FFFL Profiles: Ed Montgomery

Today we will be profiling one of the original members of the FFFL, Ed Montgomery. When asked if he would like to be part of a new up and coming fantasy football league Ed was reluctant. With a little pressure from Pat Furlong, Ed relented and told Pat to create him a Yahoo id. He forgot about the draft and was saved by a last minute phone call from Pat. Since then he has gone on to win an FFFL Championships and has placed in the top 3 numerous times.

Ed is known for his secret "websites" that help him conduct fantasy research and the "websites" some how rank each position of each team in the FFFL. Mysteriously, his team is always at the top of each position ranking. In his early years he could talk trash with the best of them. Lately he has been on the sidelines, but the infusion of some new blood has seemingly brought out the best in his trash talk. Hopefully this will continue. Ed is also the Brett Favre of the FFFL, having retired numerous times, only to return.

 Disclaimer: the following quotation is Ed's write up on himself, try not to laugh.

" Be sure to mention I’ve run 7 marathons, won 3 Northern Exposures, FFFL championships, 2 Marzolino Golf Classic championships.  You also may want to highlight you NEVER took me down in our wrestling matches, not through grade school and not through high school.  A street should be named after me!!"
