Welcome back to This is Serious Business! A big season ahead for us all, and this time the commish actually collected money, so that’s different😂. Also something really different has already happened, EVERYONE was at the draft ready to build their next dynasty. The Yankee baller Pigg was not physically there but that was more due to passport issues and less foosball issues. 7 teams snuck past the security at the Oak Mont Country Club and raided the opulent mansion of Big Diesel (the wife is loaded) and went to FFL work. 33 second average pick time was AMAZING!! Great work Coaches! We could talk more, but as stated, everyone was there. This brings us to Week 1.
Week 1, the usual jitters, uncertainty (LO), bravado (AintReba) and joy of the beginning of 18 weeks of pure FFL has dropped. Lots of roster questions and spots to fill, injuries to happen, breakouts to breakout and others to fail. The journey lays before us and the evil reign of DFUN starts his first, only and last Championship Tour. Let’s see if maybe we can break a record and have two recorded trades this season, huh, maybe? The entire season lays ahead, remember it is a marathon not a sprint so stretch those hammies well and put on that cool headband (Nizz swears by his LuluLemon yoga pants) and let’s get to the recap!
DFUN v Big D
In a playoff rematch, these two heavy hitters came out swinging! Josh Allen led the way in another amazing game, 38pts. The Commish counter punched with Wilson and Lamb (minus all 3 drops) combined 40. The Cali boy showed some SF love and picked up Deebo, not this writers tiny kitten but the football player, and Deebo rewarded his loyalty with 22. Both teams had huuuuge DEF games, Den with 22 and SF, shocking, with 15. This slugfest came down to two things, the Commissioner’s TE Bowers, who continues to dominate the position, 15 points and Big D’s failure at RB. Walker III only 5 and a dissapointing day for Nico, only grabbing 5. Final score 147-128, DFUN continues the miracle run that AintReba dreams about!
AintReba v TBIAC
Seemed like a good game, from the early smack talk, but it wasn’t. Reba’s dynamic duo returned from last season to wreak havoc again, and they did. DHenry 29, and LJack 29. But the veteran ffl’er TBIAC didn’t panic, he just calmly had Mahomie toss 26 and CMC rumble for 23. McBride and Kittle were even at 12, but the Capt’s WR’s outran the country songstress’s team 34-23. Add to that an 9 point swing on special teams and this snorefest was OVER. 110-124. TBIAC moves on, AintReba will be feverishly churning her roster over the next few days. Same results different season!
Nizz v Laces Out
In the beatdown of the week, lil LO came out like an angry dwarf who’d been bowled all last season (she was) and put a tiny foot right on the throat of the Gentleman Farmer. JoeCool was bad but Harrison, TWarren, Puka, Jamir and JJacobs weren’t. Niz tried to keep pace with Kelce and Kamara gaining 25, but JChase was a no show and that’ll wrap up your week real quickly. LO piled on with 24 Special Teams points to Nizz’s 2. One happy little FFL coach, and another sent back to the farm to grow a better squad. 119-92 final
Ceiling Cats v Pigg
The native Texan Cats hosted our Northman Pigg at Denton Teachers Credit Union Stadium for a big time showdown to start the season. It was terrible, and boring. But mostly terrible. Nix was terrible, but JDaniels hit 20 for Pigg. Bijan outpaced Saquon, but AJones got 15 to Jeanty’s 12. JSN had a big 19 over Tee Higgs 6, and CBrown outran Tyreeks 8. 89-89 coming into the all important ST/D. Loop kicked 13 for the kittens, Aubrey crushed 11. Down to the Def…. Ariz planted 7 big ones on the terrible Saints and PIT, well, they got run over. Raaaaaawwwwwwwdddddgggggeeeerrrs tore them up for 4 TDs and a total of 0 points. This guy is still on waivers by the way. He won’t get hurt. Maybe. But back to the total, 109-100. Cats win in the worst game of the week! And Pigg lost the worst game of the week😂😂
The best draft ever is complete, Week 1 is in the books. 4 winners 4 losers, (like every week). Get to churning, researching and trading. Look out for injuries (spoiler- Kittle, Purdy, prob CMC, Ekeler, Worthy) and busts (Caleb, Bryce, and all Cowboys). Hope you all enjoyed the offseason, cause it’s over and we have begun THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS!!!
