Average Points Per Game - Avg PPG (Last Month Avg PPG)
 
1. GG Foulin' (450 Games) - 20.56 (20.07) 
2. Arlington Assaulters (424 Games) - 20.20 (20.09)
3. Pgastan FC (416 Games) - 18.92 (19.44) 
4. Ohsnappers!!! (394 Games) - 19.43 (18.27)  
5. Oww Ming's Flagrants (403 Games) - 18.40 (18.20)
6. F'N FLOPPERS (409 Games) - 17.79 (18.89)
7. Baltimore Hitsquad (390 Games) - 17.76 (17.41)
8. Gamblor (409 Games) - 15.29 (15.60)
9. Rodman'sWeddingDress (398 Games) - 15.63 (15.03)

League Average (410 Games) - 18.22 (18.11)  

According to the Points per Game metric GG Foulin' and Arlington Assautlers are correctly 1 and 2, however we get some curveballs starting at 3rd where Pgastan FC should really be in 4th and Ohsnappers!!! should be in 3rd. This really shows PFC getting owned by injuries the last 6-8 weeks and it's really showing. He's gotta hope he can hang on for that bronze at this rate. The only other change is that Gamblor should be in 9th place and Rodman'sWeddingDress should be in 8th. 

Projected Final Standings:
 
Team Name - Traditional Method (Linear Regression) [Previous Month's LR]  
 
1. GG Foulin' - 11,560 (11,750) [11,960] 
2. Arlington Assaulters - 10,705 (10,730) [10,905]
3. Pgastan FC -  9,840 (10,735) [11,470]  
4. Ohsnappers!!! - 9,570 (9,050) [8,910]  
5. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 9,270 (9,615) [10,015] 
6. F'N FLOPPERS -  9,095 (9,620) [9,875]
7. Baltimore Hitsquad -  8,655 (8,770) [8,825]
8. Gamblor - 7,820 (8,,035) [8,180]
9. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 7,775 (7,855) [7,985]
 
Based on our linear regression model, the projected standings still have GG Foulin' in 1st (no surprise) but they have Pgastan FC squeaking by Arlington Assaulters by a mere 5 points for 2nd place. F'N FLOPPERS is still projected to finish in 4th place followed by 5th place and then Ohsnappers!!! in 6th. Finally, Baltimore Hitsquad, Gamblor, and Rodman'sWeddingDress round out 7, 8, 9 (which is why 6 was afraid of 7). 
 
Points Graph:
 
 
Tier 6: Gamblor, Rodman'sWeddingDress
Tier 5: Baltimore Hitsquad
Tier 4: Ohsnappers!!!, Oww Ming's Flagrants, F'N FLOPPERS
Tier 3: Pgastan FC
Tier 2: Arlington Assaulters
Tier 1: GG Foulin'
 
Some movement in the tiers this week. The bottom tier stays the same with Gamblor and Rodman but they switch order. I decided to put Baltimore Hitsquad in their own tier followed by Ohsnappers, Oww Ming, and Floppers. Then I demoted PFC a tier because of their slump. I think there's a case to be made that Tier 5, 4, and 3 could be one tier but there's almost 1000 points between Baltimore Hitsquad and PFC so decided to break it up a little bit. But just looking at the graph there really is a middle tier of just meh teams. Finally, Arlington Assautlers deserves their own tier just behind GG Foulin' who is in a tier of their own at the top. 
 
Well that's it for now.
 
Keep Foulin' Y'all!
