Triple Crown of Fantasyland

The last time I posted about my fantasy teams was in early July, and I sat at the top of all 3 of my fantasy leagues. Well now after a full seasons worth of work I can say I achieved the Fantasy Triple Crown. Three for three.

Dell's Herp Army
This was by far the worst of my 3 teams. In the finals I lost 4 of the 5 hitting categories with my lone saving grace being the cheap Stolen Base Category. So what won me the league? Cole Hamels, Yovani Gallardo and my diesel closing squad of K-Rod, Corpas, and Nathan. I won every single pitching category to take the crown.

Dreamboat's Sperm
This was by far my best team. I mauled the opposition in the finals. Utley, Braun, Vlad, Prince, Atkins, Holliday Carlos Guillen, Tejada, Bedard, Sabathia, Lilly, Corpas, Yovani the list goes on. I built a massive lead in the regular season and wrapped up the finals with ease 15-3.

Matt
Boring name, but my father is in the league and well I didn't pick my name anyway, I just took over for an existing team in 06 and they plugged me in as Matt. I took over the lead in this roto league in the early months and held onto the lead with relative ease in the last week after a little scare in early September. J Roll and CC might take home dual awards for me this year.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
