Superbowl Champ Crowned!


Good job Amy Grimes, manager of the Monroe Graders. She has won the coveted k-town fantasy football t-shirt! Way to go.

Amy was able to hold off a hard-charging JP on Sunday night football. For those that missed the fantasy football game of the century, JP came into Sunday night football (Panthers vs. Giants) with a 36-point deficit and one more guy on his roster yet to play - Deangelo Williams. Most commentators had already awarded Amy the trophy, but Deangelo Williams said, "Wait a minute, this ain't over yet!" He proceeded to put on a fantasy football virtuoso performance, scoring 4 touchdowns (that is 100% of the offense for the Panthers). At the end of the 4th quarter, Williams had 33 fantasy points and Amy was sweating bullets big time. But it doesn't stop there, because much to Amy's dismay, the game went into Overtime, i.e. another quarter for Williams to gain more fantasy points! But Deangelo could only muster up one more fantasy point in the overtime period as the Giants went on to win and the Panthers and consequently JP Morrow ended up losers. Final score 96-94!

Had Amy not made the last minute decision to bench her season long QB Aaron Rodgers in favor of the volatile Matt Cassel, she would have lost the Superbowl. It was a risky play, but it paid off, which goes to show that you should take risks in life and follow your dreams!

The Superbowl of Superbowls


Congratulations to Amy and JP on making it to the 2nd annual k-town fantasy football Superbowl! Whoever wins will not only join greatness and can proudly count themselves among past champions, but will also win a customized I Football Fantasy t-shirt designed by acclaimed fashion icon Hien Pham!

Design Analysis

Fans of the emperor of ice-cream will immediately see the handiwork involved in the creation of this design. First, notice that there is a picture of a football. That is because this is a fantasy football t-shirt. Next notice that there is the word fantasy in the design. That is because this is about fantasy football. Last, consider the word I in the design. This is because the t-shirt is a statement in the first person singular indicative.

Superbowl Preview

Amy's road to the Superbowl first came through last year's runner up, Team Reagan, when she obliterated him 122 - 101 in a very high scoring affair in the first round. In the second round she barely edged out former world champion, the emperor of ice-cream 92-65.

JP also mowed down his first round opponent, Team Fisher, by a score of 123 - 57. His second round was much closer, going up against the favored Italian Stallions. Luckily for JP, superstar Brian Westbrook only put up 6 fantasy points on Monday Night Football, giving JP a win at 95 - 83 and trip to the Superbowl.
