Vintage Bay Mofra's Bottom 50 of 2017 - the "finals were better last year" Edition

[Wosh]

Best.
Have a great Xmas Mof

Fantastic writeup again Mofra, we appreciate all your hard work.

Mofra, kudos to a great read.
I found myself checking BF with antici
pation almost as often as I did waiting for trade & draft news.
Congrats on Tyra for “winning” the number 1 spot, & cheers Mofra for reminding us of the time Tyra took down the wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tubeman & the melts that followed.

Well done again. Admittedly the Top 5* almost wrote themselves and the bar has been set to the lowest level yet for 2018, it'll be tough to suck more than 2017

Why thank you all. This year was a little different, amazing top end talent but not the even spread of last year which could have easily been a bottom 70 as opposed to the bottom 55-60 of this year.

Jade really was a bad acquisition.

But there was also Allen Jackovich and plenty of other forward-types that didn't work out but we still traded for during the 2000s.

That was an era of recruiting ineptitude from the Dogs.

 

[SCRAY72]

So many deserved players. So many unlucky to miss out.
Well done Mof, enjoyed the ride all the way.
A quarter of this year's bottom 50 are gone so look forward to some fresh names and some bottom 50 legends returning in 2018.

Chris Mayne can’t even make THIS side?!

 

[CaptainChardonnay]

Chris Mayne can’t even make THIS side?!

All about team balance.......

 

[Norm De Guerre]

That was an ok read I guess.

 

[TerryWallet]

After multiple years of Bottom 50's, normally burnout would be well upon us by now.

That it is not, is a credit to mofra's turn of phrase and knowledge of his twisted audience.

Scott Clayton I assume

 

[darklake]

Thanks for your brilliance.
Merry Christmas Mof & to all
the Mrs Mofra's!.

"an incident so ugly that Boris Yeltsin and Caroline Wilson could have been the parents". I actually weed when I read that. Time to change underwear.

Still better than Norf

 

[Starburns_]

Still better than Norf

Don't forget the Brions too. No players on the list, leading me to believe they're all in the sub-bottom 50.

Or all in the irrelevant top 50....

 

[Schulzenfest]

I would’ve thought Schache would’ve been the right combination of relevant, underperforming on field and being a flog off-field to get a bottom 50 spot TBH

 

[Over The Post]

There has to be a cutoff somewhere, Schulz. Apparently there were about 200 players competing for the lower placings. Maybe next year he'll spud it up enough.
