26-Dec-06. So you think you could run a pro team? Globe and Mail, B5.

Big Bucks Footy is an online fantasy soccer game that allows players to manage their teams to compete for real prize money. Tim Lloyd, vice-president of BigBucks Games Interactive Inc., which has developed the game, says that it does not involve gambling and is 100-per-cent skills-based. A test version of the game is scheduled to go live on January 2nd. An increasing number of similar online skill games are being developed where players compete for cash prizes but few are profitable.
