I really enjoy when our standings are a perfect palindrome. I don't love it when my team is 9th of 10, but hey, it's early.
Ah, who am I kidding? As if that makes a difference, right?
Let's do the traditional recaps this week.
B.S. Centurions dismantle Pedro Pickles, 125.5-98
That Mike Williams pick in the 10th round looks like money right now. He's Justin Herbert's favorite target, and an early leader for BS's keeper next year. He's certainly helped overcome Allen Robinson in the 3rd. Williams had 30.5 points on Sunday; Allen Robinson has 18 on the season. Matt Nagy sucks. Pickles partly got got by Nuke playing through a rib injury. And not playing Kareem Hunt.
Hardcore loses CMC, Tidwell, wins over Jeff Fisher Effect, 125-95
You all saw The Commish's apparent jinx powers. Last week's notes reference CMC's point total at the time of the posting, and that's all he got, after an injury. But then JFE's roster just slept through Sunday, while Hardcore's roster was like Alexis to Stevie in Schitt's Creek:
It's tough to win a game when you get 10 total points from your RBs. And Hardcore is loving his 4th round pick of Cooper Kupp. He's the WR1 in all of fantasy right now (just ahead of the aforementioned Mike Williams.
Team Provost softens Iron Ryan, 122.5-107
A week after having a shot at a Tidwell on Monday night and still losing, Provost got right this week. When your skill position guys all put up 15 or more, it's gonna go pretty well for you. And it's also helpful when your kicker sets an NFL record for distance, and destroys the hopes and dreams of Lions fans everywhere. (Relatedly, damn the NFL for not allowing you to embed YouTube clips. Here's a link to the call by Lions radio team: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NM93tx7Tvk)
Utah Falco uses Zeke to punish HRG, 104.5-96
Pretty sure we all enjoy it when we use a player from our opponent's favorite team to beat them in fantasy. Though, come to think of it, it's basically only the Cowboys where that happens; all the other favorite teams in our league barely have any players worth starting. Certainly not the Giants. Anyway, two TDs by Zeke doomed HRG against Falco this week. I'll say Falco did get kinda lucky though: an injury to A.J. Brown caused him to put up a donut, and the Bucs D LOST 3 points...but he still pulled out a win.
Released Dix On Boobies tops DVD, 103.5-88.5
Herbert, Mattison and Cardinals D. That's how Boobies (heh) won. No one else on the roster broke into double digits. Meanwhile, somehow DVD had THREE players over 20 points, and couldn't break 90; partly thanks to the 8 points the Washington D lost him. After Thursday night, it looked like playing Sam Darnold over his keeper Josh Allen was going to be a good move. Then Allen came out and put up the QB1 of the week. Boobies (heh) squeaks out the win.
Tidwell Time
BullSpit Centurions won his first Tidwell of the season. No repeats yet. The longest we've gone without a repeat Tidwell winner to start the season is four weeks (last year, our first repeat winner was in Week 5).
Commish is now off to cry in a corner with an aggressively mediocre team.
