The 2002 Season - Ricky Williams smokes the reefer and runs like a horse
The WoodChucks came into the league as absolute Fantasy Football Rookies, but on the back of Ricky Williams, they left the league champions.
2002 Season Highlights:
For the second year straight a Rookie team came in and took the league championship, the WoodChucks were crowned 2002 champs.
The Peagram Beavers went 11 and 0 before losing the final regular season game, the were knocked out of the first round of the playoffs the following week
Kansas City Chief's Running Back Priest Holmes was on base to break all fantasy records until he was injured with 2 weeks left in the regular season. Until his injury he was averaging 25.7 FF points a week and despite not playing in the final 2 games he still finished the top fantasy player with 361 points. No other player even broke 300 that year.
There fewer details about the 2002 season only due to the fact, that like many organizations, in the beginning we didn't archive data properly. But more then anything the lack of data available has to do with the GOBFFL not actually becoming it;s own league until the 2003 season. Our Division was part of another league in 2001 and 2002, the LTFFL. While many teams, like The Beavers, Wildcards, The Trojans, and The Super Chargers were part of the LTFFL for several years we didn't break away and become are own until 2003. We recognize the 2001 and 2002 champions because by them most of our teams like Captain One Eye and The Fighting Irish were also in the fray. The 2001 and 2002 champs also not only knocked off our Division, which is now the GOBFFL, but went on to play a whole other 12 man champion and wiped the floor with them as well.
