How to Play Fantasy Football - All about fantasy football's point system

Hello, my name is Frank Torres, and I am here on behalf of Expert Village and this segment is on the point system in Fantasy Football. The point system in Fantasy Football is one crazy thing. Their points are constantly being added and subtracted throughout the course of an NFL Sunday. Let me give and example of how a point system might work. Let's say Peyton Manning throws a touchdown pass to his favorite receiver Marvin Harrison. Well, Peyton Manning's owner will be awarded at least six points, plus the yardage from the throw. Marvin Harrison's owner will be awarded the score for the touchdown, usually six points, the yardage for the pass he caught and maybe a point for the reception. Now, the owner for the defense might get points subtracted from his score, because his defense allowed the Colts to score that touchdown. Now this can get crazy. There are all sorts of conflict of interest the take place. What if you are Peyton Manning's owner and in the same weekend you have your defense playing against them. Do you hope that Peyton Manning passes the ball all the way down to the one and then gets stuffed, or do you let them score and then have your defense get penalized for it? What if he throws an interception and your defense pick it off and run it all the way backs for a touchdown. Peyton Manning will lose the points for throwing that interception but your defense will gain the points from catching the interception and running it back for the touchdown. It gets completely insane at times and I guess that's why we are grateful for point trackers.
