Fantazzle Fantasy Sports Games and Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens are excited to announce a new sponsorship brought together by Curv Sports. Fantazzle is an online fantasy sports game site specializing in fantasy football games that offer daily and weekly fantasy games for all major US sports while Curv Sports works with Ray Rice and other personalities to help deliver their digital media strategies.

Ray Rice had this to say about Fantazzle: “Wanted you all to check out Fantazzle Fantasy Games – http://www.fantazzle.com. Fantazzle has cool fantasy games for baseball, racing, golf and, of course, football. In the upcoming months, we’ll have a Ray Rice fantasy football game I’ll be sponsoring with free autographed and cash prizes. Take a look – www.fantazzle.com.”

Fantazzle is excited to have Ray Rice as a sponsor for the months leading up to the football season and having Rice as the face of its 2010 fantasy football games and site at the start of the football season.

“Fantazzle is excited to partner with Ray Rice and Curv Sports. Ray was one of the top fantasy football players in the NFL last year and is sure to be a game changer in fantasy football games this year. Like Ray, Fantazzle is looking to break out in the 2010 fantasy football season,” said Ryan Parr, the founder and CEO of Fantazzle Fantasy Sports Games. Hooking up with a big name, not only in fantasy football, but an established NFL running back, is exciting for the company as each look to make 2010 an even bigger year than previous ones. Both are looking to build off of their momentum and continue to improve their game.

In standard fantasy football leagues last year, Rice was an overall top ten player and was the fourth best fantasy football running back behind guys who were considered locks (Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson and Maurice Jones-Drew). Rice was the undisputed surprise of the 2009 fantasy football season. That factor was a big reason why Parr wanted Rice to be a partner of Fantazzle. Like the Baltimore Ravens running back last year, Fantazzle.com created a surprise of its own in the fantasy sports industry in 2008. In the company’s first year of operation, the Fantasy Sports Trade Association (FSTA) and Fantasy Football Librarian (FFL) awarded the fantasy site as the #1 pre-season fantasy football player ranking site in the industry as published in the New York Times. That award meant that Fantazzle was the best player ranking site from over 20 fantasy football sites, including ESPN, Yahoo, and CBS Sports. Fantazzle and Rice both have created a name for themselves in their respective fields.

The sponsorship is at a perfect time as Fantazzle.com will be providing a great lineup of 2010 fantasy football games. Fantazzle will be offering a fantasy football salary cap game, a challenge fantasy football game (which is a unrestricted fantasy football salary cap game), a unique fantasy football pick’em game not available on any other fantasy football site, and a new fantasy football bracket game that will be much like a NCAA March Madness game. Fantazzle has just released its first fantasy bracket game with a 2010 Fantasy World Cup Game and will create a similar fantasy football bracket game for 2010. Fantazzle’s fantasy sports software continues to improve with each sport.

Fantazzle.com not only offers fantasy football games, but also offers fantasy baseball games, fantasy racing games, fantasy golf games, fantasy basketball games, fantasy hockey games and the aforementioned 2010 fantasy World Cup game. Fantazzle is not a traditional fantasy sports game site which provide games for a full sports season. Instead, Fantazzle provides games that are played over a shorter duration. Currently, Fantazzle offers daily fantasy baseball games, weekly fantasy racing games and weekly fantasy golf games. In addition to the unique time duration characteristic, Fantazzle’s fantasy games are not draft style games, but football games that allow you to draft whoever you want, whenever you want. You draft your team at any time and Fantazzle’s fantasy football game software will randomly place players into leagues as soon as the first NFL football game starts. If you are not lucky enough to draft Ray Rice on your traditional season long fantasy football team, you will always be able to draft him on any Fantazzle fantasy football game. The flexibility fantasy football software allows for any team to own any player in the NFL.

With the sponsorship of Ray Rice and Fantazzle.com, the fantasy site will be creating a Ray Rice free fantasy football game each week of the NFL season while the sponsorship takes place. Ray will be announcing on the network CurvSports.com has helped create, www.rayrice27.com, and his Facebook and Twitter accounts, the free Ray Rice fantasy football games that will give away Ray Rice autographed prizes along with other cash prizes that Fantazzle will contribute. While the fantasy football season is a couple of months away, you can join Fantazzle right now and play in Fantazzle’s free Fantasy World Cup game for $1,000 in cash prizes, daily fantasy baseball games twice every day, weekly fantasy baseball games, weekly fantasy racing games, and weekly fantasy golf games every week until the fantasy football season starts.
