Week 7 Wrap-Up

Umm, anybody laughing at the the only woman in the league this week or last week?  No, I don't mean Kyle, I mean my mom Vicki.  Yeah, my mom, she's put up a two week total of 312.25 points, which if I'm not mistaken is a league record for points over the course of two weeks.  Holy balls.  On to the week in review...

Fister?  I hardly know her. 91.45 vs. Angry Asians 87
I may have misspoken last week about which team was hapless in this league, as Wong's two-time defending East Division champion Angry Asians fall once again, this time to Kyle's friendly Fisters.  Steve Slaton paced Kyle's squad with 19.9 points on an otherwise unspectacular day by both sides.  The only competition put up by the Asians was Aaron Rodgers' 26.6 and Stephen Jackson's 13.3 points on a huge rushing day, but with nobody else but the New Orleans defense (17 pts) breaking double-digits you can't expect too much and that's just what they got.

Hail to the Chefs 119.7 vs. My Team Blows Again 124.75
In a great game with first place in the East Division at stake, J-Jak blew Tony away by just 5.05 points.  Arguably the most deadly duo in the league, Peyton Manning (23.65) and Adrian Peterson (18.9) got big contributions from Vincent Jackson (20.2) and Chad Ochocinco (23.8) at the wide receiver spot to out-duel Tony a spirited battle.  Tom Brady (25.9) couldn't gun-sling his way past his sworn rival, despite big help from Ryan Grant with 21.1 points and a huge defensive effort by Pittsburgh and Green Bay combining for 32 points.  Great game with big division standing implications heading in to week 8!

I Stiff Armed Your Mom 72.6 vs. Party Animals 154.3
Well Craig, it looks like my mom stiff armed you...  I take it back from earlier in this post too, the Stiffies just looked hapless again!  Vick posted another huge number, outscoring everyone else on the week behind four players that scored 26.6 points or more, including a NY Jets defense that threw down the gauntlet with 27.  Miles Austin rewarded the big $4 price-tag with a fat 28.1 points, not too shabby.  Craig countered with Thomas Jones who impressed for the second straight week, posting 17.4 points, but things need to improve in the Stiff Arm camp if they are going to right this ship and get back in to contention.

Lynnhood Curbstompers 72.55 vs. Show Me Your TD's 99.5
In a battle at the bottom of the West Division, J.J.'s gangsters enthusiasm was curbed for sure as Gas put together a winning effort thanks to an explosion by Vernon Davis (27.3) at the TE position.  Combined with four others in double-digits, Gaskill's crew fought hard for their second win of the season and crept out of last place, active defensive unit or no!  Lynnhood seemed severely underrepresented as Kurt Warner and Reggie Wayne were the only two who showed up to play, scoring 14.25 and 14.3 respectively.  Both teams will battle to right the ship and get right back in to the wild card mix while it's still within reach.

LFP Phreaks 100.1 vs. Breaston My Face 147.35
For the second straight week it's been Breaston My Face dominating the division competition, extending a near-record winning streak to seven games!  Philip Rivers and Ricky Williams each put up 27.2 points to start the fire on Sunday, and then DeSean Jackson extinguished any hope for an LFP Phreaks team that looked completely outgunned in Week 7.  Despite a 100+ point performance for the Phreaks, highlighted by Matt Schaub, DeAngelo Williams, and Donald Driver combining for 56.4 points (over 50% of the team total), it was never a terribly close match-up.

Week 8 looks to hold a lot of interest for a lot of teams, so let's head forward as we close the book on Week 7.
