Congratulations TIMMY!!! You are the 2009 Scared Sundays Champion!! And what a way to do it too, claiming the high score of the week in the process… that is big time football!! And congratulations to Jamie also for coming into the playoffs as the 6th seed, yet battling all the way to a second-place finish.
Now that that’s out of the way, I believe an explanation is in order… This column has endued a big decline in the number of posts recently, and for that I must apologize. Basically staffing hours for Sacred Sundays Blog, Inc have been cut way back due to overtime at Banfield Inc, where I do the bulk of my writing. I’ve been working two jobs there for several weeks, which has eaten up all my free time at work plus really made me not feel like getting on the computer at night…
But this week’s column was going to be colossal since it was for the Championship Game! Rachel is out of town, so I was going to get home from work as early as possible and have a lot of time to write a good long column. But then Snowmageddon hit Portland. Let me just tell you…Portland city residents go insane when it starts snowing, and Portland is ill-equipped to handle white, fluffy precipitation that piles up on the ground. It took me 4 ½ hours to get home from work… a trip that normally takes me 35 minutes. Suffice it to say, that really cut into my writing time tonight… lol! So all I have for this week are a couple quick items, and the final money tally:
FINAL STANDINGS
- Lords of Lumberg
- Midnight Maulers
- SOFA KING GOOD
- Coors Light Drunk Guys
- sprouts
- Tailgate Approved
- Frito Pie
- American BadAss
- Scottish Rebels
- Joe’s Pats
(Remember that the draft order will be that order in reverse.)
FINAL MONEY WINNERS
- Timmy - $175 = Championship, plus Three Weekly High Scores (6, 12, 16)
- Russ - $100 = Four Weekly High Scores (3, 8, 11, 15)
- James - $80 = 3rd Place, plus two Weekly High Scores (5, 13)
- Jamie - $75 = Runner-up, plus one Weekly High Score (2)
- Jens - $50 = Two Weekly High Scores (9, 10)
- Shawn - $25 = One Weekly High Score (1)
- Joe - $25 = One Weekly High Score (4)
- Jerry - $25 = One Weekly High Score (7)
- Rachel - $25 = One Weekly High Score (14)
KEEPERS
Once again this year, keepers will have to be declared by one week after the NFL draft. But this year each team will have the option to keep up to 2 keepers, but can elect to keep only one or none. Also this year, the draft pick forfeited for a keeper in next year’s draft will be the round the player was selected this year. (Keepers from this year count as a first or second round pick, and any free agent pickups count as a 15th round pick.)
So that concludes another fantasy season… I can’t believe it is over so quickly… I will send all of the money winners an email to confirm mailing addresses. Also, I’ll send out email updates when we get closer to the keeper declaration date.
Until then, Happy New Year!!
