Week 4 finds one undefeated teams and two winless teams. Check those BYE WEEKS when making up your lineup. A semi-request has come in for a list of free-agents, perhaps on the web site. I know there was some resistance to this in the past, so I will ask before putting something like that up. Give me a 'Yes' or 'No' on a Free-Agents Listing.

  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 M. Takers take on the defending Champion Good Fellas. Both are missing some pretty big bullets this week because of the BYE. The Fellas are picking up where they left off, the Takers are still looking for their first 'W'. The Jelly Beans and Dream Team meet in a Family Feud. Both teams are hanging around .500 waiting to make their move. The Bull Dogs take on the Quiet Storm. The Bull Dogs have one loss and the Storm only have one win. Will this trend continue or be reversed? The Black & Blue Attack meet the Black Revenge in the first of two "Black Bowls" and this one means something as both of these teams are fighting for that top spot. The Sharks will try to extend the Body Shop's current misery. The Sharks are hanging around at .500. The Shop is hanging around the basement and looking for that first win.

  Spock was 3/5 this week and is 8/15 (53%) on the season. He retains top billing. Norm was 2/5 this week and is 6/15(40%) on the season. His Lines are below:

  One game was over before Monday night. The other four were still up in the air.

  The Bull Dogs pulled out the 'W' off the previously undefeated Black & Blue Attack. Both Teams were missing their number one pick. Also on both teams, the PK & ST provided half of their points. You could probably say that the difference in the game was the pickup of Collins and then the goose-egg he tossed.

  The M. Takers and the RAVENS were unable to overcome a 19 point lead against the Sharks. The Sharks were led by Manning. The Takers only got points out of Bettis and Elam on Sunday. Is it too early to use the word 'Bust' in the same sentence with Michael Vick? I think not. I never really liked Vick in our scoring format, anyway.

  The Black Revenge, Jamal Lewis and a 14 point lead were too much for the Dream Team, Trent Green and the CHIEFS to overcome. In this low scoring affair, the Revenge PK and ST were the stars of the game. The Revenge remains undefeated. The Dream Team is not out of it at .500.

  The Jelly Beans and a 14 point lead were too much for the Quiet Storm and the RAVENS to overcome on Monday night. The Beans were led by a big running attack (42 pts.) and the Storm was led by a receiving attack (33 pts.). The Storm's last second pickup of Carr paid dividends as he matched Favre in points. You can't ask for more than that from a 12:55 pickup.

  The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between Body Shop and the Good Fellas. The Good Fellas defeated the Body Shop on Monday when Matt Stover hit that 5 point FG. The Fellas were led by Moulds and Martin as McNabb cooled off a bit. The Shop continues to play Bulger over Brady, one wonders if the 0-4 start will force a change. It is bad when your back-up RB throws as many TDs as your starting QB. Speaking of that, Emmitt, where is the fountain of youth.
