Week 1 Summary

I don't know about the rest of you, but this Commissioner spent most of the last 4 days staring at Fantasycast as the back and forth between the various match-ups kept me on the edge of my seat as leads changed frequently in almost every contest. You can only be in one of two categories this week - Winner or Loser.

Average score in this new format was 92.2 points. Are you above or below average where it counts???

Average margin of victory was 21.3 points, with the largest margin of victory at 39.7 points (Gregor over the Care Bear Jew), and the smallest contest decided by 11.6 points (The 3-headed monster over Jeff Alls).


Performer of The Week:

The teas leaves warned of this last week, and I am fearful of what we may be witnessing as Jamie Harris' homo-erotic Team Tap Out put up 117.9 points. Fueled by a slow starting, yet ship-righting Tom Brady and his 31.9 points.

Honourable mention to New Guy, MMA fan, and early favourite, Gregor Davidson and his team's 115.8 points.

Senorita Of The Week:

Oh my. We have a new Senorita of Suckitude as Kevin Andrachuk opened wide and sucked it hard this week in not only getting thrashed by me, your beloved commissioner, but also because his "talent" could only muster a mere 64.8 points. Beating Kevin was satisfying, but that his team didn't even compete? A little sad.

1-0 Club:

The Winners - Your Commissioner, Gregor Davidson, Jamie Harris, Eric/Pat/Sunny, Devo, and Hauser.

About the club: it is crowded this year with guests of clearly questionable basis for admission. I'm confident that the coming weeks will separate the wheat from the chaff and this once pristine and hallowed club will return to its exclusive goodness. Until then, I'll be on guard for someone trying to rufie my drink, and we'll keep the good scotch behind the bar.

The Jason Madge Memorial "Why Didn't I Start THAT Guy" Fantasy Player of The Week:

Madge - Flacco, 33.6 - but not enough to beat Harris.
Kevin - Hasselbeck, 29.5 - the difference would have given you the win this week. Ouch.

State of the League:

I think it is fair to say that the action has lived up to the hype. 50% of the league is happy and 50% of the league are losers. I'll take it. I love the head to head format and personally hope that Drew Brees and his 42.5 points gets hit by the team bus before I have to play Eric/Pat/Sunny.
