You are reading the blog of the newly annointed champion of the Jello Brains fantasy football league. Thanks to a monster game from Amani Toomer, my squad (the Bobby Heberts) eeked out a win over Quincy Augmon in the championship game, 136-132.
Not to toot my own horn, but I had the first pick in this year’s player draft. That’s normally a big plus — but I picked Marshall Faulk, who ended up laying eggs most weeks and spent the last month sitting on my bench. Despite this major setback, the Heberts rallied for me (or, perhaps, for their namesake).
It is traditional fantasy football etiquette to offer gifts to the champion.
