Welcome Matt!!! Glad to see another Wisconsinite here. Dan (Muskego Muskies) is also in Wisco. How did you become a Bengal fan? Grow up here?

Make yourself comfortable here, it's the best place on earth for fantasy and community. The people are top notch and there's rarely a dull moment.

Andy will set you up with the prospect stuff. Post often and read the bylaws several times and don't be afraid to ask questions!!!

Welcome aboard Matt! Glad to see another new person here as I will now take the title of "Newbie" away from my name and place it here. I can do that, can't I? shrug

Just so you know, Roster Wars will now become your most visited page in your browser history which is a good thing, it helps bury all those porn sites. embarrassed

I already know I'm on here too much because when my wife walks by when I'm on the computer, she's already saying, "You're on that site again?"

This is a fun place to talk football & everything else.

Yeah you were the first one I noticed from Wisco and was glad to see another Wisconsin person on the site. Love the team name and I grew up a Packers fan and still root for them but was a huge Corey Dillon fan back in the day and always loved the Bengal striped helmets. Then, one day my favorite player of all time went and became a Jet and I was not happy so I traded in my green and gold for black and orange. I know that sounds awful but at least it wasn't for better weather. I ended up taking on worst by not staying with the Pack, but when they played the Steelers in the super bowl I dusted off my Sterling Sharpe jersey and was pure green and gold lol. WHO DEY AND GO PACK GO!

Btw Matt, Carla is a normal human being unlike me so disregard my above joke. Carla is a good sport but agree with Ed no more face-time. Time to pick on Nick instead.
