The Dog League: Week 15 Preview(2017 Playoffs)

It's a different look for these preview posts for the Dog League this week, as we enter the playoffs. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)






Game 1: (1) Tug of War vs (4) Tailwaggerz


Tailwaggerz

It was a very nice, although ultimately useless, win for Tailwaggerz last week, as they handed Ridiculous Rascals their third loss in a row. The games don't come much bigger than this, as they square off with the peaking Tug of War in the first round of the playoffs. Heading into this week, they made two moves, adding Kenyan Drake for Adrian Peterson and the Ravens defense for the Patriots. Both will start, with Drake replacing Robby Anderson, while the returning Zach Ertz takes his starting spot back from Evan Engram.

Week 15 Starting Line-Up

QB Tom Brady
RB Le'Veon Bell
RB Jordan Howard
WR Mike Evans
WR Michael Thomas
TE Zach Ertz
RB Kenyan Drake
K Wil Lutz
DEF Baltimore Ravens


Tug of War

The defending champions of the Dog League got some extra silverware last week, capturing their second regular season championship. The celebrations cannot last long, as they play Tailwaggerz this week, with even one mistake having the potential to take them out. Tug of War will bring Kareem Hunt back into the starting line-up this week, as he replaces A.J. Green. They will also have a new defense, dropping the Seahawks for the Broncos.

Week 15 Starting Line-Up

QB Russell Wilson
RB Devonta Freeman
RB Todd Gurley
WR Julio Jones
WR Antonio Brown
TE Travis Kelce
RB Kareem Hunt
K Chris Boswell
DEF Denver Broncos


Game 2: (2) Ridiculous Rascals vs (3) Leaping Girl


Leaping Girl

Coming off of a disappointing loss to Tug of War to close the season, Leaping Girl will look to rebound in her first playoff game against the Ridiculous Rascals. She added two Panthers, dropping the injured Carson Wentz for Cam Newton and Kyle Rudolph for Greg Olsen, although neither is in line to start. She did bring DeMarco Murray into her line-up this week, benching Samaje Perine.

Week 15 Starting Line-Up

QB Drew Brees
RB LeSean McCoy
RB Alvin Kamara
WR Keenan Allen
WR DeAndre Hopkins
TE Jimmy Graham
RB DeMarco Murray
K Justin Tucker
DEF Jacksonville Jaguars


Ridiculous Rascals

In the midst of a three game losing streak, Ridiculous Rascals are suddenly in major trouble, as they will attempt to save their season this week against Leaping Girl. They will get Rob Gronkowski back this week, while Matthew Stafford earns a start over Dak Prescott. In terms of waiver moves, they made just one, dropping Alshon Jeffery for Jamaal Williams, although he is not in line to start.

UPDATE: Rascal has now dropped the Chargers defense for the Saints.

Week 15 Starting Line-Up

QB Matthew Stafford
RB Mark Ingram
RB Melvin Gordon
WR Adam Thielen
WR Brandin Cooks
TE Rob Gronkowski
WR Tyreek Hill
K Kai Forbath
DEF New Orleans Saints

Henry's Universe Mode #209: No Mercy(Part 1)

What does it take to be the best? It's a question that's been asked many times, by many people. To many, the answer is complicated; tonight, it is quite simple. Lay it all on the line, not for yourself but in pursuit of something. Settle your scores by defeating your opponent, as decisively as possible. Be ready for any opportunity that presents itself, because it might be your only chance. And above all else, show.....no......mercy. And now, Raw and SmackDown present.....................No Mercy! Universe Mode No Mercy September 24th, 2017 Location: Raleigh, NC Official No Mercy Theme Song- "No Mercy"- PVRIS The Shield(c) vs The Hardy Boyz- Raw Tag Team Championship Match For a large majority of this match, we saw a different side to Matt and Jeff Hardy. They were more calculating, operating at a slower pace is hopes of grinding out Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns. The strategy proved successful enough against Ambrose, but one mistake c...

The Route of Life

dedicated to my hermits, who changed my life Ch 1 My Hermit crabs Hermit crabs are sometimes hard to take care of. Especially when you never had a hermit. Last Sunday afternoon I got 2 Hermit crabs. Their names are Crabbe and Goyle. I have talked with many sales people. The first Petco we went to (where we got the hermits and their things) seemed to have no idea on the subject. So we ended up going to Dolphin Pet Village. They were more experience at the subject. Now we have some of the things we will need. Last week, I went to a second Petco. There we got a cuttlebone, which is the bone of a fish. Now they look happy. Have a good day Hermit Crabs! Ch 2 Curious Crab The week before last week, my mom looked into my crabitat and found that one of my crabs had climbed one of my fake trees. It was on the top branch. Later, when I was changing to get ready for bed, the crab fell out of his branch. I hope he is okay. He’s definitely starting to look okay. How funny do you think that story is...
