TAIPANS HANG ON IN A SHOOTOUT THRILLER
...while the Nighthawks beat down the Monkeys
Week Five in the Subsim Fantasy Football League .... holy crap, were you watching some of the best football we've seen...since last week? We've got some high powered football, some low scoring slugfest, and another thriller involving our league leader that required not one, but two rewrites this week.
....and all this from the press box at Allegiant, where we saw the following ad on the big screen, next to Mark Davis' head cut.
DONATE TO SUBSIM...AND NOMINATE SUBSIM FANTASY FOOTBALL FOR BEST OF SUBSIM.
It was out match of the day folks and it was a ball tearer. If you were watching and turned off after fifteen minutes on Thursday night after DJ Moore scored a boatload of points, you missed one of the greatest come from behind, winning at the post moments we've seen. The Boss Team were down a million points when, once again, Stefan Diggs (WR) and Travis Etienne (TE) came out and piled on a combined 83 points. These two teams went back and forth, changing the lead five times before Josh Jacobs finally put the game away with a 1 yard TD run. The implications of thgis is that the Taipans are starting to run away with the league having won two games in a row. Final score in England, the Australian Taipans defeat the Boss team 164-157.
Around the corner, we had The Helmand Nighthawks hosting the Drunk Monkeys. This game was not even close folks, this was a red rump blow out. Travis Kelce's (TE) girlfriend, Taylor Swift could have suited up and scored in this game. FInally, the Helmand Nighthawks get their season pointed in the right direction with their second win of the season, defeating the DRunk MOnkeys 160 - 91.
In the Sugarland, Coach Casey and the Gunners were hosting the Black Cats. In another of the blow outs thius week, the Gunners just blew away the little Cats, even if they did play a man down. A lot of points were scored by the Gunners in this game, look out folks, they are on the move. Final score in Texas Guns of Hochuli defeat the Black Cats 142 - 99.
Back in Oregon, what were the Who Dat Nation Rises Coach thinking about for breakfast that they choose to non start three players. How could you ever record from something like this and expect to win. The Banter Brigade get an easy win and defeat the Nation 168- 98.
Kinda opens up the league a little bit as we look at next weeks games. e go back to Carolina next week when the Black Cats try to stop the Boss team from overshadowing them in the match of the game. Both teams are already fighting for the lives and its only week six.
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 winner was a high scorer and they needed every point to get the win. For the effort of 8 receptions for 230 yards and 3 TD's, for a total of 55 points, the Week Five MVT goes to DJ Moore of the Australian Taipans.
