Wow! Yeah this changes things a bit - in a very good way! Like everyone else, I have questions concerning TMR.com subscriptions and Rotopass (helluva a time to win that huh?), but as always I trust Matt and the Beckers to address those in a rational and fair manner.

But to have the TMR crew working for ESPN - that is a dream come true for any fantasy sports enthusiast! If they truly give Matthew the power they appear to have given him, it could bring about a new, far more fan-friendly treatment of fantasy sports than what has passed for "fan friendly" from MLB, CBS, or even Yahoo.

The might of ESPN behind the best fantasy-sports writers in the business is almost too good to be true! Congratulations - this sounds like a natural convergence of Matthew's talents in writing, media and fantasy sports. Good things come for those who love what they do! Kudos!

If you subscribe to ESPN the Magazine you get the Insider for free.  Find some local kid doing a school fundraiser and you can lock in for a lot less than the $36 a year stated earlier, plus get the mag. 

My wife bought me Espen da Mag from our daughters fundraiser. I did not get Insider for free. I thought I might but never any email from ESPN, my magazines just started showing up....like 3 months later.

FYI.

Congrats Matt, all the best in the future. And thanks for all the hard work in the past. Now I'm going to need a new source for deep cover fantasy info, all my league mates are ESPN insiders.

And methinks the Sportsguy just became the second most entertaining writer in their stable of pens.

Find some local kid doing a school fundraiser and you can lock in for a lot less than the $36 a year stated earlier, plus get the mag. So on a selfish note, the free Insider as a premium member does nothing for me. Funny, I actually did this because the free laptop/see britney behaving badly/sex up your screen characters was getting a bit much.

And I should add my congrats as well - like any of us wouldn't accept that deal. But like Postman said somewhere, can't help but feel there's a catch.

Is it the draft kit? Haven't seen an answer for that - if so, again, my apologies.


its actually the other way around - sign up for Insider, get the Mag for free. that's what happened when i signed up... a promotion was up on the site not too long ago and $20 (maybe $30, but i'm pretty sure it was $20) got me a year of Insider and the Mag... not too shabby.

It looks like you can get ESPN Insider as a subscriber to the magazine.  You need information off your label to do so.  I have not tried it yet, but seems pretty straight forward.


Take care.

You sellout bastard.

Just kidding mate, all the best, now that you will be making the big bucks I hope you get to rub shoulders (or something) with the likes of Sharapova.

Oh, and if you come across that Tommy Smyth 'witha woy" from ESPN football, can you punch him for me?? Cheers!

We must go out, and KILL the Cardinals!
