NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
Mike Ditka is fighting for the rights and pensions of retired NFL Football Players. They are so beat up and debilitated that the hospital is more than a way of life for them. Their pensions are so meager that every day is a day wondering where the money will come from to go on.
Mike is advertising a Fantasy Football league with a prize purse of 250,000 bucks. The money raised will go to help these retired players.
In 2007, Mike Ditka was announced as the Commissioner of the newly founded Ultimate Fantasy Football League (UFFL) [1]. The UFFL will award $250,000, the largest prize purse ever given out in Fantasy Football.[7] Every week for 17 weeks the UFFL will pay out combined $6,000 among the top 200 teams in the world, and further, gives the player an opportunity to play in the UFFL’s Ultimate Bowl, where the UFFL will crown the first World’s Fantasy Football Champion and award $100,000 to the winner. source
