fantasy football
Anyone who loves fantasy sports has (most likely) binged the FX sitcom "The League". This series serves as an accurate illustration of just how consuming fantasy football can become. It's also motivated the members of the Church of Gronk to grow this league into more and more of a spectacle with each passing year. In this show, the person who finishes in last place at the end of the fantasy season is deemed "The Sacko" and must carry that shame with them until the next season arrives.
​
In the Church of Gronk, we substitute a Sacko trophy with punishments that are discussed at the annual draft party and voted upon by all league members. To this point, our punishments have included:
-
Wearing pink princess attire to the draft party
-
Wearing a glittery toilet seat around one's neck during the draft party
-
Serving as the "beer b**ch" for the duration of the draft
-
The Waffle House Challenge
And there are probably a few things we've forgotten...

*This league did not keep record of "The Sacko" until the 2016 season.
