Planet united come up short of predictions, lose to Fools and Horses in 101-76 landslide

There's no sugarcoating it, Planet united underperformed, at least based on projections, as Fools and Horses cruised to a 101-76 win. There wasn't much drama in this one, as Fools and Horses leapt out to a 78-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind standout performances from Jaylen Waddle (19 points) and Myles Gaskin (16). Russell Wilson (22 points) and Justin Tucker (13) were the leading scorers for Planet united in defeat. This marks the first time this season Fools and Horses have knocked off Planet united, after falling 121-89 in their last matchup. Fools and Horses (7-5) will look to keep it rolling against Shalabajzeri, while Planet united (3-9) will face Iz Čikaga moji... in an effort to right the ship.

The problem this week isn't exactly rocket science, Planet united. Starting Chris Godwin in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll consider this to be an opportunity to get better and agree that it's not going to happen again?
