Week 7 - Sunday in Review

WatchBlog here.  1 game is officially final, 2 are un-officially final, and 2 are "absent a miracle," final.  We'll leave the miracle games for later.  Let's get to it.

More of the same

After last week's shake up at the top of the standings, MotherBoy had a chance to reassert itself as one of the league favorites.  It would have to do so against a "hot" Hottez team who was riding a 2 game winning streak, and fighting for a playoff spot.  Ok, maybe "fighting" was too strong a word, as the Hottez indifference reappeared in week 7, and 3 BYE players were Hottez starters.  Lauren "Huh, Aunt Cindy didn't text me this week - I'm sure it has nothing to do with us being tied in the standings..." Cook reportedly attended a Mavs game Wednesday night, perhaps looking to add a new sport to her management portfolio, or perhaps just checking out some tall bodiez.  Whatever the reason, it apparently distracted her from fielding a complete roster.  Gary "I beat my daughter - regularly" Cook has reclaimed first place in the 3CBCD, and will hope to hold on to it next week in a face off with the dangerous, but disappointing Left Fielders.

And still more...

Speaking of 1st place in the 3CBCD, the Honey Badger held it for exactly 1 week.  Perhaps the pressure of being on top was just too much, or perhaps it was the hellacious BYE week schedule that was too much to overcome.  Apparently the Badger thought so, as he didn't even bother to replace any of the 4 players that were facing a BYE.  The result was a CFFFL record low point output of 16.5 points, and the Badger's first loss since week 1.  Andrew "you assume I thought about it at all - have you forgotten my slogan?" Cook's embarrassing loss was handed to him by the woeful 47ers, who were delighted to receive a gift-wrapped win, being that it was only their 2nd of the season.  Jerry "Chris Johnson - you're just messing with me now, aren't you" pulled off one of a number of trades that the CFFFL saw in the past week, in an effort to replace his inconsistent RB Chris Johnson - who immediately responded by putting up 31.8 points from the 47ers bench - nearly double the total points put up by the Badger's entire team - ouch - that's got to hurt both teams...

And now for something completely different...

The Quail Hunters had started the season with what appeared to be a Title Hangover.  Recently though, they had turned the ship around, and were actually winning a few games.  Norman "TE Fred Davis is out for the year - when I make my roster moves I will cut him, and NOT Wes Welker - I promise" Cook's Cow Pokes, who finished at the opposite end from the Hunters, had been competitive all season, and had already beaten the defending Champs in week 2.  In the rematch game, and the only week 7 game that was even competitive, the Hunters pulled even in the season series with the Pokes, and in so doing, pulled into 4th place in the CFFFL.  Amanda "If they strip the title from me, I'm still keeping the T-shirt" Cook appears to be making another late run at the title, and has a chance to continue that run next week against the 47ers.  Of course if they happen to "forget" to replace their BYE week players, that wouldn't be suspicious at all...

Midseason report card is in the works.  Stay tuned for that and Monday in Review.  WatchBlog out.
