Month: December 2025

What a wild and wacky finish to Week 17. Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua posted substandard performances on Monday night, and as a result, TroyA scored his best total of the season, to edge Kerry for the weekly win.

TroyA hit 411, thanks to a lineup led by Burrow, Purdy, McCaffery, Crosskey-Merritt, Nacua, Burden, McBride, Aubrey and the Broncos D.

Kerry popped a 396, with a lineup featuring Maye, Purdy, McCaffery, Crosskey-Merritt, Nacua, Olave, McBride, Aubrey and the Broncos D.

Nacua’s relatively low score, allowed Burden to come into play on TroyA‘s lineup, boosting him past Kerry and earning bonus points as well.

This is TroyA’s first weekly win since Week 5 last season, and Kerry‘s first pay day since Week 8 last year, a season that saw her claim three runner-up prizes for the year. Congrats to both TroyA and Kerry, two former league champs who are consistently near the top of the leaderboard every season.

Speaking of league champs, this week’s third-place finisher, Andrew (384), may have put the title out of reach.

The Leaderboard:
The top five spots on the leaderboard remained unchanged, but TroyA’s big week may have Michael looking over his shoulder headed into the final week. Andrew and Eric may have sealed their one-two finish with this week’s performances. The drama this week was Kerry was able to leap ahead of CarlP to claim the last money spot, but a mere eight points is all that separates them.

1. Andrew  (4816)
2. Eric (4658)
3. Jack (4561) 
4. Michael (4518)
5. TroyA (4500)
6. Kerry (4493)
 CarlP (4485), RandyH (4411), Trent (4382), and Tom (4358) round out the top 10.

With a week to go, Andrew appears poised to claim his second league title, while Eric will once again finish in an oh-so-familiar spot. More on that next week, if it holds up. Good luck to all in the final week of 2025.

Next week, we crown a league champion.

For the second week in a row, CarlP blows the rest of the league away.

This week CarlP topped 400 points, posting a 414 thanks to a roster led by Purdy, Robinson, Gainwell, Nacua, Olave, Smyth and the Texans D.

Runner up in Week 16 was Tom, who posted a 361, thanks to a lineup featuring Stafford, Purdy, Robinson, Smith-Njigba, Olave and Fitzgerald.

As noted, this is CarlP‘s second weekly win in as many weeks, and Tom‘s first pay day since the last week of the 2024 season. Congrats to CarlP and Tom on their strong showing prior in Week 16.

The Leaderboard:
The top four spots remained unchanged in Week 16, though Andrew and Eric look to be solidifying their place atop the leader board. TroyA climbed to fifth and CarlP uses his late-season push to move into the last money spot, edging Kerry.

1. Andrew  (4432)
2. Eric (4302)
3. Jack(4230) 
4. Michael (4201)
5. TroyA (4124)
6. CarlP (4118)
 Kerry (4097), RandyH  (4081), Luc (4044), Trent (4025), and round out the top 10.

Andrew looks to be in position to claim his second league championship. Jack and Michael are in a tight race, and I don’t dare speculate on the final two money spots with two weeks to go.

It was a good night, and a strong finish for CarlP, who saw his Steelers win on Monday night, and Gainwell’s strong night delivered him a weekly win.

Carl‘s team scored a 386 and was led by Allen, Purdy, J. Williams, Gainwell, Corum, Smith-Njigba, Olave, McBride, and Myers.

Our runner up in Week 15 was Beth, whose lineup featured Allen, Lawrence, J. Williams, Gainwell, Corum, Chase, McLaurin, Kittle, and Aubrey to score a 373 and edge Eric.

This is Carl‘s first win since Week 16 a year ago. Beth enjoys her second pay day in the last three weeks. Congrats to Carl and Beth on their strong Week 15 performance.

The Leaderboard:
Andrew and TroyA were the only two owners to remain unchanged on the leaderboard after Week 15. Eric jumps back into second, Jack moves up to third and Michael tumbles two spots. But it’s former league champ Kerry who surges into fifth.

1. Andrew  (4089)
2. Eric (3953)
3. Jack(3946) 
4. Michael (3876)
5. Kerry (3841)
6. TroyA (3811)
 RandyH  (3804), David (3768), Trent (3749), and CarlP (3732) round out the top 10.

The shuffle between spots second through fifth shows just how tight this race remains. Can anyone catch Andrew with three weeks to go???

New play list for Weeks 15-18

Every week I send out my weekly lineup, just in case. And for most weeks this season, I have been a non-factor. Until this week.

My Week 14 lineup scored a 485, thanks to a team led by Allen, Love, Gibbs, Neal, Gainwell, Smith-Njigba, M. Wilson, Watson, Aubrey and the Broncos D.

Second place goes to CraigS, with a 441, thanks to a roster featuring Allen, Goff, Gibbs. Fannin, Smith-Njigba, Collins, M. Wilson, Aubrey, and the Broncos D.

This is my first weekly win since Week 11 of last season, and CraigS‘ first pay day since Week 1 of the 2025 campaign. Congrats CraigS.

Honorable Mention: Kerry (432), Andrew (428), Jack (408), Heather (407), all topped 400 points in Week 14. Impressive.

The Leaderboard:
We may look back at Week 14 and Andrew‘s 400+ showing as the week that sealed his title, but Micheal, Eric and Jack still hope to have something to say about it. Michael continues his climb, moving into second. Check out how tight the race is between Jack and Eric and Randy and TroyA.

1. Andrew  (3775)
2. Michael (3612)

A festive Thanksgiving weekend concludes with Michael gobbling up his third weekly win of the 2025 campaign, and making a little league history in the process.

Michael posted a 385, thanks to roster led by Maye, Brissett, McCaffery, Henry, Collins, Williams, McBride, Myers and Seahawks D.

Sophomore owner Beth had her best effort of the current season, posting a 364, thanks to lineup featuring Allen, Brissett, Achane, Henry, Chase, Collins, McBride, Aubrey and the Seahawks.

This is Michael‘s third weekly win of the year, but first since Week 5. Beth had her first pay day since Week 17 of last year. Congrats to Micheal and Beth on their strong performances this Thanksgiving.

League History
With Micheal‘s third weekly win, this marks the first time since 2021 that we’ve had two owners win the week three or more times in the same season. Kudos to Micheal and Andrew.

The previous tandems to do it were:
2021: JohnK/RandyH,
2019: SteveB /Jack and
2018: Mike/TroyA.

What makes Michael and Andrew‘s feat that much more impressive is they both accomplished it in only 13 weeks, and Andrew has a fourth win already. No two owners have ever combined for seven weekly wins, and we still have five more weeks to play. Impressive.

The Leaderboard:
The top two spots remain unchanged in Week 13, though Andrew continues to extend his lead over Eric. Michael used his big week to leap frog Jack , while TroyA and RandyH held serve.

1. Andrew  (3347)
2. Eric (3249)
3. Michael (3246)
4. Jack(3183) 
5. TroyA (3168)
6. RandyH (3154)
 David (3119), Kerry (3107 )and Dennis (3062), and Luc (3058) round out the top 10.

Check out how tight the race is between second and third right now.
