The 2010 regular season is winding to a close. I was overwhelmed this year, so I didn't post, well.......... at all! Expect a super-spectacular double posting on January 9 covering awards for the No Helmets No Pads league, as well as the Back Alley Knife Fight!
Now at the risk of stealing material from the my future (January 9) post....let me take this opportunity to congratulate Emperor Palpatine a.k.a. Greenskins for a first place regular season finish in the league. He usually does not have the best luck in fantasy football, but was in it from the very beginning this year when he started 6-0?!
Every year I like to acknowledge those who finished at the top of the standings in part because playoffs in fantasy football are much more susceptible to luck than success over a 14 or 17 game season. Hey Beerman!!! put the finishing touches on another strong season with his second second place finish in a row. Those of you who wrote him off last year because he was out getting drunk and missed the draft paid dearly for it. And finally, No Homers dug, clawed and crawled his way into the playoffs this year, making it 3 years in a row now with a top 4 finish. It wasn't pretty, but he got the job done in the end.
Honorable mentions for both daddypoppypants and big country for fielding very strong teams. Both of these teams missed the playoffs by the slightest of margins. They both had top 5 scoring teams (unless I read that incorrectly) and they both had tougher schedules than anyone who finished ahead of them.*
Okay, time for cake. See you in January!
*Fortunately, my awards take this into account.
