Week 5 Roundup: Bench Techy Edition

It came to my attention over the weekend as I had a meeting with the GM of Arlington Assaulters that there are 2 definitions for Bench Techy:

Bench Techy:
1. Having a player on your bench in a given week receive a techy.
2. When a coach or player on the bench in real life receives a techy.

The first can be used for flagrant fouls, ejections, and foul outs as well for that matter. While it will most likely be a long time before we can have coaches in the NFA, a lot of managers still use bench techy as referring to definition number 2. I am thinking that both definitions be acceptable unless people have any objections. I can add this officially to the glossary in a few days.

With that out of teh way let's get to the roundup:

Stat Corrections
-Nerlens Noel had an ejection given to him retoractive to November 7th. F'N FLOPPERS did not have him active so he does not gain 100 points.
-Draymond Green had a techy taken away from him retroactive to November 22nd. Rodman'sWeddingDress had him active that day so he loses 40 points.

Yes, you read that first one right. We have either the first or second retroactive ejection in NFA history (I vaguely remember seeing this once before, but I believe it was to a free agent). I have never seen this with a techy being given to someone who already had 1 and today is no different. It appears that Noel was given a flagrant 1 in the game but upon further review they upgraded it to a flagrant 2, thus resulting in an ejection. Now, it's not like the player was ejected in that game or in a game later as a result of this, but it must just go on their NFA permanent record (and perhaps for fine purposes).

Standings as of November 30, 2015

1. Arlington Assaulters- 2655 pts (+575)
2. Rodman'sWeddingDress- 2075 (+320)
3. Oww Ming's Flagrants 1975 (+395) 
4. They Call Me Gamblor- 1740 (+405)
5. Pgastan FC- 1665 (+465)
6. F'N FLOPPERS 1605 (+360)
7. Ohsnappers!!!- 1580 (+395)
8. Baltimore Hitsquad- 1400 (+270)

Arlington Assaulters continues to demolish the league with another 500+ point week, this is truly incredible. Who is gonna have a down week first, Arlington Assaulters or the Golden State Warriors? Rodman'sWeddingDress had a decent 320 week but is now only 100 points ahead of 3rd who had a nice 395 point week. They Call me Gamblor had a 405 point week to remain in 4th. Pgastan Foul Club, and their new GM, had an excellent 465 point week in his first full week of GM duties. Unfortunately for PFC, NFA scores in general are up a lot this week so a 400+ point week doesn't have the buying power it used to have in years past. That 465 point week was enough for him to pass F'N FLOPPERS (actually he had 210 points on November 25th and went from 7th to 4th), who put up a respectable 360 point week despite falling to 6th. Ohsnappers!!! had a nice 395 point week as well but remains in 7th albeit only 25 points behind 6th. Finally, bringing up the rear, Baltimore Hitsquad had the worst week of the foul clubs with 270 points.


Transactions: 
-F'N FLOPPERS added Rodney Hood and dropped Richard Jefferson on November 23rd
-Ohsnappers!!! added Richard Jefferson and dropped Kevin Seraphin on November 23rd
-Ohsnappers!!! added Marvin Williams and dropped Klay Thompson on November 23rd
-They Call Me Gamblor added Rudy Gobert and dropped Timofey Mozgov on November 26th
-Pgastan FC added OJ Mayo and dropped Michael Carter-Williams on November 27th
-Pgastan FC added Gerald Green and dropped Ian Mahinmi on November 27th









Well that's a pretty long update, but that's all I got for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!
