WEEK 10 RECAP:
There were a lot of close games in Week 10, and the best of all came from perhaps the least likely source. Nick and Marc put on a show of offensive fireworks, with Nick coming out on top. Tom Brady, LaDanian Tomlinson, and Jonathan Stewart did the damage for Nick, and in the process he secured his first $20 prize of the season. Poor Marc though, his score of 134+ would have beaten any other owner this week but was only enough to make him a leading candidate to win the "most points scored by a losing owner" award at season's end. The view at the top of the standings stayed pretty much the same this week, with Dan T. holding a two-game lead in the records race and Paul holding a slight lead on points. Dan defeated the other Dan behind Peyton Manning and DeAngelo Williams, and with each week that passes where the field doesn't gain any ground, the more likely it is that Dan will become our first back-to-back champion. Uncle Joe is the only leader within striking distance at this point, and he unleashed Chris Johnson this week in a defeat of nephew Paul in another close, high scoring game. If there is any consolation for Paul, it's that he extended his points lead, if even by only a few. Speaking of close, high scoring games- how about the display put on by Tom and Chris, with Tom and Co. (including Kurt Warner and Sidney Rice) getting the job done. While low scoring, the game between Kevin and Mike was also close, with Kevin and Adrian Peterson coming out ahead. And finally, Eddie turned in an impressive performance, with Donovan McNabb and Reggie Wayne leading him to victory over Jeremie.

MATCHUP-OF-THE-WEEK
Bill Belichick vs. Grady Little. Okay, so they're not in the league, and it's not even fantasy football related. But this week's fantasy matchups don't present a lot of intrigue, so it's time to think outside the box. Little was the toast of Boston until his ridiculously stupid decision to leave Pedro Martinez in the game, and it cost the Red Sox the ALCS. Belichick was hailed as a genius until inexplicably going for it on 4th down from his team's own 28 and not making it, costing the Patriots the game and any hope of home field advantage in the AFC Championship Game. Next time you can't decide between the cheeseburger and the tuna melt, take heart in knowing your decision can't be worse than these guys'.

LEAGUE NEWS & NOTES:
-No more bye weeks. Yay!
-That sound you hear is Marc's heart breaking, as the trade deadline is this Friday, November 20, 2009. Please take note if you want to make any last-minute deals.
-Speaking of trades, Paul shipped RB Tim Hightower and RB LenDale White to Marc for RB Reggie Bush.
-Speaking of Marc, with one more loss he will become the first owner to be mathematically eliminated from title contention.
-Please be advised that there will be Thursday games each week from here on out. Keep this in mind when setting your lineups. This week it's Miami and Carolina.

THE "POOP LIST"
No one made the poop list this week. A hearty congratulations to everyone for the good work they've done maintaining their rosters and lineups.
