THE COMPETITORS

Five men. One farm. Documented here for posterity, bragging rights, and future use as evidence.

Kevin
🏆 2025 Champion
Kevin
"Mev"
The Elder Statesman · Defending Champion · Target Executive
2026 Title Odds+220
Power Rank: #2

The reigning Farm Decathlon champion with four individual event wins and a tiebreaker victory over Seyer that he will still be talking about at his own retirement party. Kevin is the group's elder statesman — a slightly-above-average former high school baseball player who "claims" club baseball at Wake Forest, though eyewitnesses report his attendance was, at best, weather-dependent. He is a runner when healthy, dangerous in anything baseball-adjacent, and won 2025 partly because the chaos events broke his way at critical moments. He will remind you of this. Constantly. At volume. In person and via text.

"There's winning a championship, and then there's winning a championship on the farm of the guy who finished second. Kevin did the latter. That takes a special kind of mental fortitude — or shamelessness. The evidence supports both interpretations."— Farm Decathlon Scouting Report

"SE-YE-R"

2026 Title Odds+175
Power Rank: #1

Chris Seyer owns the farm. He hosts the event. He was a nationally-ranked racquetball player in high school and a varsity cheerleader at Wake Forest. He runs Seyer Industries, is perpetually acquiring land throughout Cadet, collects vintage concert posters, has ongoing legal correspondence with an attorney named Mr. Finger, gives stock tips with zero attached disclaimers, and has what the Commissioner describes as "mild prepper energy trending toward moderate." Father of four boys. The most complete athlete in this field. Finished second in 2025. On his own farm. Via tiebreaker. He has not stopped thinking about this. We know because he has told us.

"This is a man who had every home field advantage available — the farm, the lake, the fish, the field — and still watched Kevin walk off with the belt. That kind of loss doesn't fade. It compounds. The 2026 version of Seyer is different."— Cadet Correspondent

Lost his own farm's championship via tiebreaker. Still happening inside his head.

Known For

A vintage concert poster collection that is genuinely, legitimately impressive on its own merits
Ongoing legal interactions with Mr. Finger, an attorney — the details remain classified but the energy is clear
Stock tips delivered with complete conviction and a complete absence of disclaimers or follow-up accountability
Hosting the Farm Decathlon, winning two individual events, finishing runner-up, and losing via tiebreaker — all on his own property

2026 Title Odds+290
Power Rank: #4

Graham is 5'10", approximately 150 lbs, claims an ocular disability that appears only to activate in events where he is expected to perform, and carries a pocket full of change at all times for reasons that have never been satisfactorily explained. Father to Leo, whose fashion sense surpasses that of every adult in this competition by a documented margin. In 2025, Graham won the Wiffle HR Derby and produced the certified upset of the entire event by winning Punt, Pass, Kick — his hidden football mechanics materializing from nowhere at the precise moment Kevin needed the lead. He has since built a spreadsheet. A 14-page cornhole analysis document. And an optimal Yahtzee strategy framework. The spreadsheet is about you.

"Graham beat Kevin in the baseball event. Graham beat the entire field in the football event. Graham then lost the Cornhole final to Kevin by a margin that he has since described, to no one in particular, as 'correctable.' The spreadsheet has a dedicated tab."— Farm Decathlon Analytics Division

Biggest Trash Talker
Brett
"Dr. B"
Paducah Socialite · ER Doctor · Country Club Chaos Agent
2026 Title Odds+950
Power Rank: #5

Paducah's finest ER physician and the loudest man at every event he has ever attended — including, reportedly, his daughters' gymnastics meets, the local stay-at-home wives' tennis circuit, and a fishing hole where the documented strategy involves bourbon and waiting for fish to make poor decisions. Brett is genuinely excellent under actual clinical pressure (the ER training is real), delusionally confident in competitive settings, and somewhere between six and twelve cats deep depending on the season. He recently lost a bird named Bird. He named the bird Bird. This detail is not editorially irrelevant. He produced zero wins in 2025 and has not acknowledged this fact directly, preferring to discuss what the historical record should have said instead of what it says.

"Brett is the most entertaining competitor in the field and the least likely to win it. He will have the best time losing, loudly claim he was robbed, and deliver the grievance fresh every time you see him for the next calendar year. The 2025 pickleball complaint is currently in its second year of active circulation."— Cadet Correspondent

Actively Seething99/100

Lost to McGilvery in 2025. Has been "not training" since November.

Known For
Being an ER doctor with documented pressure tolerance and somehow finishing winless in 2025 — the gap between professional and recreational performance is remarkable
Fishing strategy: bourbon-based, patience-dependent, fish-entirely-optional
Claiming publicly that he was the best on the field in 2025 while the official record shows zero wins — he has not reconciled these positions
His late bird, Bird, who he named Bird, a decision that tells you precisely the kind of commitment to expectation he brings to this competition

Sleeper Pick
Brian
"McGiva"
The Silent Assassin · Boston Native · Remembers Everything
2026 Title Odds+240
Power Rank: #3

Boston born and raised. Wake Forest educated. Boston returned. Brian McGilvery is the most quietly dangerous competitor in this field — a caddy by upbringing, an observer by nature, and a man who won the 2025 Pickleball championship without making a single notable noise about it before or after. He nearly beat Kevin in Yahtzee overtime in the very first event. He has not mentioned this. He has not forgotten it. He grew up caddying, which means he reads courses, reads situations, and executes quietly while everyone else is still explaining their strategy to the group. He invented "car knee" to secure permanent shotgun seating privileges on group trips. He is connected to an unresolved Boston jewels situation. His THC gummy selection is, by multiple independent accounts, impeccable.

"McGilvery's silence is not a personality trait. It is information denial. Every statement Brett makes is bulletin board material. Every plan Graham announces is preparation time for McGilvery. His silence costs him nothing and earns him everything."— Farm Decathlon Analytics Division

Yahtzee OT Grudge
Never Forgotten100/100

Lost to Kevin in overtime. Has said nothing about it. This is the most alarming possible response.

Known For
Never announcing plans and then quietly executing them — this describes every documented interaction with McGilvery across all recorded contexts
Inventing "car knee" — a proprietary chronic condition that permanently secures shotgun seating rights on every group trip, without exception or appeal
An unresolved Boston jewels situation — sources describe it as "ongoing," "significant," and "not something McGilvery discusses"
Growing up caddying — producing a man who reads every course methodically, manages every situation patiently, and wins quietly
A THC gummy selection described by multiple independent sources as "extremely well-curated" and "better than anyone else's at the farm, easily"

Field Superlatives

Most Competitive
Graham "G"

Built a spreadsheet. Has a 14-page cornhole document. It is about you. He is not being metaphorical.

Defending Champion
Kevin "Mev"

4 wins. A tiebreaker. A chair from Target. The man is the champion and has not stopped telling everyone this for twelve straight months.

Biggest Trash Talker
Brett "Dr. B"

47 documented incidents per day. Zero championships. This ratio is unprecedented in Farm Decathlon history, which admittedly has only one year of data.

Sleeper Pick
McGilvery

Says nothing, does everything, forgets nothing. The official 2026 sleeper pick and the Analytics Division is prepared to stand behind this call publicly.

Most Motivated
Chris "SE-YE-R" Seyer

Lost on his own farm, via tiebreaker, to a man who now refers to his own chair as a trophy room. This is the most specifically motivating set of circumstances possible.

Best Son's Fashion Sense
Graham (via Leo)

Graham's son Leo has better fashion sense than every competitor in this field. This is the official record. It is uncontested.
