SPOCK'S LOCKS FORMAT - Favorite w/Spread on top - Underdog w/Under-Over in parenthesis

  Week 2 finds 3 undefeated teams and 3 winless teams. The commissioner's office is still in a bit of a funk, but more about that later. Is it just me or is the transaction rate incredibly high so far this year. The highest scoring team is barely above the Money Line and the second highest scoring team is still looking for a win. Maybe Mike had a point at the pre-draft meeting.

  Don't forget to keep an eye on the old web site (http://swffl.50megs.com). It has updated archives and historical records. I will also add some web-exclusive materials there, like the complete 2013 Draft analysis, as I develop them. Anybody with ideas, send them to me and I will see what I can do.

Key Matchups to watch this Week

  The Body Shop and Good Fellas meet in a battle of an undefeated team and the highest scoring team. The Jelly Beans will also try to remain undefeated by taking on the 1-1 Black & Blue Attack. The Fightin' Irish will try and climb above the .500 mark and maybe the Money Line by keeping the Dream Team losing streak going. The Bishops of Battle will try to stay on top of the heap by beating the Money Takers. The Young Gunz will try to notch that firs "W" in the bid to 3-peat against the also winless Roxborough Wranglers.

  Spock's Lock's appear above. Norm's Lines (estimated by me) appear below, let the competition begin:

GF -1 BS (255)     MT -1 BI (245)
BB -2 JB (252)     RW -2 YG (231)
DT -9 FI (265)

  All 5 games had some Monday Night Madness (some more technical than practical).

  The Jelly Beans and 43.1 points proved to be too much for the Roxborough Wranglers, Maclan, Nicks and Parkey on Monday night. The Beans were led by Crabtree as the Beans just barely cleared triple-digits but still managed to win. Must have been that vaunted Beans Defense. Brees let the Wranglers in the loss as they did not clear 85 points for the week. A Sammy Watkins start over Garcon would have left both teams at 1-1, but as it went down the Beans are undefeated and the Wrnaglers are still looking for their first "W".

  The Fightin' Irish, Sproles, Wayne and a 12.7 point lead were too much for the Money Takers, and Ertz to overcome on a Monday night. The Irish were led by Dalton, Sproles, Julio Jones, and Sanu in what would wind up being a 34.2 point win. Peyton and Percy put up nice numbers for the Takers in the loss. Starting Gates over Amendola would have kept the Takers undefeated and had the Irish still searching for their first "W". But, in the end, both teams are at 1-1 and looking up at the Money Teams.

  The Bishops of Battle, Cooper and Hilton held off the Young Gunz and Allen on Monday night. The Attack held on to the "W", first place and put another big crimp in that 3-peat plan of the Young Gunz. The Bishops were led by Rodgers as they continue their perfect season so far. Only Dez managed to surpass the 20 point barrier for the Gunz. The Gunz had some help on the bench but not enough that it would have made a difference.

  The Good Fellas, Foles and McCoy eventually overcame a 23 point led by the Dream Team on Monday night. The Fellas eventually not only took their first "W", they also snagged the Week 2 Helmet. If the Eagles continued to just kick FGs the Dream Team would have had the helmet and their first "W". The Fellas were led by Bernard and Nelson. The Dream Team was led Foster, Edelman, Cobb, Bailey and the PATRIOTS. It is tough putting up enough points to beat every team in the league but the one you are playing. Kaepernick, Ricchardson and Cook would have reversed all of that.

  The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Body Shop and the Black & Blue Attack. The Shop and 46.6 point lead were just barely enough to hold off the Attack, Luck and Vinatieri. The Shop was led by Murray and Graham. The Attack was led by Luck in the loss. A Hill start over AJ Green would have put the Attack as 2-0 instead of the Body Shop. That is 2 very close calls for the body Shop (less than 10 point wins). The Shop may be the only undefeated team in fantasy land that is also in need of steady supply of antacids. There is a rumor that Mr. Met has been hospitalized due to high-anxiety.
