Lucky Fours co-owner Scott Sanders celebrates his victory in the background.
Well, another wild ride has come to an end, and after all the dust settled, The Lucky Fours, led by owners Scott & Maile, went off into the sunset with the 2010 Death Pool trophy. In perhaps the most competitive season ever, one in which more teams than ever before had multiple kills, and all but one team (newcomer Nancy, in a classic case of rookie jitters) had at least one, it was the smallest death of them all that made the biggest difference.
Yes, the tiebreaker that put the Lucky Fours ahead of everyone else was none other than Mr. Gary Coleman. All other teams with two kills were of the over-50 variety, giving the Fours the edge by a single point, and leaving all other teams to wonder "What if?"
While it would be nice to take a moment to reflect on the Fours' first title in franchise history, we're not going to do so. Mostly because our team didn't win (again), but also because January is already upon us, and a new season has begun! 2011 promises to be yet another intense battle, full of incredible kills, inexcusable omissions, and terrible post headlines. Starting rosters and initial power rankings will be up soon, but as a teaser, let's just say an experienced group of owners have returned and put together an impressive array of talent. For the first time in DPL history, there is not a single rookie owner, which should cut down on the number of drafting mistakes, and increase the total number of points awarded.
It's going to be a great year in dying, let's get it on!
