I told him, "I knew Patrick Mahomes was the truth."

"Oh, sure, I suppose so. It probably did help that you got a really lucky break with Mahomes."

"I don't think you quite understand. I'm a Chiefs fan. I KNEW he was going to be amazing, and I also could tell everybody was sleeping on him. The practice reports, team reports, all the scrimmage footage, and the improvement I saw from preseason to week 17 of last year... everything about him spelled the best QB in fantasy football since Rodgers in 2011. Other than take players I liked, that was my entire strategy. Acquire Patrick Mahomes."

"...Oh." Dumbass stares at me like I'm insane.

Whatever. It was my first year participating in that thing, and I kicked their asses with MY QB. Not some douche**** NFC QB I had to draft in the 1st round, and not some random reerun I plucked off of waivers when he had a big game. It was the guy I had pegged because I KNEW he was going to be this good when nobody else did. Because he's the QB for my team.

Feels good, man.

Was he your first round pick?
