Five years ago this month RotoGrinders opened to the public. A whopping 27 members signed up that month. Things started a bit slow but my how we’ve grown.

I took a trip down memory lane looking through the early registrations. I wanted to give some shoutouts to guys that joined in the very beginning, July 2010, and helped this community get off the ground:
Buffalo66: 7/6/10
Tippy: 7/12/10
PrimeTime420: 7/19/2010 (original #1 in Rankings)
kcearnal: 7/20/2010 (got married and disappeared from DFS, but came to first RG party)
beermakersfan: 7/22/2010 (before he was on the back cover of every season long Fantasy Football magazine and featured on ESPN)
headchopper: 7/27/2010 (5 years of great snarky posts)

Congrats to all the top performers. Very impressive with such a giant field
When should we expect the announcement? Not trying to rush anyone, but I can’t keep myself from checking periodically. It would be nice to know if it is going to be tonight or tomorrow.

I’m shooting to get this done tomorrow. Just need to get a bit of time with a developer.

And last but not least, the $1000 ticket OG Bonus goes to MikeDeatWorld, who plays on DraftKings as BigTymer.
He registered on 7/23/2011 and finished in 3114th place.
What was the lowest score that won a prize here? I did not link my account (stupidly) but am curious if I would have won anything here with my 472
472 wouldn’t of had a chance.
Thanks! Was hoping i would sneak into the top 20 and really appreciate all the help I got from Rotogrinders on building my lineups.

Looks like 392 :-(

so I read Zach Johnson’s own words (which appear below) leading me to fade him completely…. guess that logic didn’t quite pay off….
In Zach’s own words:
“[St. Andews] is my least favorite in the rotation. I say that and I love that tournament and I still like St. Andrews. That’s how much I love that tournament. I think St. Andrews is terrific but it’s my least favorite… “I feel like it’s one where you just gotta hit it left and you gotta hit it 290 in the air and it just doesn’t favor me. I say that and I’m telling you right now it’s my favorite tournament to play in and I like St. Andrews. It’s just not my favorite of the other ones I’ve played. They’re all so good. I mean Muirfield is phenomenal. My first was Troon and I thought that was terrific. Turnberry is great. Lytham is tremendous. Carnoustie is brutally hard, but it’s great. That’s my rationale there.”Looks like the 392nd tie was 523 pts
Congrats to the winners
Very generous! Thank you!!
same here man…same here….

I had him on 5 of 10 teams but at the last hour I switched him after listening to the PGA After Dark podcast. Live and learn – the stats and history at the course didn’t look good but in this case recent form won out.
Whoa…I’m pretty stoked! Thanks Cal/DK!
