The Dog League: Week 6 Preview(2017 Season)

It's time for Week 6 of the Dog League. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)






Leaping Girl

Despite being on a two game winning streak, there were plenty of changes this week for Leaping Girl. Latavius Murray was out after just one game on the bench, exchanged for teammate Jerick McKinnon, who will be an unlikely starter this week. Struggling wide receiver Amari Cooper has been dropped as well, in favor of the Patriots' Chris Hogan. And with the Seahawks defense on bye, Emma let go of Alshon Jeffery, bringing in the red hot Jaguars defense.

 Week 6 Starting Line-Up(vs Tailwaggerz)

QB Deshaun Watson
RB DeMarco Murray
RB Jerick McKinnon
WR Chris Hogan
WR DeAndre Hopkins
TE Delanie Walker
WR T.Y. Hilton
K Justin Tucker
DEF Jacksonville Jaguars


Tailwaggerz

On the flip side of the coin is Tailwaggerz, who may have completed one of the most boring weeks in all of the Dog League. They did not make a single move, choosing to stick with the roster they have. They did make a few line-up changes, as C.J. Anderson and Michael Thomas, both returning from bye weeks, check in for Le'Veon Bell and Stefon Diggs, respectively.

Week 6 Starting Line-Up(vs Leaping Girl)

QB Tom Brady
RB Lamar Miller
RB C.J. Anderson
WR Jordy Nelson
WR Mike Evans
TE Zach Ertz
WR Michael Thomas

DEF Baltimore Ravens


Ridiculous Rascals

It was a busy week for the Ridiculous Rascals, as four players were brought in. The first was Matthew Stafford, exchanged for Russell Wilson, who is out on bye. Rascal chose not to use Option C for Odell Beckham, bringing in another new starter in Pierre Garcon, who fills the spot of the struggling Jay Ajayi. Insurance at the tight end position was also acquired, in the form of Cameron Brate, who takes the spot of the injured Charles Clay, although Rob Gronkowski starts for now. Finally, the Eagles defense was jettisoned in favor of the Denver Broncos, who will face a Giants team potentially missing four wide receivers. Also, Marshawn Lynch will start in place of Ezekiel Elliott, who is on his bye week.

 Week 6 Starting Line-Up(vs Tug of War)

QB Matthew Stafford
RB Marshawn Lynch
RB Melvin Gordon
WR Brandin Cooks
WR Tyreek Hill
TE Rob Gronkowski
WR Pierre Garcon
K Kai Forbath
DEF Denver Broncos


Tug of War

There were a few moves on the cards for Tug of War, as they'll look to defend their top spot against the Ridiculous Rascals this week. With A.J. Green on bye, Julio Jones made his way back into the starting line-up. Rookie Harrison Butker was brought in at kicker, replacing veteran Dan Bailey, while Tug of War got a potential steal in Jordan Reed, added in place of Jarvis Landry.

 Week 6 Starting Line-Up(vs Ridiculous Rascals)

QB Aaron Rodgers
RB Todd Gurley
RB Kareem Hunt
WR Julio Jones
WR Antonio Brown
TE Travis Kelce
RB Leonard Fournette
K Harrison Butker
DEF Minnesota Vikings



It's first versus second this week in the Dog League, as Tug of War and the Ridiculous Rascals do battle once more. This week will end the second cycle of Dog League games in the season, so momentum, bringing all four teams closer to the half way point of the season.

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...
