Im in for a hundo, but you will need to convince the other sharks to come in also..

Ill go in with you, and ill put up $200, but i want 10% of the total profits for the next 20 years along with a 5% interest in the company.

So you work on an idea for 6 years and right when you're ready to launch you come post on Tigerdroppings (not even the money board) looking for some advice?

Seems like a flawless plan. I'm sure you have an impeccable business model and your product will revolutionize fantasy sports.

I'd love to find an investor from La. to do this project. It involves sports, mainly football. It will be high profile and well known world wide.

How are you going to get around the current ban on online gambling in the US? What will stop DOJ from shutting you down like they did online poker?

I'm not here to do research for you. Develop your idea, get some sales experience, make it work on a small scale and come back. Maybe Mark Cuban will work with you. But I just cant see us getting along.

No but you can throw out unfounded bs you're guessing at?

You think you know, but you just don't know. 40 million people play fantasy football, how can you do it on a small scale??

I think it would work if the prize was $200K. But it will work faster with 1 mil., don't you think. I can't get into defending this thing b/c I can't tell you the most important huge aspects you're not getting and I can't get into. I've let out about 25% of the projects guts.

There's more than just the money involved in the prize.

I contacted Shark Tank.

I have completely developed show treatment, biz plan, power points and it's registered with the Writers Guild. Can't patent it. Can't start small- no reason to.

Fantasy Football is going to be made a high stakes experience.

The biggest payout in Fantasy Football in history and become a celebrity of sorts. 40 million people played this year and all of them played for less.

From the time of investment to getting paid back will be 3 months. Invest in June and get paid initial investment back plus.

We don't want any blank checks. We want to go over any checks ahead of time if you want to be hands on. Deposit the big payout 200K to 1 mil) to a bank or something similar. Website design, espn, yahoo, cbs ad banners, production costs and we're ready to rock.

The guts of this project are fantastic. I'm getting depressed b/c this season went by without us doing it again. There is some really cool BIG things that are associated with this.

If you believe that this idea is possible b/c of Fantasy football popularity and have some access to a possible investor, think about getting in touch. If someone here wants a very nice finders fee as the go between, then that's in play as well.

Believe me! I am fricking depressed enough to come on TD and throw this out there. It's serious weight, though.

I believe there are all walks of life on TD, so maybe someone would want to turn their lil couple million into much more in three months time. I'm so tired of being poor, I come crawling from the dessert of American dreams looking for one reader to have the light bulb turn on.

BTW, how much in licensing fees are you planning to give the NFL? And other leagues too, since you're planning on international exposure.

---

$25,000- Same as Yahoo, Cbs, ESPN.. etc

(this is for the right to use the nfl stats and player names)

Aren't what you're really asking for is a sponsor?

The $300k you need to "start" the product would be investments for a share of the company. Nobody is going to put up prize money as an investment.

haha let me guess? Fantasy sports stock market? Already done kiddo.

Well good luck man I hope you get the investors you are looking for.
