	Our Philosophy on Fantasy Draft Sports Contests
		We feel that these drafts promote a better understanding of sports, better knowledge of who the actual athletes are, as well as a greater understanding of the rules of each sport.
		This is unlike most or all other drafts which don't pay out any of their monthly, weekly, or end of season prizes until after the season has ended, and in some cases several months later.
		For example; a fantasy draft might say that the prizes are $50,000, then state that is based on a total number of entries reaching 6,000, and if they do not receive the 6,000 entries the prize money then will be a percentage of the total entry fees received.
