<p>One thing I would like to point out with this post is that I constructed it knowing how the decision making process to All-EDC goes. Players need to be nominated by their coaches and then the entire league votes on who makes the team. Some coaches take into consideration team record when selecting their choices, whether a team finishes with a lot of wins or a few. Some coaches don't do that at all. It was always my opinion that it is sometimes harder to be the 3rd or 4th best player on a top-finishing team than the best player on a bottom-finishing team (although that's not always the case!). Players being on the 'likely' or 'sleeper' list as opposed to the 'locks' doesn't necessarily mean I think they aren't deserving or are better than some of the 'locks'. The voting, as with any award team, is subjective to how the league sees that player's value.</p>
