CAREER RANKINGS | #3 RICH CALDERON

RICH CALDERON Est. 2003 LAST SEASON Heading into 2023, if Calderon could reach the playoffs, while Bob failed, he could tie him as the best at reaching the playoffs. This looked great early on, as Rich won his first three contests, which included a 2,096-point weekly high score win over Colby in week three. Of…

CAREER RANKINGS: #4 MATT NEATOCK

MATT NEATOCK Est. 2003 LAST SEASON 2023 did not prove to be one of Neatock’s finest seasons, despite making a third straight trip to the playoffs. He dropped his first two games and through six weeks he was just 2-4, topping 1,400 only twice. In week seven, he came across a cold Vozzola and defeated…

CAREER RANKINGS | #5 COLBY HALL

COLBY HALL Est. 2004 LAST SEASON Greatest title defense ever? There’s no other way to describe Colby’s 2023 campaign. We had three previous teams win back-to-back titles. I did it in 1999-2000, with a squad that won ten games, averaged 1,423 per game, finishing second in the standings and scoring. Bob did back-to-back in 2010-2011.…

CAREER RANKINGS: #6 GRIFF COOMER

Griff

GRIFF COOMER Est. 1999 LAST SEASON Finally, after a brutal five-year stretch where Griff, Griff, voted most likely to have truck nuts on his Toyota Corolla, failed to qualify for a playoff spot, he managed to finally secure a postseason invite. Of course, things didn’t look good in week one. Not only did Griff lose,…

CAREER RANKINGS: #7 MICHAEL EVANGELIST

MICHAEL EVANGELIST Est. 2019 LAST SEASON No one comes out of the gate like Evangelist. He began his career with back-to-back 4-0 starts. In 2022, he was 5-2 through seven. In 2023, he rolled to a third 4-0 start that turned into a 5-0 beginning to the season. The question is, would he struggle down…

CAREER RANKINGS | #8 ROB MASTERSON

ROB MASTERSON Est. 2002 LAST SEASON 2023 proved to not be Rob’s season. His team struggled out of the gate, going 2-3, averaging only 1,116 per contest. A pair of wins over Bob and Griff in week six and seven, which included a 1,866-point effort, put him at 4-3 and kept his playoff hopes alive.…

CAREER RANKINGS | #9 JEFF GREENBLATT

JEFF GREENBLATT Est. 2003 & 2009 LAST SEASON After a tough 2022, Jeff rebounded in 2023. Working the wire unlike any time in the past, Jeff won his first two games and five of his first seven, topping 1,600 twice and never dipping below 1,400 in any of those seven games. However, between weeks 8-11,…

CAREER RANKINGS: #10 ERIC VOZZOLA

ERIC VOZZOLA Est. 2001 LAST SEASON After a fluky 2022 where Eric was a dominate regular season god, who produced 12 wins and averaged 1,606 per game, the second most ever scored in the regular season, Eric returned to doing what he does best, barely getting into the postseason. Stuck with an inconsistent team all…

CAREER RANKINGS | #11 RICHARD BURRIER

RICHARD BURRIER Est. 2003 LAST SEASON Burrier began his 2023 campaign with a week one defeat where he scored only 657 points. It his second lowest point total in his 22-year career. He would go on to lose six of his first seven games. Over the next five weeks, he would win four contests, topping…

Career Rankings | #12 DON VOZZOLA

UNCLE DON VOZZOLA Est. 2001 LAST SEASON Started the year winning his first three games, but a week four defeat to Griff was the beginning of a brutal nine-week losing streak, that featured two weekly low scores and four total games under 1,000. He did manage to keep Bob out of the playoffs in week thirteen,…

Greatest Teams to Never Win a Title

Technically, this is the one great team each of you had that failed to win it all. RICH CALDERON – 2019  RECAP This team became just the second team in league history to win 12 out of 13 games in the regular season. Rich began the year winning his first nine games, which included scoring…

Ranking All 25 Champions

25 Years has produced 25 champions. I lead the way with five titles, with both Bob and Matt one championship behind. The only two not on this list are Masterson and Michael. Colby has obviously gone back-to-back. Yet, which one of these 25 titles is the most impressive? Let’s find out using logic and math.…

2024’s Never-too-Early Mock Draft

The old days, mock drafts were easy. 90% of the first round picks were running backs, but those days are gone. Last year, only six backs were kept or drafted in round one. This season, if a trio of receivers went one-two-three, no one would be that surprised. Add in the fact that some of…

First Round Tight Ends | A Brief History

In total, a tight end has been taken in the first round eight times. They are Travis Kelce, who leads the pack with four times. Gronkowski was taken in round one twice and Jimmy Graham and Mark Andrews were each selected once. Six of the eight teams that used a first round pick on a…

When all was said and all was done, Colby Hall sat alone atop a mountain of success…again. Thanks to a 1,508-1,408 victory over Micheal Evangelist,…

2023 Championship Preview | #3 Dudelove vs #1 Bukaya Saka

All season long, Bukaya Saka, led by Colby Hall, has been on track to become the fourth team in this league’s history to earn back-to-back titles. The others were me in 1999-2000, Bob in 2010-2011 and Matt 2017-2018. After a sluggish 3-3 start it might have seemed like an impossible task, but then Colby’s boys…

2023 Playoffs | Who Wants Colby?

The 25th addition of the Robioland Football Playoffs is upon us. We have our eight, but in reality, all the talk is on Colby Hall. The defending champ is looking to become the fourth person in league history to go back-to-back mugs. On top of that, he’s coming off a regular season where he won…

2023 All-ROBIO Awards

With the regular season done, it’s time to hand out some awards. It’s the annual All-Robio first-team, second-team and third-team awards, brought to you by Preparation H: a little relief is better than nothing. This year’s big winner in the All-Robio is Colby Hall. His squad delivered five All-Robio players, including a pair of first-team…

2023 First Round Midseason Report

Championships aren’t won with a first-round pick, but they do matter. And in the era of the keeper, it’s no guarantee you’re walking out of the first with a stud. So, how did everyone do? Overall, the numbers coming out the first round are good. Chubb is the only first rounder to get knocked out…

Colby “Hope” Hall…The Story of a Champion

Hope. Not just a word they cram into every Star Wars film. Hope is what fantasy seasons are built upon. The last three seasons have proven that all anyone needs is a little hope and a perfectly timed winning streak. The last three seasons we have seen three straight teams earn long awaited titles. In…

2022 All-Robio Teams

Welcome to the annual All-Robio awards. It’s like the Golden Globes, but with less cocaine. Surprisingly, Eric does not need the league with All-Robio players. He has just two, while Bob, Matt, Michael and I each have three. However, both of his are first-team skill players. Burrier can lay claim to the same honor: only…

2022 PLAYOFFS | IT’S ERIC AND EVERYONE ELSE

Last year, Eric shocked the world to become the first and only 8-seed to win a championship, proving what I always say, “just make the playoffs and win three games.” Does anyone have a miracle run in them this time around? The top headline all season has been wrapped around Bob Castrone. He began the…

THE FALL OF THE COOMER EMPIRE

History is littered with fallen Empires. The Aztez, the Egyptians, the Romans, as well as the band Journey, MTV’s television programming and Neatock’s hairline. The collapse of Griff is not equal to the collapses of any of these great dynasties. His fall from grace feels more like the fall of Jared Fogle (the Subway guy).…

THIS WAS THE YEAR | AN ERIC VOZZOLA STORY

2021 All-Robio Awards

FULL LIST HERE. FIRST-TEAM ALL-ROBIO QB – Josh Allen (Colby) – 363 PPG Colby went off-script this year, using his first two picks on a tight end and a quarterback. Both worked out well.

2020 Semifinals Predictions

2020 Playoff Predictions | 8 Teams, One Champion

We began the year with a trio of unbeaten teams in Jeff, Michael and Griff. The latter faded fast and hard, joining both Masterson and Neatock as hopeless wonders without the wonder. Michael eventually lost, but stopped the bleeding rather quickly, while Jeff suddenly found winning tough to come by as we headed down the…

2020 Midseason Report

2020 Midseason All-Pickup Team
