Homeless man wins ESPN fantasy football 2011
January 22nd, 2011 - 1:45 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattMassachusetts, Jan 21 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A homeless man showed a lot of determination and will to succeed to ultimately win the ESPN Fantasy Football 2011.
Nathan Harrington is a homeless man from Massachusetts. He had no computer to keep track of his progress but that did not stop him from playing until the end. He used computers from several places and even at a point had her fiancée pull over so that he could use the computer at the Beverly library.
Harrington also went to where his father is staying, Blueberry Hill nursing home in Beverly, and used the computer there. Those efforts eventually paid off when he won the ESPN Fantasy Football 2011.
Harrington just suffered an accident and he is recovering. He revealed that he got interested in continuing the game on ESPN.com when he realized that he was in the top 50 players. He managed to win the contest wit his Boston Beatdowns by beating the nearest rival by less than a point.
For his prize, ESPN will give Harrington $3,500 gift certificate that he can use at any Best Buy shop. Harrington didn’t seem to want the card because he has sold it to his mother for discounted $2,500.
