The Dog League: Week 12 Review(2018 Season)

Rascal proves his worth and Rare Woofs bring out the brooms in Week 12 of the Dog League. (Reminder: the Dog League is a fantasy football league run on NFL.com)






Game 1: Tug of War(109.98) vs Leaping Girl(126.96)


ANALYSIS

Leaping Girl keeps her season alive, as the unlikely tandem of Ezekiel Elliott(20.3 points) and Nick Chubb(24.8 points) powered her to victory. With this win, Leaping Girl does still have a chance to make the playoffs, although she needs to win out and for other results to go her way. Tug of War didn't have a bad game, but other than Phillip Lindsay(17 points), there were no real highlights this week.


Game 2: Ridiculous Rascals(124.94) vs Tailwaggerz(105.04)


ANALYSIS

It was an uneven game for Rascal, as Christian McCaffrey(35.7 points) and the Ravens defense(18 points) played well. On the other hand, Doug Baldwin(3.9 points), Antonio Brown(6.7 points) and Greg Olsen(1.1 points) all struggled mightily to get anything going, making this game far closer than it had any right to be. Tailwaggerz' day was very similar to Tug of War's, as there were no real standout performers. With this loss, their path to the regular season championship has gotten incredibly murky, and they have now won only one game out of the past three.


Game 3: Rare Woofs(109.92) vs Bark Force(102.82)


ANALYSIS

Rare Woofs raided the janitor's closet and brought out the best brooms money can buy, as they finished the regular season sweep over Bark Force. Leonard Fournette(22.8 points) led the way before his unfortunate ejection and probable suspension, forcing Rare Woofs to find someone else to carry the load. That man might be Josh Adams(16.4 points) who provided a nice spark this week. For Bark Force, Saquon Barkley(26.2 points) starred yet again, but this game will be the ultimate what-if scenario. Bark Force started Mark Ingram(6.6 points) this week, leaving Sony Michel(20.5 points) and JuJu Smith-Schuster(24.9 points) on the bench, both of whom could have easily won the game.

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...
