With only 2025-26 currently on record, DeLorme finished 36th of 251 without leaning on a top-50 result. Hockey led at 51st, baseball followed at 55th, the NFL playoffs placed 58th and March, the NBA and golf all landed at 66th.
That repetition is more revealing than a missing headline. DeLorme built a front-field overall season by keeping most of his cards useful and the worst one, a tie for 180th in Survivor, from becoming fatal. The sport ratings are still snapshots, so it would be premature to call balance a lasting style. On the evidence available, though, he demonstrated the rare ability to contend through accumulation rather than rescue.
