Regular Season Recap

So we’re finally into the land of Playoffs here at the Davison Fantasy Football League. But before we discuss the nail-biting and thrilling playoffs, let’s recap the regular season.

Here are our final standings:

regular season final standings

Somehow Maclin on Your Girl finished the season in first place…I have no words. I can’t even explain this.

I finished in second place…and my last game of the regular season was ANOTHER TIE. Yup the Davison Fantasy Football League had 3 ties this season. I was involved in 2 of them, as was Here’s My# So Call Me Brady. Once again I have no words, I can’t explain how this happened to me twice. The Fantasy Football Gods continue to keep me in awe. The tie in fantasy football has become my double rainbow. I just start weeping uncontrollably.

Smack Talk Fuzzy is still bitter, angry and can be found muttering about the unfairness of byes under his breath.

Only four teams finished over .500 for the season…and for those that did it was barely over .500.

Only one trade was made the whole season.

Smack Talk Fuzzy nearly doubled the amount of any other team with acquisitions made. The average number of acquisitions made by a team in the league was 18, Smack Talk Fuzzy had 45.

Also apparently Smack Talk Fuzzy had a love-hate relationship with Kenny Britt. The Fuzz acquired and dropped Britt three times.

Kenny Britt getting the news that he’s been dropped from Smack Talk Fuzzy…again.

Stay tuned for playoff coverage my friends…

Oops…he did it again

And now I’m number one in the league!!!

My boyfriend knows what it’s like to be number 1. Even if he only scored me 4 points this week.

Commissioner Maclin on Your Girl played 3 players that were on a bye AGAIN…impressive. Like honestly I’m just impressed by the whole situation. After I called him out the first time he seemed to be getting his act together (much to the dismay of Smack Talk Fuzzy who blamed me for him losing to Maclin). He had been sitting pretty in first place of the league going into week 11. As Thursday rolled around and he had a couple bye players I assumed oh he’s just going to wait until Saturday or Sunday morning to switch them. But no, the switches never came.

Maybe the pressure of being number one in this league was just too much to handle? The stakes and fame being so much. Maybe he really thought that Adrian Peterson on a bye was his best option for running back. Maybe he was off saving orphaned puppies and finding a cure for cancer. Honestly, I don’t know, but I know what I’m adding to my list of things I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving…

I can mock him all I want, but the sad fact of the matter is for a while I was worried I was going to lose to someone who played three players on a bye. It was a real possibility for a while guys…a real possibility.

Here’s what it takes to become number one in the league:

  • Have your goldenboy quarterback who has been one of the top fantasy quarterbacks all year score only 2 points.
  • Have your kicker be your second highest scoring player for the week.
  • You only need two players to score double digits, as long as one of them is a kicker remember
  • But most importantly have your opponent play 3 players guaranteed to score nothing.

The best part of being number 1? It’s thanksgiving week, I get to go to thanksgiving dinner as top dog. And I’m on a bye this week so I just get to sit back and watch and bask in my awesomeness…until next week when I’m in like 5th place.

This song goes out to you Maclin:

 

Oh and in case anyone wants to see the impressive box score from this epic battle of ineptitude:

I swear to god if smack talk fuzzy tries to trade me RG3 one more time…

The problem with living with one of the other league members, especially one whose favorite thing to do in fantasy football is trade, is that every day I get hounded to make a trade. Literally EVERY DAY for the past week has been, “I want to trade you RG3.”

I DON’T WANT RG3!

Matt Ryan is my guy. I’m also quite happy with Big Ben as my back up. I don’t need RG3.

When I tell him this he then goes on a tirade of why Matt Ryan and Ben Roethlisberger are going to do my team in. He loves to tell me that Matty Ice is going to melt. He thinks it’s hilarious. He literally makes himself laugh, while I just stare at him in annoyance.

The problem for the Fuzz is trades seem to be non-existent in our league. So far there’s been one trade, between Smack Talk Fuzzy and myself. Not a single other trade has been made. This pretty much is the worst case scenario for the Fuzz. If it were up to him he’d make a trade every single day just because he can. Right now he’s reduced to picking up free agents and then dropping them a few hours later, and that is not an exaggeration. In fact when I traded him Alshon Jeffrey, in less than 24 hours he dropped him.

Smack Talk Fuzzy has been playing fantasy sports since the dawn of fantasy sports. In fact I’m pretty sure he was a member of some of the first fantasy leagues ever. While fantasy baseball is his sport of choice (this year he was in 6 different fantasy baseball leagues) he would probably be in a fantasy bowling league if someone asked him to.

Babe Ruth was a member of one of Smack Talk Fuzzy’s earliest fantasy baseball teams
