The Final Showdown of 2021!



And then there were two… We are all set for the final showdown for the 2021 Sacred Sundays Champion – Joe’s Pats versus the Coors Light Drunk Guys!  Shawn had a Tuesday night comeback victory (don’t hear that very often) over Young Guns and Joe thumped my helpless Scottish Rebels.  The Coors Light Drunk Guys have played in the Championship game twice before, having won a championship most recently in 2011.  Joe’s Pats has been in the Championship game four times, having won championships in 2015, 2017 and 2018.  Congratulations and good luck to both teams!

The other big congratulations this week go to Attack of Mahomes, who racked up a mighty fine 118 points to snag a second Weekly High Score Prize for the season!  Over half of Timmy's points this week came from just two players, Travis Kelce (34 points) and Patrick Mahomes (32 points), who absolutely killed this week!  Timmy even had a goose egg from a wide receiver (Jamarr Chase), yet still had enough to be tops this week.  Well done sir!!

Just a quick update as we head into the final week of the season and Christmas...


EVERYONE NEEDS MONEY, THAT’S WHY THEY CALL IT MONEY
Recap on the prizes for this season… Weekly High Score Prizes are $50/week, and here is the current tally:

For the playoffs, here are the prizes this season:
  • 1st = $325
  • 2nd = $150
  • 3rd = $100
  • 4th = $75
  • 5th = $50
In the Championship game, in the event of a tie the following tie-breakers will be used.
1) Team with the highest scoring quarterback wins;
2) Team with the highest scoring runningback wins;
3) Team with the highest scoring wide receiver wins;
4) If still tied at that point, co-Champions will be declared and prize money split evenly.

DRAFT & KEEPERS
Same keeper rules will apply for next season… each team can designate up to 2 players from this season’s final roster as keepers for next season.  The players will count as a draft pick from the round they were drafted this season.  Keepers being re-kept will count as a 1st round pick.  Undrafted players will count as a 15th round pick.  I’ll send out the final rosters and draft values a week or so after the season concludes.
Draft 2022 will be on Labor Day Weekend… plans forthcoming…

BEST BENCH(es)
Time to get caught up on Best Benches… three to award this week.  Weeks 13 and 14 went to the two teams who had the longest streaks without a Best Bench.  In Week 13 it was my Scottish Rebels with a 23-point improvement possibility taking home the honor.  It was the first Best Bench I’ve won since Week 14 2020.  In Week 14 the Best Bench went to Vandelay Industries with a 30-point improvement possibility.  For Rob, that was his first Best Bench since Week 5 2019, which was the longest active streak.  The current longest streak now belongs to sprouts, who has not had a Best Bench since Week 16 last season.

For last week (Week 15), it was a familiar face taking home the honors, as the Coors Light Drunk Guys won their 4th Best Bench of the season!  Shawn needed just a two player swap to improve by 21 points this week… H. Henry for T. Higbee +19 and T. Pollard for J. Connor +2.  The Drunks last had a Best Bench in back-to-back weeks, 9 & 10 of this season.

Only one more week to go!  Get any final waiver claims in!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all you guys!!
