The Cleveland Browns were idle this week and so were 5?! other NFL teams. This caused much panic ‘n havoc in F.F.B.M.C.O. as many owners struggled to fill a starting roster, and 3 of the 4 undefeated teams went down. (Lance Bass voice) BYE Stand Your Ground! (Justin Timberlake voice) Bye Brick Tamland! (White guy with colorful dread locks voice) Bye Leonard Washingtons! And then there was one…
(In sultry other one of the two remaining NSYNC members’ voice) Cheers to Dirt Mane! At 4-0, he truly is the Last of the Mohicans, “Mohicans” here meaning fantasy football team in this league. From being 3rd worst last year to standing as the only perfect team this year, he is an instant odds on favorite for the Comeback Team of the Year award. Dirty Dilg, YA THIRSTY?! On the flip side, more cheers for the 3 squads who ended their winless streaks to open the year. Off the Team, Timmy Derp’s Derpers & Chuck Deal are now officially in the W column.
The first month of the season has ended and with that, cheers to Lord of the Reamed. Adam Danny Tillett’s squad came up big in the last weekend of September with a score of 159.26 to gain the sacred piece of plastic that allow humans to make purchases from amazon.com. He narrowly eclipsed Poo Puncher Unrated’s score of 157.04 which was also dropped this past weekend. What a whirlwind of excitement! Aren’t you glad you paid an extra $5 for that?!
According to science, October follows September. Meaning we get to dress up as tight characters and all have a clean slate for a SPOOOKYYYYYYYY $25 Target gift card! This card will even be Halloween themed and will hopefully come in handy for costume accessories, trick or treat candy, scary movies or the marvelous pumpkin scented Yankee Candles Target carries. The TERRIFYINGGGGGG rules for this month is born from the hatred and awful inaccuracy of Yahoo Fantasy projections. So October’s game will consist of the following:
1. The team who has the biggest discrepancy between Yahoo projected points vs actual points will win the prize.
2. This can swing either way (argh),meaning that winning or losing your matchup has no bearing on the determination of the winner.
Example: The Replacements are projected at 89.5 points the weekend of 10/12. They actually score 110 that week for a discrepancy of 20.5.
That same week, Chuck Deal is projected 77 points. He scores 51 for a discrepancy of 26. Even though Chuck Deal lost his match, he would still be ahead in the October side game.
3. Once again, we all have 4 cracks at this. It will be the biggest solo discrepancy from the 4 NFL weekends in October, starting Thursday 10/2 and ending Monday 10/27, meaning the gory prize should arrive right in time for Halloween!
One month down, 3 to go. Here’s where the league stands:
BYE BYE BYE!
