Caesar (Gary): Welcome, welcome, welcome to Week 10 of the BBB Games, where we look at this week's matchups and the current Power Rankings. It's a sad day in the League. One of the League's founding members, Tracy Ellegood, passed away this week. He will be dearly missed in the League. In his honor, the Commissioner has decreed that the Total Points Trophy will be forever named the Tracy Ellegood Total Points Trophy in his memory.
But that was not the only tragedy to befall the League this week. My co-host, Paul, lost his precious wife, Candi, this week due to cancer. I think we can all say, F Cancer! Our hearts, prayers, and love go out to Paul. Marriage brings two people together as one. Losing a spouse is like losing half of yourself.
The season and the show go on while we mourn for and with our fellow Leaguemates. This week, Paul remains the #1 for another week. Ashlyn falls to the bottom.
Power Rankings:
Paul
James (+1)
Jordan (-1)
David
Justin (+1)
Steve (-1)
Tracy
Linda (+1)
Gary (-1)
Dana
Travis (+1)
Ashlyn (-1)
In this week's matchups, the Commissioner should win easily over Linda, but her team has been hot. Can she pull off the upset to continue chasing the Broads division title? We hope so.
Dana's bad luck and lousy lineup decisions have plagued her all season. She hopes to break her 8-game losing streak this week by facing Gary. If she doesn't win this week, she may challenge for the longest losing streak in League history. They say it doesn't rain on the same dog all the time. Well, Dana's team has been pretty wet since Week 1.
With Miami on bye, Steve will have a tough time against David this week. Steve doesn't need the win to secure his playoff spot, but David is battling hard to see if he can be in the Top 2 in the Broads division. It's a brutal division to be in, as usual.
The Commissioner has used his powers to take control of Tracy's team. He will set his lineup based on the NFL optimizer each week for the rest of the season. It's going to be close. Both teams are without key starters. Tracy is without Kupp and Tua. Paul is without Kelce and the Eagles D. With Chase questionable with a back injury; we like Tracy's odds of getting the win posthumously.
Justin faces Jordan. Two 6-3 teams. Justin will only get stronger for the final regular season stretch when Achane returns. His team has been outstanding winning six straight. It wouldn't be the first time he had a slow start to the season to go on to win the BBB Belt. With Dak heating up, we like Justin to win his seventh straight. We don't have much faith in Young even against a poor Bears defense.
And finally, Ashlyn faces Travis in a preview of what could be the Crapper Bowl. As bad as Ashlyn's team has been, she gets Etienne back from bye this week. We thought Hockenson was DOA after Cousins season-ending injury, but Dobbs came to the rescue. We like Ashlyn's odds of breaking her six-game losing streak.
Well, that's all for this week. Hug your loved ones and tell them how much you appreciate them. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why we call it 'The Present'
May the odds be ever in your favor. Bye.
