Tilt-A-Whirl DivisionTyler, Opey (Div. Captain), Brandon | Watkinsville DivisionTrevor, Dustin (Div. Captain), Devarus | Medieval RoombaThis robotic vacuum cleaner randomly popped balloons to determine our draft order. |
Battle Bot Roomba vs. BalloonsIt's like fight club for nerds. | Sucks to Suck 2022We always recognize the member with the lowest single-week score of the year. In the middle of a hotly contested Sacko Bowl, Bobo's B****es posted a measly score of 46.84 points. How he avoided Waffle House, we'll never know... | Streaker Award 2022 - ZanGoing on a run from weeks 3-7, Zan started the season hot and eventually ended up in the playoffs with a wild card berth. |
Streaker Award 2022 - DaltonAccepting the inaugural Streaker Award on behalf of his older brother, Dalton, Keaton is pictured with Co-Commissioner, Dustin. Dalton went on a run in weeks 8-12. | Regular Season Champ 2022After several years of tough luck and bad breaks, Opey finally found success in the Church of Gronk. Not only did he win his division, but he put together a 10-4 campaign that won him the title of Regular Season Champ. | R.O.Y. + Moral Victories 2022Two rookies entered the league in 2022. One of them barely escaped an extended stay at a Waffle House. The other, Keaton, went 7-7 and eventually won the consolation bracket. This earned him the Moral Victory Award as well as the title of Rookie of the Year. |
Puckered Award 2022Brandon (right) won the closest matchup of the year by beating Josh (left) by just 0.38 points in week 5! | Please Make it Stop 2022 - JustinLosing streaks suck. No other way to put it. Justin lost five straight contests from weeks 1-5, sparking his Sacko campaign and earning him part of a three-way tie for the inaugural Please Make it Stop Award. | Please Make it Stop 2022 - BoboLosing streaks suck. No other way to put it. Bobo's B****es lost five straight contests from weeks 4-8, earning him part of a three-way tie for the inaugural Please Make it Stop Award. |
Please Make it Stop 2022 - DevarusLosing streaks suck. No other way to put it. Devarus lost five straight contests from weeks 5-9, earning him part of a three-way tie for the inaugural Please Make it Stop Award. | Manager of the Year 2022Despite an up-and-down start to the season, Josh managed his team to a 9-5 regular season record and, eventually, his second straight Church of Gronk championship. The first member to go back-to-back in the 12 years of this league's existence. | No Offense 2022Scoring the fewest points in the fantasy regular season, Justin's squad mustered just 1,335.22 points through 14 weeks. |
Master Bettor 2022For the first time in his Church of Gronk career, Opey takes the Master Bettor Award after going 5-of-7 for a 71% hit rate on his 2022 side bets. | League Leprechaun 2022Lucky enough to have the fewest points scored against him during the 2022 regular season, Dustin "Slick Willy" Watkins earned the inaugural League Leprechaun Award. He had just 1,516.92 points scored against him through 14 weeks. | Leaky D 2022 - DaltonOn behalf of his older brother who is no longer in the league, Keaton accepted the Leaky D Award for Dalton Smith. In 2022, Dalton suffered the most points against in the Church of Gronk regular season - 1,759.56. |
High Roller 2022For the second time in three seasons, Cole's team scored the most fantasy points through the Church of Gronk regular season. In 2022, his team totaled 1,838.46 points. | Benchwarmer Award 2022Tyler's bench totaled 680.4 fantasy points through the 2022 fantasy regular season. Most in the Church of Gronk. | Certified Sacko 2022Justin finished 2022 with a 3-11 record, and lost the Sacko Series 2-1 at the hands of Bobo. |
Great Value Award 2022Tyler drafted Lions RB, Jamaal Williams, at 12.02. Williams finished as RB12 for the season. Talk about a diamond in the rough... | Bust of the Year 2022Dustin took Colts RB, Jonathan Taylor, at 1.01. Taylor finished as RB30. BUST CITY! | Keaton the TrollServing one of our Party Foul Bingo punishments, Keaton had to become a "troll under the bridge", forced to sit under the draft table for the duration of one complete round. |
See No Evil, Hear No EvilFor one of the 2023 Party Foul Bingo punishments, Cole had to go blind (blindfolded) and deaf (ear plugs) from the time he committed the foul until he announced his next pick. In case you're wondering, he wandered to the podium and drafted rookie QB Anthony Richardson. | The Thinking OpeyTime for reflection... | Party Foul PushupsNo party foul goes unpunished in the Church of Gronk! |
2022 Draft SetupThe calm before the storm that was our 2022 fantasy draft in Mentone, AL. | 2022 Draft BoardThis is how it all shook out after exorbitant amounts of smack talk, alcohol, and tacos. | 2018 Draft ThrowbackCheck out this band of misfits after our 2018 draft at TopGolf in Alpharetta, GA. If you look closely, you'll see a puddle of vomit in the right side of the photo where one of our founding fathers showed that he can't hold his liquor... |
Leprechaun Josh4x Champion, Josh Yarber, enjoying some St. Patrick's Day festivities. | 2022 Sacko Punishment Complete!After finishing in last place in 2022, Justin Yarber spent 10 hours in a Waffle House, gorging himself with baked batter and maple syrup... | Starting the draft with a bang! |

2020 Certified SackoLoser Punishment knows no bounds. Even after the humiliation of coming in last place, then suffering the Waffle House Challenge for 10 hours, it only felt right to present this man with a beautiful certificate to commemorate his mediocrity. This should look nice next to the family portrait. | 2020 Life Alert AwardAfter mustering just 1,374 total points in 2020 (lowest in the league), it was apparent that Zan's fantasy team had fallen and just couldn't get up. | 2020 Rookie of the YearBrandon finished as the top rookie in 2020. Won his division, made the playoffs, and took 3rd place overall. (He also helped pay for the draft party's hydration...) |
2020 Sucks to SuckBy barely breaking 71 points in a single week, Zan earned this award, created for the member putting up the lowest single-week score of the year. | 2020 High RollerCole finished the season with the most total points - 1685+. | 2020 Flash In A PanTyler put up the highest single-week score of the year, scoring just over 176 points in week 12. Moral victories... |
2020 Puckered AwardAs a rookie, Caleb Payton took down the commish himself by just 0.34 points in week 5. This ended up being the tightest margin of victory all season, and literally came down to the final drive of the mid-week Bills @ Titans game. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while... | 2020 Close, But No CigarTyler lost in week 5 to rookie member, Caleb Payton, in the matchup ending with the tightest margin - 0.34 points. #Brutal | 2020 Knockout of the YearJaime defeated Devarus in week 6 by a margin of over 68 points, earning himself this award for the single biggest win of the year. Flex on 'em, Opey! |
2020 Battered & BruisedIn week 6, Devarus took a beating by 68+ points at the hands of Jaime, and earned this award for the worst beating of the year. | 2020 Master BettorSide bets are a key component of our annual draft event. This man, ironically our league's co-commish and treasurer, made and won the most bets of anyone at the 2020 draft. | #WaffleHouseChallenge2020 Sacko, Zan, fulfilling his obligations as the worst fantasy football player from that season. |
