The Dog League: Week 10 Review(2018 Season)

The Streak................................is over. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)






Game 1: Tug of War(130.8) vs Bark Force(116.56)


ANALYSIS

There were solid contributions at the top level for Tug of War this week, with Matt Ryan(20.5 points) and Alvin Kamara(22.2 points) doing exactly what was expected of them. What was not expected was the performance of Zach Ertz(26.5 points) who led the team in scoring, pouring it on on Sunday night to basically get the win. The star for Bark Force this week was Aaron Jones(29.2 points), but another poor performance from Mike Evans(5.1 points) is cause for concern.


Game 2: Rare Woofs(119.54) vs Tailwaggerz(106.92)


ANALYSIS

In the end, the seven game winning streak of Tailwaggerz came to an end in underwhelming fashion, as Rare Woofs took the lead early and never wavered. The trio of Andrew Luck(21.2 points), Leonard Fournette(22.9 points) and Todd Gurley(22 points) led the surging Rare Woofs to their third win in the past four games, and sent them into a playoff spot. Only David Johnson(30.3 points) showed up in a disappointing loss for Tailwaggerz that now narrows their lead to only one game atop the standings.


Game 3: Leaping Girl(128.84) vs Ridiculous Rascals(153)


ANALYSIS

How are you supposed to compete with Drew Brees(28.9 points), Melvin Gordon(22.5 points), Christian McCaffrey(31.8 points) and Tyreek Hill(25.7 points) all at their best? Answer, you can't, as Emma found out this week. Rascal heads into the final four games of the season with a huge amount of momentum and a clean sweep over his sister. Leaping Girl did have some great performances from Russell Wilson(26.24 points), Ezekiel Elliott(30.7 points) and Nick Chubb(32.9 points) this week. However, she also had terrible games from James White(2.6 points) and the Jets defense(-3 points), resulting in a wildly uneven loss.

American Dad "Twinanigans" Review

It's been a while since the last Steve and Roger episode, and this week reminded me why that's such a classic American Dad pairing. This is a genuinely fun episode, filled with some great one liners and even a great callback to the show's past. "Twinanigans" centers around the heretofore unmentioned acting careers of Roger and Steve, who twinned it up as the Smith Brothers. I'm not going to question whether this backstory actually makes sense to the overall timeline; no one watches American Dad for continuity. Steve had to give up acting to attend kindergarten, and wants to give Roger a second chance at greatness. The two head to auditions, where Steve impresses and Roger blows it. It's here the episode kinda misfires, as it's never made abundantly clear why Roger struggles so much at acting. Is he just trying too hard, does he have some form of stage fright, does he not even know what acting is? This part of the story is just never explained, w...

Curious Crab

One Monday night my mom looked into my crabitat and found that a crab had climbed into one of my fake trees. It was in the top branch. I looked in later, and found that the crab had fallen out of the tree. I hope he is okay. What a day!

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...
