Tebow Power!
(Note: this is my Who Lurks Fantasy Football Championship Post. Expect lots of gloating)
The Best team won. Or at least the team that was the best for most of the season, even if The Turd Ferguson's did have a freefall at the end of the regular season. Thank you injuries. And why did the Turd's win: Tebow. Because All he does is win.
Seriously though, The Turd Ferguson's were the class of WLFF until around week 10, when the Monster Fred Jackson went on IR. Couple that with RunDMC (Auction bargain @ $28, $1 more than Peyton Hillis, $14 less than Jamaal Charles, $13 less than Rashard Mendenhall?) not playing since getting hurt in week 7, and the fact that I bought Peyton Manning the day before the 2nd surgery was announced, I was actually very fortunate to win this thing. I loved Darren Sproles coming into this season, I knew he'd be the next Reggie Bush in that Saints offense. With lots of money left at the end of the auction, I overspent on AJ Green also, that paid off in spades, becoming a great value. The Dallas WRs were also very nice for me when they were healthy. Tebow ended up coming off the waiver wire once Orton was given the boot, and although the jury is still definitely out on him being a competent NFL quarterback, he's been a very productive, not spectacular, but productive fantasy QB. And all he does is win.
As for the loser, Morbo had a pretty solid year. One of the highest scorers all year, he fought through some terrible luck in the early season, being on the losing side of some of the highest scoring matchups, he fought his way into playoff position and made it to the championship game. His downfall was Tony Romo, he should've heeded the advice of my buddy Damon, who won my keeper league: "Romo was a last second scratch because I didn’t want to have Tony Romo be responsible for winning anything." Alas, CM was stuck with no other options on his team, and well, we all see where that got him. First Loser. Congrats. Also, Good work Brody in taking third, it really feels like we played about 7 times this year.
Until next season friends, signing off....
