"Family Collusion" is a podcast about the Pinehurst Fantasy Football League, an 8-man league of five fathers and three young adults started in the Pinehurst NC region sometime in the early 2010s. Season 1 of "Family Collusion" sees us picking up for the 2020 Quarantine Season: hosts Jake Stokes and Haiden Drake are cousins and have both won the league in past years, but neither have taken home the trophy in 3+ seasons. Will youth finally trump age? Will someone without an advanced degree win for the first time in several years? Stay tuned!
We return mid-season in Week 10 for an update on the state of the league, where 9 of 10 teams huddle in the shadows of the waiver wire shelling out FAAB and living in fear of an apex predator named Big TOM. Haiden has a son now!
Some episodes are longer than others, but all episodes are longer than this 8min one. It has a big announcement. We hope things will all be clearer soon.
