Vin Vento

Vin graduated from college with a Business degree he doesn’t really use in his day-to-day job, so he figured, “Why not write in my downtime? Not like I have a degree in that either!”

Vin has been playing fantasy football for over half of his life. One of the first leagues he ever played in was a free league with strangers on CBS in 2006. He drafted LaDainian Tomlinson during his 28 TD season and from that moment on, he was hooked. Vin is a numbers “nerd” when it comes to fantasy football, compiling all types of stats from his longest-running league in a giant Excel workbook. He is an avid Yankees and Jets fan (weird combo, even weirder than his favorite food combo of lamb and tuna fish).

Mason Dwinnell, PT, DPT

Mason Dwinnell received his Bachelor of Arts in Exercise and Sport Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2019 and his Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Mercer University in 2022. He is also currently a resident in Mercer University’s Orthopedic Residency program. 

Mason is an avid fan of the Giants, the Braves, and the 49ers. He enjoys obsessing over managing his fantasy teams when his real teams break his heart. He has been helping his friends understand injury timelines and rehabilitation expectations for years, and is excited to share his knowledge with the readers of this site.
