FFFRENZY 2024: Season 22 - Week 7 Recap
COMMISH'S NOTE (10/22/2024): How much does a win turn around a season? How about a few loses in a row? Man this game once again proves that anything can happen.
This week we had some completely abysmal scoring. Two teams failed to reach 100, One of which is currently in third place, and only four teams had more that 130 points. I've found that if you can average 140+ points a week, you are going be fine. And as we pass the half-way point of the season, it's not how hot you start out of the gates, but getting hot at the end. Unless you go undefeated...
We have a new overall high score! Congratulations to JAR Machine on picking up their second high score of the season, and breaking the 200-point ceiling to take the overall highest score. I have a feeling someone else will break 200 at some point. Let's see.
Week 7 was Rivalry Week, something you probably didn't notice on your phone app. (The website app provides a lot more detail, like Rivalry Week, Dues, and a lot more player details.) In the main matchup, we had 1st place Pelican vs. basement team channel surfers, with the surfers stepping to the stage in grand fashion! The second highest score fo the week was used to take out Pelican and hand them their second losss of the season. Pelcian remains in 1st, and surfers are >this close< to exiting the basement.
Rivalry matchup #2 was between two "putos" (their word, not mine) Howling WOOOlf and Tiuana Jets. With only one team showing up WOOOlf totally spanked the JETS, who came into battle and put up the lowest score of the week. AND YET Jets still sit in 3rd place, while WOOOOlf moved into second.
Rivalry matchup #3 was the Battle of the Brothers. BLITZ vs Juice. Both teams underperfomed, but it's Juice who takes the "W." BLITZ and Juice sit near the bottom of the top 8.
Rivalry matchup #4 was a family affair between Uncle and Nephew! Thanks to a timely injury (the first NFL injury that actually helped the Mofos?), Nephew SMASH fell to uncle Mofos. SMASH and Mofos remain in the basement, but Mofos used the win to escape the cellar.
The final two mathcups in Rivalry Week don't have storylines behind them, but they were big ones: JAR Machine completley demolished Uncle Rico, and TITTY TWISTER came up short against JESTERS in a pathetic display of fantasy scoring.
In the Bad Beat Board, Juice will continue to hold this Bad Beat prize for now, and TWISTERS close loss to JESTERS moved them into the 2nd slot. No prize for second here, just the humiliation of coming so close.
Player of the Week: Lamar Jackson (Pelican) 45.44 pts.
Bench Player of the Week: Rachaad White (Uncle Rico) 29.10 pts.
Dud Player of the Week: Dak Prescott (Uncle Rico) 5.22 pts
League dues: Thank everyone for sending me whatever you have sent. Some still haven't sent me anything. Just sayin'. This year's League Fee is $350. I take Venmo (Chris-Allen-390), Zelle (951-850-3477) or the old fashioned mailed check or money order. Better to invest in a dream season than pay up for a shitter. I'm sure glad I already paid.
REMINDER: Open House this Sunday at my house. Doors open at 10:00 am and close after the SNF game. I'll provide BBQ beef sandwiches. Come stop by anytime and stay for any time.
