Week 2 Awards: SMRT Moves, Dumb Benches, and a Whole Lotta Bourbon

Two weeks into the season and the league is already serving up equal parts brilliance and buffoonery. Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and let's hand out some awards nobody's putting on a mantel.

Lucky Win of the Week

I am so SMRT, D'OH somehow escaped Week 2 with a win over Hands Holzberger, 83.78-77.02, despite scoring below the week's average. Doesn't matter how you get there, folks - a win's a win, even if it smells a little funny.

Bad Beat of the Week

2 Yards Under put up 103.38 points - above the week's average - and still walked away with an L, falling to BourbonBandits 103.38-109.06. Sometimes the fantasy gods just aren't in a generous mood.

High Score of the Week

Foosball is the Devil torched the league for 154.8 points, the top mark in Week 2. Somebody set their lineup and then some.

Low Score of the Week

Even Bauce Can Beat WV limped to a league-worst 69.52 points. Rough week to be a Bauce.

Bench Blunder of the Week

Bush League rolled out Jaxson Dart at QB, who mustered a whopping 0.8 points, while Patrick Mahomes sat on the bench quietly racking up 31.98. That's not a lineup decision, that's a cry for help.

Power Rankings

Blended from record, total points, and recent form - here's where the league actually stands.

1. Foosball is the Devil - Undefeated, leads the league in scoring, and riding the hottest form in the building. The rest of the league should be worried.
2. Corn Shoughers - Also 2-0, but scoring and form both sit a notch below the top dog. Winning ugly is still winning.
3. 2 Yards Under - The bad-beat victims of the week, but the underlying numbers say this team is quietly dangerous - second in points, second in form.
4. BourbonBandits - Snuck out a win over 2 Yards Under and sit right in the middle of the pack, steady but unspectacular.
5. Hands Holzberger - Middle of the road across the board after dropping a close one to a team that shouldn't have beaten them.
6. American Idol - 2-0 on paper, but dead last in both points and recent form. This is a record built on smoke and mirrors.
7. titysprinkles2 - Hovering around league-average everywhere. The definition of fine.
8. Kardiac Kids - Same story - not bad, not good, just there.
9. Bush League - 0-2 despite respectable points and form, not helped by benching a 32-point quarterback for a 0.8-point one.
10. I am so SMRT, D'OH - A lucky win couldn't save this team from bottom-third points and form. The name might be sarcastic after all.
11. Even Bauce Can Beat WV - 0-2 and just posted the league's lowest score of the week. Not exactly beating anybody right now.
12. Stinky Bastards - Dead last across record, points, and form. Living up to the name.

Power rankings blend record, total points, and recent form; recent form's weight grows as the season goes on but never becomes the majority factor.
