  • DB730

    Dan Back (fantasy alias DB730) is one of the original hosts of GrindersLive and has found tremendous success both as a player and broadcaster in DFS. He started the first Daily Fantasy Sports exclusive podcast on RotoGrinders in 2011 and has steadily been a top 75 ranked Grinder over the years.

  • headChopper

    Since beginning his Daily Fantasy voyage in 2008, headChopper has been crushing the competition. His accomplishments in DFS include: 2013 DFBBC Champion, a 3x FFFC Finalist, 2x DFFC Finalist, PFBC Finalist, PFFC Finalist, & a DSBBC Finalist. With all that said, College Football might be his best sport. He’s been near the top of rankings since 2009, during the infancy stages of Daily Fantasy. He’s been ranked as high as #3 Overall, and is respected as one of the best GPP Grinders in the community. He finished runner-up for the 2012 TPOY, and finished 10th in the 2013 TPOY.

  • JMToWin

    JM “JMToWin” Tohline is a novelist in his spare time (no, really). The rest of the time, he studies and plays DFS. He began playing DFS at the beginning of the 2014 MLB season; by the end of that year, he had won three Qualifiers into million-dollar tourneys and had won two separate trips to the Bahamas. His tendency to type a lot of words leads to a corresponding tendency to divulge all his DFS thoughts, strategies, and secrets…which is exactly what he does in his RotoGrinders articles and RotoAcademy courses. You can find JM on Twitter at JMToWin.

  • Dean78904

    Dean Shavelson (fantasy alias “Dean78904”) entered the world of DFS around the 2012 MLB All-Star game with an initial deposit of around $140. Thanks to a Cody Ross dong (vs. a LHP of course), Dean took down his first GPP and he never looked back. Dean is indefinitely committed (some may say obsessed) to tracking down Doc Brown, Biff Tannen, and a very specific almanac. Despite his lack of success in locating the infamous “Grays Sports Almanac”, Dean is consistently ranked as a Top 25 Overall Grinder. Additionally, Dean is putting his UCF Radio-TV degree to good use as an on-air GrindersLive co-host and contributor of written RG content.

  • CheeseIsGood

    Dave Potts (CheeseIsGood) is a full-time fantasy baseball player and analyst.
