BFFA – GW17

EYE-CATCHING!

  • 10% of the fixtures this match week were DRAWS
  • Pro-Rel Works, you american soccer federation shit-for-brains-dickheads

***The league tables for this week include a couple of fun stats including “Luck” and “Adjusted Points”.

  • Luck is a statistical comparison of the total fantasy points scored vs match result points.  Positive numbers are lucky teams and negative numbers are unlucky.  Numbers greater than 1 and less than -1 indicate an outlier value – these teams are TERRIFICALLY lucky or unlucky
  • Adjusted Points are a statistically normalized value of fantasy points scored given the strength of the league a team plays in.  Strength of the divisions is determined by the variation in the fantasy points scored throughout a given division, average points per team in a division, and several other variables.  
  • Bestish is the rank of the team in the Bestish table
  • Adj Bestish is the rank of the team in The Bestish standings if adjusted for league strength

 

Premiership

  • Promotion/Relegation has veritably led to a fantastically competitive Prem this season.  Eight of the ten teams are within 9 points of the top.
  • The top two teams fell, creating an even more crowded display of top sausage in the butcher’s window as Sporting Wicker Park and The Money Team pulled Bigo1 and East Loop Utd back respectively.
  • Don’t look now, but The Money Team’s run of poor luck looks like it may be about to do an about face.  Will TMT be able to extricate themselves from the stomping boot of karma?
  • It was a truly ugly week for scoring as the Vanishing Spray was one of only three teams pyramid-wide who scored over 60 points.

Championship

  • Phil Handler’s Galácticos led the entire pyramid in GW 17 points with 73, in a 33 point drubbing of the stylishly outfitted Branwellington.  Hoyle’s decision to go with the scandalously dapper 3rd strip may have been better made on a game week where they weren’t trying to run through a buzz saw.
  • KH Granitza stayed within spitting distance of the top three with a comfortable 3 points against the tepid Gene’s Unicorn.
  • Banana Swans made it 0 for 2 for the South Wales representatives in the champ.  They continue to be mid-table despite carrying a robust and talented squad. Things are bound to turn around there, right?

League 1

  • The first division has 4 of the best club names in the entire association:
    • Wijnaldum Leviosa
    • PSV Wide Open (so cheeky)
    • Tiger Tail Retaliation
    • Old England Sexpats
  • League 1 is also remarkably ANGLO.
  • 3 of the 5 League 1 matches were decided by fewer than 3 GD points.  Yer Man led all teams with 53. Sad horn.
  • The right side of the fixture list swept

League 2

  • Mourinho-LO got a result by parking the bus…38-34 of Hung like a Bony.  Seriously tho, Wilfred’s dong has to be of prodigious size.  If only we could get a Swans match to be televised on NBCSports to do a little more investigation. Pause…Rewind…zoom…repeat
  • Another tie for The Stranger. He should be happy.
  • Corey Cain, are you interested in writing a guest column for the BFFA Times?
  • Can we talk about original BFFA club The Globes for a second?  Ms. Sung’s side dropped one midweek, but her 9 wins has her squad in the top half.  I think her boys have decided it’s about time to return this club to it’s rightful spot up the ladder.
