Well, my boys did it again. Not only did the Black Dwarves beat league best Johnny Utah158.9 - 137.0, but for the second week in a row (and the third time in six), we were the highest scoring team in the league!
Boo-yah!
Saturday night I changed my official team name from Baryon the MACHO Black Dwarf to Black Dwarves get all the Tail. And do you know why I was able to do that? Because I had every confidence I'd be the high scorer again soon, thus allowing me to change it back. Did I know it would happen this soon? No. Am I surprised? No. My guys are AWEEEESOMMMMMMMMEEEEEEE.
We're now 5-1, and having just crushed the only other 5-1 team, we are the clear class of the league at this point. (And don't even get me started on the Shadow Championship.) Does this mean there is not cause for concern? Of course not. Teams get cold. Tom Brady has a bye coming up, and he's the best player in the league so far. Stubborn ROFLsberger is hanging around in my division at 4-2, and one stumble puts me back in a tie!
But enough hand wringing. Let's look at total points. Thus far my Dwark Dwarves have scored 739.7 points, which is a 123.28 average. To put that in perspective, second place has scored 89.5 points fewer; 650.2 (108.37 average), and last place only 468.4, which is 271.3 points off my pace!
I have never been this good at this point in the season. I'm not positive, but I don't think any team in our league has. Of course, this is usually the time the gods punish me with an injury or a losing streak, and trust me: I'm not thumbing my nose at their hoary wisdom.
I'm just enjoying the ride for as long as I can. There is nothing wrong with that, right?

Thanks for failing to mention that old Tits Mcgee scored the 2nd highest amount of points. And that your luck is incredible! Even better than mine. You start guys on a chance and they outperform expectations. Nice job. I'm allowed to be a tad bit bitter aren't I?

I give you leave to be bitter Tits. 137.0 points *should* be a winning score any week.
