Veteran owner Heather was already over 400 points going into Monday night, so no surprise the Saints D only padded her lead. In the end, Heather scored a season-best 425 thanks to a lineup led by Mahomes, G. Smith, McCaffery, J. Cook, B. Robinson, Metcalf, Evans, Nacua, Tucker and the Saints D.

CarlP survived watching his Steelers win a wild one on Monday night to claim second place with a 378, thanks to a roster featuring Mahomes, Goff, McCaffery, Mostert, K. Allen, Evans, Tucker and the Cowboys D.

It was a strong showing for Weber State Wildcats in fantasy football, as third place went to yet another WSU colleague, Ravi (372).

This is Heather‘s first weekly win since Week 17 of 2020, and CarlP’s first pay day since Week 7 of last season. Congrats to Heather and CarlP on their strong Week 2 showings.

The Rookie Report:

In week 2, Austin (353) earned bragging rights among the new owners, edging Zach (352) by just one point. In fact, three of our four rookie owners finished in the top 11. Congrats Austin on a strong Week 2.

Eric‘s team was led by Hurts, Carr, McCaffery, T. Hill, Hockenson, Folk and the Commanders D.

Taking second to open the season is sophomore owner Kristie, who posted a 310, thanks to a lineup featuring Hurts, Garopollo, McCaffery, Jefferson, K. Allen, Elliott and the 49ers D.

This is Eric‘s first weekly win since opening day of the 2021 season, and Kristie‘s first pay day ever. Congratulations to Eric and Kristie on a solid opening week.

The preseason is over. The teams have cut down to their 53-man rosters, and we are days away from the kickoff of the 2023 NFL season.

The Detroit Lions open at Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday, Sept. 7. That’s also the start of a new fantasy football season.

You can check out the play list for Weeks 1-4 and submit your lineup for Week 1.

Entry fee is $35 for an opening lineup and the first 50 trades of the season.

Major thanks to the 30 owners who have already sent payment for the 2023 campaign.

So far, I’ve heard from 35 owners who have expressed an interest in playing.

This includes defending champion TroyA, as well as at least four rookie owners for this season.

I’m still waiting to hear back from a handful of past owners. We still have time to invite additional friends and family who might interested in playing in the league. The more, the merrier.

I’ll send an email to everyone as well, with how to send payment.

Good luck to all.

John K.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my email so quickly. I’ve heard from at least 20 owners who want to play again in 2023, so we are go for the 30th season of this league.

In a week or two, I’ll update the site with more information, and the first playlist of the season will be posted by Monday, Sept. 4.

If you know of others who might be interested in playing this season, please send me an email, or have them send me one. I’ll be happy to follow up with more details.

Can’t wait for the regular season to kick off in a little less than a month.

John K.

Hi All:

I plan to post and send out a more formal email on Aug. 10, to see if anyone is interested in playing this league again in 2023.

In the meantime, I’m conducting a simple test, to see if anyone checks this site.

If you see this post, send me an email to johnkffb@gmail.com and use the words “I’m interested” in the subject line.

The first five owners who send me an email between now and Aug. 10 with that subject line will receive 5 free additional trades for the 2023 season.

John K.

They say all good things must come to an end, and that includes the 2022 fantasy football season.

In the end, TroyA does what TroyA has done more than any other owner. Win when it counts most.

Troy‘s final lineup of the year scored a 316, thanks to a team led by Mahomes, Stidham, Henry, Z. Moss, Akers, Chase, D. Smith, Crosby and the 49ers D.

Taking second was Brenda, who posted a 308, with a lineup featuring Allen, Stidham, Henry, Harris, Akers, Diggs, Lockett, Pickens, and Tucker.

This is TroyA’s second weekly win of the year, and Brenda‘s third payday of 2022. Congrats to TroyA and Brenda on their strong showings in Week 18.

The Rookie Report:
In the finale, Luc once again stayed pat and still earned the bragging rights (250) for one last time this season.

Fellow rookie owner Brett finished 14th overall with 4741 total points. Great showing this season Brett.

Congratulations to TroyA, who wins the league title for the ninth time in 29 seasons. With the exception of TroyA and Eric flip-flopping positions, the Top 7 spots remained unchanged as most of us limped to the finish line in Week 18.

Congratulations to all those owners who finished in the money.

NOTE: On Jan. 5, 2023, the NFL announced that the postponed Buffalo Bills/Cincinnati Bengals game from Week 17 was cancelled. On Friday, Jan. 6, the NFL announced that all stats from this game would be vacated.

The Week 17 results, standings, tally and team scores have all been updated to reflect this scoring change. After much reflection and discussion, I have decided that all scores from Week 17 will count toward the season overall standings. I’ll elaborate on this decision in an email to the league.

In the meantime, here’s a reminder for all of us. Fantasy football is an entertaining distraction for 18 weeks each fall. A momentary chance to gloat, boast, celebrate or curse ourselves for one or two bone-headed picks each week. Nothing more, nothing less.


This week, the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals medical staffs, and the EMTs, first responders and medical personnel at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center performed a feat far greater than anything we have ever seen on the football field.

Thanks to all of them we have witnessed a modern-day miracle.

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, 24, is alive, conscious, speaking and appears to be on the road to making a successful recovery. Thank Heavens.
That victory supersedes anything else that happened on or off the field this season.

Now back to our regular programming.

Week 17 Recap:
Only one owner topped 400 points in Week 17. RandyH kicked off the New Year on a high note, scoring a 419, thanks to a lineup led by Mahomes, Brady, Ekeler, Etienne, McKinnon, James and Prater.

Kim continued his late-season surge, posting a 366 to take second place, thanks to a lineup featuring Mahomes, Brady, Conner, Etienne, McKinnon, DJ Moore and Prate.

This is Randy’s second weekly win of 2022, and Kim‘s fourth payday of the 2022 campaign. Congrats to RandyH and Kim on their strong showings in Week 17.

The Rookie Report:
Luc didn’t make a move and still posted a 340 to claim fifth place overall for Week 17, besting all the other rookie owners.

First Christmas came early for rookie owner Brett. Now he’s received one final gift this holiday season. Back-to-back winning weeks.

As if he hasn’t been enjoying the charmed life of his Vikings all season long, Brett scored a 405, thanks to a lineup led by Cousins, Tagovailoa, Henry, Akers, Jefferson, D. Smith, Kittle, and Patterson.

TroyA claims second place with a 357, thanks to a roster featuring Mahomes, Tagovailoa, Henry, Kamara, Jefferson, Waddle, Kelce and Crosby.

This is Brett’s second weekly win in as many weeks, and TroyA‘s third payday this season. Congrats to Brett and TroyA on their strong showings in Week 16.

The Rookie Report:
Just like last week, see above. Brett‘s finishing strong.

100-Point Bonus Earned

In the final week to earn a 100-point bonus this season, Kim played Prater (55) who outscored all other players in play, and collected the 100-point bonus for Kim‘s overall standings.

The Leaderboard:

1. TroyA (4599)
2. Eric  (4553)*
3. Jack (4473)*
4. Seth (4464)* 
5. CraigS (4459)
6. Mike (4426)*
7. Heather (4405)
Mr. Eames (4395), Kim (4337)* and David (4284) round out the top 10.

While Seth had a bit of a setback this week, this race is looking like it might be a barn-burner through Week 18. Troy and Eric continue to keep it tight, but some of the high scores that could be put into play by Jack, Mike, Kim and David make this race impossible to predict.

Stay tuned …

Christmas came early for rookie owner Brett, who scored a 397 to win the week, after watching his Vikings score an improbable comeback victory.

Brett‘s team was led by Cousins, Henry, Dobbins, Akers, Jefferson, D. Smith, D. Johnson, Kelce, and Patterson.

Runner-up was Jack, who posted a solid 369 to claim second ahead of a pack of owners. Jack’s lineup featured Hurts, Tagovailoa, McCaffery, McKinnon, Jefferson, Kelce and McLaughlin.

This is Brett’s first weekly win ever, and Jack’s second payday of the 2022 campaign. Congrats to Brett and Jack on their strong showings in Week 15.

As noted above, Brett earns bragging rights, with honorable mention to JamesH, who put his team on autopilot and still scored a 367.

The Leaderboard:
The top four spots remained unchanged, albeit Seth and Eric closed the gap on Troy, while Jack squeaked past Mike, and Heather claimed the final money spot.
1. TroyA (4242)

Mr. Eames (4066), David (3989),and JohnK (3896)* round out the top 10.

The numbers tell the story in terms of drama down the homestretch. A mere 43 points separates first and third, and only 16 points separate fourth through sixth.

Three weeks left to crown our 2022 champion.
