Week 11 or “I don’t blog about everything. I only blog about magic…and sometimes FFL”-CeilingCats

Time is running out quickly on this season. The Commish is flailing away at Commish-ing as much as FFL-ing. Nizzle02 apparently sold his soul (if he even has one) to the Devil for Wins. LGB, already sold his soul, is hot on his heals. LO is still not in last, mainly because AintReba has it locked up. Vina-Mites is relaxing on his California King mattress sipping on some Rose. Pigg is making a run for the playoffs, for the first time since the league began. TBIAC is back to fantasy relevance after a few down seasons. Big Diesel is flying along at 6-5 and feeling good, while the Cats are just sad, so sad. On to the recap…

CeilingCats 129 LGB 102

TBIAC 78 AintReba 59

Big Diesle 124 LO 115

Pigg 103 DFUN 93

Nizzle02 104 Vina-Mites 87

Sooooo, off to week 12. Everyone needs wins, time is running out. Make some moves, get healthy and be glad the bye weeks are over. Good luck to all, let’s play some FFL Football!

Week 10 or “”I’m sick and tired of carrying all the weight… the coaches and owners not giving me the sh*t I need to win.” – Kenny Powers

Week 10 is over and we are one game closer to Playoff season, or Sacko Bowl for 6 unfortunate teams. Injuries and bye weeks are still big players on everyone’s roster, and the waiver wire is reeeeaaallll thin. This week we will take a quick look at the overall numbers so far and see who’s good, bad, lucky and who drew the wrath of the FFL gods this season (hint…. Meow). Let’s get to the week 10 recap!

Kupp gave Nizz the W, but left the game on IR. Jacobs, surprisingly, still hasn’t disappeared, ran for 15. Carr was Carr, 14 and DAdams 12. Pigg just didn’t have much this week. 14 from Cousins, JJeff 11 and no one else in double digits. Nizzle02’s luck remains intact another week.

Welllll, not really. BD 95-89 victory over DFUN. Mahomie blew up with 25, and Kamara 13. The rest of the team just sat on the sideline and watched DFUN try to break 90 points. JTaylor finally ran the ball, 13, CeeDee only 9, Foreman 11 and Kelce, as always, 14. Before the special teams entered the game the score was 80-80. But then the special teams entered the game and Big Diesel kicked and tackled 14, while the Commish stumbled and missed with only 8. Ball game!

In a case of good game, wrong week, the Cats went down to the West Coast Wonder 106-96. The Goat tossed 18, Etienne 16, Williams 11 and in Deebo’s return, 10. DAL Def got run over, literally, by GB and only scored 2. VM got 21 from Hurts, 17 from Saquon, 14 tough ones for Dalvin and Damien Pierce rumbled for 14. Add 14 from the special teams and it adds up to another W for the Hollywood Superstar, and another, unlucky, loss for the kittens…

In the best game of the week, LGB went to Greenville Ave to slap fight TBIAC. These two really went at it with their open hands flailing about wildly! Fields ran, occasionally threw, for 20. JimmyG 17. CMC 18, Chubb 14. Walker III and Diggs combined for 25 while the Capt countered with 28 for King Henry and ABrown. This looks like it’s going to be a close one! A Pearce, whoever that is, only caught 5 and Pitts snagged 6. GDavis 8 and Schultz found 5. At flex, Allgeir 5 vs Cooks 6. 82-81. Now it’s time for our favorite part…Special Teams!! LGB put Maher and BUF against York and NO. 8 to 8 at K, 5.93 to 7.74 at Def. Final score LGB 96.5, TBIAC…….. 97 and the W! A half point slap in the face!

In our second Cat fight of the year, LO faced off with AintReba for the title! As expected, these two tiny pugilists came out firing on all cylinders, throwing haymakers and pulling hair! Herbert continued to disappoint LO with 14 while JAllen had a bad game for Reba with only 21. Ekeler 15, Patterson, in the lineup this week, 8 and Tyreek 13. The artist known as Denton’s Red Dirt Diva had Lenny stumble around for 10, DK 8 and DHenderson (can’t believe his guy is even on a team) had a career high with 9. 11 and 14 for the K & Def finished this game up just as it began…..boring. LO rides high (as high as she can) and adds the title of 2022 Queen of the Gridiron to her multiple Sacko Trophy’s! AintReba was last seen staring at her extensive art collection, and wondering where it all went wrong (draft, research, roster churning….)😘

And now, let’s do some Math-lete stuff! No big surprise, Nizzle02 is on top at 9-1 followed by LGB 7-3, LO 6-4 (???), VM TBIAC BD and Pigg all at 5-5. Cats and DFUN 3-7 (WTF is going on this season???) And, as always, AintReba in the gutter, where LO left her last week, 2-8 (who did she beat?). But does wins and losses tell us the whole story? Yes but no. Wins are all that matter, but the FFL Gods are fickle. Some times the off season tributes or indiscretions can come back to you in the season. Nizzle02 clearly burned incense and prayed to Shiva, showered her with gifts and baby elephants. The Cats lost their way, forgetting that FFL is a spiritual endeavor, and mock drafts and FantasyPros can only go so far. Which leads us to POINTS, for and against. Nizzle02 1189.44 at the top, LGB 1130.4, VM 1109.42, LO 1105.4, TBIAC 1080.04, BD 1059.72, Pigg 1048.94, Cats 1046.86, DFUN 933.42 and AintReba 28. Just kidding 902. 04. From the highest scorer to the lowest, a difference of 287.36 points over 10 games is 28.736 points more every week on average for Nizz than AintReba. WOW… Now points against. Cats leading with 1224.4 while Pigg has the low with 956.96. That is a 267.44 difference or 26.7 points a game. WOW… in the case of Pigg and the CeilingCats that difference shows in a 5-5 record vs a 3-7 record. Nizzle02, with the most points scored is 7th in points against. Must be fucking nice! DFUN comes in 2nd in points against (and a 3-7 record) while LO has the second least scored against her (probably because she plays Reba every week🥳) but explains her winning record. Most of our fellow teams fall in the middle of both groups and the record shows it. No real mystery solved here but proof that Shiva can smile on some and stomp on others. That’s it for this week, enjoy the freezing temps (except Vita-Mite’s who is at the beach adding up his State income tax bill) and let’s get ready for week 11 in “This is Serious Bizness”. I’m going to run down to the store and see if there is any incense or bright shiny things left…

Week 9 or “In most of nature, the alpha is the strongest of the pack. Creature of immense strength , large in size, a leader from birth; hippos, bumblebees, the Wayan Brothers- Kenny Powers

Short recap this week, longest title ever. If your looking to waste 3 hours of your life go watch “Wakanda Forever”, if you’ve only got 3 minutes…. Continue reading.

Pigg 144-Cats 98

DFUN 80- AintReba 61

Nizzle02 106- Big Diesel 86

LO 142- TBIAC 63

LGB 115- VinaMites 91

Another week, more losses, more wins, more bye weeks, more injuries. Keep fighting and maybe this year you’ll get a parade like the WNBA CHAMPS!!

Week 8 or “You spend all your time reading books and looking at numbers and letters like they mean something”-Rafi talking to DFUN

Another week of wins and losses, injuries and waiver wire pick ups., winning streaks (Nizzle02) and losing streaks (LO). Our first trade of the year went down with the Cats sending two RBs to LGB for a broken Deebo Samuels. The Cats have a baby Deebo at home so it was completely worth it! Bye weeks are brutal, keep filling out that lineup and let’s get into week 8 in “This is Serious Business”

Baby Deebo

TBIAC took on the Commish in a do or die/ must win battle for…. nothing. The Capt is rolling and DFUN is just prepping for the Sacko Bowl. 148-104, TBIAC takes the W. A great game for DFUN with over a hundred points but he ran into an absolute steamroller. Lamar 21, Chubb 24, King Henry 34, ABrown 33 and 17 from the TEN D was just waaaay to much to overcome. For DFUN, the Red Rocket tossed 17, 12 from Drake, JTaylor continued to be one of the worst number 1 picks of all time, 5, Aiyuk ( in Deebo’s absence) 14, and Foreman with a huuuge 31. This one was all about a good game on a bad week, or another way to put it is, just another crushing loss for the Commish

After a scorching hot start, LO has started her yearly slide into the bowels of FFL hell. LGB exploded with 139 points from Dak 25, CMC 32, Diggs 16 and finally something from Pitts, 14, along with the great Justin Tucker kicking in 17. LO fought back, feebly, with Danny Dimes dropping 9 at QB, 19 from Tyreek, and 22 from Waddle. 10 points from Bass at K and 9 from NE D totaled 98 and a third straight loss for the tiny baller!

In another must win/ do or die game, the Lewisville trash transplant Big Diesel came to Cats stadium in lil D and walked out with a W, 129-96. Cousins wasn’t on prime time TV so he went off for 23, Coop 17, and Kamara FINALLY showed up with 33. The Cats countered with 17, as usual, from TB12, 22 by Etienne, 14 from Stevens and a big fat ZERO from George Pickens. Cats needed that win to continue their delusion of making the winners bracket, while BD kept himself in the race to the top.

The West Coast Vina Mites travelled all the way to the frosty land of Team Pigg in a showdown of playoff wannabe’s. Pigg apparently thought that he was on a bye week and only suited up his “b” team. Burrow 13, Mixon 5, JJeff 9 and Sanders 13. TB D 3 and McPherson 1. VM, having traveled so far in an electric car towing a trailer full of FFL players, stopping to charge the battery every 37 miles, was angry and ready to rumble. Hurts 28, Saquon 12, Dalvin 20 and DHop, finally healthy and off suspension, 21. Not much of a game 119-63, but still a victory for VM. Let’s all pray he can make the return trip to LaLa Land before week 9 starts!

And in the Monday Night FFL Game of the week, Nizzle02 snagged another easy win over the tiny troubadour AintReba, 106-86. Kyler did his homework and it payed off with 24, JJacobs finally returned to normal and stumbled for 5 but AJones rumbled for 15, Kupp only 14 and the steal of the week, Tony Pollard went off for 32. AintReba countered, badly, with JAllen 17, LennyF 11, 21 from DJ Moore, Philly D 16 and nothing from the rest of her roster churned team. This intrepid writer is not a math wiz, but I believe Nizzle02’s team of highly paid FFL ninjas may make the playoffs.

Soooo, week 8 is in the books, week 9 is the next chance to improve your team, your roster and your self worth….or not. Bye weeks are still plaguing us all and the injuries keep mounting. Keep your head up, make some good moves, and pray to the FFL god Shiva to save your season. I know I am.

Week 2 or”They don’t ask how they ask how many” -Shoresy

It was a tough week for some (Cats) glorious for some (Pigg, Laces Out, TBIAC) and a recurring nightmare for others (DFUN, AintReba). It’s still early so a reemergence can happen, injuries will come into play and the waiver wire will be important. But, early on, Laces Out and Pigg are dominating at 2-0 with 244 and 238 points scored. On the bottom is 0-2 DFUN and Cats at 151 and 161. The rest are ready to pounce into the upper echelon if any team falters. Week 2 rap-up begins….

In the first faaaammmmmiiillly fffffuueed of the season Pigg takes on the Commish. 116-54. Pigg reaches 2 wins for the first time in league history (not accurate). DFUN falls to 0-2 for the 28th season in a row (not true). Burrow and Rrrraawwddgggeeerrs were close 14-16. Nixon and Akers were close 8-6. Sanders and Taylor 8-6. J Jefferson 4 Ceedee 8. Shultz 0 Kelce 5. What went wrong for DFUN? A lil something called K and DEF. This is becoming a thing if you haven’t noticed. McPherson 13, and Dfun’s Gay 7 at K. TB Def 34 ( 34 freaking points) and the Commish’s D, MIA….. -4. 38 point swing on the DEF alone. Are the DEF numbers artificially inflated,?you’ll have to ask the Commish and no one else, especially not the Cats who had nothing to do with scoring changes. NOTHING (not accurate).

Laces Out v Big Diesel 138-93. Laces Out is on fire! Herbert 23, Tyreek 31, Waddle 29 ( in an absolutely insane game, too bad she didn’t have Tua too) Bass at K with 12 and 13 from her D, NE. The California Kid countered with 17 from Mahomie, 4 from the soon to be cut Zeke, 10 from UNT’s own Jeff Wilson, 1 from apparent bust JuJu and 11 from CEH (about time he did something). K Succop 10 and another monster Defensive effort from the 9’ers 22. But when Laces Out gets 60 from her teammate Wr’s, your in for a long week.
