IT'S DIVISION ONE FANTASY FOOTBALL! IT'S THE SWAMP LEAGUE!! IT AIN'T INTERMURALS!! ...go play intermurals brother, go play intermurals...
Ugh. Yea we know, we get it guys! But we're back so get used to it Swamp League fans. It's The Weekly Swamp!!
And just like Tim Tebow or genital herpes, we'll be annoying you "all season long" with the best (or as some say; "worst") Swamp League reporting out there.
This is our preseason preview issue where we'll get you up to date and ready for a crazy 2013. First we start with the end of the 2012 season. In a land far far away... In a time long long ago. Well like seven months ago long.
With The Swamp League, you never know what you'll get. You can go 13-0 in the regular season and get bounced first light of the playoffs. On the flipside a team could limp into the playoffs at 6-6-1 and be crowned champion. Back to back champions, even. And that's exactly what happened.
Hairs Hooligans had always been one of those teams that everyone laughed at. They still do. Even so, it seems as though this ragtag team built around the arm of Tom Brady and the legs of Ray Rice has supplanted itself as an elite Swamp League contender and now defending champ. But one off season can change things, sometimes for the worse. Nowadays Welker is riding a Bronco named Manning, Gronk is getting DDT'd by forearm surgery and Hernandez is... Well the dude executes people, was a Florida Gator, runs a flophouse (see "The Wire" for more info) and got cut out of Madden. With Bradys receiving core looking worse than Brooke Crawford at the Hog, can the Hooligans threepeat to cement the beginnings of a dynhairsty?
And how about our beloved Commish? Will there be any timeouts or draft day scandals? After a dismal outing in last years playoffs, will the Gators dust off and reclaim glory?
What are the odds that the longest championship draught in recent fantasy football gets rained on and the Hairs Dallors Curse is finally broken?
What of the Gknights? Quite the bridesmaid as of late, but will the resurgence of Peyton Manning return them to their winning ways?
In 2008, two rookies entered and one claimed championship gold. The other did it one year later in 2009. Will the U bounce back after all the scandal and bowl bans? Kelly Lee better suit and play if The Bad News Hairs wanna take a shot at the finals again.
Over under time sports fans! The magic number? 5 times. As in how many times will The Showtimers switch their name/break up a bar fight at Grog House? Could the top security expert in all of Florida secure a top spot in the playoffs?
The trashiest of all talkers will look to speak up this year and bring the pain as Selfs Soldiers lock and load hoping to hop out of the cellar and plant their flag on Swamp League history. Can #10 drop the zero?
They're big. They're ballers. They're BigBody Ballers and they're the only championship team in the past three years not named Hairs Hooligans. But can The Body, and no we're not talking Jesse Ventura, recapture that RTD flare and make their way back to the top?
"Hey guys, just wanted to thank you for the honor of being a part of such a historic league" - Coach KI Dubbs. Or something like that. In between the whistle blowing and timeouts, this was the signature phrase from our newest rookie, The New Dallor. Now named The Shredder, has Coach KI Dubbs come up with a new strategy for 2013?
Vegas has the odds of a timeout being called at 7/1 and the odds of a Perfect Draft at 2.7M/1, but The Commish commented about the 2013 event saying "Draft will be flawless, no mistakes".
Flawless? Or riddled with penatly flags and controversy? Will the lack of a strong rookie class and the rest of the off season shennanigans affect the highly anticipated 2013 Swamp League Draft?
Many questions have been raised today, some to be answered with tonights Swamp League Draft! Live tonight at 6:30pm EST. TWS will be tweeting live lookins and highlights throughout the draft @TheWeeklySwamp.
