GM of the Year- DIRTeByRDeeZ
DIRTeByRDeeZ- Battling injuries and frustration, the Birds GM unearthed waiver wire gems like Terrell Owens and Joe Horn. But most of all, this award is given for the big trade that netted Daunte Culpepper and Eddie George, thus shoring up the QB and RB positions. Smart plays by the GM helped to turn around a team devasted by injury and bad luck.

Green Team- The Green Team had a great season, buoyed by pickups like Donald Hayes and Tiki Barber who had explosive games when they got on the field for the Green Team. The drafting of Rod Smith in the lower rounds was a coup and the waiver wire additions of Brian Griese and Derrick Alexander were also ingenious. However, the early cuttings of Ricky Watters and Terrell Owens cannot be forgiven and so, the Green Team is only runner up to best GM of the year award.

Ante Up- Deserving of an honorable mention for GM of the Year is Ante Up. Draft day netted Duce Staley and Jimmy Smith who propelled early season victories. But it was when the going got tough that Ante Up started to make some moves. With the loss of Duce and the slow recovery of Fred Taylor, Ante Up brought in Jerome Bettis and Tim Biakabutuka. When Kurt Warner went down, Mark Brunell and Brett Favre were brought it. The quick moves by Ante Up are noteworthy and deserving of recognition.

Chunky Monkeys- Not to give an award to everyone but surely, the best pickup of the year was for Trent Green. A contender for league MVP picked up at mid season? Amazing.

League MVP-
It’s tempting to argue for a player who pulled his team towards the playoffs, such as a Trent Green. Or to vote for a player who suddenly emerged out of nowhere to become a superstar (Charlie Garner, Jeff Garcia, Daunte Culpepper, Rod Smith). It’s easy to argue that without Jeff Garcia or Peyton Manning, Athena Nike and Escaflowne would not have won 4 and 5 games respectively. But they don’t give out the MVP award to losers. The MVP has to be the cornerstone of his franchise, as well as having such a great year that without him, you could not envision his team winning as many games as it did. The league MVP has to play well down the stretch and in the clutch, when his team needed him. That’s some tough criteria to fill. But here we go. The MVP awards.

MVP RUNNER UP #2- Robert Smith. A surprising name emerged as an MVP candidate as I looked across the charts. While Trent Green may have been the leader that pushed the Monkeys to the top, he could not have done it without the legs of Robert Smith. Consider Smith’s numbers the last four weeks as the battle for a playoff bye raged. 23, 22, 30, 21. Those are the type of stud numbers that show Smith produced when his team needed him.

MVP RUNNER UP #1- Edgerrin James. The quintessential running and receiving threat. He gets the nod over all the other running backs for his consistency. Marshall Faulk may be a better player but this year, he got hurt when his team needed him. Edgerrin paced the league with 280 points and was the rock that the Green Team needed to roll to victory after victory.

LEAGUE MVP 2000- In a close race, the award for Most Valuable Player goes to Daunte Culpepper. Second year player. First year starter. He may not be the highest scoring player in the leauge and may not have started a game until inserted onto the Birds roster in WK3 but there is no denying that this young man has been instrumental to any success the Birds have had. One of a handful of players to never dip below double digits all season, Culpepper has exceeded all expectations. He is the league MVP for putting up 29 and 25 points in back to back weeks when wins were needed.
