Season 43: Spring 2021

Here is your Spring 2021 Recap, where you can find out who won all the individual awards that we didn't collect prize money for but they still at least matter for bragging rights!

Welcome to Season #43, Spring 2021, yet another coronafied season.

Despite very close team standings that resulted in 4 of the 6 teams having a realistic shot at the championship and a set of circumstances that made tie very likely, Gordon Michael's Groupies managed to pull off a clean victory that saved us all the headache of needing to break a two or possibly three way tie. But one other thing they may not have realized? They also finished as the second strongest team in league history. Congrats, guys!
