After a day spent crying and sucking my thumb, I'm finally ready to talk about Sunday. Mulligan beat me in the championship game. I went to bed winning by about 30 points. I told him he'd need a big game from Alfred Morris in order to win, and sure enough, the awesomely named runningback scored a billion points and I woke up to the disheartening news Monday morning.
I'll let Yahoo's recap generator do the explaining for you...
Championship: ItsOnLikeNdamukong Comes from Behind to Edge B-Vers
- ItsOnLikeNdamukong (11-6) 132

- B-Vers (10-6) 127

ItsOnLikeNdamukong got the fourth-highest point total in the
league (regular season + playoffs) and erased a 34-point deficit on
Sunday night to edge B-Vers 132 - 127. The miniscule 5-point playoff win
was the eighth-smallest difference over all matchups this season.
ItsOnLikeNdamukong has put a nice string together after winning their
last three matchups in a row. ItsOnLikeNdamukong makes it three in a row
against B-Vers, following up an 87 - 84 win in Week 12. The result
might have been worse, ItsOnLikeNdamukong had a starter score zero
points (Brandon Lloyd).

Not that I'm a poor sport or anything, but I'm nominating Mulligan for Jerk of the Year.
