Yay, me!

My thoroughly mediocre team managed to beat Moonie's team for top honors in the Yahoo Fantasy League this year.

Since I finished the regular season 7-7, and had the 7th seed for the playoffs, all this shows is that my regular players were so bad that they were still piling up stats against the other team's second and third strings in weeks 16 and 17.

I think I may have discovered the secret to winning fantasy H2H leagues!

Congratulations! So for next year we should target players on poor teams who will play good teams in the final weeks. It's more about the schedule than we knew!

Yes, Mr. K!

The defending champion Belles of the Ball finished fourth. No reflection on owner Ms. Kay but rather on the bonehead general manager (who shall remain nameless :) )

It's what I get for not being able to make the draft and relying on Yahoo automatic drafting.

Hey Mr K

Yes, Congratulations to you. Your bunch of second-stringers beat my bunch of more mediocre second-stringers.

I had some tough decisions to make,,, do I start Torry Holt or Reggie Brown? Ladanian Tomlinson or TJ Duckett?

Anyway, the Hoosier Daddies have earned a laurel and hardy handshake. The Moonies tip their hat to you!

Congratulations on your fantasy success. In both of the leagues I play in, the #1 seed and the #2 seed got beat in the first round of our playoffs. This was mostly due to the players (mostly N.E. guys and Dallas guys) they had ridden all year to get those #1 and #2 seeds having their worst week of the year on the first week of our playoffs.
The good side of that is that their defeats allowed The Baboo to win the league at our bar and collect over $400.

Not to worry, Miss Melly. We did pretty darn well considering we were the lowest seed going into the playoffs and actually won against the number 1 seed.

The schedule does make a difference. I thought we had a respectable year. I don't know why, but I can never make it when they have the draft. I think it might be on my music night. So we did pretty well for a "default" team.
