Ugggghhhhh....Week 9 Recap and Power Ranking

Ugh.

I know it's been a few weeks, but I want to write one of these recaps about as much as the Dolphins want to tackle Justin Fields.  Which is to say, apparently not at all.

So here's a rambling bullet-point recap of Week 9...

  • The top 3 teams in the league all lost.  Seems like things are up for grabs even more than usual around here.
  • I lost for the 3rd time in 3 weeks, by 38 points to Thong.  That's just embarrassing. Thong paid $4 to pick up the New England defense while I cheaped out and went with Minnesota instead.  That was a 40 point swing right there.  Sometimes it's the little things that get ya.  If Josh Allen's elbow is busted, I'll see you all next season.  
  • Thong is in 5th Place, a.k.a. Jean Shorts Place, a.k.a. Thong Memorial Place.  I bet if you did the research - which I never will - historically, Thong has spent more time in 5th and 10th places than all other places combined.  
  • Robby put up a week low 75 points and has lost 2 in a row, but still stands in 3rd place.  He hasn't won since he ran and completed the Marine Corps Marathon last Sunday morning.  Coincidence?  Probably!  But congrats to him anyways!
  • Maine kicked Robby's ass, in large part to Tyreek Hill.  And Robby was kind of ok with that actually.  
  • Sausage 85.01 - Mazzle 84.84.  Wow, this one was closer than the 1973 Kentucky Derby, where Travis's mom lost by a nose. ... Sausage is in 8th Place at 4-5, just hanging around, hanging around.  Kid's got alligator blood. Can't get rid of him.
  • Also, Mazzle has been bitching about all the points scored against him this season, but even looking at 85 points on the other side of the table, he couldn't get it done.  Mazzle is stuck in Auction Bitch place, and he's out of excuses.
  • OK, now we come to Michael Cole, who is itching for this recap more than that time in college when he got crabs from the UNC men's volleyball team.  Though he put up 193 and beat Travis this week, Michael still missed out on the all-time points record, which actually came against him. In Week 10 of the 2018 Season, Travis beat Michael 196-84, which, in addition to the all-time highest weekly point total, is also still the all-time largest margin of victory.  Now that's how you dominate someone....
  • And last but not least, Mike Frank had half his team on bye.  Even against Steve, that wasn't going to end well.  And it didn't, to the tune of 75 points and a resounding thud.  The surprising part was Steve putting up 141 points for NO REASON WHATSOEVER.  Well I guess his players had lots of yards and touchdowns, but except for that, NO REASON WHATSOEVER.
And that's a recap everyone.
