LOD 10 Year Anniversary

      WELCOME BACK TO THE BLOG. After this week everyone will have officially played each other on the year. Weeks 10-14 will be 1 rival game each week and divisional games so its gonna get spicy. Also the trade deadline is week 11 as a reminder so only a couple weeks before no more trading. Before we dive into some of the break down here is a word from Chucks pickems.      Chucks pickems is in a tight race as 7 points separate 1st through 6th. We are hitting the half way point for the pickems after this week so we got a long season to go. Nobody has a had a perfect 10/10 week yet but I expect that to change soon as we have had some great weeks with people getting 8. As of right now the top 3 are Chuck 45, Erik 44 and Ryan and Nauch tied at 39. Are these the elite ball knowers? I mean Erik and Chuck lead their divisions, Ryan is 6-2 only behind in PF and Nauch had his team drafted by Hurtado so no shock he is 1-7 in LOD. Remember to do your pickems people. ...

      Gentleman, welcome to the official mid season review. Wings was supposed to drop with me, but he was impatient and probably off the ketamine so I forgive him. We got 7 weeks left of the 10th year of LOD regular season. This year has obviously been full of wild shit already. Divisions, have surprisingly been fun along with the new addition of rivalry weeks. Soundcloud has been a great addition to the league as he is constantly making things interesting. Just remember for those that call Soundcloud a retard, you are currently losing to him. Except Bryan and you guys called him the original retard for his trading. Now they are at the top of the league so maybe everyone else is the retard.      Here is a quick pickems update as well. Pickems run through the entire regular season of the NFL. It is still anyone's game as the difference between first and last is only 15 points. For the people that have missed putting in some morning games or full weeks the l...

El Commish is back from a blog hiatus at the request of Chuck to take a look at the state of our Ten teams and weed out the contenders versus who is probably audi 5 thou. Cover pic unrelated. Entering Week 8, playoffs become something to either prepare for or make last ditch efforts to get yourself into contention. Or, if you're really bad, find new ways to check out of the season and start selling pieces off to the guy at your apartment 3 times a week. I've tiered the teams out based on contenders, hopefuls, dark horses and gone fishin'. Along with that, a quick write-up on how their season has fared. No particular order outside of that. Contenders Gio Record: 4-3 (5 Seed) Division Record: 3-1 (2nd in Republicans) PF: 1289.8 (1st) Commissioner's Cup: P1 (5 Podiums - Average Placement 3.14) It's beginning to look a lot like the 2020 season. Gio's team has been by far the most consistent of the League this season when it comes to scoring, with only 1 game- this w...

       Another Week in the books for LOD! We saw an amazing come back by Ryan, we see the current champ continue to fall and we are seeing Gio rising from grave. Ant is heading towards the worst start in LOD history this weekend as he faces Erik and if he loses, he will officially own that record. The big blog will come next week once we are officially at the half way point so we just gonna get through this one quickly. However, we got a couple trades to break down first.  REMINDER TO DO YOUR PICKEMS! 1. Gio trades Tee Higgins to SoundCloud for Jakobi Meyers      This trade was just two guys needing new homes for a fresh start. Jakobi is in a ton of trade rumors going around the NFL as the Raiders are just awful and in shambles. Tee Higgins got an upgrade of Joe Flacco. Right now I would rate this trade as Gio getting a C and Soundcloud a B. Gio, you got Jakobi who is considered a WR1 in this offense, but you should already know in a Raiders offen...

       As Week 6 dawns, the league begins to reveal its true balance. Some have risen with precision and purpose, while one still searches for that first taste of victory. Yet in LOD, we do not despair we adapt, we endure, and we rise stronger from every battle. Even in defeat, there is wisdom. Even in struggle, there is strength. The throne is never beyond reach for those who remain steadfast.     Before we dive in to the rankings and everything I got to break down a few trades that have occurred since the last trade review. ALSO DO YOUR DAMN PICKEMS RIGHT NOW FOR THOSE THAT FORGET DO THE DAMN THING. 1. Wings has traded Jaylen Waddle to Ryan for Calvin Ridley Sept. 26th     This trade honestly was not a big deal and this was just both teams getting their guy they love to have on their team every year. However, this trade right at the time I would give Wings a B and Ryan an B. Wings, you traded for a guy that is supposed to be the #1 target for a ...

           Gentleman, first rivalry week in the books. Great idea by the Commish! You will each play your rival one more time! So, if you lost this week *cough *cough Gio, Rob, Ant, Ryan, and Wings, you will be able to get your revenge at some point this season. Now that we are essentially a quarter of the way through the season, I am going to do things a little differently from now on. Most of the time power rankings are about winning games, now everything is going to be incorporated into these rankings just like they do in the NFL. Welcome to the new LOD rankings.      Before I get started, here is your weekly reminder to do the pickems as well as making sure to fill out the tie breaker for the pickems at the bottom. For those that have been keeping up and doing it consistently I appreciate it. Wings with the Commissioners Cup and my self with the pickems are just trying to show why LOD is a great league and why we have now been around for ...
