Mark Ringo
Senior Fantasy Analyst / Writer/ Terrible Comedian / Idiot-in-chief
Truly a site to behold. Folks, let’s tell it like it is. Right from the start. Mark Ringo, a man beaten, the once great champ, now a study in mopishness (2023 Fantasy Pros Accuracy Contests- In-Season Ranking 144th / Draft Ranking 235th). No longer, the victory hungry stallion, who’s won so many fantasy titles before, but a pathetic, washed up, aged ex-champion. The chances seem slim, that this once great, has the nerve, the desire to win that he once had. The man has obviously admitted defeat.
*Note-- the video below is an imitation of legendary sportscaster, Howard Cosell. If you don’t know who that is, check out the second video below to get an idea.
(Disclaimer- the first video below is for entertainment purposes only. Please do not race or drive recklessly on the roads.)
Me, “Fantasy football help is on the way. Justice, and our fantasy teams, will triumph! With my lousy advice and terrible jokes, nobody can stop us from winning the title now. Haha! Nobody!
Readers, “What are you, some kind of a nut? Who do you think you are?”
Me, “Da Da Dunn….I am Captain Chaos, (aka Mark Ringo) founder of Sleepers and Busts, the all-new, state-of-the-art, turbocharged fantasy football website. Along with my faithful companion and mascot, Disco. Say hello Disco. Been a cop long? Haha!”
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta’
A real gangsta-ass fantasy analyst plays his cards right
A real gangsta-ass fantasy analyst never runs his mouth
'Cause real gangsta-ass analysts don't start Twitter fights
And everything's cool in the mind of a gangsta’
'Cause gangsta-ass analysts think deep
Up three-sixty-five a year, twenty-four seven
'Cause real gangsta ass analysts don't sleep
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta’
Helping drafters find some late round steals
Although I was born in Chi-town
Now I'm in the league makin' deals
Damn it feels good to be gangsta’
I mean one that you really don’t know
Because when I hit on my longshot sleeper
They’ll remember that score fo’ sho’
Now gangsta-ass analysts come in all shapes and colors
Some got killed with their takes in the past
But this gangsta’ here was a smart one
Started telling awful jokes that will last
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta’
A real gangsta-ass analyst knows how to play
Drafting the players that score TDs
Racking up W’s is my way
These other so called “experts” give lots of stats
Either in their TPS reports or on their fancy sites
But most of those stats don’t matter
It’s all about your players makin’ highlights
In August, these fools talk a lot of smack
That’s not Ringo’s style, he’s no cocky ass, pranksta’
All he cares about is helping folks win titles
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta’
I should have been a farmer. Since the day I was born, I should have been a farmer. I love chickens, pigs, ducks….. kind of fond of nanny goats, I am. You know my dad urged me to get out of this fantasy football analyst game when I was a kid. He pleaded with me. And I meant to, you know what I mean, but he died. Now, look at me. I’m a wet nurse to a bunch of dead-to-the-neck-up, internet trolls and I’m choking to death!
Readers, “Here comes the champ. We mean it. You are the champ. Believe us, you’ve got more guts than you’ve got sense. We love it! So, Ringo who are some of your sleepers this year?”
Ringo, “I don’t know. Let me see who the other fantasy analysts like. I’ll be right back, haha!”
*Note- I now have the capability to be on fantasy football podcasts. I have no idea what I’m doing yet, but my readers would say, why start now? Haha! Anyway, if any of my fellow fantasy football analysts out there want a guest- send me a note. My info is on the Contact tab up above. Maybe one of these days we can talk some football?

(*Note- I was leading the QB rankings after 16 weeks and was up there for a good part for the season, so I’m counting that as a win for at least having a good year. I haven’t seen the final results. Unfortunately, the owner of the Fantasy Nation website. Emil Kadlec, has passed away. I never met Emil, but he was one of the few people in the industry to let me compete in an accuracy contest against some of the more well known names. We had a lot in common. We were both veteran fantasy players who started playing in the old days (pre-internet). Please say a prayer for his family and friends. He will be missed.)

Hi, welcome to my website! My motto with my fantasy football advice is this, "Try Not to Suck", haha! That said, I'm what you would call a veteran fantasy football player. I've been playing for over thirty years. I'd like to say that I've won titles every year and never lost, but that's tough to do, at least with a straight face. What I have done is consistently made the playoffs and won several titles during that span. I started playing back in 1991 with my friends at college and was hooked ever since.
Whether you're an experienced fantasy football player like myself or a rookie trying to learn the ropes, thanks for stopping by. I'll try to write articles that cater to each of you, except for my no-good friends Chad and Kelly, whose teams have crushed many of my title dreams throughout the years. Curse your miserable hides you slugs! Anyway, I digress, where was I? Oh yeah, fantasy football, it's the greatest game out there….even with those two. I hope you folks love it as much as I do.
