    Default Re: That Darn Apostrophe

    Just to elaborate:

    The apostrophe is not needed because the 'Fantasy' and 'Sports' act as adjectives modifying 'Game'

    If the 'Game' belonged to the 'Fantasy Sports' then it would go:

    Fantasy Sport's Game (singular)
    Fantasy Sports' Game (plural)
