And the winnah is...
Sampa Baller (Denny, reg season 102-86-1, 5th place)
2nd Place: Sexual Favors (JazzFan 98-84-7, 6th)
3rd place: The Jammers (Lija, Lije 114-72-3, 1st place all year!)
4th place: Aliveandkickin (Mark V 111-75-3, 2nd Place)
5th place: JordanPushedOff (TomJ 106-79-4, 3rd place)
6th Place: ptazz66 (ptazz 101-85-3, 4th place)
(I, despite having 100 wins, was knocked out of the playoffs by the eventual champion, Sampa)
Jammers (my son) was betrayed by injuries, and his remaining players having their worst week of the season in Semifinal Week. And Sexual Favors, who made a terrific second-half run, fell victim to Sampas' GREAT championship week-700+pts, 300+rebs and 49% FG shooting. Lots of coulda, shoulda, woulda all around.
But a good, competitive year. Kind of hard to see how Sampa accomplished this, seein' as how he drafted Channing Frye, Hedo Turkoglu, Andrew Bogut and Chauncey Billups. I mean, WTF? That's a recipe for disaster. But somehow he ended up with Nikola Vucevic and Joe Johnson (in addition to his other excellent picks) and it all worked out for him.
There was some talk of turning this into a small-time money league, so anyone interested in such a thing, we'll discuss here before next season, aight? I would favor a 1/2 Payout for Champion, 1/4 for 2nd place and 1/4 for top regular season winner. Or not. Whatever.
See ya next year!!!
