The Toboggans

One MVP. Two All-Pro selections. Eight seasons. No Iron Jug. It is the oldest and least interesting kind of hole in a career and it is the only one that gets brought up, every year, by people who have never played. It did not, in the end, come down to him alone — it never does. But The Toboggans won it 25-20, and a fortnight from now nobody will be able to describe this season without describing Sunday.

This feature ran in the paper in the Iron Jug of 2022. The rest of the season is there too.
