Week 3 Wrap

OK, it has to be quick this week as I'm traveling for work. Boston, which is such a tortured sports city with their recent loss to the Dolphins. The poor guys with their ESPN slobber, absurd number of NBA championships, and amazing recent success in baseball and football. The curse? The curse of winning?

Matchup of the week goes to Rowan (Aspire - 88.09) over Sooners (91.24). Rowan gets a nice 10 point performance from Chansi Stuckey (who?) to win it on Monday night. So one of those upsets did come home. Way to beat up on the team that's helping hurricane victims, Rowan. You must be proud.

I (Juicers - 108.28) was up by 54 or so over Mom (Rockhoppers - 90.66) on Monday morning, but Monday night was pretty crazy. Rivers and Chambers were on pace in the first half to catch all the way up. They stalled around 36 points when they got up by too much and San Diego started running the ball. Mom drops off the unbeaten group.

Mike (Zingers - 141.14) posts the high score for the week and beats Kate (teen girl squad - 96.16). Now the top 3 teams have posted the high scores the first three weeks. Brandon Marshall looks awesome again. Marshawn Lynch is a great late 1st round RB. He gets 4 players over 20 points, and an outstanding kicker performance. Kate's LT finally starts playing like a number 1 pick, but doesn't get enough help.

Lowest winning score goes to Uncle Chris (Space Cadets - 82.35) over Miah (whatever name he has now - 65.59), who posts the low score for the 3rd straight week. Braylon and Randy are not performing, and injuries and no touchdowns hurt the rest of the team. Larry Johnson finally does something though. Uncle Chris rolls with Baltimore eating Cleveland alive and MoJo looking good against the terrible Indianapolis rin D.

Brandon (Chunder Blunderes - 80.98) gets the most points from his defensive spots, and that's never a good sign. He still does ok with several decent performances, but it's not enough to take down newly married Jacob (Miracle Workers - 111.19) who gets two miracles this week. A girl willing to say yes and a good game from Addai. Just kidding, congrats my man!

Number 1 Ben (thehousebergerbuilt - 93.50) posts a more reasonable score but it's against almost the worst score in the league, Dad (ChumpBeaters - 66.29). Favre wins the Favre vs. Rodgers battle but can't win the war. How many passes did he complete to the Chargers anyway? Ben gets nothing from the RB pair that was killing people week 1. But Philly's D destroys Ben Roethlisberger to give Ben Berger the win.

Kevin (Buc-ee's Boys - 103.94) breaks the century mark against Stitch (Rust Belt - 80.49). Kevin actually player Ronnie Brown and it pays off massively. 5 TDs? 40 points from your RB? Wow. Kevin gets 57 points from his 2 RBs, and that's enough even with a lot of other crappy scores. Minnesota's D is the only other notable position. Stitch's WRs struggle and his more even scores aren't enough to get past Kevin.

Three unbeatens left. Ben has the toughest matchup against Jake, the top 2-1 team. Jake has over 100 points each week. Three teams on the schneid, even though two of them (Brandon and Stitch) have scores that would put them in the middle of the league. Miah finally does not look like an early season favorite. And neither do the Browns. Clowns. Bow-downs.

Go Cavs!
