Well, it's time for the big game. I'm a 12 point underdog and the projections look like they're in line. But I feel pretty good about my chances anyway.

Yeah, sorry I haven't done a Wildly Inaccurate Guess for the Championship Game yet. It really snuck up on me for some reason, thankfully neither of you two had anyone in the Thursday game.
Leatherbacks (Nick Soapdish) vs. Reavers! (Insurrection)
-Reavers! favored by ~11.
It's not often a 110 point projection is an underdog, but here we are. Sorry Nick, I just don't see an under-projected player on your roster. Maybe Mike Wallace because the Rams CBs are pretty much pulled off the street at this point, but Charlie Batch starting instead of Roethlisberger may mitigate that (I'm not sure, I 've seen a few think that's an upgrade for fantasy purposes). Perhaps if Michael Bush is ruled out at the last minute? Insurrection's lineup is just so strong.
Either way we'll have another first-time League winner. While another worst-to-first would be a great story, the Leatherbacks are looking at a uphilll climb.
Good luck to both teams!

Congratulations Nick on becoming the 3rd League Champion(barring some crazy 10+ point stat corrections). Another fun season is over and I thank everyone for participating and hope we can do it all again next season.

Leatherbacks 128 Reavers! 118.
If I only started Denarius Moore, I hate the Raiders.
Good game Soapdish.
Unless someone counts that 92 yard return run by Darren Sproles this would be closer. Mik3

You still would have lost. The difference between Green and Moore is less than your margin of defeat by about 0.35 point. It would have been real close, though.

Woo-hoo! It's a Christmas miracle! 
I guess it's not a stunner that I won, but it takes a bit of the sting off from my last place finish last year. And with CJ Spiller and Reggie Bush as my running backs, no less.

Reggie Bush definitely outperformed what I thought he would do. Who's Daniel Thomas again?
Congrats Nick, and congrats to Insurrection as well! On a normal weekend that performance would be enough to get you the win....

I'm in.
This year, I'm making sure the damn software works. No more Shonn Greene in the third round for me. And hopefully no more dumb trades (passing on Newton and dumping Foster in the same deal).

If I'm still allowed count me in too.
Hopefully I won't need to go to the waiver wire like I did last time. (Though Michael Bush, if you're available again....)

Of course, everyone from last season is invited, but just to clarify something, yahoo sent the invites to whichever email you have signed up on yahoo with so if anyone can't find the email address they were using, let me know and I will send you an invite to another email address.

God, back in.
Had the worst run of quarterbacks possible last year. Went through about 7 quarterbacks last year because of injury.
