Leonard's League 16/17 - Week Six

Victorious Secret fell to The Legend 65.26 to 107.02.  Victorious had a rough week, Roethlisberger went down with a knee injury and only scored 7.56.  Eddie Lacey went down with an ankle injury that will have him out for at least a week. Arian Foster is still dealing with a hamstring injury and he only brought in 1.50 points.  It's really a self-inflicted wound, Victorious, stop hurting yourself!  The Legend had a couple of outstanding players this week LeSean McCoy, 3 TDs and 140 rushing yards (32.20 points), David Johnson, 3TDs and 111 rushing yards (31.80 points).  It was Johnson's second week in a row scoring over 30.  That's just impressive.  Super human.  Maybe even angelic?


A low scoring showdown between In Your Endo and Mocha's Maniacs went to Mocha 84.00 to 89.20.  This could have been a totally different game if both teams had used their bench properly.  In Your Endo started Russell Wilson, and as much as we love him (Go Hawks!!), he wasn't a fantasy rock star this week, he only tallied 10.50 points.  But Endo's benched QB Marcus Mariota threw 3 TDs and scored 25.76 points, that could have been a win.  If Mocha had started Chris Thompson (10.0) instead of Sammie Coates (goose egg) who was out with a thumb injury she would have kept the lead and took home the win.  Let this be a lesson to us all - don't leave the wrong player on the bench!


Bobbum Man is back in first.  He got there by putting The Demogorgon down for her 6th straight loss of the season (97.62 to 105.96).  6th.  Straight. Loss.  This week the Demogorgon picked up Randall Cobb on waivers but forgot to put him in, if she had, she would have won.  It is a little easier to lose to the top ranked team though.  Bobbum Man has been kicking ass - Lamar Miller brought him 29.80 points and Brandon Cooks scored 23.50 points, a combined 3 TDs between them.  With those kind of numbers it didn't even matter that Bobbum started Jordan Reed who is out on concussion protocol.  Did I say easier?  Yeah...congratulations Bobbum Man on a job well done...come have a beer in my cellar.


Your Wife My Kids claimed second place in the standings by beating Rozzie Square 94.78 to 79.48.  YWMK had a solid game, Andrew Luck completed 253 passing yards including 1 TD for 20.38 points.  Johnathan Stewart came back from his injury and brought YWMK 2 TDs and 20.50 points.  Not too bad, although for both teams, this was a game about missed opportunities.  For YWMK Allen Robinson only caught 3/6 and for Rozzie Square T.Y. Hilton was targeted 9 times but only caught 3.  Rozzie's biggest missed opportunity was starting Mike Evans, who was on a bye. Those byes are a real bitch.


In another low scoring match up I'll Drink to That fell to the EBDB BnB 71.14 to 77.58.  IDtT has the Seahawks D, and naturally, they kicked ass, 21 points from 4 sacks and an interception, but it just wasn't enough.  It's not a good week when the second high scorer from a match is the defense.  IDtT started James Starks who was out following knee surgery, but EBDB BnB started Theo Riddick who was out with an ankle injury - net zero.  As much as I hate to say it the best performer of this matchup was Cam Newton for EBDB BnB - before he got a concussion and threw a hissy fit at the press conference, Newton racked up 24.98 points.  Not much to get excited about here, neither team crested 80 points, but since this was a marriage matchup, I'm glad to see they're still talking to each other!


Wait.  EBDB...you gotta work on your lines man...

The Kiegl Titans were this week's high scorer with 111.44.  The Titans have Tom Brady (3TDs and completed 376 yards); and Spencer Ware (131 rushing yards and a TD) to thank for that.  The Titans just picked up Ware this week, an excellent move, wanna trade?  The Vinegar Strokes only manged a total of 77.10 points, even with Christine Michael's 2TDs.  Michael, with 20.30 points was Vinegar's high scorer, next down was Jimmy Graham's 8.90 points.  That's a big jump.  Pssst...Vinegar...during football season you need more than one player score more than 9 points to get a win.  Wanna know another seasonal secret? 


Next week is Halloween - can't wait to see all your costumes!! Happy Football!
