THE WEEK THAT WAS
A perennial division cellar dweller, Young Garrett Cheney's big claim to fame was winning Rookie of the Year in DFC V twelve years ago... and known for missing the postseason despite winning 64 games (then a record for most wins without making the playoffs).  But he does have some shining moments here and there, including this week,

In a rare 9 game week (only one time before have we had 9 games in a week), Garrett Cheney takes home his 4th weekly win of his career, going 6-3.  Chris Croyle, another who has seen the lower end of the ranking many times, comes in at number two, while Lt Dan Sellers gets 3rd, and Jacob Pinky takes 4th.  Zack "The Attack" Graves gets 5th, Mikey Nipp takes 6th and Danny Powell is 7th, all going 6-3.

Jonathan Osborne gets 8th at 5-4, Hurricane Rhett gets 9th and in a 3 way tie for 10th, Brad "The Lawdawg" Latta, Drew // Morris and Mark "The Mighty" Gainey, all at 5-4.

LIES, DARN LIES & STATISTICS

  • Well, stupid Yours Truly. I finally posted about my chase of Tad Roose's .500+ record as I was looking for my 33rd week. Then I finished 4-5.  So that streak is now over.
  • Who's up next?   Zack Graves has hit 22 weeks with at least a .500 record, while no one else really is above 12 weeks.
  • Also interesting to note, Zack Graves just finished a streak of 5 straight weeks at .500... in consecutive weeks, he went 5-5, 5-5, 5-5, 5-5 and 4-4, before going 6-3 this week. Looking back in the stats, lots of people went .500 three weeks in a row, and a handful went .500 four weeks in a row... but Zack now holds the record for most consecutive .500 weeks.  Uh... good job?
  • Looking at the much harder streak, of going over .500 in consecutive weeks, Randy Latta had 8 week streak and Lori Smith had a 10 week streak coming into Week 6. Both streaks landed with a thud as both went 4-5.
  • Brad Ashby now holds the longest consecutive streak of over .500 currently, with three weeks.  This is a tough league.
  • Two of the stalwarts of the DFC have been Mark Gainey and Big Eddy McBroom, with almost 250 playoff victories and literally 2042 all time wins between them... both have struggled this year, as neither have hit the top 12 so far.  
  • The last time there wasn't a Gainey or McBroom in the DFC postseason?  DFC I, in 2000, before either joined the league.  
  • Speaking of the DFC Power Poll Top 12, obviously 12 starting in the rankings.  Only 5 DFC'ers have remained in the Top 12 this entire season so far -- James Hawbaker, Clay Shaver, Randy Latta, Lori Beirne & Yours Truly.   
  • Clay Shaver & Lori Beirne are notable as both have spent the entire season in the Top 4.
  • Its a tough thing to do, that is to remain in the Top 12 all season, as last year, only Rhett Barnett, Randy Latta and Yours Truly did it... Hurricane Rhett went on to win the DFC Championship, while Yours Truly missed the postseason entirely.
