Week 10 - Sunday in Review

WatchBlog here.  3 games are final.  The other 2 aren't really in doubt, but they'll wait til later.  Let's get to it.

Trending
The Left Fielders had only won 1 game in their last 5.  The Honey Badger had only lost 2 games in their last 8.  Despite those trends, the Fielders came into week 10 as a huge favorite over the Badger.  Perhaps that had something to do with the fact that the Badger has totally abandoned ship, and doesn't appear to have the least bit of recognition that he is still involved in managing a fantasy football team.  Including the loss this week, 3 of the 4 Badger losses have come during a BYE week absence on their roster.  Who knows how good their record could be if Andrew "If I was gonna give a care I wouldn't have named my team Honey Badger" actually gave a care.  The beneficiary of the Badger indifference in week 10 was Cindy "If my hair wasn't falling out on its own, this season would make me pull it out" Cook's Fielders, who now return to  a .500 record and have wiggled into a 3-way tie for 4th place.  Perhaps next week will be less stressful when the Fielders play the struggling 47ers - what could be less stressful than Rivalry Week?

Hottness Counting Less These Days
Speaking of struggling, 2 of the worst teams in the CFFFL faced off in week 10, battling for a dwindling glimmer of playoff relevance.  Lauren "Anyone want to bet on whether I voted this past election?  I didn't think so" Cook's Hottez wit da bodiez battled Durlon "Anyone want to bet on whether I played a video game this past weekend?  I didn't think so" Bryant's The Gamers, and The Gamers emerged victorious.  Now, at 4-6, The Gamers still have a realistic shot to claim the last playoff spot, while the Hottez are destined for a sub-.500 record, and an apathetic run through the consolation round.  The upcoming Rivalry Week matchups have the Hottez vs. the Cowpokes, or Granddaughter vs. Granddad, and The Gamers vs. the Quail Hunters, or unrelated guy vs. the girl who used to work for his brother.  It doesn't get anymore intense than that!

Rematch!
The closest game of the day was a rematch of last year's CFFFL Championship.  Cousin Mose & Me lost that Championship to the Quail Hunters last year, and in the regular season rematch, MotherBoy did not fare any better.  The loss dropped Gary "Expect a surprising twist to the end of this CFFFL season, just like any good Hickory Cole story" Cook to a 3-way tie at 5-5, and only 1 game up on 2 other teams vying for the last playoff spot.  Reigning Champ Amanda "The more I win, the more I care, or someone who is controlling my roster cares" Cook has fought back from a 1-3 start, all the way back to a 6-4 record, and a tie for 2nd in the CFFFL.  Besides the Hunters' intense Rivalry Week game, MotherBoy will face off vs. Honey Badger in a battle between father and son, with the 3CBC division lead at stake.  The Badger has zero players on a BYE next week, so MotherBoy will have their hands full fighting for their playoff life.

The exciting conclusion later.  WatchBlog out.
