History of the WarZone Fantasy Football League
The WarZone Fantasy Football League was created in 1999 by Steve Brooks. This was the second league that Mr. Brooks created. The first league that Mr. Brooks created was the GPFFL (Greater Pittsburgh Fantasy Football League). The GPFFL was created in 1995. Both the WarZone and GPFFL coexisted for 3 years from 1999 to 2001. In 2002 the best owners from the two leagues were combined to form what is now the best fantasy league on the planet, The WarZone!
History of the Brooksman Trophy
The Brooksman Memorial Trophy Award (usually known colloquially as the Brooksman Trophy or the Brooksman), is awarded annually to the team deemed the most outstanding in the WarZone. It was created in 1999 as the Shelbourne Drive Athletic Club Trophy and it was renamed a day later following the death of one of the commish’s brain cells!
