HTPB 23.6

Week 6 had massacres and Monday Night magic, let's dig in.  Shall we?

Hardcore Cabinet defeats Rush 'n Missiles

One special ed teacher kneels before another special ed teacher and offers him weed infused candies as tribute

Rush 'n Missiles had opportunities to avenge their semi final loss against Hardcore Cabinet but made several poor choices.  Had they played the second leading fantasy QB Baker Mayfield, he would have won, had he played the TE that he drafted early to spite HC, he would have won.  Unfortunately when the chips were down, RM stood there confused and took the frisbee straight to the shin.  (I'm now 3-0 against the other competitors in that game of beersbee, so who is too drunk now, bitches.  Hardcore Cabinet has been making hay on the ground this season and the trio of running backs, DeAndre Swift, JK Dobbins, and Joe Mixon.  

Italian Stallions defeats Ogre's Death Squad 

A big toed Ogre is trampled by a herd of Stallions

Jayden Daniels was the only position player on ODS to exceed expectations this week.  Italian Stallions continues to anger the fantasy gods by keeping hot streak run going.  The Loins are also looking forward to week 10 because if there was ever a season that he was going to end the streak against Hardcore Cabinet this is it.  Will the game of QB roulette ever come back to bite the loins in the ass.  Time will tell. 

Tinker Stinkers defeat Blue Gatorade

A tiny person holds an 12th place sign while spraying champagne.

Tinker Stinkers demands respect and apologies!  With this victory he leaps all the way from 13th to 11th place.  In a battle of two teams who had each only broken 100 once this season, Tinker Stinkers slayed the mighty Blue Gatorade and all shall acknowledge him!  Blue Gatorade did not score a single touchdown this week.  Travis Entienne had -1 yard.  Just a real shit performance, er I mean a valiant effort that was a feather in the cap of anyone who managed to defeat them.  Blue Gatorade managed to put up a whopping 46 points, which while disgustingly awful is still 10 points better than the BNE's league record low in week 2.  

Dollars defeats Eh Bid Dude

A man trying to hitchhike to week 10 gets sped past by a Ford Raptor.

EBD didn't start a full lineup and it was enough for Dollars to get his 5th straight week where his opponent did not score 100 points.  The only time this year that Dollars played someone who scored more than 100 points he lost.    Dollars continues to tip toe through the minefield this season as he has trotted out such luminaries this season as Chase Brown and Carson Steele.  Dollars has the same record as the Italian Stallions and Los Zapatistas but....  Eh Bid Dude watched all season how ungodly terrible Deshawn Watson has been.  He wants to chirp all season about how "smart" he is, but now wants pity because his margin for error is razor thin with no bench from all of his consolidation trades.  Well my friend, you are reading the wrong Flog for that.

Los Zapatistas defeat The Collegians

A wolf chases a man in a cap and gown.

The Shoes continues to pass out butt whippings.  Chubba Hubbard has been possessed by the ghost of Jim Brown, so Chubba's Hubbard's wife better watch her ass. LZ has also benefited greatly form this year's Blake Bortles: Justin Fields.  The Collegians continue to go as Burrow and Chase go.  That's has not been a winning strategy so far.  Los Zapatistas is hoping to earn that first round bye again this season and maybe actually doing something with it instead of being eliminated immediately in the next round like last year.

Stabmybalzrepeatedly defeats Bay-Bay's

(A mountie lays defeated under a pile of Magic the Gathering cards and comic books)

Neophyte member Bay-Bay's found out what it is like run up against an American original.  Breece Hall has risen from the dead to take victory from the Jaws of defeat.  Brock said that Dan has a Purdy mouth with 28 points.  Bay-Bay's takes the hard luck loss with the 4th highest score of the week.  I think if it wasn't for the Canadian exchange rate that he would have pulled this out.  

Big Nasty Express defeats Bricklayers

(The little engine that could smashes through a wall of Lego bricks)

Bricklayers continues to not find the win column as his lead in most wins in HTPB continues to dwindle.  It's gotten so bad in Layers nation that they have been reduced to not asking for the fantasy gods for a good week but instead are begging for their opponent to suck. While BL would be winless in 2 of the 14 possible schedules, he would only have a winning record with Dollars, paper mache schedule. BNE was able to overcome the double goose egg to get the victory and put more space between himself and the dog shit tier.  Jordan Love has scored at least 18 points in every game he has played this season.  BNE has a difficult schedule the rest of the way with only 1 game left against the dog shit.

Weekly pick em results.  

$$$ takes it home this week with a 6-1 record.

BG and ODS bring up the rear with 3-4 records.

Our overall leader is IS at 28-14 and SMBR pulls up the caboose at 21-21.

Tier 1 Kicking ass and taking names

1. LZ 68-10

2. IS 56-22

3. EBD 53-25

Tier 2 Good Solid Playoff Caliber Teams

4. BB 46-32

5. H 46-32

6. $$ 43-35

Tier 3 Trick or Treat Teams

7. ODS 40-38

8. RM 39-39

9. BNE 35-43

10. TC 31-47

Tier 4 Dog Shit

11. SMBR 25-53

12. TS 25-53

13. BL 23-55

14. BG 16-32

We finally have our first lucky and unlucky teams.  Dollars is three spots ahead of where he should be.  Eh Bid Dude is 3 spots lower but that is by his own design so I wouldn't classify it as unlucky.
