  The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Roxborough Wranglers and the Good Fellas. The Wranglers and 16.7-point lead barely held off the Fellas and Nabers on Monday night. Nabers did Ok, but if he could have stayed in bounds after the catch on that one deep pass, we would have had a very different story today. The Wranglers were led by Chase and Pitts (yet another TE). The Fellas were led by Williams and Kittle (yes - another TE) in the loss. The Fellas only path to victory would have been by staring Dak over Geno. So the Wranglers have won 4 in a row and the Fellas have dropped 4 in a row. Definitely, 2 teams traveling in different directions. Maybe they Fellas should take to the Assassins, but if they do, I warn them to tread carefully. Trader Toast do not have a “Skull and Crossbones” flag at every draft for no reason.

Pre-Game Hype:

The Roxborough Wranglers will try to keep that top spot by defeating the Good Fellas.

  The Body Shop and a 45.6-point lead proved to be too much for the Black & Blue Attack, Pickens and Boswell on Monday night. Boswell and Pickens put up nice numbers, but the attack need some of these almost TDs by Pickens to actually count. The Shop was led by MVP Cousins and Bijan. The Attack was led by Mixon in the loss. Their best lineup would have just made the loss even more tragic.

Pre-Game Hype:

In a match-up of money teams the Black & Blue Attack will take on the Body Shop.

  The Croatans notched their 2nd “W” of the year by taking out the Dream Team. The Croatans were led by Action Jackson and Achane as they eked out 2.8-point victory. The Dream Team was led by newly acquired Joash Allen. Unfortunately, he was on an island this week. His rookie teammate Coleman would have given him a “W” in his first game as a Dream Teamer. Now the pre-trade lineup featuring Nix and Sr. Brown over Allen and Williams would have also kept the Dream Team winning streak going. At any rate maybe the Drema Team QB issue is finally resolved – I hope.

Pre-Game Hype:

The Dream Team will try to keep up with the 4-3 crows by defeating the Croatans.

  The Black Assassins fresh off the trading block, won their contest with the Money Takers. New Assassin, Bo Nix led the way for the Assassins with help from Gibson, Swift and Otton (in national TE Day). The Takers were led by Daniels and Harrison as their mini 2 week winning streak came to an end. There was not a whole lot of help on the bench. Obviously, the last-minute trading by the Assassins ruined the Takers week of game planning.

Pre-Game Hype:

The Black Assassins will try to jump over the money line by defeating the Money Takers.

  The Fightin’ Irish and a 112.3-point lead easily held off the Jelly Beans and the STELLERS on Monday night. The STELLERS even threw in a punt return TD, but triple digits was way too much to hope for. The Irish snagged their first helmet of the year largely due to the efforts of Hurts, Lamb, Jacobs, the Slim Reaper and Kelce (yes another TE). The Beans failed to field a 20-point starter and there was not a lot of help on the bench.

Pre-Game Hype:


In a battle of 4-3 teams the Jelly Beans will take on the Fightin’ Irish.
