Not much change in the standings this week, in fact only Rodman'sWeddingDress and They Call Me Gamblor switched standing positions with the former scoring a poor 265 points but the latter scoring a horrible 185 points.After that, Baltimore Hitsquad remains in 7th place despite a poor week of 245 points. Ohsnappers!!! also had a poor week, scoring just 265 points. The top half of the standings fared a little better. F'N FLOPPERS scored an average week of 300 points but remains in 5th place. Pgastan FC had a great week of 420 points and remains in 4th place. Oww Ming's Flagrants had an average week of 300 points but remains in 3rd place. Arlington Assaulters had another average week but scoring 395 points and remains in 2nd. Finally, GG Foulin' continues to separate himself from the rest of the league with an excellent 500 point week.

Points Graph:

Let's take a look at what has happened to the Truels this week:

 
Truel #1 1st-3rd: GG Foulin' is still pulling a way from Arlington Assaulters and Oww Ming's Flagrants
Truel #2 4th-6th: Pgastan FC and F'N Floppers are still close to each other with Ohsnappers!!! pretty far behind.

Truel #1 1st-3rd: GG Foulin' has pulled a way from Arlington Assaulters and Oww Ming's Flagrants
Truel #2 4th-6th: F'N Floppers has emerged from NFA Purgatory after 2 huge weeks. Ohsnappers!!! has kind of moved into purgatory as he is now 330 points behind 5th and 365 points ahead of 7th
Truel #3 7th-9th: This is the closest truel between all 3 teams, where they are only separated by 55 points.

How will these truels play out? We will have to wait and see.

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!

Week 10 Roundup: Moving Edition

Kind of crunched for time here, but saw this video of Rip Hamilton's craziest ejections last night as they were talking about most ejections since 2003-2004 season after Melo was ejected recently:

Now' let's get into this week's roundup:

- Pgastan FC added Austin Rivers and dropped PJ Tucker on December 30th.
- Pgastan FC added Marreese Speights and dropped Serge Ibaka on January 1st.


Standings as of January 2, 2017: 
 
1. GG Foulin' - 5350 (+760)
2. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 5050 (+395)
3. Arlington Assaulters - 4895 (+325)
4. Pgastan FC - 4300 (+390)
5. Ohsnappers!!! - 4240 (+320)
6. F'N FLOPPERS - 4145 (+350)
7. They Call Me Gamblor - 3725 (+240)
8. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 3665 (+525)
9. Baltimore Hitsquad - 3485 (+385)

<= 195 points: Horrible week
200-295 points: Poor week
300-395 points: Average week
400-495 Points: Great Week
500-595 Points: Excellent Week
>=600 points: Amazing week

GG Foulin' had an amazing incredible week of 760 points, which might be a record for weekly score (don't have the time to look into it). This unprecedented score has vaulted him into 1st and now 300 points clear of 2nd. Oww Ming's Flagrants had an average week of 395 but due to the aforementioned score of GG Foulin' he falls to 2nd. Arlington Assaulters also had an average week of 325 and remains in 3rd.

Pgastan FC had an average week of 390 points, 70 poitns better than Ohsnappers!!! who also had an average week of 320 points, but because the two foul clubs have been so close in the standings, PFC has passed Ohsnappers!!! for 4th. PFC is only 60 points ahead of Ohsnappers!!! so this is definitely a race to watch. F'N FLOPPERS had an average week of 350 points but is only 95 points behind 5th and can now be considered in the 4th place duel.

They Call Me Gamblor had a poor week, only scoring 240 points, but remains in 7th. Rodman'sWeddingDress scored 525 points, which would equate into an excellent week, but remains in 8th. Baltimore Hitsquad had an average week of 385 points but remains in the cellar.

Points Graph:



With GG Foulin's inedible week he is clearly in 1st place as illustrated by the graph. Oww Ming's Flagrants has just barely crossed the 5000 point threshold and Arlington Assaulters isn't that far behind. As mentioned above, 3 teams are now fighting for 4th place, unfortunately there is no trophy for 4th. They Call Me Gamblor and Rodman'sWeddingDress are kind of in their own duel for 7th right now, while the Hitsquad is in last place a few hundred points back.

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!
