Week 1 saw a few close matchups and a few blowouts. Here's what happened:
Game of the Week: Will Scarlet O'Hara (0-1) vs. Forever Annyong (1-0)
This was a close one, as WSO got a great performance out of Dallas QB Tony Romo (47 pts.), and they had a 21 point lead going into the Sunday night game. But Forever Annyong got a clutch performance from Green Bay WR Greg Jennings, who came up with 28 points to pull out a 120-113 win for FA.
In other action:
-The Rockford Peaches, despite having Terrell Owens, managed to beat Team Henoch 108-99. Team Henoch's running backs (Chris Johnson, Darren McFadden) were terrible. In other news, rumors are flying that Team Henoch will face serious penalties for refusing to come up with a team name.
- Round 1 of the longstanding rivalry between Frank the Tank (this season sponsered by Home Depot for some reason) and Unnecessary Flair was no contest, as the oldest Martin brother's team beat down UF 148-80. Dwayne Bowe was HDFT's 5th highest scorer, and he outscored all 3 of UF's receivers by himself. Adrian Peterson had more than half of Unnecessary Flair's total by himself, putting up 47 points.
- Speaking of beatdowns, Trexler's Gunners dropped a train on Dr. Zoidberg, 192-103. Drew Brees had 58 points (although playing Detroit should halve your fantasy points), and the Eagles defense had 54 points, as Jake Delhomme turned the ball over 5 times against the Eagles on the field and once each during the pre-game pep talk, during the halftime speech, and then fumbled his sandwich during the post-game spread. Zoidberg's balanced attack just wasn't enough.
-Reigning league champion Rahul's Balts-ville Godmorgons opened with a comfortable 108-60 win over Fart Knockin' on Your Door. Fart Knockin's first two picks in the draft, RBs Stephen Jackson and Steve Slaton, combined for a whopping 7 points. Losing WR Anthony Gonzalez early in the Colts game didn't help matters.
-Finally, in the battle of teams randomly named after decidedly average Dolphins wide receivers, Ted Ginn's Year prevailed over OJ McDuffie Parmigiana. Each team's ground game was awful- out of the 6 RBs on the field, Detroit's (yes, a Lions player did something good) Kevin Smith had the most points- he was the only one with more than 6. Santonio Homles's 24 points was the key to TGY's victory.
