OWNER · H. CASTELLANO

We did not pay $3.4M a year to watch field goals. Win this one and we're hosting a playoff game.

Owner patience
DECISION REQUIREDYOUR MOVE

Three calls. One chair.

A field goal ties it. A first down keeps the winning drive alive. Give the ball back and you'll need a stop. What’s your call?

A fictional situation with scripted outcomes. Your league begins in the front office.

HOW A SEASON GOES

  1. 01

    Take a seat

    Inherit a roster, a payroll and an owner’s mandate. Someone else made the mess.

  2. 02

    Make the calls

    The trade. The extension. The draft pick. Build the club you can afford.

  3. 03

    Survive the owner

    Your decisions add up. The owner decides whether you get another year.

CHOOSE YOUR SPORT

Different rulebooks.
Same hot seat.

A long summer or a hard cap.
What kind of front office would you run?

BASEBALLTHE GM SEAT

Build for October.

A 162-game front office. A 26-man roster, a 40-man, and a farm system with its own problems.

  • Work through extensions, arbitration and the winter market.
  • Trade prospects for a pennant race—or sell to build the next one.
  • Put your money into scouting, development and the roster.
  • Step into the dugout for the pitching changes and pinch hitters.

FOOTBALLDRAFTANOMICS FRANCHISE

Every dollar has a cost.

Build a football roster under the salary cap. The room you create today can become tomorrow's dead money.

  • Weigh extensions, franchise tags and contract restructures.
  • Decide who makes the roster and who gets another shot on the practice squad.
  • Set your draft board and invest in the players you believe in.
  • Make the trade that helps now without emptying next year's cupboard.
