Week one was a battle royale! Here's what happened:
RamzFanz takes Cobra Kai by out scoring his own projected points by 28. Don't let that fool you, Cobra Kai is a scoring powerhouse who left the win on the bench with Moreno scoring 25 points and Hopkins 17. I'm glad I went up against him week 1 when his star studded starters had down games!
Mojo' Mean Machine takes the award for lowest points by a winning team. He left blowout points on the bench, but who starts Palmer over Rodgers or Sproles over Taint? He's going to be juggling injuries next game. DYVKX was bitten early and hard by the injury report. Even a perfect lineup from the bench wouldn't have pulled off the win. I expect we may see his name on the waiver report or trading block shoring up his team for week 2.
LosAngelesRams wins blowout of the week winning by 48 points. How do you do that? Don't leave a single wasted point on the bench! Then add your badass factor by carrying the Rams fans' flag with Sam Bradford on the bench and the lowest rated player in the entire draft, A. Dobson, just for laughs. You know that guy they call the most interesting man in the world? This is what he would have done. RamRasta had plenty of star players starting but they let him down. I wouldn't count on him going under 100 points again this season.
MerlinJoneses cruises to a win with double digit scoring by all of his starters except his Kicker with 8 points. Looks to me like MerlinJoneses isn't going to tolerate a slacker kicker! With another 86 points on the bench, this team will be a challenge every week. Sgt. Rams Dominators didn't live up to their name this week. Stafford was a shocking success with 50 points but his star studded running backs got shut down. It's not a time for the Dominators to panic, it was just a bad week.
Grand RammaJamma left nothing on the bench and soared to the top of the league with an impressive 155 points. He's set the bar for next week! Legatron4 was no slouch at 126 points but he couldn't have won even with a perfect lineup. A few lineup changes would have had him amongst the top scoring teams so he shouldn't be underestimated.
Da Rammer's Ramrod's threatened "I'm going to stomp your as!" in smacktalk and he did just that. Jay Cutler, with 44 points, did no less than expected by those of us who were going to grab him as their late QB star. I'm still pissed Ramrod's snatched him up one spot ahead of me! Ramrod also has the esteemed position of being the only person with a player that had negative points. I hope that stung! Attack Eyebrows wins the Ray Rice "Slapped-A-Bitch" award. I expect to see him on the waiver wires this week unloading the punk. His team was well coached with a perfect starting roster but they were just out played this week. I expect this will be a low score for Eyebrows this season.
Above is the leader board with RamzFanz leading the Bruisers division, Grand RammaJamma surging to the top of the Clowns division, and LosAngelesRams making the Ladies proud with Da Rammer's Ramrod's nipping at his high heels!
This weeks matchups:
Sgt. Rams Dominators have a challenge on their hands with RamzFanz. Will his RBs bounce back or is this going to be panic week?
Mojo' Mean Machine can't count on another opponent laying up for him. Cobra Kia is a star studded team that's sure to put up a fight.
LosAngelesRams looks headed to another blowout of the week award if DYVKX is still riddled with injures and can't find replacements. If DYVKX is healthy, this will be a battle.
Will Da Rammer's Ramrod's threaten his opponent this week and then carry it out? Will RamRasta's sleeping studs wake up? This is one to watch.
MerlinJoneses is a well managed team with a long long list of producers. Will even a perfect lineup be enough to take on Grand RammaJamma? An off week or bad decisions by either team could spell DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM (Doom is properly pronounced with an Arnold Schwarzenegger accent)! This is my MATCHUP OF THE WEEK!
Attack Eyebrows has the makings of a sleeper team but Legatron4 is wide awake with plenty of firepower on the bench. Neither of these teams can make mistakes this week and hope to win.
Congrats to this weeks' winners! Good luck to everyone! Let the smack talk begin!
