Does anyone know if there are any fantasy sports documentaries out there?
secondly i have a friend who is both a big fantasy sports fan and an amateur movie maker and he has been discussing the idea of making a documentary on fantasy sports, but we were having trouble coming up with the correct way to approach it. I curious to see if anyone had ideas on how to document fantasy sports that what would make things most interesting to those who do not know that much about it. |

Well, the role of porn in fantasy sports has been done to death, so don't go there...
I think it would be interesting to see if real players also play fantasy sports. I dunno if they can talk about their own sports (betting on their teams?) but in general the scope of fantasy sports has gotten pretty wide. The fact that regular sports broadcasts will insert "fantasy sports updates" is kind of cool.

If anyone else has any further info on A New Fantasy Sports Documentary – “Fantasy Nation” pass it on. I was not able to find anything on it or its maker.
I think espn has talke to players before about playing fatansy sports. I personally would be interested in the history of fantasy sports, though i am not sure if that would translate well to the general public.
