Ok, I have a spare minute before I have to start drinking in costume for the Jewish holiday of Purim, so let's get this weekly roundup back on the right foot. The results and standings are below, but let's see how we got there.
Let's take the Sir Mix a Lot approach and start on the bottom. Our first matchup was
joe vs
Sabo as, Joe tried his best to get out of the cellar. Unfortunately for Joe, he still thought he was playing MLS Fantasy 2015 edition, starting the likes of Dempsey, Finley & Zizzo, who combined to give him 8 points this week, which makes sense since they all are averaging a combined 2.6 points per game this season! With Sabo staring 2016 standouts Diaz, Morales, Villa and Meyers, and like a cassette tape versus an iPod (are those even outdated now?) Joe didn't even stand a chance and fell to Sabo 47-63.
SoupInNYC was also trying to get into the win column last week vs
S
sbrylski . At least he put up more of a fight. Soup actually had a very strong backline of Mataritta, Goodson & Shea, with Vincent ready to autosub in after the goodson fiasco last weekend. He even had some great choices like Polster and Tchani in the midfield an Urutti up top.
S
sbrylski had the Diaz/Morales midfield combo that's been butter this season. With all that said it came down to Sunday with both teams tied at 56. Could this be the week Soup gets off the schneid??? Unfortunately this is neither horseshoes or hand grenades and close wasn't good enough. Soups 4 points for Gio and Vincent autosub gave him 10 more points to get to 66, but
S
sbrylski has Gio as captain for 8 points and Redding on autosub for 15 points and total of 71, narrowly edging out the victory to move to 2-1 and leave Soup still searching for that first win.
Damn, I have to get my daughter out of the house! I'll just have to highlight some more matches next week, sorry if I didnt get to yours. Big matches this week as
joe now has to face
S
sbrylski to get his first win & Soup has to go up versus
FredMertz, neither easy matchups. The kid finally lost and our newbie
Jack is somehow undefeated, still not totally sure what he's doing! Good luck everyone in the next round!!!
mgarbowski I'm gunning for you!
