BONDING DURING BALLGAMES
The Hopson boys interest in fantasy sports began quite by accident. Coy had to go to a draft. He and the other owners of the league got together to pick players. His kids came along for the outing.
My wife was working and I had them tagging along, remembers Coy. His kids watched. Got interested. Yada, yada, yada, now theyre hooked.
Travis has several teams he owns with some input from Dad. Tucker has a couple too.
We talk about it constantly, says Coy. Travis in particular has gotten so good at picking players and monitoring injury reports, I ask his advice. He knows more about it than I do.
Besides the fun of watching sports, Coy says it has brought him closer to his kids. Theyll call me in the room and say, Dad, Dad come look at this!

On the web, virtually every major online sports site offers fantasy sports: ESPN, CBS Sports, and The Sporting News. Some charge for the right to play. Others are free. Most allow you to join alone or offer you the option to start your own league. And, as interactiveDAD.com discovered, some sites are easier than others to navigate (see comparison chart).
Some consider fantasy sports legalized gambling. Full disclosure: Many of the football sites offer jackpots to winners. The free sites cost nothing and take the gambling out of the game (unless you form your own league through those sites and offer a jackpot.)
Coy Hopson says fantasy sports have won him a great relationship with his boys. His oldest, Travis, is busy reading about injury reports and preparing to have his own team in his fathers office league. He hopes to winwith a little help from dad no doubt.
