So your new to fantasy football, your probably wondering how long a season lasts.  You might also be wondering what happens within the season and what you, as the team owner, should do to play this game successfully.  Here are a few things you need to know about any fantasy football season and the kind of fun you and your fantasy league can look forward to:

The fantasy football season is usually as long as the NFL regular season and also as intense. That means you'll have 17 weeks of nail biting action to enjoy.  

You will be playing against one other team owner each week.  As each week passes, you rack up points depending on how well (or badly) your players perform. If they earn you enough wins during your leagues regular season, you can make it into your leagues playoffs, which gives you a good chance of taking a shot at your league's championship.

Playing within a fantasy football season
Every week, each team owner will submit a list of his/her starters, called the starting lineup.  If there are any changes in the lineup, they have to be implemented before the player deadline which is usually 5 minutes before kickoff of that players game for the week.

Making these weekly changes is important if you want to maximize player performance.  If you don't, you will retain your previous week's lineup and could lose plenty of points. Especially when player's have a bye week.

Fantasy football isn't a game for dummies or lazy people unless you have Fantasy Football Power on your side.  In one fantasy football season, expect to be making plenty of changes in your roster.  You will also have to be on the lookout for anything that will affect your team's points.  Injuries, trades and violations will matter, especially if one or several of your players are involved. Fantasy Football Power provides you with all its hard work throughout the week and posts that important stuff every day to its members area that you'll want to be on the look out for when you want to  enter in your final starting roster each week. 

Watch out for the bye week
The week where an NFL team takes a break is called the bye week.  Within the fantasy football season, the bye week can significantly impact your standing in your league.  A player who belongs to your team and then has a bye week won't earn you any points.  If you don't watch out for this transition, you could waste the opportunity of using an active player instead.

Don't wait for the start of the season to begin making your decisions about which players to pick. The best fantasy football players know that the pre-season is an important period for team owners to decide on their strategy.
