Pardon the tardiness, league officials were in a temporary state of mourning. AHEM.
It would be a dishonor to the late Fredo Corleone if we considered the Browns the Fredo of Cleveland sports. Maybe Carlo Rizzi. The other 2 peers give emotional rides in a positive way. One just provides an emotionless activity each week. No quarterbacks got hurt though so progress is being made.
The October winner for rb with most receiving yards is Nick H of 954 Vice City. LeVeon had 245 yards during the contest, 7 more yards than second place David Johnson.
The November contest will be the team that has the most sacks IN A SINGLE GAME during weeks 9 – 10 (concluding with the 11/14 MNF game).
Why not the entire month of November you ask? Well because the prize is a pumpkin pie delivered to your door from Grand Traverse Pie Company, the best mail order pie provider in the nation per countryliving.com (http://www.countryliving.com/food-drinks/g1039/best-mail-order-pies-1110/?slide=3)
You then will have the chance to munch on this tasty treat during Thanksgiving. Merica! Obviously with a game already under our belt, the only team in the running right now is Off the Team with Atlanta’s 3 sacks (Dirt Mane’s Tampa Bay only had 2), but we have the rest of the games and then all of next weeks’ games to see who will get a pumpkin 3.14.
If there is a tie, the tie breaker will be the total fantasy points that defense scored during their high sack week.
After 8 weeks, there are still a lot of divisional battles all over FFBMCO. The teams with the 2 best records clash this week in a battle of former PNC data analysts when 954 Vice City and The Replacements butt heads.
But to quickly highlight/lowlight the past week…
Daws Boot was the week 8 high team dropping 127.72 on The (previously mentioned) Replacements.
Burkhardt Bandits was the week 8 low team, putting “up” 45.90 points but to add insult to injury, they also receive the first steeeeeee-rike of the 2016 season. The controversy swirling Jarvis Landry was started even though Miami was on their bye, and a healthy Adam Thielen was on the bench to be plugged in, but wasn’t. Whether or not this would have mattered in a decision is irrelevant. When you have a healthy player that plays the same position as someone starting who isn’t playing, it’s a strike. FFBMCO has standards to adhere to.
Thank you Cleveland Indians for a delicious 2016 run. In your honor we shall forgo staring at the standings so that we can just reflect on the season and think about what might be this time next year.
