Fantasy Life is thrilled to have several finalists for the annual FSWA (Fantasy Sports Writers Association) awards. 

We just wanted to take a moment and share some of the truly excellent work that has been recognized by the FSWA. Enjoy!

Cooterdoodle's “State of the Team” series — Finalist for Best Short-Form Video

You can watch the full series here (and it's well worth your time!) or click below for the infamous “State of the Bears” short:

Fantasy Life on SiriusXM - Finalist for Best Radio Show

The Fantasy Life Show was on seven days a week during the 2024-25 season, featuring Kendall Valenzuela, Adam Ronis, Gene Clemons, Chris Manzo, Marcas Grant, Lawrence Jackson Jr., and Nando Di Fino. 

You can tune in to SiriusXM channel 87 (or find us on the app) for our week from Radio Row, and check the highlight show below for a taste of what we do every day. 

Jake Trowbridge's “5 Stages of a Fantasy Season” - Finalist for Best Short Form Video

Jake Trowbridge is a video-making genius. If we had to pick one, this is it, but man … how can you? You can check Jake out weekly on the audio-only show The Flex for more fun, and he'll be part of our Dynasty-themed shows over the next few months. 

John Laghezza - Finalist for Just About Everything

We're not sure if John was nominated for his work here or at The Athletic, but when you are a finalist for Baseball Writer of the Year AND Football Writer of the Year, along with Best Article nods for both football and baseball? The next question is probably “where can I read more?” We just happen to have a free daily Betting Life newsletter that we can safely say is like no other betting newsletter you've ever read. It is premium content, a fantastic read, and filled with John-isms everywhere. 

You can sign up for it here or if you want to have a look at it first, here's his latest – which includes a DEEP DIVE on Scorigami.

Congrats to everyone nominated! And good luck from all of your colleagues at Fantasy Life.
