I'm sure Matthew Berry probably won that league, or at least made the playoffs, too.
If he was the only one streaming, that means he was winning more than he lost.

Actually, it was before Berry was hired at ESPN, when he was still running the TMR site and was writing a weekly column for Sporting News (that's the fantasy staff he was competing against in the league I was talking about).
He failed to place in the money in any of the three years I was working there/around the fantasy guys. Best finish was sixth, as I recall (and this was a no-moves-limit league). It was quite the running joke that Berry couldn't win cash even when he was cheating.
Him getting hired at ESPN was funny; he was by far the least talented fantasy writer, and his performance against the other SN experts was lackluster at best no matter the sport. Shows that a good nickname is more important than substance sometimes, I guess.
