Millburn Mustangs over Beginner's Luck?. Okay, I'll eat humble pie because I teased Coach Fehringer for losing to Coach "I know nothing about American football" Kwon last week. The truth of the matter is that Beginner's Luck is a good squad, and if not for a clutch performance by Roy Williams on Monday Night football that put me over the top, I'd have taken a loss. It's a good thing Williams came through, because Coach Kwon was already starting to talk some smack on Monday night.
Cooler than Baptists over Pablo. Not to second guess Coach Huang, but you think Anquan Boldin an his 15 fantasy points last week that you traded away would've helped your team, after getting 6 points from your 2nd and 3rd receivers? It might have been irrelevant anyway, as Cooler than Baptists were clicking on all cylinders, aided by Santana Moss' 175 yard, 1 TD game, which was overshadowed by the Redskins being the first team to lose to the Detroit lions in 19 games. And how about that game by Eric Weddle? Six tackles and an interception that he brought back for a touchdown - good for 16 points. Cooler than Baptists definitely looked like a championship-caliber squad this week.
Punch in the Face over HE HATE ME. This game would've been more competitive if Coach Song bothered to show up and manage his roster. Two players in the starting lineup of HE HATE ME didn't play last week. Also notable was Terrell Owens being completely shut out ending a streak of 185 games with a catch. I'm sure TO was mild-mannered and a good sport about all of this. Coach Lee stays undefeated with another strong showing.
Team Singletary over Midgets. As it has been in previous weeks, there's good news and bad news for Team Singletary. In a slight departure in previous weeks, Team Singletary amazingly pulled off a win, over Coach "I've been swamped since I got back from Korea, leave me alone" Kang's Midgets. Team Singletary's off the schneid with it's first win! Unfortunately, what Coach Lin really cares about is the 32-yard touchdown pass from Brett Favre with 2 seconds left that rallied the Vikings to an amazing last-second victory over the 49ers. For what it's worth, Favre's still a weasel.
ANSKY over No Yankees. This game was neck and neck going into the Monday night game, with Coach Lee's ANSKY barely squeaking by Coach Tae's No Yankees - a game which was largely competitive for two reasons: (1) ANSKY's studs Drew Brees (5+ pts) and Larry Fitzgerald (8+ pts) both had sub-par games and (2) Coach Tae decided to end his cute "NY Giants only" experiment when he realized that this league is lame enough that he actually has a good chance of winning if he takes it seriously.
Don't Tread on Me over Go Yankees. A offensive struggle for both of these teams led to a tight victory for Coach Cummings' squad. Both of these squads actually look like mine. To coin a phrase from Garrison Keillor about his fictional Lake Wobegon, we're teams that are "above average", but I just don't see as title contenders... yet.
Trail Mix over Hamsters. Don't call it an upset, despite the fact that Coach Yeoh's Trail Mix came in at 0-2 and Coach Cheng's Hamsters came in at 2-0. The reality is that Trail Mix, despite going winless in its first two games, had the third most points in the league, but just had some bad matchups. Between Peyton Manning and Maurice Jones-Drew, Trail Mix is definitely a team on the rise. Hamsters remains dangerous, with a bloodthirsty coach who continues to hover over the waiver wire like a vulture.
