JDaddy!
There wasn't much drama for 1st place in Week 18 as JDaddy cruised to victory. However, that doesn't mean that craziness wasn't happening elsewhere in the standings. With an amazing 14-2 finish, Uncle J stormed back to finish in 2nd place, just 4 games off the lead.
After a promising first 3/4 of the season, The Kid struggled down the stretch. However, he still finished over .500, which in some years would have been good enough to win. But not this year.
Thanks for reading and keeping up with us. What started as picking games against a 4-year-old, has morphed into picking games against a kid that's bigger than all of us.
The win for JDaddy gives him 4 wins all time, tying him for the career lead. Our all-time standings are now:
JDaddy: 4
The Kid: 4
Uncle J: 3
CDog: 2
See you in September! Go Cowboys!
