Good morning everyone, and welcome to the Pot Cakes Dynasty League Championship Recap. If you have been with us from the beginning, picked up in the middle, or this is your first read, thank you for tuning in. It has been fun. Will it continue? Maybe. Will offseason content be inconsistent? Yes. Did that give away this continuing? Yes. Enough about this, us, we have some winners to talk about. We take a look at the championships, the pick championships, and the prescriptions of Dr. Tilt.
Championship
#3 Touchdown Guy v. #5 PeePaw
v.
What a matchup. I have never seen anything like this. A Picasso couldn’t have painted a better picture for TDG. Friday night Thielen and Jared Cook for TDG, and PeePaw rolled with JJ. Thielen flipped the point projections with 19, JJ had 11, and Cook had 9. TDG over performing, PeePaw under. Saturday morning, the Bucs take on the Lions, TDG has Mike Evans. What a trade, Mikey E showing up big in the biggest weekend of the year. Evans added 35 big ones. This game was out of control. Then the 49ers and Cards. Jeff Wilson added 26 for PeePaw, Aiyuk went under with 3. Good and bad for PeePaw, but a glimmer of hope remained. Dolphins kicker gave TDG a nice 15, sheesh, the kicker. Sunday, the moon must have been dancing because the tides were turning. Ito Smith put in two TDs and 20 points, CeeDee Lamb 22, Miles Sanders 16, and a night cap of Davante Adams, 37 points. Meanwhile TDG had Hurst and Ridley combine for 27. Early playoff helpers like Chad Hansen and Tim Patrick did not have a big game, RBs Melly Gordon and Derrick Henry both ended with under 10 points. The Packers keeping Henry out of the endzone is a mystery that needs a podcast about it. Entering Monday night, PeePaw had a commanding lead of 168.7 to 131.9. PeePaw having the kicker, and TDG having the ever so Tall Josh Allen. Was he tall enough? Yes, oh my goodness Josh Allen is so tall putting up 46 points. TDG winning the first ever trophy 178.1 to 176.7.
I was able to catch up with the 2020 Pot Cakes Dynasty League Champion, Touchdown Guy. TDG said he “woke up Monday with no expectations but Josh Allen is extremely tall and really good. He pulled off another big game and [got us] the win. What a year.” TDG said looking forward to next season that he’s “Looking forward to 2021,” and that once he gets star RB Saquon Barkley back that he will be the cherry on top to his “solid squad”. A true competitor but better person, TDG had this to say about his competition, “Tough matchup for me in the championship with PeePaw. We made a few trades this year and helped each other get here. Can’t say more about PeePaw. It was a dog fight. His team is really good and very deep. He’s gonna be a force the next few years with those wide receivers especially. Not many games end up in the 170s but we’re billt a little different and gave the fans that they wanted.” TDG then ended with the handshake emoji. Unbelievable that a fantasy manager coming off of a thrilling victory would say so many good things about his competition. A true Champion.
I also got a few words from the 2020 Pot Cakes Dynasty League Runner-up, PeePaw. While most of the conversation is for a mature audience, PeePaw knew going into the matchup that it would come down to 4 touchdowns and/or 2 field goals. Well, PeePaw saw the four TDs happen, but the Bills could not sneak a garbage time field goal to swing it back his way. PeePaw shared admiration for TDG and then shared his frustrations as he poured everything he had into this season. He then ended the conversation saying he was taking the next few moments to spend time with loved ones. It was a heart wrenching convo, you could really feel the pain and agony of a Championship loss that took place in the last few minutes of the fantasy season and after having a huge lead. Tough.
What a journey.
3rd Place
#1 Daddy Wombat v. #2 Teach
v.
The good news is that both of these teams lose this week if they were in the ship. Daddy Wombat went with the young QB Hurts and put up some good numbers. Everyone else was bad. Oh wait, what’s that? Alvin Kamara, yah he played, he’s a Daddy Wombat. Daddy Wombat was on cruise control all week as Kamara went on for 55 on Friday. Teach had Aaron Rodgers who just missed 40, Tee Higgins 18, but Zeke being back took the wind from beneath his wings. Daddy Wombat won 137.2 to 107.45.
Consolation Pick #13
#9 Trashman v. #11 Batman
v.
While it was a dark night for some, Batman helped Albert as he took out the trash. Lamar had an average performance of 28 to just sneak in as QB 12 on the year. Miles Gaskin added 31, Juju added 20, James Conner 15, and Darren Waller put up 13. The best thing for Batman outside of pick 13 is that AJ Dillon put up 25 in the taxi. While Gaskin will remain a mystery in the off season, Dillon and Swift are a very promising 1-2 punch for Batman going forward. The amount of hope and wonder for Batman with these two young backs could not be better. Trashman, well things cannot be worse. Rosters are locked, of the 25 eligible roster spots, 4 are QBs and 2 are kickers. The offseason is not promising. Aaron Jones ended with a dozen, but where will he end up next year? Chubb added 15 and the biggest offseason question there is if the Browns get a deal done, could Chubb holdout? Allen Robinson added 15, but where does he go? Curtis Samuel was Trashman’s lead dog with 18, when Curtis Samuel leads your team that is a problem. Trashman is going to have to take a long look in the mirror, at least he has pick 26 to help him out. Batman sweeps Trashman 169.95 to 121.65.
#7 Pistol v. #8 Mush
v.
I did not see this one coming. Dawson Knox tore up the Patriots secondary for 3 and 51 giving Mush the 1 point win over the award winning Pistol. Pistol started Lil’Jordan Humphrey for a goose egg. Monty had 19, Kelce did too. Gage with 4 and the two Packers Broadway Bob and Allen Lazard combined for four. Mush had all day Saturday to think of his starting QB. He went with Marcus Mariota, his love for Oregon QBs is unwavering. Michael Gallup added 27 and Dionte Johnson added 18. Mush pulled it off, the unlikeliest of upsets, winning 118.44 to 117.65. Mush will get Pick 39 and Pistol gets Pick 52.

What a year. Thank you again for everyone who tuned in. A lot of excitement this year in the fantasy football season, congrats again to Touchdown Guy. Hopefully, you are all gearing up for an offseason that consists of stress free football, and what’s that? Did you say mock drafts? I guess you will have to keep an eye out for that.
