Abstract: An on-line, multi-player internet based application that is adapted for playing fantasy sports, for example, football in which scoring is determined on a team functional unit basis rather than on an individual player basis, with a pre-determined set of actions associated with each fantasy team functional unit, pre-determined values associated with each such action, and corresponding actions from real-life football team functional units resulting from real-life football games used to determine fantasy football team unit values, fantasy football team scores and fantasy football league rankings.

Abstract: An on-line, multi-player internet based application that is adapted for playing fantasy football in the trenches, i.e., for playing fantasy football in a way that accounts for the values associated with the contributions to the overall game made by the special units and players who fight in the trenches, that is, the linemen and special team players.
