RSJ Team Overview
Team Goals:
As with any team, it all starts with the “Why.” Our Mission Statement aims to capture this all:
So many fantasy football owners wander through the RotoSphere like lost sheep. This is at no fault of their own, as this booming industry is jam-packed with groupthink and garbage-spewing “experts.”
No longer. Using a football-exclusive, user-driven, and stock-market approach, the Roto Street Journal aims to break this noise and create a Wolfpack that feasts upon the sheep and fantasy world.
Thus, our Mission is entirely selfless and selfish all at once. Everything we do is rooted in providing the advice and guidance to create winning wolves. Unlike the popular notion, we DO care about your fantasy team, and want it to dominate your opponents into submission.
Yet, in this process, we also want to forge a legacy as the GOAT. You see, just like with his fantasy picks, The Wolf is all about chasing ceilings and maximizing upside. Thus, we are not content making a mere “name for ourselves” in the fantasy world. While this becoming our full-time “jobs” would be sweet, our ambitions stretch far wider. This is about taking over the fantasy world and becoming legends.
It’s an American Dream narrative ripe for Hollywood. Are you ambitious and talented enough to be part of it?
Roster Makeup:
Spearheaded by a current special education teacher turned Fantasy Expert, the Roto Street Journal is composed of loosely connected parties glued together by three common factors:
- Our incurable fantasy addictions
- Our #BigFantasyBrains due to aforementioned addictions
- Our desire to chase the American Dream and use our addictions / #BigFantasyBrains to take over the fantasy world
Whether a friendly acquaintance from high school, to said acquaintance’s cousins, to former teaching partners and every mild link in between, we love the game, each other, and brainstorming ways to revolutionize the industry. Consider our story the demon baby of Entourage, The League, and Silicon Valley.
Currently, Our writing team consists of contributors at major blogs like SB Nation and English / Communications majors from some of the nation’s finest colleges.
We have a professional audio-technician that produces our podcast in between touring sessions with bands like Creed (yes, we can take you higher).
We have personalities that were born for the big screen, and someday will be there.
Our Media Team sports professional-level producers, and is ripe for expansion (hence, this advertisement).
And of course, our fantasy talent is a natural byproduct of our aforementioned addictions.
RSJ Strengths & Values:
Our team has a multitude of strengths. Though we all bring unique skills and perspectives to the table, all of us demonstrate the following six core values that serve as our pillars. In no particular order, since they are each of equal importance:
- Hustle – Effort, drive, motivation, productivity. Essentially, getting shit done with no excuses. Working hard, smart, and fast. Taking initiative and not sitting around waiting to be told. Just DOING. Of everything we value, this is the most controllable. We can out hustle every fantasy site out there.
- Talent: Yes, you actually have to be good at whatever skill you’re bringing to the table. Just like Bill Belichick, The Wolf loves versatile talents who are willing to mold into whatever the team may need at any given moment. The more you bring to the table, the better.
- Passion / Commitment: This is the easy one, since this comes with addiction. Yet, our team members show an avid love and motivation for both fantasy and what we’re creating here. We’re all in it for the long haul, and only want members willing to run this marathon alongside us with equal fervor.
- Ingenuity + Innovation: Perhaps the most important of all factors, we are built of forward-thinkers who are constantly brainstorming unique content and distribution ideas to make a David Johnson like emergence. We recognize the need to differentiate from this dense fantasy pack, and strive to put out the most unique, game-changing content, in the most creative ways, on the most untapped channels. Plenty of flags still need to be planted throughout the Rotosphere, and we intend to nail them all down with authority.
- Consistency / Dependability: We get done what we promise, no excuses. And we don’t promise or bite off more than we can chew. Our reliability forms a strong company culture of togetherness and commitment, all while allowing us to maximize many important factors like SEO and publishing times, creating multiple mediums for content, and leveraging our creativity for major group projects.
- Authenticity / Honesty: Arguably the greatest part of working here is the ability to be your truest self. We won’t filter out your true voice, but rather feed it. In turn, we foster an honest team who work harmoniously with no bullshit to sift through.
