What a season. Feels like just yesterday we were still drafting and believing anything was possible.

Congratulations to everyone that even got to a Week 17 sweat, be it in redraft, dynasty, best ball, survivor, whatever format you play. Sure, there’s luck involved but I always think of this quote from Rounders: “Why do you think the same five guys make it to the final table of the World Series of Poker EVERY YEAR? What, are they the luckiest guys in Las Vegas? It's a skill game, Jo.”

We still have one more game tonight and a lot of high-impact fantasy players involved. Good luck to all those still sweating down to the final whistle. For me personally, I had a pretty strong year making a few best ball finals across DraftKings and Underdog, but my best results will be in the Drafters contest where I am sitting in 4th place and only 11 points behind 2nd place and a $200k prize.

If you want to sweat along with me, we’ll be cheering hard Monday night for Bijan Robinson and Darnell Mooney!
