Team resource

Description

The Team APIs allow you to retrieve information about a team within our fantasy games. The team is the basic unit for keeping track of a roster of players, and can be managed by either one or two managers (the second manager being called a co-manager). With the Team APIs, you can obtain team-related information, like the team name, managers, logos, stats and points, and rosters for particular weeks. Teams only exist in the context of a particular League, although you can request a Team Resource as the base of your URI by using the global team_key. A particular user can only retrieve data about a team if that team is part of a private league of which the user is a member, or if it's in a public league.
