The Fantasy Football world lost one of our "Founding Fathers" on May 16 this year when Kevin Austin died unexpectedly at the age of 47.
We knew Kevin as the founder of MyFantasyLeague.com But he was so much more. People that knew him closely loved him as a friend, a son, a brother, an uncle, a father and a husband.
Whether you run your league on MFL, or one of the giants like ESPN, Yahoo, or NFL.com, you should know that Kevin had a hand in your Fantasy Football experience this year. MyFantasyLeague forced the big corporations to up their offerings, and fantasy owners everywhere benefitted. This happened because a little site like Kevin's MyFantasyLeague pushed the ball forward and pressured the big sites to follow.
Thank you, Kevin Austin.
Every year we donate $50 from each Footballguys Players Championship league that drafts in the Labor Day Weekend Draft-A-Thon. This year we'll be donating that money to a college education fund for Kevin's two daughters.
