In 2007, Dan Napier created a fantasy football league. He sent out invites to a list of promising fantasy football prospects and soon he had filled the 10 spots on the roster. Little did he know that he had just drafted one of the most diverse and competitive fantasy football owners roster in the history of the game.
In appreciation of Napes' genius in assembling the owners roster, in 2008 the league was named after his team, The Sea Generals. He has worn this honor with the pride, adding his expert trash talk to the boards and giving the league the character that it has made it famous.
Uncle Nape's rivalries are few, but what he lacks in quantity he makes up for in quality.
Jensen: According to Uncle Nape himself, Jensen is the only person he really cares about beating. The big guy seems to have a target on his back and shows up on almost everyone's rivalry list, but this matchup is always a real barn burner. The contrast of Jensen's tried and tested RB/QB first strategy and Napes "best available" is put to the test during every matchup. In 2010, Jensen won their only meeting 136 to 111 (as well as the league). Will Napes change his draft strategy this year and rebound from a dismal 3-10 year?
PBody: As former roommates, PBody and Napes spent two solid years competing on nearly a daily basis. Whether it was on the basketball court, XBox, or fantasy football, the matchups always resulted in massive amounts of shit talking and gloating. After making and being ridiculed for making perhaps the worst trade in fantasy football history to PBody in 2010, Napes will be looking for revenge in 2011.
