As baseball season comes to a close, the topic of analytics vs. manalytics has been a hot topic. The Yankees are on a tear heading into a post-season birth due in large part to a *checks notes* turtle? Meanwhile in the NFL every fourth down attempt and extra point is charted by each organization to help them make the right decision at any moment.
We are going to explore the analytics and manalytics in this weeks edition of Frank’s Power Rankings.
Analytics
In my opinion which is clearly fact, the most important stats for fantasy football are Points For, Highest Point Total (Ceiling) and Lowest Point Total (Floor). Below I will list each teams average Points for along with their highest week and lowest week.
Blockhead Boys
Average PF: 137.06 Highest Points: 139.78 Lowest Points: 132.29
Sutton to believe in
Average PF: 123.54 Highest Points: 128.16 Lowest Points: 117.75
FRank’s Process
Average PF: 141.5 Highest Points: 150.16 Lowest Points: 129.71
Albany Fantasy Football Team
Average PF: 110.64 Highest Points: 127.39 Lowest Points: 101.34
kittles and blitz
Average PF: 153.55 Highest Points: 169.12 (nice) Lowest Points: 144.45
Chalupa Batmans
Average PF: 107.97 Highest Points: 128.83 Lowest Points: 94.53
Jafarison Jafar
Average PF: 142.52 Highest Points: 145.9 Lowest Points: 138.58
Is this my year?
Average PF: 136.39 Highest Points: 171.82 Lowest Points: 110.81
steve hasn’t won yet (false)
Average PF: 132.63 Highest Points: 155.05 Lowest Points: 115.06
Josh allen is vaccinated
Average PF: 135.21 Highest Points: 149.31 Lowest Points: 107.14
After doing all of this math I just realized I pretty much just explained standard deviation, I hope Donald is proud of me! As you can see Is this my year? has the highest point total of the year but also one of the lowest. That kind of inconsistency makes me worry for them moving forward. Other teams such as Jafar, Blockhead Boys and Kittles and Blitz have been much more consistent.
manalytics
Blockhead Boys
This team is powered by pure bourbon, a gambling addiction and some of the worst farts this world has seen. A combination like that can be very difficult for any team to overcome.
Sutton to believe in
Luckily for Josh he has found a new hobby in losing his weekly parlays (same). Without video games, which he has sworn off (and then played every day), Josh is a weak man looking for something to cling to. Could he bring this team back from the depths of despair?
FRank’s Process
The perennial punching bag has found some success which has immediately gone to his head. His hubris could be his downfall.
Albany Fantasy Football Team
ESPN and their bullshit analytics love this guy. Remember he ate that gross egg thing in the Philippines, good luck trying to rattle Greg and his squad.
kittles and blitz
Don has resigned himself to the perpetual 3rd place finish. It is entirely possible that his lack of ambition can be his Achilles heel this season and for seasons to come.
Chalupa Batmans
N/A
Jafarison Jafar
Somehow this guy scrapes by week after week with his g**** magic and a little bit of help from Kyler Murray. The Jew Magic and his Naomi experience, fantasy and otherwise, should not be overlooked.
Is this my year?
The luck of the Irish is on Don Juan’s side. At any moment he can drop 200 points without breaking a sweat. That kind of wild card is not something I am willing to fuck with.
steve hasn’t won yet (false)
Steve is good a new thing every day. Is he exhausting his good fortunes outside of fantasy football? He needs to focus this season so he does not suffer the misfortune of he who shall not be named.
Josh allen is vaccinated
I don’t know what to say about this guy. His trades are feast or famine which is the definition of manalytics. Lets see if he can make a trade to propel his team to defend their Naomi crown.
