ESPN Films 30 for 30 Silly Little Game

In 1980, a group of writers and academics - and most importantly, baseball fans - met at La Rotisserie Francaise in New York City and created a new game: Rotisserie Baseball. The idea was simple: create your own imaginary baseball team with real baseball players and follow their statistics. With the rise of the internet, their "silly little game" quickly grew in popularity, eventually exploding into a multi-billion dollar industry and revolutionizing the way fans watch and participate in sports. Today, Fantasy Sports has over 30 million participants and a league for almost every sport imaginable. Directors Adam Kurland and Lucas Jansen tell the little-known story of the original fantasy baseball league and its "founding fathers," who never foresaw how their creation would take off and ultimately leave them behind.
