If your season is going as well as mine, there’s a fun little way to evade your sorrow on our league homepage: The League History Tab.There you’ll find all the highs and lows of the league’s last 5 years recorded nicely for all of us to see. So I’m saving the Cliff’s Notes for a week I’ll really need it, and have decided to start each recap with some interesting notes of historical, um, history. Onto the Recaps!

Week nine is usually the week I do my annual cliff notes article, but since Jared was early on the fill-in-the-blanks (I checked) I guess I can wait a week. Instead, I’m going Fallout 3 themed, a game I’ve waited over 10 years for, which is a Post Apocalyptic RPG. In fact by the time you read this, I may be well into it after picking it up Sunday afternoon. Hey, I don’t have kids yet, which also allows me to write these bloody things each week. Anyhow, Onto the Recaps! War. War never changes…

Here we sit with half the season gone, and it’s time for the Annual Halfway Home/House Report. I know we should’ve technically done this article last week, but thanks to PG, I got a weekly sabbatical. If anyone else would like to do a recap this season, just let me know. Anyway, who’s “Halfway Home” to big money or playoffs, and who’s on their way to the “Halfway House”? Onto the Recaps!

Check out the definition of a standard summary. Colorado State University’s site says, “A summary can be as short as a single sentence (a précis or nutshell statement) or as long as 30% of the length of the original article you’re summarizing (a detailed summary). Choosing among the options for a summary means thinking about what your readers need.” I know what you’re thinking, “Who cares?” Well I do. Due to time constraints, and increasing lack of motivation, your recaps will now be a “nutshell”, “Cliff’s Notes” version of itself, because as the definition states, “It’s what the reader needs.” Onto the Recaps!

I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t have the time this week to commit to the recap (Men’s Retreat). Even though Jared’s Fill-in-the-Blanks article is weeks away, I thought I’d take the easy way out, and give you a bunch of nouns, verbs and adjectives that paint the picture of each team, and maybe give you something to fill in those blanks. Get your dictionaries ready; Onto the Recaps!
