I took it in the shorts in both of my fantasy football leagues this weekend. Just couldn't start to make up for Aaron Rogers being on a Bye Week.

I picked up Matt Cassel off the waiver wires on Friday and started him in my 2nd QB slot. Worked out well.

The Matrix league I am in is killing me, but it is a totally new way of doing FF for me, so there will be a learning curve. I will be 1-3 this week, but am improving. Don't mind too much. I am holding my own with non-losing records in my other leagues. Overall not unhappy with the situation. Of course, having a home team be 3-1 in the first quarter of the season helps.

Looks like Locker might have some soft tissue damage to his right hip. This could be as much as 8 weeks out. Yuk... At least Fitz has a really good team to step in and lead!

This weekend will be interesting...

Afternoon chaps

Yesterday was the official end to the flying season, so now it's time for winter maintenance which also means more time for sorting PBEM turns. So if Simon or Per are still looking for a game I'm open to offers.

As an aside, yesterday was also the day where next year's photo was taken for the BBMF brochure. I also found out that I need to write a little piece about myself because they're putting my mug in there for some reason

There could be an opening for the right person.

It'll be a couple of weeks before I'm ready to start though, I'm heading off on leave next week so there's not going to be any turns sorted that week.

Absolutely no problems Martin. I'll be ready to go whenever you are ready. I'm currently composing a PM to you where we (maybe) could start to hammer out the details

I saw a girl over the weekend with pink hair. Not usually my thing, and so many times before it looked crappy. It actually worked on this chick.

The first THREAD head to head matchup took place in the basic league and is now in the books.

Float Fighters Lays Waste to USS America Tsunami to Take First Place

Float Fighters (4-0, 524.10 points) takes over first place in the league after leveling USS America Tsunami (14th place, 0-4, 429.96 points) 174.88 - 113.58. Float Fighters also recorded the highest point total this season. These teams are headed in different directions, with Float Fighters undefeated and USS America Tsunami winless. Jimmy Graham led USS America Tsunami with 27.00 points while Frank Gore brought in 22.30.

Smooth Moves by Float Fighters

�Peyton Manning had 34.08 points, the second-highest QB score of the week and the ninth-highest QB score in the league this season.
�Antonio Gates scored 24.60 points, the third-highest TE score of the week and the seventh-highest TE score in the league this season.
�Float Fighters had 7 of their 9 starters exceed their projected points.
�Kenbrell Thompkins ranked third in the league in scoring among WRs this week with 23.70 points.
�Matt Forte scored 19.70 points, which ranked ninth out of all the RBs in the league this week.

�DeAndre Hopkins scored a season-low 2.70 points, 33.0% of his projected 8.17, which is his lowest percentage of the year.

What If

�If Float Fighters played USS America Tsunami every week, they would be 3-1 this season.

�Had they played each other last week, Float Fighters would have defeated USS America Tsunami 134.46 - 93.76.

�If Float Fighters had played every team in the league each week, they would be 35-17.
�In addition to Float Fighters, USS America Tsunami would have lost to just three other teams this week.
�If they played the same schedule as Float Fighters, USS America Tsunami would be 2-1.
�If they played every team every week, USS America Tsunami would be 26-26.

Game Notes

�Float Fighters scored the highest number of points in the league this season with 174.88.
�The margin of victory of 61.30 points was the largest in the league this week and biggest in the league this season.
�It was a tough loss for USS America Tsunami, which put up the seventh-biggest score for a losing team in the league this season.
