The Unbeaten Polarbears - The Week 2 Review

ITS A LOTTERY V SUPER SWEDES

An Uncertain World.

FANTASY PREDICTION - SWEDES BY 14

FANTASY REALITY - SWEDES BY 41.64

In an uncertain world thank goodness for the Lottery. Another appalling performance by the leagues most hapless franchise ensured that some things never change. Another sub 100pts performance led to an easy win for a surprisingly nervous coach Peter. The prematch QB controversy proved irrelevant, at least in the short turn, as Tim Tebow could have won this one for the Swedes. The Swedes appear to have a line up of consistent performers along with depth on the bench. Any post draft doubts have been dispelled following their 2 and 0 start to season 4. Week 3 sees the Swedes take on the Warriors giving them a chance to open up a 3 lead on a divisional rival.

TIM RIGGINS BENCH WARMERS V 79FC

Riggins, Bush and Spiller

FANTASY PREDICTION - BENCH WARMERS BY 7

FANTASY REALITY - BENCH WARMERS BY 63.82

It stated with 29pts from the Packers defence and it simply didn’t stop. What kind of alternative reality do we live in when Reggie Bush is the leading fantasy running back? Even the Bench Warmers bench went wild with RB Tate, QB Smith and WR Little all posting above average scores.

Seventy Nine just have to take this one and move on. If you could choose a week to score a lowly 91.04pts then it makes sense to do it when your opponent posts an almost unassailable 154.86pts. New RB Morris hasn’t taken to life outside the Disco swamplands and returned just 8.90pts whilst rookie RB Richardson fulfilled his promise to deliver against the Bungles. Expect Richardson to force his way into the Seventy Nine starting line up before the season is out. A bad trade, a poor performance, line up errors, questions marks are beginning to gather around the stewardship of Coach Martin.

PAULS POLARBEARS V THE BONES ROCKS

Alternative Reality.

FANTASY PREDICTION - ROCKS BY 10

FANTASY REALITY - POLARBEARS BY 50.78

What kind of alternative reality do we live in when I write and you read ‘the unbeaten Polarbears!’ Despite going against all the known rules of space and time, the Polarbears are indeed unbeaten. These are heady days for Coach Paul with his rebranded franchise as unpredictable as the great man himself. TE Finley 0.60pts, QB Manning 37.20pts but a team total 125.50pts will bring home the W more times than not. Could the Polarbears really be a credible threat to the Swedes divisional title? There week 3 match up against the Benchwarmers has game of the week written all over it.

After a free win in week 1 against the hapless Lottery the Bone Rocks will be disappointed with this lacklustre performance. Coach Lars needs to cut RB Greene who is, was and always will be a bust. The receiving core looks weak and the bench is shallow. Look, I know its only week 2 but I’m calling it. The Rocks will not make the playoffs!

TTTAYLOR V THE HAIRY FROG DISCO

How the mighty have fallen.

FANTASY PREDICTION - TTTAYLOR BY 9

FANTASY REALITY - DISCO BY 67.28

There is a certain sadness that comes from seeing the once mighty fall. Like the first time a seemingly unbeatable Mike Tyson was knocked out cold or when Pele just couldn’t keepy it uppy anymore. Now, it would appear, the silent one has flown to close too the sun, the wax on his wings melting away, a spectacular fall to earth has begun. 49.66pts is the lowest score in league history. It is, quite frankly, embarrassing. Ttttaylor now stand at a previously unthinkable 0 – 2. No team has ever made the playoffs from a 0-2 start. Not once. Never in fact. But if coach, if one team is capable of making that happen its Ttttaylor.

Coach Calum went trade crazy this week and came up trumps with the trade of the season. QB Griffin danced his way to 32.44pts and helped the Disco to their first win of the season. Whilst it has been publicly stated that Washington signal caller will be called upon on a match up basis only you can expect those match ups to be favourable here on in. Despite the win, the Disco still look a weaker outfit than last season’s Carltonbowl finalists. Coach Calum appears to be seconding guessing himself when calling his line up and the trade frenzy would suggest that a degree of uncertainly surrounds the Swamplands franchise.

WEST COAST MAFIA V FEAR FACTORY

Eliot Ness.

FANTASY PREDICTION - MAFIA BY 1

FANTASY REALITY - FACTORY BY 8.54PTS

The West Coast Mafia meet their Eliot Ness this week in the form of the Fear Factroy. Many have been questioning Coach Botond’s erratic diet as deep hunger pangs appear to be affecting performance. WR Ogletree looks to be a one week wonder, TE Gates knees have clearly gone and RB Brown is never going to give you more than 5pts. You have to wonder wether Coach Botond has the stomach for the battles that lie ahead.

Never have the Mafia looked so impotent. Why did Coach Cullen draft RB Johnson with Spiller and Bush still on the board? Where is the cover at TE now that Hernandez is out for at least a month? The only positive for the Mafia is that the Central is looking like the weakest division in the league although if they keep posting scores of 72.34pts they could struggle to beat the laughing stock that is Ttttaylor.

AUTOPICK WARRIORS V FRENCH LEADER

Coach Conor.

FANTASY PREDICTION - WARRIORS BY 3

FANTASY REALITY - WARRIORS BY 22.36

The Warriors stay afloat with this win against a disappointing French Leader. QB Rivers 28.26pts and WR Bowe 25.20pts led the way but the Warriors still look like a very average outfit. They are a team without starts, a team that its difficult to get excited by, they are the Bungels of CNFLE. They will lose their Week 3 match up against the Super Swedes and fall again in Week 4 to the Bench Warmers after which they will be largely irrelevant.

French Leader left the win on the bench and should have known better than to trust the Cowboys D above the Seahawks. WR Blackmon was always on a hiding to nothing against a superb Texan D with both Maclin and Williams facing easier match ups. Coach Laurent needs to correct these errors of face another defeat to the Seventy Nine in week 3.

Good Call

The Benchwarmers. Reggie Bush, CJ Spiller, WR Cruz and the Packers D

Bad Call

Seventy Nine FC. The Griffin for Morris Trade.

 On The Board.

Griffin 32.44pts

Vick 27.24pts.

Times they are a changing. The leagues only unbeaten teams reside in the North. The Central, once the group of death, now looks like the group of the dead and the Disco prop up the South. Is this just a passing fad or the shape of things to come?

Good luck gentlemen
