KID Championship - The Battle of Good vs. Evil


This is a glimpse of our future if Matt Hunt wins a fantasy football championship.
Some believe that the Mayan calendar has predicted the end of the world nearly one year from today, on December 21st, 2012.  Instead, I fear that our doomsday is much closer than that.  I'll let film superstar Rick Moranis explain:



As you can tell, "a giant Slor" is code for "Matt Hunt's fantasy football team," a disgusting monstrosity whose victory will cause nothing but pain and despair for those around it.  Make no mistake, Hunt's team is an abomination forged by ungodly acts like drafting Mike Williams, Kellen Winslow, Danny Amendola, Justin Forsett, and the Patriot defense in the middle rounds.  I declared that Hunt had the worst draft in our league back in August, and I was right.  Out of the 12 players he picked, only two of them are still on his roster.

Yet Hunt still finished with a bye, thanks to the Axis of Evil: Aaron Rodgers, Arian Foster, and Fred Jackson.  Hunt then created a pact with the devil, using his 2012 draft as collateral.  By trading away five of his first eight picks, he stacked his roster, but sealed his fate in the process.  Win or lose, Hunt's future after this season looks as dark as his soul.

Nevertheless, we all are rightfully afraid of living in a world where Matt Hunt has won a fantasy championship.  Imagine the unending smacktalk.  The boastful emails.  The unsettling feeling that our league's trophy will reside in Canada for a year.  Only one hero can save us from this evil fate: Sumit.

Sumit's is trying to repeat as KID champion.  He supplemented good keepers like Drew Brees and Ray Rice with shrewd draft picks like Wes Welker, A.J. Green and Reggie Bush.  He earned a bye without selling next year's draft down the river.  And he's just an all-around better person than Matt.  Here is the matchup:


Obviously, both these teams have excellent rosters.  Their star running backs, Rice and Foster, have favorable matchups against weak run defenses.  And Welker and Marques Colston both compiled over 100 yards in the first meetings against their respective opponents.  Ultimately, I think the championship will be decided by the quarterback who excels the most against a familiar division opponent.  I predict that Sumit will find himself down 20 points, needing a strong outing from Brees to overtake Hunt on Monday night.  I want to believe that he can, only because I don't want to live with the alternative.
