TPD cannot catch a break. The horrible circumstances that have plagued this franchise during this league's history are truly remarkable. Last week they tied, but it should have been a win if not for his opponent's kicker scoring 13 points in the 4th quarter of MNF. There are a few other managers in the MFFL with bad luck, but no one has the same ridiculous circumstances attached to it like TPD. He is in dire need of a win and week 9 brings about some flash backs to last season.

Similarly to this season, week 9 last year was a big week for this franchise. They were playing Tavon on the road after suffering another defeat at the hands of bad circumstance. That week 9 match-up had Julio and Evans going on Thursday night. It was the turning point of the season as both studs balled out and TPD crushed his opposition. The same scenario repeats, as TPD faces Tavon in week 9 needing a win to salvage the season. Can history repeat itself?

Crazier still is the fact that TPD has the 3rd most points in the league,  just like last year at this time. How is it that he is continually put in bad situations even while producing every season? It is a troubling thought, but an inspiring thought is remembering how well TPD played after this pivotal week last season en-route to a title. TPD aims to do it again, and he remains the most scarred ready team for moments like these, though he wishes one day he will not have to grind it out every season.

It is a homecoming parade in this week's starting lineup. TPD traded for many players that had left the organization earlier in the season. He is extremely excited to have all of them back. Brady is on bye but TPD has a weird confidence in Hundley this week. He expects Brett to shatter the public's low expectations. This week concludes the trading season of 2017, and he feels happy with how the lineup has shaken out after some devastating injuries early on. He knows what a winning team looks like and he feels he stacks up with most any team moving forward, though nothing is for certain. He has played better this season than his record indicates, again, but hopefully this week can be the start of something special just like a year ago.

Always special is the NASTY. There comes a time each season, typically in the 2nd half, in which the NASTY goes completely bonkers, leading to historical moments no other team can match in this league. The NASTY continues to brew towards such an occasion. When it unleashes, the whole league will feel it. "OH MY NASTY."

Player Profile: Michael Thomas
Welcome back Sir Thomas. The 11th overall pick of the 2017 MFFL draft, selected by TPD, is remarkably back on TPD's roster for the stretch run. It is a feeling of warmth and happiness shared by both parties of the reunion. Thomas has been consistently good all season, but being back on TPD will lead to greatness no doubt. This is a NASTY homecoming and a NASTY match-up awaits this budding star.
