Ron Mexico
The key to success in football is identifying (and exploiting) the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up Team Margaritaville at the wide receiver position (50.5 points to 24.4).
Team Margaritaville
Tis the season, Team Margaritaville! We hope the GM of Ron Mexico will write a thank-you card for the generous 82.06-point gift this past week.
