Emmanuel Classic - Championship Recap

Congratulations to Punch in the Face, coached by Steve Lee, who clinched the not just the inaugural Charlie Cup but a perfect season, after topping Rich Kwon's Beginner's Luck squad 136.98 to 110.02. As we have in the other weeks, let's take it down to the field with the presentation of the Charlie Cup to the winning coach.

PUNCH IN THE FACE COACH STEVE LEE (sideline interview by Andrea Kremer)

Kremer: Congratulations on winning the inaugural Charlie Cup, Coach Lee. Any thoughts as you look back on the season?

Lee: I don't think we'll ever see a 16-0 season again in any fantasy football league... ever! It just takes such a unique combination of pure luck and obsessive attention. Notice I did not say "skill" -- I'm very aware of how much luck and timing of match-ups had to do with winning this championship. Had we played Beginner's Luck, Hamsters, Milburn Mustangs, Cooler than Baptists in different weeks than we actually did, we likely wouldn't have gone undefeated and possibly wouldn't have won the championship. But that being said, if I'm invited to the league next year, you can write this down - we're going to win again. It's dynasty time.
