Fellas,
A seventh year is in the books - another great year. Rut, Canadians are celebrating all around the world today and playing chuck chuck. You haven't placed top three since 2009, but no one can take a 'ship away from you... or your NFC South-like 5-7 regular season record.
In all seriousness though, congrats Rut Ro. You've cemented your spot in immortality as a Competitive Balance champ.
To the second place finisher bones- one bad week 15 screwed you. Clearly had the most dominant team this year.
Finally, some Bond 007 GoldenEye awards in our seven year history:
-Marksmanship Award (most championships): Heane (2)
-Most Deadly (top 3 finishes): tie between yours truly, Scotty, and Bones (4)
-Most Cowardly (0 playoff appearances): tie between Roland and Bryce
-Most Frantic (last place finishes): Crane (2)
A couple things I wanted to bring up:
1) We had zero trades this year. Not a good sign of the health of the league.
2) We should hammer out any changes to the league NOW, while it's fresh, instead of being lazy and trying to do it before the season, which we all know won't happen.
One Idea I would like to suggest having a boobie prize for the last place finisher. We can get creative with the punishment, (e.g. loser has to write into the '07 class news that he got a sex change) or we can make it monetary (e.g. loser has to pay the winner of the consolation bracket the $50). I think first we vote on whether or not there is a boobie prize. If it passes, then we vote on what the boobie prize is. I feel pretty strongly about this - it keeps EVERYONE involved throughout all 16 games and adds some good clean fun to the league. We could have a lot of fun with it if we go the creative punishment.
Scotty
