The Situation vs. Shoelace
Shoelace had five player score 11 points or more in this matchup and rode that
success to the 107-90 win over The Situation. His top players included Chris
Johnson, who scored 19 points and is improving on his lackluster start to the season
with each passing week, and Greg Jennings, who also scored 19. The Situation got
some solid play from Arian Foster, who scored 21, and the Steelers defense, which
scored 15, but the rest of his team failed to produce any big numbers.
Blade Runners vs. The Mudmonkies
Blade Runners has some of the worst luck this week. Two of his most reliable
players in Miles Austin and Antonio Gates decided to both have their worst games
of the season, scoring 1 point each. Their poor play spelled bad news for Blade
Runners, who lost 65-91 to the Mudmonkies. The Mudmonkies created a unusual
combination at RB with both BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Marshawn Lynch, but it
worked out perfectly for him as they combined for 18 points.
Big City Boozers vs. The Usual Suspects
Even if he is disgruntled with his playing time with the Giants, Brandon Jacobs is
starting to make an impact fantasy wise this season. He scored 15 points off of 2
TDs and led Big City Boozers to a 87-65 win over the Usual Suspects. While Big
City Boozers didn’t have a great game from fantasy breakout Brandon Lloyd, he
did earn a superb game from Mike Wallace, who benefited from the return of Ben
Roethlisberger at QB. The Usual Suspects had an all-around mediocre week from his
team, with only Kyle Orton and Matt Forte managing to put up more that 10 points.
7.0 vs. Roger
While DeSean Jackson was forced to leave in the first half due to a concussion, he
still scored two TDs beforehand, which was good enough for 19 points. His play
along with Aaron Rodgers, Steven Jackson and Pierre Garcon lifted 7.0 to an easy
92-51 win over Roger. Roger failed to get much production from any of the players
on his team. The most notable scores came from Willis McGahee, who didn’t have
a single carry against the Patriots, and Santonio Holmes, who scored only 3 points
and is still working his way into the Jets offense. Worst of all, Roger had some solid
scores waiting on the bench in Thomas Jones, who scored 17 points, and Mario
Manningham, who scored 11.
The Beerlympians vs. Albert is my Homeboy
Even though Ryan Torain was making his first start of the season on Sunday night,
the prospect of him going up against the Colts defense was too enticing for the
Beerlympians to pass up. He started Torain and the young RB didn’t disappoint,
scoring 22 points and leading the Beerlympians, along with Andre Johnson, to a 111-
91 win over Albert is my Homeboy. Albert is my Homeboy had a good week as well,
but starting Chester Taylor didn’t work out as he would have hoped. Taylor still
hasn’t found a role in the Bears offense, and most likely won’t find one for the rest of
the season.
Captain No Nads vs. Baba Booey
Even with Shaun Hill and Drew Stanton at QB, Calvin Johnson is still managing to
put up some monster numbers. He scored 20 points this week and helped give Baby
Booey a 95-70 victory over Captain No Nads. Baby Booey also received some good
play from Frank Gore, who picked up 14 points after rushing for 149 yards without
scoring a TD. Captain No Nads had some good scores from the Colts players on his
team, with Joseph Addai running for 16 yards and Austin Collie picking up 11, but
the rest of his team floundered, costing him any chance at winning the match.
