Marlon Scott
Issue date: 10/8/08 Section: Online Headlines
Weeks 3-5 of the NFL are in the books and the fantasy football competition in the Baltimore County League on Facebook is heating up. The point totals have dropped, but the trash talk has escalated between Devon Robinson and Marlon Scott.
Which player has actually earned the right to brag the last two weeks? Here are the results.
Devon's Beaumont City Aggies: 2-3, Rank 10 of 14
Week 3: Aggies 43 Muckrackers 76
Week 4: Aggies 59 Ballzdeep 73
Week 5: Aggies 83 GridIronGovs 100
After a fast 2-0 start, Devon has hit hard times. Injuries and byes have decimated his roster and he has dropped from first place in the league to tenth. The most painful loss was week five to Marlon. Despite scoring his highest total in three weeks, it was not enough to take down Marlon's GridIronGovs. He is still taking shots from that week. With the trading deadline looming Devon may have to consider a move if his players don't recover from injuries soon. Tony Romo can only carry him so far.
Marlon's GridIronGovs: 3-2, Rank 8 of 14
Week 3: Govs 78 Ballzdeep 77
Week 4: Govs 48 Tip Drill 102
Week 5: Govs 100 Aggies 83
Marlon is still in the middle of the pack after five weeks. But he doesn't mind because he is ahead of Devon. The first bye week was brutal, but Marlon recovered nicely and has found success picking up players off waivers. Now that he has bragging rights over Devon, the question now is : Can he put together more than one win in a row?
Devon and Marlon will not face each other head-to-head again unless they make the playoffs. The good news is, despite their ranking, they are only two games behind the first place DK's Dream Team. The bad news is the Dream Team is still undefeated. In two weeks, it will be the mid-point of the regular season. Both Devon and Marlon will be receiving grades in an upcoming mid-season report card.
