Week 7

Streaks are the name of the game at the moment. The Bama Black Bears were strong out of the gate but have turned around to lose 2 straight games. The Pineapple Express was headed to a season just as bad as last years nightmare until they went on a 4 game win streak, the Fergs also showed why they are one of the best teams in league history and have put together their own 4 game win streak.

Damn spell check is not working for some reason...and I'm a writer not an editor so tough shit

#1 Turbo Techies 151------- #2 Tenn. Valley Vipers 156
FEEL THE SNAKE BITE ENTER YOUR VEIN. VIPERS WIN IN A HISTORIC COMBACK

If you didn't stick around to follow this game on Monday night then you missed the biggest comeback in the history of our league. Coach Wes was frustraded by Dree Brees throwing 3 interceptions but he did rebound to score 3 TDs so he can't be too upset by that, despite it costing him a win. It was that kinda game for the Techies, it was not meant to be despite a 151 point game by their team.
The Turbo Techies were all but celebrating their victory when DeSean Jackon, David Akers, and the Eagles Def posted 69 points against the Redskins to pull out a late win for the Tenn. Valley Vipers. It was the single biggest single game comeback win in the history of our league. You really have to give Redskins owner Daniel Snyder a lot of credit for this win. If not for Snyder running his real NFL team like it was a fantasy team the Redskins may not be such a discrace to the NFL. Since he has taken over as owner that franchise has been through 5 head coaches and 10 QBs. Excellent show of stability and decision making on the part of him and his staff.
Daniel Snyder is a great business man...unless your in the business of winning NFL games

#4 Pineapple Express 141-------------- #6 Mallards 87
EXPRESS ROLL OVER MALLARDS

The Mallards left over 50 points on their bench in week 7. Not that it would have mattered much as even with those points they would still have lost. The Mallards have posted one of the highest point totals in the league this year, but have failed to overtake the dormant Tenn. Valley Vipers for the #1 spot in the Appalachian Conference due to number of loses. Bye weeks no doubt hurt the ducks as Dolphin QB Chad Henne made his fantasy debut. It was not a memorable experience as he posted only 6 points. Add to that the Mallards desire to run a two TE system (always a good way to post low points) and the Mallards failed to break 100 points. It isn't that you can't win with a 2 TE system, many teams have done it, but it is very hard to win unless you have 2 A list TEs. The Dolphins Anthony Fasano is not that guy. Including the defense the Mallards only had 2 players in double digits. Good thing for them they didn't play the Baconators this week.
Ecco was about the only Dolphin the Mallards didn't start in week 7. Personally I like Ecco more than Chad Henne or Anthony Fasano

#3 Gusmeisters 142---------------- Decepticons 86
TRASHED! DECEPTICONS EMBARASSED BY GUSMEISTERS

Simply take a look at this game on Statracker and you will see right away why one of these teams in 4-3 and ranked and the other one is 3-4 and unranked. Despite Aaron Rogers dominating the worthless Browns defense the rest of the Decepticons were pathetic. The Gusmeisters tore through the Decepticons about like Optimus Prime does...although Coach CT's Decepticons were not able to keep it as close as the real Decepticons did. As far as team names go "Decepticons" is clearly cooler than "Autobots" but sadly we all know the bad guys never win in the end. The only thing POTW was missing here was an Ohio State player being on the Decepticons roster.
"Gusmeisters Prime" reduced the Decepticons to scrap metal







----VS----
da Bears 70------------------------ Fatboys 105
FATBOYS DEVOUR dA BEARS

Coach Doyle correctly pointed out that da Bears were 2-0 since moving to the two TE system. Now they are 2-1. da Bears TEs combined for 16 points which truthfully isn't that bad for players at a position some teams simply hope to get 1 point out of but da Bears defense(s) were a blast to watch. In rare POTW fashion I will start with a bench player. Coach Doyle benched the Falcons defense, who scored -6 points. Good call one would think...no so fast my friend. da Bears started the Bears actual defense and they battled their way to an impressive -10 point game. Add to that Andre Johnson ending the game from a local hospital, Hines Ward again showing little if any fantasy value, and you have the makings of a fine day of fantasy football hell. 2 TE system nothing, I wish da Bears could have started both of their defenses. The Chicago Bears defense without Urlacher it appearing to be an overrated creature. But we should have seen this coming...POTW is proud to present: "Things from Chicago that Suck"
The Cubs. Indeed no list of Chicago failures is complete without them on it. As the sign says, "Not all pain is gain"

Former Florida Gator's transvestite Joakim Noahla is currently with the Bulls in Chicago

Professional douche bag Kanye West is from Chicago....an apparently his head has been a landing site for UFOs

This fraud is also from Chicago (not really...technically he is from Africa and lived in Hawaii for awhile but who's counting)

This angry beast is also from Chicago. Fittingly enough she married the second guy on the list and has proven to be quite a con artist herself. Ask her about the Black Panther party, ACORN or Americorps...then ask yourself if you want her anywhere near the White House

Lesson learned? Don't take anything from Chicago, it is overrated and in the end will do a lot more harm than good.






----VS----
Baconators 110------------------- Ragin' Girth of Fury 126
THE "GHOST SHIP" TEAM SAILS PAST ANOTHER OPPONENT

The Baconators posted over 100 points and look to be on a roll. I look up and down this roster but to be honest I am running out of material. The Ragin' Girth of Fury didn't even start one of their WR spots (not that that comes as much of a surprise) and still walked away with this victory. Perhaps the best part of this process is that Wes has said he will start putting together a team of free agents to see if they can outscore the Baconators. No doubt an asshole thing to do but you can fully expect POTW to follow that crap.









----VS----
Steel Dragons 133--------------- #8 Frat-tastics 109
DRAGONS SPOIL CHESTER'S RETURN TO POTW
In a street fight to maintain respectability and a shot at the playoffs the Steel Dragons proved to be too much for the Frat-tastics. The Frat-tastics were hampered in the running game due to Knowshown Moreno having a bye week. The loss of this RB meant that an old friend of POTW, Chester Taylor, made his glorious return not only to the fantasy starting roster, but straight to the pages of POTW. On behalf of the POTW staff let me say, Welcome back Chester! Chester the Molester's best play came on the last series of the game when a screen pass bounced off his hands and into the hands of a Steelers players who took it 75 yards for a TD. Excellent work big guy, hope to see you again real soon.
Chester did not go to Ohio State (sadly) but he did go to Toldeo, which is pretty damn close





----VS----
#7 Fergs 154-------------------------#5 Bama Black Bears 137
FERGS KEEP IMPRESSING IN FERG HATERES CLUB GRUDGE MATCH
While the luster of the Ferg Haters Club seems to have faded in recent years due in part to Coach Ferg not talking as much as he use to (and a certain Turbo Techies coach playing the part of Lane Kiffin) this is still a classic matchup of two of the leagues oldest franchises. All in all the Bama Black Bears didn't look to bad with the exception of gimick WR Steve Breaston. In all fairness to Steve he is not so much of a gimick as a poor man's Anquan Boldin or Larry Fitzgerald. We have seen on numerous occasions where he posts big numbers but we have also seen these little 3 point games more times than we care to count.

BSc Rankings
It is that time of year again, time for the BSc standings to come out! Of course they don't matter but that is the point! The system as you may remember is based only on points since we all know a computer using a math formula is the best way to determine the best team in the world!
