Survivor Finale

Huge come from behind victories for Marsh in the Champions League and Palmiero in the Developmental League.  Survivor champ Tyson led all three teams to victory as Marsh paying big money for everyone worked out, Larry taking Tyson first was wise, and Palmiero stealing Tyson late was obviously the pick of the draft.

That's back-to-back for Marsh, who now joins me and Jaydon as the only multiple winners.  The all-time results are below:

Fall 2013: Marsh
Spring 2013: Marsh
Fall 2012: Loose
Spring 2012: Jaydon
Fall 2011: Larry
Spring 2011: Jaydon
Fall 2010: Loose
Spring 2010: Jaydon
Fall 2009: Jaydon
Spring 2009: Jaydon
Fall 2008: Mags

Coming in last in the champions league, the mighty Jaydon has fallen into the Premiere League, leaving me as the only player to have never played below the top league (cue epic collapse this spring).  Larry will return to the big leagues, Mags will drop down to the bottom of the barrel, and Palmiero will rise up to Premiere.

The foursomes will be as follows...

Champions League
Marsh, Tippy, Me, Larry

Premiere League
Jaydon, Jack, T-time, Palmiero

Developmental League
Mags, Dan, Rizzo, Mandel

P.S. Congrats to Rizzo for not coming in last!
