2015 Football Champs: Punching Donkeys

In a rematch of the 2009 championship, C’s Punching Donkeys once again triumphed over Beaver Damn! by a final score of 97-90. In doing so, the Donkeys not only became the first back-to-back football champs in Idle Time fantasy sports history, but, with their third overall title in the sport, they join the ranks of the Idle Time elite.

Only the Donkeys (football), Pine Tar Heroin (baseball), and The Fundamentalators (basketball) have three trophies in a single sport.

Although it was a balanced effort up and down the lineup, Punching Donkeys put the pressure on early with a 30-point performance from Kirk Cousins on Saturday night. Cousins, who C modestly called “a midseason bye week replacement,” is yet another example of the kind of waiver wire magic and free agency resurrections that have become the hallmark of the Punching Donkey dynasty.

From the Commissioner:

Pretty dominating season CWang. Can i call you Chuck? Charlie is my go-to restaurant name since Matt is too generic to ensure that I actually get my pastrami on rye and not some BLT with avocado. Anyway, good name, good team.

Super Bowl champ
First repeat champ
First 3-time champ
Most total points this season
Not the most wins though – tough break Bombers. Those late season points are so tough to predict and manage with early success. But you do get to keep a guy named Fozzy for next year.

and this year’s donkey-who-was-punched?
Poor little Beavers – huge scoring playoffs, but just short of a 2nd championship.

Final award goes to Kraepernick for the first annual “I’m-the-only-guy-who-didn’t-win-with-Cam” achievement. Not sure how you did it, but I hope it had something to do with the coming 7torm. How is that even his hashtag? Everyone knows 7 = T. S7ormscoming was totally there for the plucking. Jesus.

Speaking of awards, an inaugural trophy is coming your way Chuckster once everyone pays their low, low dues of 10 bucks.

The remaining dough from whatever award is purcahsed should probably go to some sort of participation gift. I’ll think on this over the offseason and have something out by next preseason.

As a final memory of the 2015 season, I re-publish a limerick about Richard Sherman from a week 7 lost bet which followed the exact moment when I completely gave up and pursued other activities on Sundays:

There once was a man from Compton
Who’s sac so big, bitches comped ‘im
After teabagging Kaep
He had time for a nap
Cuz that narrow eyed motherfucker can’t see an open receiver in walk-throughs…or will just zip a bullet at his shoes…Jesus…Ima start calling coach Tomsula interim

til next year
