In this episode of Da Commissioner’s Corner of the DMV Fantasy Football Podcast, host Don welcomes Canadian commissioner TK Simpson for part two of the Commissioner’s Spotlight to dive deep into managing a massive 144-team NCAA/NFL crossover fantasy football league. After opening with brief NBA banter, the conversation explores the origins and inspiration behind building such an expansive multi-conference system, the logistical realities of coordinating complex Sleeper setups, and strategies for recruiting quality managers while preventing commissioner burnout.
