It’s nearly September and that means one thing: football season is back and if you’re taking part in a fantasy league, you might want a guide to the best fantasy football trophies.
The National Foot Ball League, a.k.a. the NFL, started in 1920 and consists of 32 teams divided between two main conferences: the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). These days, the NFL’s regular season runs for 18 weeks from early September to early January, with each team playing 17 games and having one bye week.
After the regular season ends, seven teams from each conference advance to the playoffs, which culminate in the Super Bowl, held on the first Sunday in February. Since the creation of the Super Bowl, which is played between champions of the NFC and AFC, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots hold the title for the most championship titles at six each.
Fantasy football is a popular online game where people create virtual teams made up of real NFL players. These virtual teams compete against each other based on the actual performances of the players in real NFL games. Participants in fantasy football leagues draft players onto their teams, manage their rosters, and make strategic decisions to accumulate points and ultimately win matchups against other participants.
According to Britannica.com, “fantasy football emerged in 1962 when Bill Winkenbach, then part owner of the Oakland Raiders football team, gathered with some friends in a New York City hotel, and together they created the first fantasy football league, which was dubbed the GOPPPL (Greater Oakland Professional Pigskin Prognosticators League).” Here’s a roundup of the best and most unique fantasy football trophies.
