My MLS Fantasy Season Review

My name is Aaron and I hail from Ireland. I am a Fantasy Football fanatic who has played the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) for the past 10 or so years, starting pretty much a little over a third of the way through the Premier League campaign. I played that solely up until the 2011 or the 2012 season of Major League Soccer came out, if you actually want to know when it was from, it was from the season Robbie Keane and Kevin Doyle were playing in it.





Unlike Fantasy Premier League though, when I play Major League Soccer Fantasy or MLS Fantasy, I have the ability to taper off and I lose interest throughout the course of the season. I manage to make it so somewhere like the first International "break", but that's not really a break as the sides in MLS still play their respective games, but basically with for all intents and purposes with a "B Team" in place, but the games still count.

For me, I usually make it until June, when the double rounds or game weeks as I would call it while playing FPL. There are so many Double Rounds in MLS when certain teams play twice in a given Round. From then on in, I basically give up the ghost and my team becomes a "ghost ship", the team will still rack up the points, but there won't be any changes, simply because I've lost interest in my MLS Fantasy side.

I always say that, "this" season, this year will be different, I will do my utmost to keep track of everything happening in MLS Fantasy, transfers, games being postponed / delayed etc, but I always taper off and I forget about my side. This season I stopped after the two week break for the Gold Cup from early to mid June. I never really went back to it and more or less stopped playing and participating in MLS and MLS Fantasy. This shouldn't have happened, I should've carried on.

I am bound to make sure that this time around it will be different, I will participate and play more in MLS Fantasy. I will treat it like FPL, I will engross myself in everything MLS and MLS Fantasy, from general chit chat to everything stats. I will do my utmost to be a success at MLS Fantasy.

Throughout the course of the post season and following on into the preseason this year. I will be writing articles on all the MLS Teams and how they did. Make sure to look out for them. If you wish to write an article, feel free to do one up and submit it here.
