2009 AUCTION RECAP: MIAZGA-HERIGODT STANDOFF

Welcome to Finks League season 2009.

 Thanks for getting your bid sheets in. For those interested in a behind-the-scenes look at this year's auction, perhaps the highlight had to be the blind-draw selection pitting the husband-wife clash of Mike Miazga's Eggers and defending champion Kris Herigodt's Brawlers. In what should be considered more than a coincidence, both Mike and Kris bid 11 cents for PK Hartley NO.

Other notes:

• By far, the most popular player in the auction was RB Jones-Drew JAX, who received five bids amounting to $95.28. Quags (33.23) won out over Serkus (31.01).
• The auction's top bidder belonged to Dah Commish's more than generous $42.10 bid for RB Turner ATL. What was he thinking?
• The Eggers got who they wanted. Miazga nailed three of his top four RB selections and four of his top six WR selections.
• Missed it by that much. The Posse nipped Serkus .52-.51 for RB McFadden OAK. The Eggers beat Newt 15.07-15.00 for WR A. Johnson HOU. The Barrels topped Serkus for WR Bowe KC, 2.04-2.01.

In our 16th year, the bid sheets still vary from owner to owner. If you have an empty roster spot, then you got beat out for your selections. Free-agent bidding begins after Week 1. Good luck to you all.
