  This week finds three undefeated team and three teams with no wins yet. Everything seems to be going smoothly, just one reminder. When trying to acquire a Free-agent please contact Norm. I will accept transactions with your lineups on Sunday Morning. Any other time they have to go into Norm. That way we have some idea of who was trying to get a guy first.

  If you need me to mail the Notes, give me a call, I think we can avoid the postage, one way or another, if not I will mail you a copy of the notes. It is cheaper and also much quicker to go electronic. The league's url is http://swffl.50megs.com .

Key Matchups to watch this Week
  The Black & Blue Attack and the M. Takers meet in a contest between former partners. The Attack is off to a hot start. The Takers have had a bad run of tough luck. The Jelly Beans and Sharks meet in the first of two 'Cedar Lane' bowls. The Sharks are off to a disappointing start. The Beans want to repeat week 1's performance. The Quiet Storm takes on the defending Champion Good Fellas in week 3. The Storm has been in the position of trying to defend that title enough to know it is no easy task. The Black Revenge and Bull Dogs meet in a battle between undefeated teams. Both teams are off to hot starts, but one of them will have to fall this week. The Dream Team takes on the Body Shop in week 3. The Shop is searching for their first 'W'. The Dream Team would like some QB points.

  Spock wins the first week of the battle of the Oddsmakers going 2/5 (40%) and his Locks appear above. Norm was 1/5 (20%) and his Lines (actually my estimates) are below:

MT -3 BB (99)     BR -2 BD (88)
JB -1  S (95)     DT -8 BS(104)
GF -4 QS (98)

  Two games were over before Monday night. Another one was more or less over. The final two were still up in the air.

  The Dream Team notched their first 'W' of the season against the Sharks. The Dream Team was led by Holt and Barlow. The Dream Team has been in search of some QB points as well as that first 'W'. The Sharks have had decent numbers both weeks (over 40), but just have not found the 'W' yet.

  The Bull Dogs remain undefeated by beating the winless Body Shop. The Bull Dogs were led by Chris Brown and DeShaun Foster and still had Moss waiting in the wings on Monday night. The Dogs had a 0 from Palmer and had an 18 on the bench form Jake Delhomme. It would not surprise me if Jake winds up grabbing that starting slot. The Shop has some QB problems of it's own as Brady keeps outperforming Bulger. The Shop is 0-2 and I sense some panic in the Shop HQ.

  The Black Revenge and a 31 point lead were too much for the Good Fellas and McNabb to overcome on Monday night. The Revenge was led by Brooks and James. They also got decent numbers throughout the starting lineup. The Fellas number one pick came up small, but he was nicked up a bit.

  The Quiet Storm, Terell Owens and a 24 point lead were too much for the M. Takers, Onterio Smith, Marcus Robinson and the VIKINGS. The Storm was led by the RAVENS and Carney (which is probably not who you want leading your team). The Storm had a healthy stash of bench points as well. The Takers were led by Vick who has more 100 yard rushing games than 300 yard passing games. Priest returned to Earth this week.

  The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Black & Blue Attack and the Jelly Beans. The Jelly Beans and a 20 point lead were not enough hold off the Attack, Culpepper, Westbrook, Akers and the EAGLES on Monday night. The Attack managed to get points from all their starters on Sunday, which kept them in striking distance for some Monday night madness. The Beans were led by Tomlinson, Vinatieri and Ward. Favre was a little on the low side and Griffin dropped out of the clouds. It brings us back to "Was week 1 the fluke or week 2 with regards to Griffin?" My guess is that the Jags defense is pretty good and the Chiefs defense isn't, so Griffin is probably somewhere in between Week 1 and Week 2.
