Average Points Per Game - Avg PPG (Last Month Avg PPG)

 

1. GG Foulin' (372 Games) - 20.07 (20.79) 

3. Arlington Assaulters (344 Games) - 20.09 (20.55)

2. Pgastan FC (349 Games) - 19.44 (21.50)

4. F'N FLOPPERS (338 Games) - 18.89 (18.31)

5. Oww Ming's Flagrants (330 Games) - 18.20 (19.58)

6. Ohsnappers!!! (323 Games) - 18.27 (17.51)

7. Baltimore Hitsquad (333 Games) - 17.41 (16.85)

8. Gamblor (332 Games) - 15.60 (15.97)

9. Rodman'sWeddingDress (332 Games) - 15.03 (15.20)

League Average (339 Games) - 18.11 (18.47) 

Some craziness to point out in this edition of points per game. First, GG Foulin' has played by far the most games out of any foul club clocking in at 372 games with Pgastan FC the next at 349 games. This likely means GG Foulin' has avoided substantial injuries or has managed their foul club to maximize games. Probably a combination of both. Another crazy thing this time is that Arlington Assaulters has had a pretty spectacular month in that they are actually leading in this metric with 20.09 PPG just ahead of GG Foulin'. Other than that, it looks like foul clubs are fouling to their potential. 

Projected Final Standings:
 
Team Name - Traditional Method (Linear Regression) [Previous Month's LR]  

 

1. GG Foulin' - 11,665 (11,960) [12,200] 

2. Arlington Assaulters - 10,795 (10,905) [11,370]

3. Pgastan FC - 10,600 (11,470) [12,185] 

4. F'N FLOPPERS -  9,975 (9,875) [9,955]

5. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 9,385 (10,015) [10,685] 
6. Ohsnappers!!! - 9,220 (8,910) [8,735]  

7. Baltimore Hitsquad -  7,795 (8,825) [8,445]

8. Gamblor - 8,095 (8,180) [8,230]

9. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 7,795 (7,985) [8,175]

 

According to this, Pgastan FC should still finish in 2nd place meaning Arlington Assaulters is projected to finish in 3rd. Oww Ming's Flagrants is projected to finish in 4th over F'N FLOPPERS by our linear regression model as well. The rest of the foul clubs are fouling to their potential based on our linear regression model.

Points Graph:

Tier 5: Gamblor, Rodman'sWeddingDress

Tier 4: Oww Ming's Flagrants, Ohsnappers!!!, Baltimore Hitsquad

Tier 3: F'N FLOPPERS

Tier 2: Arlington Assaulters, Pgastan FC

Tier 1: GG Foulin'

We've got some shakeups in the tiers this week. No change on the bottom tier, which is now tier 5, and tier 4 is the same except the Ohsnappers!!! is ahead of the Hitsquad. F'N FLOPPERS is now in a tier of their own in tier 3 which is clear in the graph. Tier 2 now has Arlington Assaulters in front ahead of Pgastan FC. Finally, GG Foulin' is the cream of the crop alone in tier 1.

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!

Week 15 Roudndup: Tiers of the Association

We've got some shakeup in the tiers this week as some teams have been under performing for a while. Namely, Pgastan FC and Arlington Assaulters have been been in a months long slump which has caused GG Foulin' to increase their lead at the top and F'N FLOPPERS to enter the race for bronze. More on the tiers in the points graph section but for now let's get right to it.

 

Stat Corrections:

- There were no stat corrections this week.

Transactions

- Arlington Assaulters added D'Angelo Russell on February 4th

Points Graph:

 

 

Tier 4: Gamblor, Rodman'sWeddingDress

Tier 3: Oww Ming's Flagrants, Baltimore Hitsquad, Ohsnappers!!!

Tier 2: Pgastan FC, Arlington Assaulters, F'N FLOPPERS

Tier 1: GG Foulin' 

Tiers 4 and 3 are pretty well defined with the teams close to each other within the tiers but enough space between the 2 tiers. Tier 2, however, has the 3 teams kind of evenly spaced out but it made sense to put them in the tier given how the season has been playing out and the fact that GG Foulin' is clearly in a tier of their own right now. 

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!
