2018 UMassBallers Season Revue: Doged Determination

This is truly a special time of year. A season of hope. A season of good cheer. A season of miracles. And the greatest miracle of all? Doge Flutie has finally won the UMassBallers!!!

The league has existed for 11 seasons, 10 of which I have participated in. It wasn't til my 9th season that I even placed in the top 3, and in #10 I finally reached the summit! You have witnessed a fantasy football fanatic finally reach peak performance luck!

Houston, we have touchdown.

This year was unique for a variety of reasons: only 8 teams in the league, but also more roster spots (including 2 QBs), and it was winner-takes-all. Does this mean, after a decade of contributing to other GM's checking accounts that I finally managed to break even? Let's do the math:

• 2009-2013: $20 per season ($100 total)
• 2014-2018: $100 per season ($500 total)
• 2018 winnings: $800
• Net result: +$200

It's like Frank Drebin said in The Naked Gun: "Well, well, it looks like the cows have come home to roost." All that futility managed to amount to something!

There were many other interesting events and storylines from the fantasy season though, so let's revel in all of the moments that made the 2018 UMassBallers season weird special.
