Leonard's League 16/17 - Week Eight

This week it is a guest post from the amazing Victorious Secret.  Thanks Laura!!

Hello Leonard’s League! It's finally election time, finally!  We also have week 8 is in the books.  It seems as if yesterday I was dreaming of the football season and now it’s at the halfway mark.  As I reflect back, it makes me appreciate the competitive spirit we have shown and the bonds we have formed during each and every game.  I am tickled every time I reach for my phone to check a score, or to see the worthy opponent I’ll be facing in the coming week.  With that said, I have come to the conclusion that we, as a league, are stronger together.  Let’s get to the action and break down week 8 of this wonderful thing we call Leonard’s League.


Victorious Secret was a nasty woman and beat Vinegar Strokes 109.92 to 88.62.  Vinegar Strokes had a strong performance out of QB Carr (4 TDs and 513 yards) but he targeted Secret’s Amari Cooper 15 times for 173 yards and 23.3 points.  Vinegar Strokes couldn’t recover from Ingram’s -1.50. Victorious Secret had another great showing from the Chief’s defense to hold on to the win. Nasty woman indeed.


The Legend and the Demogorgon had a low scoring battle 78 to 62.16.  The legend had some decent performances out of QB Winston (16.8 pts) and Jacquizz Rodgers(13.8pts) but it helps when the Demogorgon played Beckham who was on a bye and Cobb who was out with a hamstring injury. I think someone was already day dreaming about Hawaii.


It was a close race with Your Wife My Kids squeaking past I’ll Drink To That 119.70 to 116.22. I’ll Drink to That had another impressive showing from QB Matt Ryan (288 yards and 22.42pts) and her RB D. Murray (123 rushing yrds) and J. Howard(153 rushing yards for 26.2pts) but YWMKs also had strong performances out of his RB J. Stewart (22pts) and WR T. Hill (24.30) It was anyone’s game and I’m sure ill Drink to That wishes she played some of her bench. She left 43.48 sitting there. Ouch. I bet she wishes she was drinking some Rum on the beach in Hawaii with The Demogorgon.


Bobbum Man killed EBDB BnB 118.24 to 54.98. No recount needed on this one. Bobbum Man has been dominating this year and is looking to win the race. Huge performance out of QB A. Rodgers (246yrds for 30.84pts) and had 6 players scoring over 10pts. I think maybe EBDB BnB has all his players resting at his BnB. It’s hard when your kicker gets you the most points C. Sturgis (13pts). Maybe he needs a straight shooter like Mike Cox on his team.



It was another close race between In Your Endo and Keigl Titans. In Your Endo edged Keigl 90 to 82.  Keigl had a good performance out of Tom Brady (315yds and 4 TDs) She had other great turn outs from J Crowder (19pts) but In Your Endo edged her out with a strong showing from RB M. Forte (21.8pts) and QB M. Mariota (19.9). He still won with having his kicker on bye.



Rozzie Square beat Mocha’s Maniacs 95.90 to 88.80.  Rozzie’s QB D. Brees had a good showing against the Seahawks (265yds and a TD) and had 4 other players scoring over 14 points. She won despite her WR M. Floyd logging 0 pts. It does help when your opponent has the Ram defense playing on their bye week. Maniacs had some good showings from RB D. Freeman (17.80pts) and Gronk (16.90pts) but couldn’t recover from the missed defense.


Reflect back Leonard’s League.  Take a look at your mistakes from the previous weeks and use those to better your team, and yourself.  Let’s go ahead and play a full roster.  That may end up being the deciding factor between a W and an L.  Don’t build walls build bridges. Or, maybe it’s the other way around. In any case, remember that if we all work hard and play the best players’ week in and week out, we can make Leonard’s League Great Again.
