Game of the Week

Antonio Brown Poop 127.48 vs Grown Man's Poop 126.86

Antonio's Poop staged a Monday night comeback to escape with a win in the Poop Bowl, and remain one game up in the standings on the very team he beat this week, Grown Man's Poop.  Trailing by 16 heading into Monday Night, AB Poop got 17 points from Diontae Johnson* to seal the victory. This has potential to be a very meaningful win as there are just 5 weeks left in the regular season and these two teams are very comparable in both record and total points scored. Whoever won would be in the 5th spot in the standings which offers more breathing room for the post season than the 6th spot**.

Hot Takes

-Noodle Soup's Debutante Ball*** began with a thrashing of the 2nd place team in the league, and nearly setting a single week record for highest score. Soup is clearly in the group of four teams that are competing for a coveted first round bye, the trick is staying there. Part one of this is winning games like this week against Antonio Brown Poop, a good team who is a 30 point underdog due to bye week issues. 

- Sack . . .50 points . . . I guess this is one way to get your locker room to buy into the whole "nobody believes in us" narrative. 

- The group of teams in contention for the 5th or 6th spot in the playoffs (at least), is pretty large, with the 9th place team within a game of 6th place. I'm not ruling out the 10-12th place teams, but making up 2 games on all the teams in front of them will be fairly impressive.  There are some teams that will make some tough decisions with the November 23rd trade deadline approaching.

- Looking ahead to this week, Prime Time gets his shot at Death Star AF. Yes, AF is going through some things right now with his star QB, but Prime could really make things interesting at the top of the league with a W. 

 

Thats all for this week. Horrible luck to all of you in Week 9.

*Just like we all thought.

**I double checked, and yes, this is true. It is better to be in the 5th spot than the 6th spot.

***I googled 'coming out party' to see if there was something more funny out there to describe the move Noodle Soup is making, and I like this.
