FFFRENZY 2024: Season 28 - Draft & Week 1 Recap
COMMISH'S NOTE (9/9/2025): And... we're off!!!
I think we had a pretty successful draft. And when I say successful, I mean that we got through it relatively quickly with minimal downtime and a normal completion time. Four hours ain't so bad. Now, how successful YOU'RE draft was is up for debate. Let's see how Week 1 panned out for everyone.
As we do every year, we begin by honoring those who acheive Weekly High Score. This Week 1 award, by a margin of 0.10 points (which in fantasy football is the equivalent of ONE SINGLE GAINED YARD) JAR Machine gets the prize over Tijuana Jets. Both teams, drafting in the bottom of the draft order, put together excellent Week 1 lineups. Congrats to the first prize of the year.
In our weekly matchups, JAR Machine used their massive score to beat the third highest scoring team of the week, Howling WOOOlf. It's a damn shame the highest scoring teams played each other, in what would have been an EASY win for b had he played any of the nine other teams. The Fantasy Gods have already announced their anger with some nasty judgments.
Tijuana Jets beat up on BLITZ, who could not take advantage of Josh Allen's Top Player of the Week performance. Unrealistic Mofos counted on two MNF players to squeak by with a victory over SMASH BROS. Pelican put TITTY TWISTER to bed without a kiss this week. And Uncle Rico almost handed a loss to last year's FFFrenzy Champ Juice, but Juice did what he always does: pulled victory from the jaws of defeat!
The top point scoring teams are listed below, and this season is much too young to care about that. However, the BEAT prizes are quite interesting. Tijuana Jets holds onto the newest prize, the BEST BEAT award, for beating BLITZ by the largest winning margin so far (54.06 points). And unfortunately for Uncle Rico, the change in the BAD BEAT award now goes to the team that WON by the smallest margin. Juice got a 1.26 point win over Rico, and that's pretty small. Let's see how long that margin can hold.
Player of the Week: Josh Allen (BLITZ) 42.76 pts.
Bench Player of the Week: Juston Fields (JESTERS) 31.52 pts.
DUD Player of the Week: Ja'Marr Chase (channel surfers) 4.6 pts.
IR Player of the Week: George Kittle (SMASH BROS) Our four weeks, minimum
I hope you liked the new team logos that Tree made for you. I really dug mine, especially the true-to-life one he made for me as Commish, taken from a real actual photo of me dealing with one of you guys trying to get in the online draft room a couple years back.
Once again, thanks for joining me again for another year of turmoil, joy, frustration, excitement, but overall a way for us to stay connected throughout the years. Now let's get ready for Week 2! Good luck, everyone!
