Northbrook, IL and Morton Grove, IL – November 13, 2006 – Interactive Sports Marketing (ISM) announced today that they will leverage fantasy sports contests using their ALL FREE Fantasy Sports brand name as a creative new way to collect market research on hard core sports fans and the 18-34 year-old male consumer.  ISM’s contests will be powered by STATS LLC, the world’s leading sports information provider.  ISM is currently offering over $30,000 in cash prizes along with other rewards to entice fantasy players to play its free fantasy football contest at www.allfreefantasysports.com.

”Fantasy sports was the perfect vehicle for us to build our community of sports fans and we are truly excited to be working with a market leader like STATS,” said Adam J.
