Six months ago Nino and I formed a force more ferocious than the Steel Curtain of the 70's. We called our selves...The JewBan Connection (he's Cuban, I am part Jew). We took our skills to the Fantasy Football Field and came away victorious claiming the title in the Fourth Floor League, Second to None. We sent this out at work today:
JEWBAN TAKES SECOND TO NONE TITLE
St. Petersburg, Fla---In one of history’s most dramatic fantasy games, The JewBan Connection won the Second to None Fantasy Football Championship on Sunday with a 96-91 victory over Nastier than Knobbs.
The championship is the first title in the franchise’s first season of existence. Team JewBan was led by team-MVP and championship game-MVP Stephen Jackson in the title game as he rushed for 142 yards, caught two passes for 24 yards and scored four touchdowns for a tally of 40 points. Late acquisitions of the Jets defense and kicker Mike Nugent also aided in securing the team’s victory despite two key players (Marques Colston and Donte’ Stallworth) sitting on the bench and going scoreless on Sunday.
“We are ecstatic that we took home the title,” said Co-GM Jason Latimer. ”We really came together as a team in the end and all our hard work paid off.”
Co-GM Erik Ruiz added, ”Wow…what a season”
JewBan sat atop the league for most of the season finishing with a record of 13-2-1 and scoring an average of 104 points each week including a league-high and record-setting 161 points in a week seven win over J Rookie.
When asked if the GM Dream Team known as the Dynamic Duo would separate, Nino responded, “We are currently in negotiations as we speak. There are a lot of possibilities out there and I need to weigh my options. I also need to do what’s best for my family, my wallet and what will put food on the table. I just want to enjoy this championship feeling right now.”
Highlights of the team’s title run will be available on DVD sometime in the Spring. Fans can enjoy hours of highlights including:
- JewBan’s unbelievable stellar draft despite consuming several cocktails
- The signing of free-agent WR Marques Colston
- The Leon Washington/Waly Lundy discovery
- Nino’s bout with carpel tunnel syndrome causing him to not be able to set a lineup, and how he overcame his disability
- Join the team as they ride they 6-game winning streak in weeks 7-12
- How JewBan overcame the disappointing news that Zach Hilton was not playing this season despite J-Lat’s conviction that Hilton was the steal of the draft
- The team’s blockbuster acquisition of WR Darrell Jackson
- Footage of the trophy presentation, champagne afterparty and J-Lat getting hit in the eye with a Moet cork.
…and much more

I know some are not into the fantasy thing and it is pretty much just a socially accepted form of Dungeons and Dragons (line courtesy of Q) but I dig it and am actually not bad. I came in second place in my other league leading The Wife to comment, "I guess you actually know what you're talking about with this stuff, huh?"
