Week 13 Summary - League Office Relocates / Some Big Numbers / 1 Week Left

Week 13 brought nails in coffins for some, abject acceptance for others, quiet confidence for some others, and increased anxiety for others still. This week also brings the long-threatened relocation of the league office from Nairobi, Kenya to Perth Australia. I have a bad flu and crazy jet lag, so this summary may have a falloff from its normally high standards. Let's get through this together, shall we?

Average score increased slightly to 100.8 points from last week's 100.4, while the average margin jumped to 20.2 points as only one game was close this week. 4 Teams put up over 120 points while just one couldn't cear the 70 point hurdle.

Performer of The Week:

With 5 teams in triple digits this week , we were once again spoiled for choice in this category. THis week's face full of glory goes to....ugh...Madge and his 151.2 points. Ugh. He'll be impossible at the Christmas dinner this weekend. Thanks to Allah that I'm many, many thousands of kms away. Honourable mentions to Jeff Alls (135.6), Ashby (127.2), Devo (121.8), and Eric/Pat/Sunny (103).

Senorita Of The Week:

Mike D's streak of despair has ended. James A. Harris, and your 69.9 points take the dirty, dirty cake of SOTW. Brady can't help you anymore...

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

Just one close match this week, Mike D over Kevin A by 2.7. The only good thing that has happened to Kevin this season has been the resolution of the NBA labour dispute. Trust me, had they not resolved it, he would have been on high doses of malbec and white owl cigars. This is not necessarily a bad thing...

9-3-1 Club:

Devo remains ensconced in the warm glow of sole-possession of the lead...but will it remain this way??? Can Ashby tie it up in the last week of the regular season?


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

In and safe - Devo and Ashby. Discuss amongst yourselves.

2.5 Back - 4 for 2 spots - Alls, Mike D (c'mon, really?), Madge (Ugh), and Gregor.

3.5 Back - Hauser, Eric/Pat/Sunny, and Harris - The truth is, I'm too drugged up to do the math. Please submit your own dream scenario of how you could make the playoffs.

The Walking Dead - Kevin, Fusco, Lance - I'm stuck with the basketball fans. At least they have something to look forward too. I, on the other hand, will spend the off-season getting a gun and hunting the most dangerous game of all.

Also, don't forget to vote on how to split up the big $$$ in the poll on the league page.


Commissionarily Yours,

Your Beloved Commissioner
