Week 5 has come and gone. As usual we had some good games, and some bad. But remember that is early on in the season and anything can happen!!!! (Ex. AintReba winning, Sam Darnold undefeated, DFUN not in last) ANYTHING can happen. The ‘Boys won in the last seconds, SF lost to the Cards in the last seconds and Aaron Raaawwwdddggggeeerrsss got his coach fired (rumor). Boston RedSox coming back 0-3 to beat the Yankees is probably the biggest shocker this reporter has ever witnessed. But maybe the Vandy over Alabama? It’s tough to say. But this week we all watched in amazement, wonder and awe at the biggest game of our FFL season. A talentless team, with no direction or management, came together on one given Sunday and played her tiny little heart out. It doesn’t matter if this brave, talentless FFL governor won or lost. It only matters that she tried. It’s all about the ❤️
And if you thought we were not in wonky fantasy football times…..
Playing way up north, in the frozen tundra, Nizzle arrived at CampingWorld.com stadium via private helicopter (rumor is that is was Jerry Jones’s helicopter, they are neighbors-just sayin) and was ready to lay down the 6th worst score this week. And he did! Team Pigg did him one better. 7th worst score. 110-103. A nice coaching move by Nizzle starting Trey Sermom, 18 and the infuriating Pitts, 15. Pigg rallied with 21 from the DEN D. That’s it. But at least he had nothing on the bench. Nizzle, after a five course meal at the Chateau de Riche, flew home to his uptown condo, smoked a celebratory Cuban and fired his entire coaching staff.
TBIAC v Big Diesel. A battle for 2nd place in the playoffs. Two hated rivals who may have never met? Well, they squared up in the swanky confines of Big D, just in sight of Jerry’s helicopter landing pad. These two teams did not disappoint. Knowing they are playing for the first runner up spot in this years playoff, both coaches were ready to go! Mahomey continues to disappoint with 13, also continuing to disappoint is Breece, 6. But Hubbard surprising 17 and Aiyuks surprising 22 and SF Defs surprising 16 put the former west coaster Big Diesel, in the drivers seat. Then he drove straight into a brick wall of FFL greatness! 19 from the rookie Daniel’s, 20 from Swift, 27 by DJM and 23 from the other rookie Bowers. TBIAC showed up ready to fight and in that fight, he won 149-130. Good teams, good game, sure we will see them go at it again!
AintReba’s revenge train came hurtling down the tracks and straight onto Nashville Broadway Street, injuring many Vandy fans who were stilll celebrating their crazy win over Alabama. A little, lowly school with no football history took on the biggest bully on the block. And when the game was over, little ol’ Vandy was tearing down the goalpost and celebrating like a bunch of drunken college students, as they should! Would the lil ol’ Cats do the same? Lots of heart, and injuries versus the unstoppable songstress. Will the goalpost come down? No. 147-117. AintReba wins, again, and Cats lose again. Just another week in TISB! Maybe it’ll happen next week, but it probably won’t.
And in the game no one was waiting to see, winless LO took on the surprisingly winned DFUN. Tickets were free and still no one came to watch. Most fans figured they would wait to watch these two meet up in the Sacko Bowl. But, like Vandy and Bama, things can happen. And it definitely happened this week at DFUN stadium (no one has purchased the naming rights as of now). The Commish slowly walked out of the tunnel, followed by a weary, beat up group of FFL’ers. Dak 16, Jacobs 16, JJeff 15 and Kelce finally stopped looking up in the suites to catch a look at his lover, and actually caught some footballs, 16. And now back to our title “It’s about the heart, not the talent”. LO is absolutely not a talented team. Winless all season, no good players and an aversion to trades. But she is a fighter! She rallied her club of not really lovable losers and played their tiny little hearts out! TLaw 21, Rhamondre 19, London hhhhuuuuuuugggggeeeee 33 and 27 from the Minny D. She even left Mooneys 31 on the bench. 183-84. Almost a 100 point swing. Not sure this veteran reporter has ever seen a beating like this! It was alllll heart….. and a terrible DFUN team.
This is Serious Business FFL
