Week 10 Summary - Our First Tie / Close Ones / Blowout

Read it online here:

or for those that are too lazy to click:

Week 10 brought with it some actively watched scoreboards as matches were close and the tie fairy visited us and blessed Devo and Tim in an unholy union. The old Mike D decided to come back from the dead, Eric/Pat/Sunny showed some life and your beloved commissioner is back on the emotional downslope. Let's get to the summary:

Average score fell some this week to 86.7 points from last week's 93, while the average margin narrowed to just 10.6 points as 4 matches had scores separated by less than 10 points and a fifth match was decided by 12.3 points.

Performer of The Week:

Just two teams were able to make it into triple digits with Eric/Pat/Sunny taking the top spot at 103.9, earning a much needed win and bitch-slapping Mike D. by 37.8 points and reminding him of seasons past. Honourable mention to Jeff Alls and his 101 points.


Senorita Of The Week:

This week's battle for the SOTW was especially close with many contenders, but the title and its requisite shame is bestowed upon Mike D. and his 66.1 points. Dis-honourable mention to Lance and his 66.3 points.

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

As mentioned briefly above, 4 matches were decided by less than 10 points this week. Alls took down Fusco by 9, Madge clipped Lance by 4.3, Gregor squeezed Hauser by 0.3, and Timbo and Devo managed to finish in our league's first tie. This unholy union will bring no joy to our league and require use of another column in the standings chart and really messes up the name of our leaders lounge. It just means more work for our tech department in Mumbai. I hope you are happy, but know that neither of you could be happy with that outcome.


6-3-1 Club:

Devo has once again been left alone in the leaders lounge. It now has a terrible name and a 3 man line-up outside the door waiting to get in. I've also heard that they are watering down the drinks and rarely oiling the leather. For shame.

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

This is a good one this week as Hauser could have swapped almost any position with a bench player and won his match. Sweet irony - or perhaps some other literary device. But, seriously, I can't believe you didn't play the Bears D and their 28 points. A defence, I might add, that your beloved commissioner was forced to drop due to bye week roster management challenges. (Also see Best and Gronkowski for great commissioner roster management examples).

It looks like it is still wide open as nobody has made a sustained run this season. Tight. Very tight.

Happy waiver wire auctioning and don't forget about the Thursday game
