Adam Sandler's Fine Team fall short of projections, succumb to Let's Get It in 125.96-105.34 runaway

There's no easy way to say it, Adam Sandler's Fine Team underperformed, at least based on projections, as Let's Get It cruised to a 125.96-105.34 victory. Adam Sandler's Fine Team nabbed a 23.90-point lead on Thursday behind an impressive showing from Jonathan Taylor (33 points). But it was all Let's Get It after that. They were led by the New England Patriots defense (6 Pts Allowed, 240 Yds Allowed, 3 Turnovers) and Cordarrelle Patterson (10 Rush Yds, 126 Rec Yds). Let's Get It (5-4) will look to sustain their winning ways against Andrew's Astounding Team, while Adam Sandler's Fine Team (5-4) will try to develop some positive momentum against crazy clowns.
