Sunday's report


Another week, another time we're talking about a record or near-record by the Fresh Fish.

This time, the Fish went out and posted an obscene week of 292 points. The FBLG record for points in a week is 298. If R.A. Dickey had posted a win on Sunday, that might have done it.

Still, the Fish scored more than twice the weekly total of five of the other nine owners in Week 12, including the second-place Misfits. That pushed the Fish's overall lead to 340 points, and more than 700 over the last-place Arbitration Losers.

Oh, and the Fish pushed their head-to-head record to 11-1, clinching a berth in the playoffs.
