RotoWorld.com concedes the title?

Post by King of Queens » Wed Dec 22, 2004 12:13 pm

This is from Gregg Rosenthal's column today. Greg is co-owner of the RotoWorld.com team currently competing in the Final 32.


"Going into last weekend, I had a chance to reach the pinnacle of my fantasy football life thus far. By pinnacle, I mean tons of cash. The team steered by myself and RotoWorld.com impresario Rick Cordella was in 7th place overall in the National Fantasy Football Championship (NFFC). We won a nice sum for taking our 14-team league, but are now competing with 31 other top teams in a three-week playoff for a $100,000 grand prize.

We agonized over who to sit: Drew Bennett, Brandon Stokley, Isaac Bruce, Andre Johnson, or Anquan Boldin. We examined the differences between Lawrence Tynes and Seabass. In the end, our analyzing made little difference. With the exception of Bennett, our wideouts all stunk. We sunk to 13th place and realistically don’t have a shot to win. A monster final week could put us back in the money (top four) again with a little luck.

If I have a point here, it’s that ‘coaching’ only means so much this late in the season. The choices you made on draft day still outweigh any decisions heading into this final fantasy weekend. Unless, of course, you lucked out with Billy Volek three weeks ago. Jerks."

Hey, Dyv! Hear that? You're a jerk!

Son Of A....

Don't DARE question the skill in scooping up Billy Volek! It was the checkmate move of my season!

"Expert" ? Bah ;)

Hey - I only called Volek owners jerks because I was mad I didn't have him: and jealous after watching Brees slog through the snow in Cleveland. Congrats on the strong finish - this was an awesome competition.

Getting 3.5 pts. from Volek in the final week was a fine payback ):
