The Wane McGarity Bowl Finals Recap

I know I'm super late on this posting, but I had to give Kenny's team props on finally winning his Wane McGarity Championship. How did the matchup go? Here's a quick recap


Scott's Tots (10-6)                   186.76
No Soup For You (9-6)           116.78 

This was the MOST DOMINANT PERFORMANCE in the history of the Wane McGarity Bowl. Kenny's squad set all kinds of records (most points in a Wane McGarity Bowl and most points in a single game PERIOD) and there was just nothing Leland could do as everyone sans Phillip Lindsay basically just went BONKERS and this matchup was never even close. All of Kenny's main guys showed up when it absolutely mattered, Deshaun Watson, 38.46 points, Antonio Brown 37.5 points, Zach Ertz 29 points, McCaffrey 23.80 points and even waiver wire pickup Robbie Anderson put up 24.5 points. Kenny's 2nd worst player? Julian Edelman who had 16 points..that would've been Leland's 3rd best scorer. Just unbelievable performance as a group from Kenny's team who played strong at the end of the season to the tune of a 7 game winning streak and just obliterated everyone in his path with none of his matchups even being remotely close. The third time was a charm and Kenny has now etched his name in the record books as a Champion of the Wane McGarity Bowl. For Leland, an untimely suspension to Kareem Hunt and injury to Emmanuel Sanders really put a dent his championship chances. He put up a valiant fight, but there was just no way he stood a chance in this matchup. Despite Aaron Rodgers having the game of his life and Robert Woods scoring nearly 26 points, he just didn't have enough firepower to compete with Kenny. Still, Leland's a two time champ, and it's still definitely a successful season for him. Now in hindsight, I know this guy seems like he's been a giant headache, especially recently, but we don't care about off the field stuff in Fantasy Football. This guy has been the anchor of Kenny's team since his comeback, his injury last year probably cost him a title, but this year he delivered big time. In what might end up being his swan song on Kenny's team, the Wane McGarity Bowl MVP is

Could've gone Watson here too, but I just think it's harder to put up these kind of points as a WR than a QB. He came up super huge and was a big reason Kenny was so dominate late in the season.


Other League Notes: So I won 3rd place for the 2nd straight year, easily defeating Matt in the 3rd place game. To me, making the playoffs is a successful season, so placing definitely puts it over the top. I wish I could get over that semifinals hump (0-3 last 3 times I've been there), but finishing 3rd is better than nothing I suppose. As for the consolation final, this is the 3rd straight time Dad has finished there and the 3rd time he's lost. Albert wins the consolation bowl and will get the right to chose where he wants to pick next year. Our Final Standings are as follows

Champion: Scott's Tots (Kenny)

2nd: No Soup For You (Leland)
3rd: Rigmas Forever (Me)
4th: Light's Broken Bots (Matt)
5th: Rocket Man (Eugene)
6th: Shock The Monkey (Mark)
7th: Channel 4 News Team (Albert)
8th: Underdawg (Dad)
9th: I Am Queens Blvd (Drew)
10th: Trump 2020 (Mike)
