Publication number: 20230277948Abstract: A fantasy sports management system provides an interaction between fantasy sports and real-time sporting events. In embodiments, the system receives real-time statistical information regarding a plurality of sports players participating in one or more real-time sporting events. The sports players are assigned to teams in a fantasy sports league. The system outputs, on a display of a device of one of the users of the fantasy sports league, the real-time statistical information of the plurality of sports players that are on the user’s roster of sports players. In response to the real-time statistical information of one of the sports players on the user’s roster exceeding a threshold (e.g., the team of the one of the sports players entering the “red zone”), the system provides the user with an option to view the real-time sporting event in which the one player is participating in.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Michael Neil MACCALLUM, Mark Aleksandar JOTANOVIC, Marco Joseph GATTI

Patent number: 10183224Abstract: A fantasy sports management system includes a wireless transceiver and a processor. the wireless transceiver is configured to communicate sports-related information to a mobile device that includes a fantasy sports management application. The processor is in communication with the wireless transceiver. Real-time sports information is received from the fantasy sports management application on the mobile device. An input is received requesting the fantasy sports management application to suggest a starter for a roster of the mobile device user. Roster information is received relating to the user and other users' fantasy sports teams. A determination is made regarding whether the rosters of the user and the other users are substantially similar. If they are, a suggestion of changing the user's roster is made and sent so that the user has the ability to change his roster to more aligned with the roster of the other users.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2014Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Inventors: Michael Neil MacCallum, Mark Aleksandar Jotanovic, Marco Joseph Gatti
