Being a fantasy football pro doesn't have to be a fantasy. So much of it is luck and knowing a few key strategies, but the best part might be picking your team name.

Blitz Creek, Sacks and the City, Game of Throws, Drinkers with a Kicking Problem, Teddy Throwsevelt and Real Housewife Who Fantasizes.

  • Last night the New York Liberty claimed the WNBA Commissioner's Cup (Women's National Basketball Association), beating the Las Vegas Aces. The Liberty won their share of $500,000 in prize money. This game was a prelude to what could be the WNBA Championship Finals, as both teams are the top teams in the league. 

  • The Women's World Cup Final is set! Spain, whose players seriously dislike their coach, will take on England on Sunday at 6 am ET. You can tune into Friday's Weekend Preview podcast for all the excitement. 

  • A private jet and a fully staffed mansion are just two of the inclusion in global soccer star Neymar's new $300M contract with the Saudi Arabian soccer team Al Hilal. Neymar, who has the potential to earn up to $400M, joins Cristiano Ronaldo as the latest soccer superstar to join the Saudi Arabian league. 

  • The dark story behind "The Blind Side" is getting darker, with the Tuohy family alleging that Michael Oher tried to "shake them down" for $15M.
