Game of the Week
Grown man's poop 108.36 vs. Burning Sensations 91.86
There was only one game this week where the margin of victory was less than 40 points*, and it was between the 7th and 9th place teams. I guess Poop was able to hang around in the standings and extend its season? Their situation hasn't changed since last week, their only shot is still to keep winning due to their low point total. I guess this was a knock out blow to Burning Sensations postseason hopes? They are two games back of 6th place, and the only one of the contending team with less points scored is the aforementioned Poop.  All that being said, this just doesn't feel game of the week worthy to me.

Hot Takes
- Here comes Adam's Legit Team. They have felt a little like a forgotten team for most of the season, but this has been mostly due to bad luck. Even though the beat down they issued to Sack Lunch gets them just back to an even record**, they have the 4th most points in the league, and with a game against the 10th place team in the league coming up, and two of the teams immediately ahead of him playing each other, he could be ready to make a move.
-  One side effect of so many blowouts is that many of the contending teams ended up scoreboard watching and matching up against teams that they aren't even playing. For the first time all season, Sack is not in one of the top two spots, which are now taken by Bob and DBT, which started Week 10 with the same record and Bob having scored 1 more point on the season. This, in essence left Bob and DBT playing against each other to see who would take the top spot in the standings. 
- Bush League made a statement this week, reeling in Fort Dix to even record wise, and jumping Dix in the standings due to point scored. Most weeks a 130 point effort from a contending team would be more newsworthy, but this team is in a good spot heading into the home stretch. For Dix it's a little more dicey, as his margin for error just keeps getting smaller.
-There is a monster match-up waiting for us in Week 11 between Bob Bruton and Sack Lunch, who are 2nd and 3rd respectively going into the week. Sack has run into some bad fortune the past two weeks with a combine 324 points against. These two teams have almost identical point projections for Week 11. Will Sack rebound and take back his spot in the standings, or will Bob make sure his Bieber-like downward spiral continues?

That's all for this week, horrible luck to all of you in Week 11***

*I rounded up.
**They also came within 4 points of breaking the league record for points scored in one week.
***What in the Ass, it's already Week 11?!
