Famasty Week 6 Recap — The Shark Tank Opens for Business 🦈
Welcome back to the Awesome League, where Week 6 delivered some big scores, a few tough beats, and one matchup that had us all on the edge of our seats. The snacks were flowing, the points were dropping, and — spoiler alert — the sharks were very much in the water this week. Let’s get into it!
🎯 Match of the Week: Golfish likes sharks22 vs.
Final Score: 114 – 102
This was the game everyone was watching, and Mayes delivered. Golfish likes sharks22 came in hungry (and we don’t mean for snacks), and the difference-maker on his side was none other than Christian McCaffrey, who put up a monster 31 points to keep that shark tank well-fed. Malik Nabers wasn’t far behind, hauling in 29 points and making sure Uncle Brian’s squad had no room to breathe.
Over on , Matthew Golden showed up bright with 22 points, doing everything he could to close the gap. The Chiefs D/ST chipped in 14 more, and for a moment it felt like the Chicken might just cross the road after all. But between a few quiet starters and some unfortunate goose eggs from the bench (Amon-Ra St. Brown, Travis Etienne Jr. — we see you), Brian’s team couldn’t quite reel in the fish. Final: Golfish 114, Chicken 102.
Mayes improves, the shark flag flies, and the road remains uncrossed. Better luck next week, Uncle Awesome!
🏈 Around the League
The rest of Week 6 kept things lively from top to bottom:
-
(137) def. (107) — Kelsey put up the week’s highest score! Jonathan Taylor (21 pts) and Jordan Love (20 pts) led the charge, while LaLa’s couldn’t quite keep up despite Jaxson Smith-Njigba and Bhayshul Tuten each dropping 25. Ouch — 107 points and still a loss. That’s a tough week.
-
(132) def. (127) — The Squirrels finally got that W they needed! Isaiah Likely and C.J. Stroud both put up 23–24 points each to power Dustin’s squad. Meanwhile G’s snack cabinet couldn’t save him — James Cook III (24) and Jayden Daniels (21) were tasty picks, and Tyler Shough (27 points off the bench!) would have been really nice in the lineup. A heartbreaker for , but the Squirrels are celebrating.
-
(102) def. (82) — Mad Man keeps the fairy tale alive! Colston Loveland (19 pts) and Brock Purdy (17 pts) did the heavy lifting. Traven’s team had Bryce Young go for 20, but with Jahmyr Gibbs and Tyler Warren both stuck on the bench with zeroes, it was a tough road. Cinderella’s still dancing! 🕺
-
Best Juan (94) def. MC ALL DA WAY (85) — Brandon gets the W as Emeka Egbuka (18) and Ashton Jeanty (16) powered up Best Juan. For Merrick’s squad, Kenneth Walker III was outstanding at 28 points, and Josh Allen added 18 — but Cam Skattebo and DJ Moore combined for zero, and that’s hard to overcome.

📋 Commissioner Notes
The waiver wire was busy this week — nearly every team made moves. Here are the confirmed Week 6 transactions to know:
Notable pickups included Breece Hall to , Marvin Harrison Jr. to MC ALL DA WAY, Xavier Worthy to Golfish likes sharks22, C.J. Stroud and Isaiah Likely to Bush Diving Squirrels, Jordan Love to , DK Metcalf also to , Chuba Hubbard to , Woody Marks and Pat Freiermuth to Best Juan, and Tony Pollard to . Managers were clearly active and adjusting — which means Week 7 lineups could look very different from what we saw today.
Results are still pending final confirmation, so keep an eye out for any adjustments.
Until Next Sunday…
Week 6 is in the books! The Squirrels finally got their W, the sharks are circling, Cinderella is still at the ball, and Rhino put up the biggest score of the week. Whether you won or lost today, remember — it’s a family league, and there’s always next Sunday. 🏈❤️
