Congratulation to Bellepue for amazing move.

恭喜发财
Sorry I haven't been blogging lately. Actually this is the longest time I didn't blog since I started. A lot of stuff have been happening in real life that I simply didn't have the time and thoughts to blog.
Two weeks ago I had what I called a "mid-life crisis" in fantasy for about a week. During that week I rarely check fantasy news and didn't follow much games. I suspected part of it was because of my 5 losing streak and a bad loss I had with Curse Breaker in weekly Comla match. The crisis also explained why I haven't been blogging lately.
Long Version: It was down to last game. I had my 3 spurs Duncan, Manu and Parker. Curse Breaker had J.R. Smith. Should be easy right? Except J.R. Blew up in the 2nd half and even so in 4th Q. Popovich decided to bench all my 3 Spurs player even Spurs was only up by 10 with 2 minutes to go. In those 2 minutes, Smith managed to get 2 steals + 2 assist. I was still managed to hang on the lead with only 0.5 fpoints. It was then the last basket of the game was a dunk by ... who else? but J.R.Smith himself, which made Curse up by 2.5 fpoints. The closest winning ever in this season.
Short Version: Bad Luck!
So let me summarized what had happened in both leagues since my last blog...
a. Adawn is still the leader in both leagues
b. Gepeng finally broke his 2-1 Win/Loss pattern after 14 weeks
c. iWinner won the the recent hot waiver player DeMarcus Cousins with $56. Which famously quoted from ConCarne
"Si pupu got se pupu"
d. iFoe had been the most active in trades. The last 5 players traded were all done by iFoe. Trading 5 players all for the sake of 3 pointers.
First it was Aldridge for Granger
then Green for Casspi
then Calderon for Richardson
and the latest Harris + J.R. Smith for Carter + Morrow
All those trades are sure going to bump iFoe 3PM except for the Green for Casspi trade, where Casspi were immediately drop just 1 day after traded completed, even though iFoe wasted his waiver to pick up Green just 1 day before the trade.
e. Last but the biggest news of all. ConCarne finally have the approval from the old owner to take over Bellepue team in almoc. We like to wish Kendean farewell from Almoc League, and we like to welcome Edu as the new owner of Bellepue. Within the first day, he has added 4 players and 2 more players in the 2nd day. With so many other managers keen to trade with the new owner of Bellepue. We will see how the new owner handle the new league, the FA and the trade offer. Welcome to ALMOC Kodoe!
PS: And happy chinese new year to you all. May the bunny year bring you better position in fantasy ranking. Gong Xi Fa Chai 恭喜发财

Elizabeth Lambert
This happen over a year ago but if you follow soccer in US, you'll probably heard of her name before, She got famous for the wrong reason. See the following videos for details
Seem normal, looks decent and actually quite good for a soccer female athlete. But wait... You aint see nothing yet. Well it's easier to see the following video to explain what made her so famous.
Worst part: She only got one yellow card for the match, and her team won.
Quote from of the popular comments on the youtube
"The referee f**ked her before the game, or he is the most stupid referee in the world. It can't be both."

THE TRADE
It's Finally happen and official... this trade will be remember in the history of our league. The team Wasabi Bistro finally make a trade, it was his first trade ever since I joined this league 4 years ago. A source who wished to be unnamed, even added this may be Wasabi first trade since playing fantasy basketball, although I cannot clarified on that fact whether it's accurate or not.
Rotoduck is the team that managed to pull it off. Congrats to both team and good luck for Jrue in Wasabi team and Mcgee in Rotoduck team.
This is Rotoduck 2nd trade of the season and we hope there will be more trade to come for team Wasabi.

Wi's Crystal Ball - Week 10 - Special COMLA Report
COMLA:
We have officially enter the mid-season of comla, where there have been 10 matches out of 20 matches before the playoff. Let's do a deep analysis on how each of the member perform so far:
Gepeng 7-3 / 15155.5
The strongest candidate so far. He co-lead the league with 7-3 record and leading the league in points with 15155.50. He also managed to be 3 times weekly winner, the most out of everyone. Gepeng record is W-W-L-W-W-L-W-W-L-W, noticed how he always won twice then lose 1 game.
a d a w n 7-3 / 14982
The "toothless" adawn seem to be able to keep up with Gepeng. He was 2 times weekly winner and managed to hold the highest point record so far with 2026 fpts in week 5. Together with Gepeng, they have been leading since week 1 with the most win. Dont mess with the teeth!!!
GeNNoSuKe 7-3 / 14507.5
He shared the top place in the league with the other two teams that mention previously. His team never led the league in any week nor the record for most point, however he does have impressive 5 winning streak that the Gepeng and adawn didn't accomplished. He also lead the league with the most FA pickup, the title which he have held from many years ago.
ConCarne> 6-4 / 14428.5
This old veteran disguised as a rookie certainly managed to outwit most of his competitors. He was one of the top team with the best winning record in week 9 which he was the top finisher in that week, only to lost his last game so he finish with 6-4. His aggressive style with 2 for 1 trade for Kaydee seem risky at the time, however seem to pay off now. He lead everyone with the hours spend in atdhe.net. A true force to be reckon with.
Matoa 6-4 / 14099
"Believing in yahoo ranking" was his draft strategy, the same strategy that have gotten him so far whether he like to admit it or not. He is currently tied at 4th place <OMFG, 4th again???> He always believed he was cursed and still under the mysterious COMLA curse. Hopefully this will be the year he can finally beat the curse. Matoa was our last top performance in week 10.
Curse Breaker 6-4 / 13622.5
Started the season with 0-3 record, then impressively won 5 straight games. In fact he and GeNNoSuKe are the only team who have won 5 straights games. On the past 7 games, he only lost once. He may not shared the best record...yet, but his team is the hottest team right now.
Shazaam 5-5 / 13472
The only team to finish with 0.500 record, exactly 5 wins and 5 losses. He claimed his team are unlucky to always have someone injured. However it feel like there is something that this is team hiding. His whole team believe in his strategy which was to stay behind the radar and stay underdog. Not only that, they believe in his philosophy: the balance of ying & yang, the zen harmony, the perfect balancing or whatever $)(|7 you called it. To understand this philosophy further, just checked out his W-L record: W-L-W-L-W-L-W-L-W-L. Impressively unimpressive. Coincidence? Maybe, or maybe that's what he wanted you to believe.
The Senior's Team 4-6 / 14671.5
His love for the old player & old team like the Spurs (4 spurs players) managed to make him the top 3 highest scorer in the league, only behind Gepeng and adawn. However that strategy seem to get him the tied buttom 3 placement with 4-6. Quite an irony. His tactics of putting most eggs in one basket (or in this case the Spurs) seem to be an un-orthodox tactics. Playoff or not will be determine on how Spurs finish this season.
iWinner 4-6 / 13793.5
Started the season very strong with 3-0 record, however he then loss 5 straight. He has only won 1 game in the past 7 games. In fact he is the total mirror opposite of Curse Breaker team. If he can manage repeat his performance in early season, this team should finish the season with a strong performance. A strong recent FA pickup of Hedo could set his team on the right direction again.
Superduck 4-6 / 13769.5
Only managed to win 1 game out of the first 6 games. However managed to turn around his team since week 7 and have won 3 out of 4 games. Not many people noticed that Superduck have been the top performer of the week Twice!!! Again only Gepeng and adawn had same or better accomplishment. You never want to face the team who are a repeated top performer of the week. A true dark horse in this tournament.
Gunners 3-7 / 12773
Started the season by winning 3 out of 4 games, but then plagued with injuries and misfortunes and losing the last 6 games. If he can re-capture the winning formula which he started the season, he still have a good chance to get into the playoff.
Archaeonz Suns 1-9 / 13314
Mathematically he still have a chance to get into the playoff, if he won 7 out the the remaining 10 teams, although that can be an extremely difficult challenge. I wanted to say more positive things... but can only thought one final thing to say:
"Do good karma before draft day for 2011-2012 season so you don't get the last draft position in Both leagues AGAIN"
ALMOC:
