An apology letter to Andrew Erk, Amari Cooper’s Christmas card, and the fantasy guru proved us all wrong
I would like to start off this week’s article with an apology. An apology to Andrew Erk. After week 6 I wrote him and his drafting strategy off. You can’t win waiting on a QB in the draft and expect to compete week in and week out. You won’t be able to win in December … Continue reading An apology letter to Andrew Erk, Amari Cooper’s Christmas card, and the fantasy guru proved us all wrong
Tim cooks Ezra, I hate everything and I’m enjoying these wings compliments of the commish
Y’all really let me down. You know who you are. Shoutout Tim for calling Ezra out on his team for not making the playoffs. If you know you know. The Books Boss League opening round of the playoffs was moderately disappointing, but produced exciting finishes. The Avalanche and the Sandstorms advanced and will try to … Continue reading Tim cooks Ezra, I hate everything and I’m enjoying these wings compliments of the commish
Avalanche makes history, HSG completes epic collapse and I feel like a six win threshold is a perfectly reasonable bar
"Maybe it's an unpopular opinion but I feel like a 6 win threshold is a perfectly reasonable bar." You’re not wrong Jordan, but others may not see it that way. It’s always going to be challenging when you have the third most points but miss the playoffs. Take your committees elsewhere! With no shortage of … Continue reading Avalanche makes history, HSG completes epic collapse and I feel like a six win threshold is a perfectly reasonable bar
One spot remains, take your league narratives elsewhere, and can we have a committee to decide the playoff teams?
No, no we can't and shouldn't. One spot remains in the BBL playoffs as we head into the final week of the regular season. Who will take it? Let’s take a look at the two teams fighting for that final spot. HSG, 6-7 1609 points Currently holding that sixth and final spot, HSG has a … Continue reading One spot remains, take your league narratives elsewhere, and can we have a committee to decide the playoff teams?
Another victory poem, there is parity in the BBL, and Galen spends more time rooting against the Icecaps than for his own squad
Only two weeks remain in the regular season in Books Boss League. Three teams have now clinched postseason berths (Icecaps, GWW, Piranhas) while three teams have been eliminated (Misfits, Squatches, HCTM). That didn’t stop those three eliminated teams from winning this last week though. Who says the BBL doesn’t have parity? With four teams vying … Continue reading Another victory poem, there is parity in the BBL, and Galen spends more time rooting against the Icecaps than for his own squad
Time to dust off the poetry book again, the pin of shame, and in the spirit of Thanksgiving I’m going to let that one fly
Don't give Jack any locker room material, his team doesn't need any extra motivation to pin on the big board. Back to back weeks Jack has exposed some early predictions about the matchups and because its Jack, of course he is going to save them. He always saves screenshots for moments like this. We were … Continue reading Time to dust off the poetry book again, the pin of shame, and in the spirit of Thanksgiving I’m going to let that one fly
I hate the Bills, Gotham has lost all control and please, stop sandstorming everywhere
"It took just 24 hours to lose control of the city. Tonight, Gotham is relying on one man to save us all". That man was James Cook and he fell three points short. The city is now in ruins and I hate the Bills for it. Just catastrophic. “Some people are just allergic to winning”. … Continue reading I hate the Bills, Gotham has lost all control and please, stop sandstorming everywhere
A survivor pool winner, the gifting season keeps on giving and who is Jelani Woods?
“Jordan receives more bailouts than financial institutions in 2008.” Somehow someway, the Piranhas mustered up a 5-4 record with the third lowest scoring team on the season and Ezra made sure to let us know. It has got to catch up with the Piranhas eventually, right? I’m not sure, but the Piranhas will ride this … Continue reading A survivor pool winner, the gifting season keeps on giving and who is Jelani Woods?
The quarterback carousel, Y’all really let me get a win, and I’m tired of these waiver wire rbs dunking on me
“Y’all really let me get a win”. The Squatches finally picked up their first win of the year ending their seven-game losing streak. Perhaps this is the start of seven straight wins for the squad? Either way, it has to feel good to get one in the win column. There will be a lot of … Continue reading The quarterback carousel, Y’all really let me get a win, and I’m tired of these waiver wire rbs dunking on me
