Week 11 Summary - Points Everywhere Again / Harris Still Fading / Close Ones / Not So Lonely At The Top

As always, you can read it online at:

But for those that are too lazy to even click:


There were lots of points to go around this week as the bye weeks have ended and owners seem to have a good feel for who will put up the points. Scoring jumped yet again this week as 8 teams made it into triple digits and all but 2 cleared the 90 pt hurdle. The average rose again to 102.9 pts from last week's 99.7 pts. The average margin of victory stayed healthy, but slipped a bit to 26.8 pts from last week's 28.4 pts as we had 3 close ones and 3 matches decided by more than 40 pts. Which is a lot.

Performer of The Week:

Devin Mackesy, 136.2 pts. Where did that come from? Rodgers' 43.2 certainly helped.

Honourable mentions to Ashby (125.9) and Madge (120.9).


Senorita Of The Week:

Kevin Andrachuk, 69.9 points. Not horrible, but low enough to score you the purse and matching heels. And a 56 point shellacking at the hands of Ashby. This just in from Kevin's PR department:

Please note that Mr. Andrachuk's first and only real love is Basketball. He is devoting all his energies to managing his fantasy team in that sport. Due to his fantasy football team's players' inability to execute to the level that Mr. Andrachuk demands, he has little time to even answer emails from those related to fantasy football.


The "Close-But-No-Cigar" Match (es) of The Week:

Three close ones this week as Eric/Pat/Sunny clipped my bunch of bed-crappers by 9.7, and Hauser took Mike D. a little too lightly and was beaten by 1.3 pts (P.S. Parade for Mike D's victory in Little Italy on Thursday - Sangwiches and Brio for everybody!) and best of the best, Alls clipped Harris by exactly 1 point despite Harris' pleas to the ESPN score keepers for an overnight adjustment. Such behaviour is most unbecoming of a leaders lounge member. His status was never permanent, but you can rest assured that his membership is under review.


The 7-4 Club:

This once sacred space has taken on the charm of an all-you-can-eat Las Vegas buffet. Membership has swelled to an uncomfortable count of 5. Eric/Pat/Sunny - you'll only be allowed in one at a time. Ashby, we've arranged for a Hello Kitty Litter box for you in the corner, and Madge will be required to cuddle/rear-naked choke with Harris due to space considerations. I have locked myself in the spacious and luxuriously appointed liquor locker and hope to wait out these barbarians that have somehow found their way far beyond my gate.


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

Harris could have used Lee Evans' 7 points, as you may recall, he lost by just 1 point.

Hauser could have used Holmes' 25 or even Woodhead's 14, as he also lost by just a little bit (1.3 points in this case).

State of The League:

Just 4 spots for 5 teams at 7-4: Eric/Pat/Sunny, Ashby, Madge, Harris and Fusco. I hear they're thinking of making an "It gets better" video. High stakes musical chairs.

On the outside, looking in at 6-5: Jeff and Gregor. Puncher's chance.

Talking fantasy basketball trades at 5-6: Lance and Kevin. See you next year.

Fodder for the weekly summary at 3-8: Mike D., Hauser, and Devo.
