Qutane must’ve been riding high on the hog last night, winning what should’ve been an easy 1 vs 6 matchup against the Raging Alcoholics (who should be the 2 seed, but who’s counting?) by fighting off a solid night from Frank Gore.
But a closer look at the final score of 59.41 to 55.55, shows that Frank Gore’s offensive fumble recovery for a TD is not being counted, and would push Qutane to a 61.55 to 59.41 loss, and a win for the 6th seed. (But still a loss for the 2 seed vs the 65 point score of 3 seed Quimby, Hypothetical Quince Bowl!)
A look at the Constitution leaves a little room for interpretation, since Gore did not recover the fumble in the endzone, he did recover it for a TD with no change of possession. How will the commish rule?
Rule 1; Section 1; Article 4 note B:
However, where an offensive player recovers a fumble in the endzone, absent multiple changes of possession, the offensive player (not the D/STs unit) is credited with a touchdown.
(A quick survey of other fantasy leagues shows Gore with TD points, ESPN,Yahoo, and others…)
Shades
While I guess it’s in my best interest to have the Alcoholics lose because of SuperQuince standings, I believe Gore has to paid his TD.
