NORM'S LINES FORMAT (My Estimates) - Favorite w/Spread on top - Underdog w/Under-Over in parenthesis

  Week 15 finds the leaders running away form the pack (2 games and points on the rest of the pack). So, it is essentially a 3-game lead with 4 games left. On the plus side 8 of 10 teams are within 1 game of a money spot. The BYES are over and the trading deadline has passed, so we are definitely in the homestretch. THE EAGLES did not win ad the Dream Team lost so you know where these Notes are heading (don’t say I did not warn you).

  The old web (http://swffl.50megs.com) has updated archives and historical records. I will also add some web-exclusive. Send any ideas to me and I will see what I can do.

Key Matchups to watch this Week

  The Black & Blue Attack will try to complete the season sweep of the Croatans and try to keep the Takers out in his rear-view mirror. The Dream Team will try to avenge their early season loss to the Black Assassins and hold on to that last money spot. The Roxborough Wranglers will try to complete the sweep of the Jelly Beans and keep a hold on that money spot as well. The Body Shop will try to complete the season sweep of the Fightin’ Irish and keep their slim money hopes alive. The Money Takers will try to complete the season sweep of the Good Fellas and hope for a slip by the Black & Blue Attack.

  Norm (my estimates) was 2 of 5 this week making him 26 of 60 (43%) on the year. He retains top billing. Spock was 2 of 5 making him 34 of 60 (57%). His locks appear below:

BB -27  C (251)     BS -3 FI (249)
DT  -8 MA (276)     MT -4 GF (272)
RW  -6 JB (250)

  No games were decided on Sunday. All 5 had some level of Monday Night Madness (some more than others).

  In the final Black Bowl of the season the Black & Blue Attack completed the season sweep of the Black Assassins as a 69.7 point lead and Hopkins weas too much for the Assassin and Murray on Monday night. The Attack scored their 4th helmet of the year dues in large part to the efforts of Mahomes, Adams, Chase, Godwin, Andrews and Tucker (would have been easier to list the starters that dis not clear 20). The Assassins were led Osborn (picked up this week as a Thielen fill in). There was little help on the bench for the Assassins.

  The Jelly Beans avenged their early season loss to the Good Fellas as Conner, Ertz, Gay and the CARDINALS (that is a lot of CARDINALS) easily overcame a 4 pint lead on Monday night. The Beans were led by Conner and Cook in the victory that moved them out of the basement. The Irish were eld Herbert ion the loss. The best lineup for the Irish would not have kept them out of the basement.

  The Roxborough Wranglers avenged their early season loss to the Good Fellas as Kupp easily overcame an 18.7-point lead on Monday night. He seems to do it every week. The Wranglers were led by Brady, Kupp and Renfrow as they replaced the Good Fellas in 3rd place. The Fellas were led by Jefferson and Lockett, but what really killed them was the early exit of Jackson. The Fellas best lineup would have still booted them out of the Money (basically because their other QB was on a BYE).

  The Croatans avenged their early season loss primarily because of a false positive COVID-19 test on Higbee (Norm get away from my keyboard). Seriously, if Higbee plays maybe he eats int OBJ’s numbers or maybe he makes up the 8.5-point deficit. We will never know. The Croatans and a 28.2-point lead proved to be a tad too much for OBJ and a last second COVID-IR’ed Higbee. The Croatans were eld by last second added Taysom (and his last second heroics) and Evans. Wow 3 last-second mentions in two sentences. My high school English teachers would be disappointed. The Deam Team was led by Rodgers, Fournette and Kamara in the loss. The Dream Team’s best lineup would have had them solidly in 3rd place instead of a very tenuous 4th place (and yes almost made this GOW).

  The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Body Shop and the Money Takers. The Money Takers completed the season sweep of the Body Shop as a 16.3 point lead and Jefferson could not hold off Michel and Prater on Monday night. I’d like to think this one went back and forth, but I am pretty sure the 2 Prater 53-yard FGs sent Coach Casey to bed early. He probably missed Jefferson 9 pt. TD that made it close again. The Takers were led by Allen and Prater as they kept pace with the Black 7 Blue. The Shop was led by Harris and the COWBOYS as they slipped to 2 games below .500. A Stafford start changes all of this. That Dak-Stafford decision must be killing Shop HQ every week. I hear Mickey personally made the pick this week in Florida.
