Generally I bristle at the yearly cry that “this is the strangest NFL season,” but we'll steer into it today. Leo Tolstoy famously said every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way, and that timeless wisdom can be applied to a fantasy campaign. Every year is weird in its own way.
But even with that disclaimer, 2021 felt like the weirdest season of my fantasy lifetime (and I’ve been playing since the 1990s). COVID-19 is a part of our lives now.
With most fantasy leagues complete, it’a time to reflect on what just happened and consider some takeaways.
