From the eponymous Anthony Bosko, a hapless fantasy football player who - literally - always has a reason why he didn't complete his punishment for coming in last in his fantasy football league.

Player 1: Tony is going to lose again this year. Did he ever do a stand-up routine in a dress for losing last year?

Player 2: Tony is going to Bosko that punishment. He told me it was impossible because Trump lost the election.

Player 1: But . . . he's the commissioner of the league. Where is the integrity?
