A roundup of recent posts on the FSB News page.

– Electronics retail chain Best Buy will be presenting a weekly fantasy football game this season. Among the few details currently available on the game’s early sign-up page are that celebrities will be involved as weekly competitors, prizes will include laptops, game consoles and other such products that you can typically find at Best Buy. FSTA president and LeagueSafe founder Paul Charchian said via Facebook that he has been working with Best Buy in this effort. We’ll have more in the coming days on what to expect. Best Buy previously partnered with Fanball on a fantasy football game in 2004.

– The FF Librarian has opened up the fantasy football rankings accuracy challenge for this season. Anyone who publishes rankings before the start of the regular season can submit his or her efforts to fflibrarian@gmail.com to be included. Check here for a full explanation. Last year’s winner was Fantazzle.

– There aren’t too many avenues for a fantasy player to pursue college basketball, but one is the Big Chief Challenge on FCBLZone.com with Perry Missner, friend to FSB.com, former World Fantasy Games associate editor and one of the few writers out there devoted to fantasy college hoops.
