The 2009 National Lampoon Fantasy Football Challenge!

Written by Garrett Hargrove

We’ve assembled the best that National Lampoon has to offer* for a Fantasy Football league.  The people at Splog! are taking on the Zaz! Report.  Why is it called the “Fantasy Football Challenge”?  Because it sounds more exciting than the “Fantasy Football Article We Hope You Read”.  We’ll be playing out a full season and will be recapping the draft, the weekly matchups and results, the smack talk and the inevitable, Cubs-like letdown incurred by the Cowboys at the end of a promising season resulting in Jerry Jones’ plastic face melting like the dude at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

* - “The Best That National Lampoon has to offer” with the exception of Harold Ramis, Ryan Reynolds, Chevy Chase, Beverly D’Angelo, Ethan Embry, Randy Quaid, Christie Brinkley, Kal Penn, Bill Murray, Chris Miller, Henry Beard, Anthony Michael Hall, any of the deceased persons who were once associated with National Lampoon, Wayne Newton, Matt Frewer, Tim Matheson, John Landis, Ali Larter, any of the chicks that got naked in any of the Lampoon films, Paris Hilton, Jon Bon Jovi, that dog with the big balls in Van Wilder, Emilio Estevez, Samuel L. Jackson, William Shatner, Dennis Leary, yes I am just going through the Lampoon films and finding the big names, Tim Curry, Kathy Ireland,  Jason Mewes or even Nadine Rajabi. We couldn’t even get Judd Nelson.

The draft for this league is set for this Wednesday and we’ll be posting that a few days after.  We fully encourage readers to write it and openly mock our decisions.  Here are the people involved:
