Fantasy Football Banquet

OK, so we're going to go a little backwards in time - before the Peg Perego Skate was purchased and review our 2008 Beltway Fantasy Football Championship Banquet.

Each year, the league owners gather for a luncheon to celebrate a successful season and award our champion.
This year, Michael Motorcycle won their second consecutive (and third overall) championship. Owner, Mike McNeive was awarded the newly-engraved league trophy, newly embroidered gold league blazer and $400 cash.
Along with the regular season champion awards, several other owners went home with BFF Pro-Bowler recognitions....
My team, the Camo Pirates, had two pro-bowlers in our conference.
Will's team, Will Power, had their quarterback, Drew Brees, representing the conference.
The Estonian Rebels and owner, Mike Maiste had their first ever pro-bowl selection with running back, Michael Turner.
Despite a disappointing 2008 season, the Berrywood Bombers and owner, Dustin Pfeifer, had a great wide receiver in Anquan Boldin.
Chris Walbert and The Squeakers were the surprise team of 2008 and had the most players resepented from a team.
Justin Smith and the Fleetwood Macks came to the banquet not expecting any awards, but were happy to have two selections.
Everyone had a good time and a great lunch at By The Docks that Sunday afternoon (although one or two of our guests experienced some awful food poisoning symptoms the next day). We had to owners go home without any awards:
Jared Pfeifer and the Glenoak Block Party rounded out a disappointing 2008 with no awards.
Greg Armstrong was all smiles, despite having none of his Strong Arm players selected to the BFF Pro-Bowl. His team has yet to have any Pro-Bowl players in the history of the league.
Next on the BFF agenda is the 2009 Winter Owners Meeting which will lead into the 2009 Draft/Auction to be held in September of this year.
