I gave him shit all year for getting lucky and winning so many games with scores under 100 points. But when it mattered, Death Valley Driver put up big weeks, and rolled to his first title. DeAndre Hopkins was huge for him twice, as was Derrick freaking Henry, and neither opponent was able to put up much of a fight. Fantasy football is weird sometimes. Find the right guys at the right time, and you can win. He's the fifth different champion in the league's five-year history.
Here are the final standings according to ESPN, final record in parentheses:
- Death Valley Driver (11-5)
- The Jeff Fisher Effect (8-8)
- Hardcore Sacks (11-4-1)
- Dancin' Dennis Nedry (9-6-1)
- Scrote Squad (7-9)
- Panic Time Squad (7-8-1)
- Iron Ryan (7-8-1)
- Released Dix On Boobies (5-11)
- Pedro Pickles (7-9)
- Team Provost (5-11)
Team Provost becomes the first owner to win both a Championship AND be The Worst.
Couple Other Random Tidbits
Scrote Squad is the winner of the extra 5 bucks in scratch tickets for the 2019 Draft.
Pedro Pickles had 81 points scored against him in both weeks of the regular season; his scores in those weeks were separated by 107 points (52.5 in Week 15, 159.5 in Week 16).
End of Season: The Gathering
There will be more fun, frivolity and random stats at our End of Season: The Gathering coming up on January 6. Let's meet at the RumbleSeat again, as it appears to be the unofficial STPS Bar, unless anyone has any other ideas. (Perhaps the Birthday Boy could suggest a location?) Think about any possible rule changes you'd like to propose. I don't think there's much we can do to make the league better, but let me know what you think.
Thanks for a great season. I'm happy to have such engaged league mates, and am lucky to have a group of guys I enjoy participating in this silly hobby with!
See you on the 6th!
