Dave Pate joined KSL in 2004 and is one of the only owners to win the first year they joined. Dave has one of the best overall records percentage wise and has only had 2 losing seasons out of 7. Dave is considered one of the most dangerous owners to go up against and his record shows why.
2004 - Championship
Dave joined the league in 2004 and after a rough start to the season, Dave became the clear leader in the points race. Dave ended up having 140 points above his competition at the years end. Dave's win showed that he was going to be a force to be reckoned with.
2005-2007 - Playoff Contention
Dave started off the 2005 Season going 8-0 until he ran into Ryan McCarty in week 9. Ryan had gone 6-2 and was doing quite well that year. After losing to Ryan, Dave went on to beat Blake but lost his following game to Brian who was 5-5 going into week 11. Dave finished out the regular season going 12-2, a record for the 14 game seasons. In the playoffs Dave met the 8th seeded Aaron Hughes. Dave put up his second lowest point total of the season and got knocked out first round. This is a curse for the #1 seeds that plagues everyone to this day. Dave ended up finishing the playoffs in 6th place.
2006 was another good year for Dave. Despite starting 2-5 on the season, Dave ended up finishing 5-2 in his last 7 games to give him an even 7-7 record for the season. Dave had 2 of his losses decided by fewer than 2 points. Dave got knocked out of the playoffs in week 15 having put up the lowest points that week and losing to Doug who put up the second lowest points that week. Dave went on to finish 6th in the playoffs.
2007 was a tough start for Dave who went 1-4 his first 5 games. He was able to bounce back and 5 of his next 7 to finish 6-7 which was good enough to get him into the playoffs. Once he made it in, Dave was able to get revenge on Doug and Aaron in the first two rounds. However, Dave was unable to beat Mike Smith who ended up winning it that year.
2008,2009 - MFL
Dave had a rocky start to the 2008 season. He went 1-3, similar to how the 2007 season started. However, Dave was able to bounce back and win 4 of his next 5 matchups. Going into the final week of the season Dave was going to play Ty Boardman and Brian was to play Ty Palmer. A win by Dave and loss by Brian would give Dave the divisional title and a first round bye. Dave was able to overcome Boardman and Palmer was able to defeat Brian. Unfortunately, Dave was unable to win a single game in the playoffs and finished 0-3.
Dave had another rough year in 2009 mostly because Ty Palmer was in his division.
