The Browns took a trip across the pond and looked just as shitty as they do on American soil. They also continued their clowny antics by letting a coveted QB that was acquired for a single 2nd round pick when they have 100 picks next draft to offer slip by. To complete the trifecta, they may or may not have tried to get AJ McCarron for even more than what the coveted QB was acquired for for some reason and may or may not have almost had him but didn’t phone it into the league…whether it’s real or not, who cares…the Browns beat.
Anyway, our October winner of highest single game DEF was Dirt Mane as the Ravens dropped 32 points last Thursday night. Mike Dilger has been burned with prizes that were passed over to his “friends” to give to him in the past, so to play it safe this year he declared he just wanted a safe direct deposit into his account via Venmo. Dirty Dilger’s officially playing this season on a $30 buy-in instead of the $55 the rest of us have paid. He tooker.
Now that All Saints Day is behind us, we can outline the November contest. With the cooperative example the Pilgrims & Natives gave us a few hundred years ago, this one is also about a team up within your roster. Specifically, it’s the team up of your starting QB and starting K.
The highest single game sum of QB+K between tonight and Monday 11/27 will win the November contest. The Pilgrims and Indians were truly masters of karate & friendship for everyone (before they started butchering each other and giving each other diseases etc).
Good luck teams. If you’re interested in a non-scientific probability of whether or not you will win this contest, a polite fellow owner cranked out a Power Rankings for it:
1) LOR 2) BIW 3)C. McDoons 4) Team Punisher 5) Funky engine 6) Replacements 7) Golden Boy 8) Chuck Deal 9) Derpers 10) Stand Ground 11) Daws Boot 12) Poo Punch 13) K of Cle 14) LM G’s 15) Dirt Mane 16) 954 could move up dependig on J wins injury status 17)Leon wash 18) norah 19) off the team 20) brick tam
Hey, if you don’t like that, go to Russia.
As we know, November is the crucial month for PLAYOFF?!?! positioning. In order to make one final push for the postseason, please note that 11/11 is the trade deadline.
*******START ROBUST WHIRLWIND UPDATE REMINDER*******
The QB insurance rule applies for injured starting QBs and FFBMCO teams that only have 1 QB rostered and is in effect the entire season (not just gamedays). By now we have heard that Deshaun Watson may have tore his ACL around 5:00 today. The owner of Watson put in his league claim at 5:11 and we saw that Watson’s backup was picked up by a team shortly after 5:00 when the news broke. There is no harm in trying, but as long as the injured 1 QB FFBMCO owner contacts the league within 24 hrs, the league will always roster that backup on said team even if manual roster manipulations have to take place. The player the other team dropped for Savage has been returned to him, so all is set again. If someone else tries to get Savage, just know that your effort will be for naught and you will get flipped back to the status quo courtesy of our hunky commissioning trio.
*******END ROBUST WHIRLWIND UPDATE REMINDER*******
Last week our points pile-onner was none other than Team Punisher who dumped 160.38 on FunkyEngineThatCould.
Then we had a low of 44.7 squeaked out by original champion Brick Tamland in their matchup vs Lord of the Reamed.
Alot of points by Pun and a meager handful from Ol Bob. Halloween Hootenanny!
FFBMCO Headquarters sincerely hopes you had a tremendous Halloween filled with an unproportional ratio of treats to tricks.
