Ramblings Playoff Fever!

With the conclusion of the Super Bowl it is time now to check in on Ramblings Playoff Fever!

I hate to do so but I must congratulate myself for winning the first ever Ramblings Playoff Fever fantasy football pool. But I hope to grow on my success in next year's playoff! While I finished as champion of my own league I actually fared pretty well nationally.

According to ESPN's service I finished with 361 points, which was better than 96.1% of all players in all of the fantasy football leagues they operated. My final ranking, although it seems lowly without realizing how many people played, was 7160.

I also participated in a similar style league on The Sporting News. I finished in second place in my league as I had zero trades left to make before the NFC and AFC championship games. Luckily for me I had just about ALL Patriots and Giants players for my roster spots.

Ramblings Playoff Fever!

Well folks the final weekend of the NFL regular season is upon us and it is time to start thinking about the playoffs. I extend an invitation to YOU to join my playoff league, hosted by ESPN's Gridiron Challenge.

I have set up a group that is private, but I will provide the sign up necessities right here if you are interested in joining. I am extending an open invitation to everybody I know and everybody who happens to read this blog. There is no prize except for bragging rights and there is no fee to sign up (you just need to set up a registration with ESPN...again, free).

Get in the action now:

I'll be sure to post a recap after each week as well so you can see how glorious you or a friend are doing. Again, it's really easy to set up. It only took me two minutes to set up my team, and everyone can use the same players (that means everyone can use Tom Brady in the division round for their team). Good luck!
