NIGHTHAWKS OWN THE LEAGUE
Taipans Cling to Division

Week 9 in the Subsim Fantasy Football League, and finally, no body puts up a record breaking score against the Taipans. The Nighthawks put their stamp on a division, and the Gunners fall further back. The Cats show once again why the Nation are the better team, and this week, we get a special guest commentator.

But before we do anything else, here's the most important message you will hear all weekend.

DONATE TO SUBSIM

Apparently, some of the Managers still need some assistance with their teams, so this week, please welcome Mister Keyshawn Johnson as he introduces the Subsim variant of C'Mon Man.

That's Gut Wrench, it's a pleasure to finally make an appearance in this column, and what a week to do it in.

Nighthawks - Gunners. Nighthawks start the game early and run in for a quick touchdown. The kicking team runs out on to the field, the ball is snapped, the holder holds, but where's the kicker? The kicker is no where to be seen. Nick Folk is sitting at London Airport after he missed the plane. Nighthawks don't kick anything on the weekend. C'mon man.

Who Dat Nation and the Black Cats. The Cats continue to play most of the Panthers contracted players. Except at Wide Receiver. Golden Tate is their number #1 receiver. First play of the weekend, quarterback Cam Newton, three step drop, long pass down the sideline to Goldern Tate. He's not there. Tate's sitting at London Airport with Nick Folk before he comes back from the bye. Pass incomplete. C'mon Man.

Drunk Monkeys and the Taipans. Taipans got this one, everyone's performing on the team, everyone except running back Eddie Lacy. Lacy starts for the Tapins, runs backwards, looses the ball and gets benched. Taipans get a negative score. They could have left Lacey at the airport with Golden Tate or Nick Folk and scored more points. What are you doing, C'mon Man.

Thanks to Keyshawn Johnson for his low lights of the weekend. Now onto the sports report.

Let's start with our match of the week and the implications that it brings to the league. Guns of Hochuli are at home against the Helmand Nighthawks. The Nighthawks are just running away with their division and taking the remainder of the league along for the ride. The Gunners look to be the better of two possible teams that could stop the Nighthawks. Nighthawks add De'Angelo Willams (RB) this week who score 44.50 points, and is still not the highest scorer of the week. But the Nighthawks needed every yard because the Gunners model of consistency stepped up with Aaron Rodgers (QB) scoring 45.46, still not the highest score of the weekend. Gunners got let down by running back Alfred Morris who ran for 10 years before bruising his ego, and stopped scoring at 1 point. Guns of Hochuli scored a lot of points but still fall short of defeating the Helmand Nighthawks. Nighthawks take their second win of the season against the Gunners 183 - 165, and move to within half a game of securing a play off berth.

Defending Torpedo Bowl Champions the Black Cats continue to ride on last years strength as they roll into Oregon. Cat quarter back Cam newton leads the team 40.58 points, but that too is still not the highest scorer of the weekend. On the other side of the 50 yard line, Who Dat Nation Rises quarterback Drew Brees scores 42.38 points to counter, also not the highest individual score of the week, just a week after scoring 60 plus points on the bench. The Nations wide receiving corp combined for over 61 points, which was just too far a reach for the Black Cats to crawl back against. Who Dat Nation Rises Again opens up a one game divisional lead by beating the Black Cats 163 - 129.

Final game of the week and what a game it was. Coach Gargamel and the Drunk Monkeys roll into Australia, still hammered from the previous weekend, and meet the Taipans. Taipans started the season losing narrowly everything, and have been just awful in the past few weeks. Not this week though, as the Taipans belted the Monkeys. This game started Thursday night with Andy Dalton (Taipans) throwing for over 26 points, but it was in their receiving corp that the Taipans finally showed some teeth, scoring between three receivers over 105 points - more than at least their entire score in one game. Late on Monday Monkeys close the gap with Phillip Rivers (QB) and Alshon Jeffrey (WR) scoring for a combined 47 points, but it wasn't enough. Taipans grab one of the cellar dwellers victories and keep the Surface Skimmers Division alive with a convincing 196-130 over the Monkeys.

"Strewth," Coach Pioneer was heard to say at the end of the game.

This weeks games create a little bit of havoc within the league, with one team dropping back unexpectedly, and one team winning unexpectedly. We're getting closer to the Thanksgiving Week, the longest week of football on the calendar, so we'll put both divisions in perspective now, which will help decide next weeks feature game.

In the Sub Siummers Division, the Who Dat Nation get a helping hand from the Nighthawks who drop the Guns of Hochuli one game back. The Nation leads the division 6-3, but the Gunners at 5-4 are 4-0 within the division. The Drunk Monkeys at 3-6 are still mathematically alive, but will need some help.

Over in the Surface Skimmers Division, it's all Nighthawks. The Nighthawks have all but wrapped up a play off berth at 8-1, but the win by the Taipans means that this division will not be decided until at least week 10. The Taipans at 3-6 sit five games back, and have lost the tie breaker. One more win to the Nighthawks or another loss by the Taipans will cement the Nighthawks either the #1 or #2 seeding, regardless of what happens in the remainder of the regular season. The Black Cats at 2-7, with six straight losses, own the cellar, and while the bottom is a three way battle, the Cats need the most help.

So, what does that mean for next weeks game. We go back across the pond as the Helmand Nighthawks host the Who Dat Nation Rises again. This game may well decide the #1 seed in the league at the end of the regular season. The Nighthawks need one more game to take the Surface Skimmers Division, while the Nation needs the win to stay in front of the Gunners 4-0 divisional record.

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.

This weeks award goes to a player who scored a lot of points, without getting into the inzone. For the effort of 17 receptions for 284 yards and 22 rushing yards for good measure, for the highest score of starter this year at 51.60 points, the Associated Subsim Writers are pleased to present Antonio Brown of the Australian Taipans the Week Nine MVT.
