Welcome to Fantasy Guru 37's Blog. I will try to post a few times per week discussing sports and their fantasy implications. I will focus primarily on the NHL, NFL, and NCAAF, however I touch upon PGA Tour golf, the NBA, and NCAAB. Your comments are always appreciated. Feel free to email me at fantasyguru37@gmail.com with any questions or feedback you may have.

Trivia Challenge Winner

The time has come to crown the champion of the first ever Trivia Challenge. In order to capture victory, a knowledgeable blog follower must be able to successfully identity a mystery figure from a set of clues designed to trick even the brightest of minds. To complicate matters even further, only one contestant may be awarded victory, meaning that only the first challenger to correctly identify the mystery man receives anything. This adds a level of stress and uncertainty to an already difficult task.

But the reward for winning is great. The champion receives an invitation to play in the 2010 Fantasy Guru 37 Fantasy Football Expert Challenge, the guru's own expert league. Slots in the league are filling quickly, as champions of prior challenges have accepted their positions. Be sure to check back early and often for the next Trivia Challenge, as you too can earn a slot in the prestigious league.

Without further ado, the guru would like to welcome Auz to the 2010 FG37FFEC. Auz was the first of multiple contestants to successfully identify Kordell Stewart as the mystery man. In addition to his trivia success, Auz was also named Gatorade Player of the Week for his performance at the Penn State Advanced High School Hockey Camp, where he captained the Blue Bandits to a 3-0-1 record. Auz has requested an opportunity to recognize his roommate, to whom he attributes his success. Congratulations, from the guru, and unofficially from Kordell Stewart himself.

Trivia Challenge

You are all well aware of the guru's very own fantasy football expert league. In this league, the guru competes against some of the best fantasy managers in the world. Participation is by invitation only. Don't be discouraged because you too can qualify for admission to the league.

The next slot up for grabs will be filled by the winner of the Trivia Challenge. The guru will give several hints about the identity of a certain player, coach, or a well-known sports enthusiast of a different vocation. More and more clues will be given as the competition goes on. The first contestant to successfully identify the mystery man (or woman) will be invited into the expert league.

To enter, simply send an email to the guru at FANTASYguru37@gmail.com with your guess. There will be a limit of one entry per email address per day, so choose wisely. If you are unable to identify the mystery man at first, be sure to check back later for more clues.

Clue #1

Selected in the second round of the 1995 NFL Draft, this player started more than 75 games over the course of his career.

Clue #2

The player was once named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for his punting prowess.

Clue #3

This versatile player's career totals eclipse both 1,000 rushing yards and 300 receiving yards, but you won't confuse him with a paint supply store.

Think you know he is? Take a shot and send an email to FANTASYguru37@gmail.com. If not, check back soon for more hints. Good luck to all contestants.
