The Dog League: Week 3 Review(2017 Season)

Welcome back to the Dog League. Week 3 saw Tug of War assert their dominance, and Leaping Girl and Tailwaggerz battle it out for their first win. Let's get to it.






Leaping Girl

It's all gone wrong for Leaping Girl. Although the final score was a bit closer this week, the end result was still the same, with their third consecutive loss. The team is going in the wrong direction, with this week featuring their lowest score of the year. Only two players even made it into double digits(Drew Brees and Dalvin Cook), with the rest of the team in the decent but not outstanding category. What it will take to fix this roster is beyond me, and with David Johnson out long term, this season may well be a lost cause.

Week 3 Scoring(lost to Tailwaggerz 70.7-86.6)

QB Drew Brees(20.8 points)
RB LeSean McCoy(6.9 points)
RB Ty Montgomery(5 points)
WR Dez Bryant(7.2 points)
WR DeAndre Hopkins(7.6 points)
TE Jason Witten(0.3 points)
RB Dalvin Cook(22.9 points)
K Justin Tucker(1 point)
DEF Seattle Seahawks(-1 point)


Tailwaggerz

It was a massive sigh of relief this week for Tailwaggerz, who not only got their first win, but were saved from several near fatal errors. They managed to leave 124 points on their bench( Tom Brady, Doug Baldwin, Stefon Diggs, Jordan Howard, Michael Thomas) and still managed to get the win. Most of the credit goes to Kirk Cousins, who came into the starting line-up to help carry the team to a win. The contributions of Jordy Nelson can't be understated, as his two touchdowns turned the tide on Sunday.

Week 3 Scoring(won against Leaping Girl 86.6-70.7)

QB Kirk Cousins(26.8 points)
RB Le'Veon Bell(15.8 points)
RB C.J. Anderson(4.3 points)
WR Jordy Nelson(17.2 points)
WR Mike Evans(6.7 points)
TE Zach Ertz(9.5 points)
RB Lamar Miller(6.3 points)
K Stephen Gostkowski(4 points)
DEF Baltimore Ravens(-4 points)


Ridiculous Rascals

It was a tough week for the Ridiculous Rascals, who fell behind by over 50 points on Thursday and never recovered. They didn't exactly play poorly either, with five players in double digits. They were hurt in a big way by leaving 94 points on their bench(mostly due to the contributions of Odell Beckham, Brandin Cooks and Dak Prescott). Even if they had made more of the correct decisions on who to play, I still think they lose this game. They just never stood a chance against Tug of War.

Week 3 Scoring(lost to Tug of War 83.62-134.46)

QB Derek Carr(5.22 points)
RB Melvin Gordon(13.9 points)
RB Ezekiel Elliott(15.4 points)
WR Michael Crabtree(0.7 points)
WR Tyreek Hill(15 points)
TE Rob Gronkowski(14.9 points)
RB Jay Ajayi(2.5 points)
K Matt Bryant(12 points)
DEF Philadelphia Eagles(4 points)


Tug of War

What more is left to say about the kings of the Dog League. Another dominant win for Tug of War this week, who made it look easy against the Ridiculous Rascals. They even left a total of 82 points on their bench, and there was still no doubt as to the result of the game. Almost everyone contributed something, with Travis Kelce as the only notable disappointment. It's onwards and upwards for the defending champs.

Week 3 Scoring(won against Ridiculous Rascals 134.46-83.62)

QB Matt Ryan(13.66 points)
RB Todd Gurley(32.9 points)
RB Kareem Hunt(24.3 points)
WR Julio Jones(9.1 points)
WR Antonio Brown(17 points)
TE Travis Kelce(0.1 points)
RB Carlos Hyde(21.4 points)
K Dan Bailey(4 points)
DEF Kansas City Chiefs(12 points)




3 games down, 11 more to go. Join me tomorrow as I preview Week 4 of the Dog League.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...

American Dad "Stompe Le Monde" Review

You know, I once tried to make it in musical theater. If only I had watched this episode beforehand, I would've known I needed a leather jacket to truly make it. Alas, those dreams are for a more pretentious soul than mine. "Stompe Le Monde" is a wild episode of American Dad, one that starts with Stan's previously unknown uncle dying and ends with wanton destruction of many Sonic Drive-Ins. It's a crazy a journey as it sounds, one that left me just struggling to keep up. The family to use the new inheritance to travel to New York City, but Stan quickly blows the money on the rights to Stomp, which is apparently a real musical. The whole town of Langley is very excited to see the new show, but Stan has no idea what he's doing, never once hiring a director or even rehearsing. Why this only came up literally minutes before opening is anyone's guess. The Smith Family is forced to go on the run, and are attacked by many ferocious coyotes off-screen. In ye...

American Dad "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" Review

American Dad as a show is definitely not afraid to get a little freaky, and nothing is more evident than the existence of Rogu, Roger's tumor that became a character himself in "Persona Assistant". Rogu primarily works as a character because he stays in the background, but this week, he takes a starring role in one of the weirdest American Dad episodes to date. "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" has little in the way of traditional plot structure, and can only barely be considered an episode at all. It's more a collection of funny and bizarre skits, with a few running plot points that end up forming some sort of resolution. Steve wants to become a babysitter, but Francine says he's not ready, so he needs to prove himself to her. He does that by taking care of Rogu, as Roger is off for a night of NSFW activities. Steve is instructed not to let Rogu have candy or screentime, but violates both rules almost immediately. It turns out that Rogu multiplies w...
