This One is for a Substantial Portion of the Marbles

I know I'm coming to this a bit late, but after all it is the holidays.  And with no Thursday game this week, we still have a full slate of games ahead of us.

So ---

After our earlier discussion about past champions, and the fact that we've had a different champion each of the last 7 years, I'm really rooting for Jason to pull off the worst-to-first turnaround this year (except that Jason DIDN'T finish in last place last year --- that was TWO years ago, and yet somehow, his team still has the Craptastics moniker.  Which, I have to say, diminishes my enthusiasm for them a skoche).  I mean, it's a bummer that Kevin and Taylor both got bounced from the first round of the playoffs, but at least Jason still has a shot at winning his first TTFFL title of the modern era!

I haven't looked at the league site recently, but I seem to recall that the system was projecting the title game to be a real nail-biter, with both teams scoring in the mid-70s.  And I know that Jason is starting both Derrick Henry AND Le'Veon Bell!  With CEH out for the Chiefs, that's a 1-2 RB combo that really packs a punch!  And let's face it --- in spite of the popularity of RPOs and the passing game these days, a solid RB can still carry a team to a fantasy title.

And Jason's got TWO of them!  So let's all root for the Craptastics, if for no reason other than if he wins the title, he might think about changing his team name!
