(MyFantasyLeague.com Fantasy Times Sources – Nov 12, 2018) In a week 10 UFFLE intra-divisional showdown, Z-Squad squeaked by a tough Bad Attitudes team by a score of 118 to 115, extending the winning streak for Z-Squad to 4 games.
Z-Squad were led to their 3 point victory by a 22 point effort from Leonard Fournette, who snuck past the Indianapolis Colts defense for 53 rushing yards and 1 rushing TD in addition to 56 receiving yards. They also got help from a 21 point effort from Mark Ingram, who beat the Cincinnati Bengals defense for 104 rushing yards in addition to 58 receiving yards.
“Everyone counted us out before the season started,” Z-Squad coach Michael Grosz said.
Bad Attitudes were helped out in a losing cause by a 33 point effort from Ben Roethlisberger, who beat the Carolina Panthers defense for 328 passing yards and 5 passing TDs in addition to 27 rushing yards. With this performance, Roethlisberger was the number 2 ranked overall fantasy scorer for week 10.

“It just wasn’t meant to be,” Bad Attitudes coach Steve Spickenreuther said.
Adding salt to the wound, Bad Attitudes could have scored 142 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Steve Spickenreuther left key players like LeSean McCoy and his corresponding 23 points on the bench.
Bad Attitudes drew the short straw with their schedule this week, as their point total would have resulted in a win against 9 out of 11 other potential opponents in week 10.
This brings the record for Z-Squad to 7-2-1, and drops Bad Attitudes to a record of 3-7.
Coming up in week 11, the 1-9 Squishy Fuzz are at Bad Attitudes, where Bad Attitudes are an early 3-point favorite, while Z-Squad are at the 7-3 Vinny’s Gang, where Vinny’s Gang are an early 25.9-point favorite.
