Week One

League of Ordinary Gentlemen fantasy football newsletter

Week 1 is when everyone still believes their draft board was scripture.

Five of you got confirmation. The other five got film study and a slightly longer walk to the waiver wire.

The undefeated club is crowded; the 0-1 club already has interior decorating ideas.

The games

Team Robottom 199.80
AINTS dat a B** Payola 137.80

Robottom hung a near-200 and made Payola look like a preseason dress rehearsal.

Size Matters 194.40
-Sutt-Dog - 131.80

Another 190+ night. Sutt-Dog brought a lineup; Size Matters brought a statement.

Closest game+6
Lock in fn 174.60
CeeDeez Nutz 168.50

Closest game of the week (6.10). One flex twitch and this line has a different hero.

Biggest beatdown+77
Pimp Trick Gangsta Clique 168.60
Prestige Worldwide 92.00

Biggest beatdown (76.60). Prestige brought the name. Forgot the points.

Drake It To You Make It 129.50
Jackmerius Tacktheritrix 120.30

Ugly, narrow, still a W. Sometimes you don't win the week; you just lose less than the other guy.

Power rankings

After Week 1
1
Team Robottom 1-0 -

High score, aura intact, already making the rest of us negotiate with reality.

2
Size Matters 1-0 -

194 is not a typo; it's a warning label.

3
Lock in fn 1-0 -

Survived a knife fight with CeeDeez; process looks boring in the best way.

4
Pimp Trick Gangsta Clique 1-0 -

Won big and still left 47 QB points on the pine (see blotter).

5
Drake It To You Make It 1-0 -

1-0 with a win that smelled like overtime anxiety.

6
CeeDeez Nutz 0-1 -

Lost by a possession; the margin is a ghost, not a funeral.

7
AINTS dat a B** Payola 0-1 -

Got trucked by Robottom; Week 2 is the palate cleanser.

8

Competitive until the flex became a haunted house.

9
Jackmerius Tacktheritrix 0-1 -

Close loss, loud bench (Bucky says hi).

10
Prestige Worldwide 0-1 -

92 points. That's not a floor; that's a trapdoor.

Crime blotter

Team Robottom

Winning lucky counts

Jalen Coker (34) sat while DeVonta (8) started - and they still dropped 200. Winning lucky counts.
