STUNNED.
Dragons Slayed, Nighthawks Soars.
Week One and the race to the Subsim Torpedo Bowl has brought about...stunning results. Last year, scoring 100 points would normally guarantee a win, but after week one, it looks as though 85 points will get you a W. Stunning.
Two time defending Torpedo Bowl Champions, the Dragons, have been stunned by one of the international teams. Coming from dead last after the Thursday night game, the Australian Taipans have shocked the Dragons, who scored the lowest number of points for all teams in the week. After the game, Coach Rick said "OI, it's week one, talk to me in week 16," before using a taser to stun his team onto the bus.
The Taipans weren't the only international team to win. Canadian based The Really Ded Poets accounted for the Wild Boston Terriers (of Oregon) 114-87, while the Helmand Nighthawks showed exactly why they are the favorite to win the championship, stunning the South West Rockets in their first game with a record 136 - 49 win. Welcome to Fantasy Football Janeva.
The stunning player selection of the week was Broncolo's and Green Beans game. The Broncolo's started Vincent Jackson (suspended) while the Beans started two Saints players and the Viking defense, both teams which played each other. Had the Beans taken even a lackluster defense, say, The Chiefs, they may not have lost to the Broncolo's 82.36 - 67.74
The stunning win award however came down to the final minute of the San Diego/Kansas game. The BP Badasses were crying out for one more Bowe reception to counter Phillip Rivers, the hard charging QB of Mookie's Show Me Your TD's. The game hung in the balance until Rivers 4th and goal faux pau with 39 seconds to go. Final score, Badasses 81.81 Show Me Your TD's 80.91. Winning margin: .9pts. Stunning.
Each week, the Associated Subsim Writers (ASW) will nominated their Most Valuable Torpedo (MVT) of the week, the single player who proved decisive in their teams performance.

For a huge effort of 373 yards, 2 TD's and 22 yards rushing the Associated Subsim Writers are pleased to present Jay Cutler of the Mudville Nine, the Week One MVT.
