The CROATANS defeated the BLACK & BLUE(158.7 - 121.0)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The Croatans carried an 84.2-point lead into Monday night against the Black & Blue Attack, Harrison, Pickens and Ferguson. The Atack Monday nighters performed well but they fell short. The Croatans built up the big lead with nice performances by Jones, Higgins and LaPorta. The Attack was led by Maye Monangai and Harrison in the loss. The Attack had some better options on the bench, but they would not have flipped the script. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 9:
The ROXB WRANGLERS defeated the BODY SHOP(117.0 - 115.0)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The closest game and in most weeks, this would have been Game of the Week was between the Roxborough Wranglers and the defending champion Body Shop. The Wranglers and Prescott overcame a 10.7-point lead by The Shop and Aubrey on Monday night. It truly appeared that the fantasy gods were inflicting their wrath on the Shop. Aubrey missed FG opportunities because of coaching decisions and fumbles in makable FG territory. They also teased the Shop by keeping Dak oof the board for much of the game. Per haps the lowest blow was the wide left attempt to tie the newly minted longest FG record. The Wranglers were led by Adams in the victory. The Shop was led by Dart in the loss that could have been avoided if the Shop starts Pierce or Doubs over Olave. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 9:
The B ASSASSINS defeated the JELLY BEANS(199.5 - 99.5)
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The Black Assassins, McBride and a 99.5-point lead were way too much for the Jelly Beans, Knight and Williams on Monday night. The Assassins were led by London, Moore, Bowers (welcome back) and an MVP performance by Caleb. The Beans got a nice performance out of Goff as they failed to reach triple digits. The Beans were hit hard by the BYE and injuries, so their bench had a lot of goose eggs. The 2 players that did have points on the bench were better options than the starters but they would have fell well short of changing the “L” into a “W”. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 9:
The DREAM TEAM defeated the GOOD FELLAS(134.5 - 128.5)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Dream Tean and and the Good Fellas. GOW decision – it was not the closest game (still in single digits) but it was the only game between the top 2 teams in the standings. The Dream Team and a 17-point lead just barely held off the Fellas and Ryland on Monday night. IN our scoring system all it would have taken was a 52-yard FG and there was a point where the CARDS had a 4th down in 50+-yard FG range. The CARDS optioned to go for it on 4th down and failed. Fortunately, the next time they got the ball it was kneeling time. The Dream Team was led by Run CMC and Pittman in the battle for the top spot. The Fellas were led by Allen, Smith-Njigba and Kincaid in the loss. The Fellas had better options on the bench and they would have put the Fellas back in 1st place. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 9:
The M. TAKERS defeated the FIGHTIN' IRISH(188.0 - 123.0)
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The Money Takers had the W in the bag and still had Lamb playing in Monday night against the Fightin’ Irish. The Takers were led by Action Jackson (welcome back), Dawdle and Nacua (welcome back) and Loveland (welcome to the NFL rookie). The Irish were led by Stafford in the loss and although they did have a couple of better options on the bench, they would have changed the outcome. Pre-Game Hype:
