The Dog League: 2021 End of Year Update + 2022 Plans

Nearly 5 months of competition ran down to one final week, where Rascal hunted down his first Dog League Championship, going against a formidable Rare Woofs behemoth. In this post, I'll take a look at how each team finished, and reveal a few planned alterations for The Dog League moving forward. 




Final Standings

1. Ridiculous Rascals

2. Rare Woofs

3. Canine Comets

4. Tailwaggerz

5. Growlers

6. Tug of War

7. Leaping Girl

8. Bark Force


Congratulations to Rascal for finally putting it all together and capturing his first Dog League title, crushing Rare Woofs' hope for a three-peat behind a 50 burger from Ja'Marr Chase. The Comets and Leaping Girl both survived late flurries to win their respective games, as Najee Harris (Tailwaggerz) and the duo of Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams (Bark Force) each came with an eyelash of pulling off historic comeback wins. Growlers, meanwhile, dominated on the strength of big games from Rashaad Penny and the Saints defense. These standings will determine next year's draft order, so keep them in mind when June rolls around. 



What's Next?

The Dog League now goes on hiatus, but I remain busy tinkering with the league's rules and scoring systems, in order to freshen up the experience for next season. My initial thoughts for next year surround moving to Half-PPR scoring, which will increase the importance of running backs, and balance out the divide between skill players. Should that switch occur, I would add a 3rd starting running back to the lineups, which will allow overall team scoring to remain high. We'll see if that change is implemented, but I can guarantee that the league will have at least one fresh idea at beginning of next year.

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...
