2024-2025 NFA Season Recap

And with that, we've r3eached the end of another NFA season. Let's see how it transpired. 

Standings as of April 14th, 2025
 
1. GG Foulin' - 10510
2. Pgastan FC - 10135
3. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 9210

6. Arlington Assaulters - 8275
7. Ohsnappers!!! - 7835
8. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 7105
9. Gamblor - 5795

Here's the updated All-Time NFA Standings:
 
 
Like last year, only 2 teams broke 10,000 points. This time it was GG Foulin' and Pgastan FC. Rodman'sWeddingDress gets a trophy for the first time in 10 years when they last won the league. Pgastan FC is back on the podium after missing out on a trophy last season. PFC posted a rally to come within 400 points of GG Foulin' but it was too little too late. GG Foulin' has now won 4 of the last 5 titles.

Team Foul Stats
Let's take a look at which foul club accumulated the most stats of each of the 5 stat categories as well as totals for the NFA this season.

Personal Fouls 
Total: 10,661
Leader: GG Foulin' with 1,534 fouls (14.39% of the league's fouls)
Low: Gamblor with 843 fouls (7.91% share)

Foul Outs
Total: 83
Leader: GG Foulin' with 22 (26.5% share)
Low: Gamblor with 0 (0.00% share)

Technical Fouls
Total: 294
Leader: Rodman'sWeddingDress with 50 (17.00% share)
Low: Oww Ming's Flagrants with 19 (6.46% share)

Flagrant Fouls
Total: 43
Leader: F'N FLOPPERS with 9 (20.93% share)
Low: Oww Ming's Flagrants with 0 (0.00% share)

Ejections 
Total: 24
Leader: F'N FLOPPERS with 9 (33.33% share)
Low: GG Foulin' with (0.00% share)


Let's take a look at these totals a little more because it's quite interesting. GG Foulin' ended up winning the league coming in 2nd to last in techies and getting 0 ejections. But they finished 135 more personal fouls ahead of 2nd place Pgastan FC. They finished in 1st place in foul outs so I guess they really emphasized personal fouls and foul outs. They did finish in 2nd for flagrants with 8. Ironically, Oww Ming's Flagrants failed to record a flagrant foul this season.

There was 1 record set this year, where F'N FLOPPERS recorded 9 ejections this season.

Personal Fouls
Pgastan FC: 1,766 (2009-2010) 

Foul Outs
Oww Ming's Flagrants 27 (2018-2019)

Technical Fouls
Oww Ming's Flagrants: 70 (2016-2017)

Flagrant Fouls
Pgastan FC: 12 (2016-2017)

Ejections
F'N FLOPPERS 9 (2024-2025)

Average Points Per Game: The order is the final standings.

1. GG Foulin' - 20.02 (525 Games)
2. Pgastan FC - 18.43 (550 Games)
3. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 17.92 (514 Games)

8. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 14.90 (477 Games)
9. Gamblor - 13.26 (437 Games)

League Average -17.10 (491 Games)

In terms of average points, GG Foulin' correctly finished in 1st, but F'N FLOPPERS should have finished in 2nd place while PFC should have finished in 3rd place.

NFA Titles:
GG Foulin' 5 - 2016-2017, 2020-2021, 2021-2022, 2023-2024, 2024-2025

Arlington Assaulters 2 - 2013-2014 and 2015-2016

2024-2025 NFA Season: 5th Month Analysis Blowout!

It's the 5th month analysis blowout which means we have played 20 weeks out of 25 in the NFA season. I have in the past done a 6th month analysis blowout in week 24 but I don't really see the point of that anymore since it's only a week before the season ends so this will be the last post before the season ends. I still plan on wrapping up with the End of the Season Donkies though. Anyway, let's get to the post! 

Standings as of March 10th, 2025
 
1. GG Foulin' - 8790
2. Pgastan FC - 8085
3. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 7430
4. F'N FLOPPERS - 6975
5. Baltimore Hitsquad - 6790
6. Arlington Assaulters - 6475
7. Ohsnappers!!! - 6440
8. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 5310
9. Gamblor - 4770
 
Average Points Per Game - Avg PPG (Last Month Avg PPG)
 
1. GG Foulin' (424 Games) - 20.73 (20.62)
2. F'N FLOPPERS (348 Games) - 20.04 (20.37)
3. Pgastan FC (432 Games) - 18.72 (19.03)  
4. Rodman'sWeddingDress (405 Games) - 18.35 (18.94)
5. Arlington Assaulters (372 Games) - 17.41 (17.26) 
6. Ohsnappers!!! (385 Games) - 16.73 (16.67)
7. Baltimore Hitsquad (410 Games) - 16.56 (16.12)
8. Oww Ming's Flagrants (370 Games) - 14.35 (14.32)
9. Gamblor (353 Games) - 13.51 (13.27)
 
League Average (389 Games) - 17.38 (17.40)   
 
The standings in the order of points per game did not change from last month and the league average barely moved either which makes since as we are 20 weeks into a 25 week season. Comparing the regular standings to these though, we can conclude that F'N FLOPPERS has either gotten really unlucky with injuries or not maximizing setting their lineup as they are in 2nd place by this metric but only have 348 games played. Arlington Assaulters is over performing and Baltimore Hitsquad seems to be under performing. Ohsnappers!!! might be slightly under performing as well. Just goes to show you gotta manage your team and maximize games played as well as draft well.

Projected Final Standings as of March 10th, 2025
 
1. GG Foulin' - 11,230
2. Pgastan FC - 10,130
3. F'N FLOPPERS - 9,520
4. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 9,515
5. Baltimore Hitsquad - 8,630
6. Arlington Assaulters - 8,290
7. Ohsnappers!!! - 8,285
8. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 6,790
9. Gamblor - 6,235
 
No change in projected standings from last month either but of course, the projected final scores did change. It's interesting to note that Pgastan FC has been fouling consistently the past month as their projected final points has stayed the same at 10,130. Unfortunately, they need to be over performing in order to catch GG Foulin' which seems out of reach at this point.  The projected final standings have F'N FLOPPERS finishing 5 points ahead of Rodman'sWeddingDress but is currently 485 points behind. This can be traced back to their lack of games played as mentioned above. 

Points Graph:
 


Tier 6: Oww Ming's Flagrants, Gamblor
Tier 5: Arlington Assaulters, Ohsnappers!!!
Tier 4: F'N FLOPPERS, Baltimore Hitsquad 
Tier 3: Rodman'sWeddingDress
Tier 2: Pgastan FC
Tier 1: GG Foulin' 

We've had a little shakeout of the tiers. Oww Ming and Gamblor remain at the bottom and GG Foulin' at the top but the middle tiers have changed and I added an additional one. Arlington and Ohsnappers are in tier 5 while F'N and Baltimore are next. Rodman is kind of in a purgatory between tiers 4 and 2 as they are about 500 points ahead of tier 4 and 600 points behind tier 2. 

Well that's it for now.
 
Keep Foulin' Y'all!
