You just decide what fantasy sport you want to play.  Yahoo fantasy sports is a good site and I like the way their leagues are set up (I've played in others and they were not as user friendly).  You can sign up to play in a public league and you'll be randomly assigned to a league.  Your team will be picked by autodraft then but you can still trade players and pick up other players.  Then it's just a matter of keeping your line up set to play.  Basketball and baseball take more work because they have so many games but you can set your line up for several days in advance. \n\nIt's really fun if you have enough friends and coworkers to have a private league where everyone in the league knows everyone.  You can do a lot of smack talk and make crazy trades and it's really fun.  It's really fun too if you can do a live draft (where everyone is either on line at one time choosing or you actually go to a sports bar and pick in person).  Just a warning for a live draft---that is alot of work for the commissioner because then they have to go in and assign all the players to each person's team.  Autodraft is easier but not as much fun.\n\nJust go to the yahoo fantasy website and you can get started.  It's fun and I hope you get a good team the first time out!\n\nOops---I thought of one more thing.  In some leagues you have a maximum number of times you can play a position, or maximum number of innings pitched, etc. so you might want to check on that too.  It's bad at the end of the season when you are all out of players because you didn't know about that and sometimes started people just to be starting them.

You need to talk to owners and managers of local businesses and tell them you have a youth basketball league and see if they would sponsor a team.

1. Starting Your Own Business. \n\nStarting an independent business of your own offers several advantages. You are free from contractual obligations required from franchisees, and from any precedents established by the previous business owner. You are able to start on a fresh, clean slate with total control on how the business is shaped and managed. You are free to offer a pioneering and proprietary product that could help you dominate your market. You can start with a bang, or at a slower pace, depending on your resources and entrepreneurial goals. There is no required upfront investment that you must raise; except for the level that you think your business requires to be successfully launched. You can choose the location you want, determine the products and service that you market, and decide whether you need employees or not.\n\nThe downside of starting a business from scratch could also be numerous. A new business entails greater risk than buying an established business or franchise. You need to determine whether a need exists for your products or service; and if it does, work to create awareness and branding. The start-up process also necessitates you to do the groundwork process by yourself - from business licenses and permits, establishing relations with suppliers, and establishing a customer base to support operations. Many new start-up businesses, particularly home businesses, find it hard to secure financing given the lack of operating histories and inexperience of the people involved.\n\nA new business will require a longer period of time to show profits, if at all. Entrepreneurs who decide on venturing on their own must be willing to dedicate considerable time and energy to establishing and nurturing the business.\n\n2. Franchising. \n\nFranchising incorporates the features of both a start-up and an existing operation. The franchise is the right to sell a product or service. When you purchase a franchise you are basically paying for the right to market an already established product or service owned by somebody else (the franchisor). Under your franchise agreement, you (the franchisee) are expected to market the product/service successfully.\n\nThis alternative route to business ownership has some distinct advantages. Risk is minimized, since a well-established franchise has a proven business method with established products or services. Franchises like McDonald's already has well-known name that could easily bring customers to the business and provide a competitive advantage for the franchisee.\n\nMany franchise organizations also provide extensive assistance in terms of marketing, advertising, even managerial support. Oftentimes, management training and follow-up assistance are provided. In many instances, In addition, you can realize cost savings on inventory items, supplies and equipment due to bulk purchase orders made by the franchisor, which in turn is passed on to franchisees. Some franchisors also assist the franchisee in securing financing, while some provide the funding themselves. Franchisees find it easier to convince banks and other lenders to provide loans because franchises are less risky than start-up businesses. Support can also be given in finding the right location, while some provide the layout, display, facilities and business techniques that have already proven successful in previous operations.\n\nFranchising could present problems to the business owner. At the onset, the high franchise fees required to be paid to the franchisor at the start of the franchise agreement may discourage any prospective business owners. Front fees can range from a few thousand dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on the franchise. While some franchisors may require high initial fees, the trade-off may be poor support functions once the operations begin.\n\nIn addition to the upfront fees, royalty fees are also required on a monthly basis. The royalty fees are monthly payments based on a cert

well first off, you better be in some sort of sports management or sports law program.  and you better send your resume to every single team at least once.  some mlb teams get close to 1000 apps for every internship

Law school would be a good start.  Preferably at a major sports institution that also offers an entertainment law program.  Then you can connect with some of the star athletes as they graduate with you.

Spurs since the David Robinson/Avery Johnson days. I'm also a fan of Grant Hill, so I'll watch whatever team he plays for. \n\nNot really sure how you start being a fan. I guess you either pick your local team (the Knicks?) and start watching games. The fastest way to get hooked is by going to a live game. then you'll start watching on TV.
