Fifty years of playing Fantasy Football comes to an end.

[transplant99]

Pretty remarkable story.

There were 16 members of the original Greater Oakland Professional Pigskin Prognosticators League (GOPPPL), and Mousalimas is the last active member. Many have died, and others moved on. Two of them, Ron Wolf and Scotty Stirling, ended up as NFL general managers, Wolf with the Packers, Stirling with the Raiders. In fact, Stirling was a two-sport GM, working in that capacity for the Golden State Warriors and New York Knicks as well. "They had bigger things to do," Mousalimas says. "Me? I owned a pub, so I'm still playing." Even with 50 years of turnover, it's a veteran group gathered on this night, with a few younger people sprinkled in among the old-timers. Perhaps the average age of the contestants is a reason Robert Griffin III didn't go until the ninth round and Trent Richardson wasn't taken until the seventh pick of the fifth round. Stripes have to be earned in this room
