Why the Doormat Division?
The Doormat Division was not created to make fun of teams we don't care about and are bad. It got started because there were 4 of us and all of our favorite teams were the WORST in the league. When we started in 2007 that was the 49ers (0-and-niners), the Raiders (Raydurz), the Lions (the Kittens), and the Rams (Lambs).
So we started the Doormat Division to celebrate the ineptitude of our inglorious teams, complete with a champion, thereby easing our pain. Slightly. The Kittens, as we all know, set the standard in 2008.
We expanded to 6 franchise owners, with 1 team in the NFC and 1 in the AFC. Amazingly, this year seems to be THE YEAR for losing, with a stunning number of teams stumbling their way through the schedule. The competition for the Cellar Crown of Moldy TV room Carpet is steeeep!! (and so are the steps to the basement)
It is possible that there could be a team later in the season with a worse record than one of our chosen teams. They will get honorable mention.
But right now, we GOT 'em, baby!
