The 2005 Lowes Cup Presentation
On Saturday, 2004 Lowes Cup Champion Jay Brown awarded Lee Wadlinger with the Lowes Cup. Lee's 2005 championship team, Chunky Soup, dominated the Lowes Cup league for the entire season, lead by a killer ground attack featuring Priest Holmes/Larry Johnson, Tiki Barber, and Edge James.
Lee would like to personally thank his starting lineup for the dominant Week 17 championship victory: QB Drew Brees, WR Andre Johnson, WR Drew Bennett, RB Larry Johnson, RB Deshaun Foster, TE Antonio Gates, W/R Tiki Barber, K Mike Vanderjagt, and DEF Tampa Bay.
After receiving and inspecting the Cup (which 2003 champion Steve Buck used to hold his extensive collection of matchbooks), Lee decided against carrying out his two year-old promise to eat Chunky Soup out of the Cup. Instead, he's just going to proudly display it high atop his living room bookshelf.
When reached for comment, Wadlinger said, "I still haven't decided what my team name will be next year. I should think of something short, in case they want to charge me by the letter when I get it engraved as the 2006 champion."
