The Dog League: Week 4 Preview(2017 Season)

Welcome to Week 4 of the Dog League season, as we will finish the first quarter of the season this week. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)






Leaping Girl

Despite being winless at 0-3 this season, the problem for Leaping Girl hasn't been a lack of talent. She has plenty, they just have yet to produce for her. With that in mind, she didn't make a single waiver move this week, only choosing to bring Delanie Walker back into the starting line-up for Jason Witten. She did also consider bringing in T.Y. Hilton and DeMarco Murray, who are both coming off of big weeks, but as they have poor match-ups against Seattle and Houston respectively, she left them on the bench.

Week 4 Starting Line-Up(vs Ridiculous Rascals)

QB Drew Brees
RB LeSean McCoy
RB Ty Montgomery
WR Dez Bryant
WR DeAndre Hopkins
TE Delanie Walker
RB Dalvin Cook
K Justin Tucker
DEF Seattle Seahawks


Tailwaggerz

Coming off of their first win of the season, Tailwaggerz only made one move, dropping the Ravens defense for the Jaguars, as they have a good match-up coming up against the Jets. Tom Brady, Stefon Diggs and Michael Thomas were all promoted to the starting line-up, with the notable drop being Mike Evans, who might have a tough game this week against the Giants. Tailwaggerz also decided to be cautious with Jordan Howard, who despite having a big game last week, is banged up and working on a short week tonight against the Packers.

Week 4 Starting Line-Up(vs Tug of War)

QB Tom Brady
RB Le'Veon Bell
RB C.J. Anderson
WR Jordy Nelson
WR Stefon Diggs
TE Zach Ertz
WR Michael Thomas
K Stephen Gostkowski
DEF Jacksonville Jaguars


Ridiculous Rascals

After taking their first loss in Week 3, Ridiculous Rascals will look to rebound, and will get the first start of the season from Odell Beckham this week. The star receiver fills the spot of Michael Crabtree, while fellow Raider Derek Carr heads to the bench for Dak Prescott. Brandin Cooks will also take a starting spot this week, coming off a big game against Houston, in exchange for Tyreek Hill, who will have a difficult match-up against Josh Norman and the Redskins defense.

Week 4 Starting Line-Up(vs Leaping Girl)

QB Dak Prescott
RB Melvin Gordon
RB Ezekiel Elliott
WR Odell Beckham
WR Brandin Cooks
TE Rob Gronkowski
RB Jay Ajayi
K Matt Bryant
DEF Philadelphia Eagles


Tug of War

The dominant front-runners Tug of War had very few decisions to make regarding their line-up this week, although there were some. Matt Ryan vacated his starting quarterback position for Aaron Rodgers, while Carlos Hyde was benched for Leonard Fournette. Although Hyde was a hero in Week 3, he comes into a difficult match-up with the Cardinals in poor health, suffering from a hip injury. Tug of War did contemplate moving Julio Jones to the bench in favor of A.J. Green, but decided the Bengals offense is too much a state of flux to be worthwhile.

Week 4 Starting Line-Up(vs Tailwaggerz)

QB Aaron Rodgers
RB Todd Gurley
RB Kareem Hunt
WR Julio Jones
WR Antonio Brown
TE Travis Kelce
RB Leonard Fournette
K Dan Bailey
DEF Kansas City Chiefs




That's it for your Week 4 Preview. Thanks for reading.

Latest Update on new puppy

As you may well know from my mom's posts, there is a handsome puppy in the house. His name is Rascal, which appropriately fits him. Before Tuesday, he'd never had much problem with the crate, something I found interesting. He'd also never experienced anxiety issues when people came and left. Then yesterday, my dad and I were standing in the driveway organizing things for a trip to Goodwill. All of a sudden, Rascal freaked out. Some history behind the newest member of our family. Rascal was a stray in Hollister, when CARE, a rescue organization, found him. At this time Rascal was estimated to be about 2 months old, the age of a puppy when you first get them. He went to another family, who had him for quite a while, around 5 months. Then, without explanation, this family moved to Ohio, surrendering Rascal. CARE once again had him and his crazy antics for about a month. Rascal's name was changed to Boots in his time with CARE, but he wouldn't answer to that name. He ...

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...
