2002 Recap
2002
was the inaugural year of the Derrick Williams Fantasy Football League (DWFFL).
Ten
teams were split into two conferences: the East and the West. The East was
a combined 9-16 vs. the West in the regular season which helped the West land
the top two teams in the league.
The
presidents trophy winners (team with best regular season) were the Polymorphic
Pacifists run by Scott. They went a stunning 11-2 and manhandled opponents
in the regular season averaging almost 10 points per game more than anyone
else. They had an average margin of victory of 19+ points per game.
That
being said, the most stunning stat of the regular season belonged to Silent But
Deadly. They went 10-3 in the regular season while out scoring their
opponents by 15 points all season. Yes, that is 1.15 points per game.
The
real battle was between the Horny Priests and Obligatory Nude Scene of the
East. Obligatory Nude Scene was a solid 6-2 in the regular season within
its division but both losses came at the hands of the Horny Priests.
Because of that they finished second in the division and were forced to win 3
for the title after getting no bye.
The
funniest team had to be that of I Try When I Want To. They allowed a
league low in points at 78.92 points per game, but they only scored 70 per game
which was second to last in the league. They finished 4-9 but won their
playoff game, giving them a lottery pick in the upcoming rookie draft.
The
Playoffs went as scripted the first week but all hell broke loose in week two as
the goliath that was the Pacifists laid an egg and lost to second seed Silent
But Deadly. Across the way in the other conference Obligatory Nude Scene
got back at the Horny Priests with squeaker of a victory, vindicating themselves
after two regular season losses.
Championship
week was entertaining as the giant that was Scott's team fell off the earth and
lost for the second time in as many weeks in the third place game. After
an 11-2 regular season record the playoffs were torture for the Pacifists as
they went 0-2. In the championship game, there was a good battle for the
title as Silent But Deadly and Obligatory Nude Scene were grappling for the
crown. With the conclusion of the afternoon games Silent But Deadly down
39 to 57 to Obligatory. Jason had Harrison and Griese to go while Derrick
had Toomer and the Philly D still to go. The smart money had Harrison and
Griese netting 18 more than Toomer and the Philly D which would have landed
Silent But Deadly a championship.
As
the afternoon games kicked off Harrison and Toomer were playing each other in
the RCA Dome in Indy. The first news however came from Denver where Griese
had thrown for 40 yards and 2 picks. Gud Frerotte was coming in.
Wait.. what? For real? Griese leaves the game at -2..? Now it
was up to Harrison to throw up 20 more than Toomer and Philly combined.
Well the wheels came off at that point for Jason. On Fox you could watch
Philly scored 3 TD's on defense and on CBS Collins was heaving up TD's to Toomer,
4 of them to be exact. When it was all done, Toomer had 42 points, a
record for a receiver in a game and Obligatory Nude Scene was victorious to the
tune of 121-61.
