The Dog League: 2021 Preseason Update (Part 2)

 More action has taken place in the lead-up to the beginning of the 2021 season, and another couple injuries for key players, plus some overall tinkering, has led to 4 more waiver moves being made in the Dog League. Let's break 'em down. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)




Canine Comets

The Comets made their second move of the year shortly after the last update was written, bringing in Jerry Jeudy as a backup receiver in place of Darnell Mooney. Jeudy flashed potential last year, and with the reliable Teddy Bridgewater now throwing to him, the Comets hope the young receiver will take a step forward in his second season. 


Growlers

The league's other expansion team has stayed active on the waiver wire, making a move this morning to acquire Tyler Higbee, who will be penciled in to start at tight end with Irv Smith set to miss time with a knee injury. Higbee was added in place of Matt Ryan, as the Growlers will gamble on Josh Allen to stay healthy as the sole quarterback on their roster. 


Leaping Girl

Emma made her first waiver move of the year last Thursday, dropping A.J. Dillon to bring in Trey Sermon, as she hopes that between Sermon and Raheem Mostert, one of the two electrifying 49ers backs will prove to be a long-term weapon. 


Bark Force

It's been a rough past few months for Bark Force, as following the loss of Cam Akers, the team has now lost J.K. Dobbins for the year after a devastating ACL tear. You never want to see two of your top draft picks go down this early, but Bark Force will just have to pick themselves up and keep pushing forward. Yet again, they have activated "Option C", which allows them to bring in the immediate backup for an injured player, without anyone else in the league allowed to claim that backup. In this case, that means acquiring Gus Edwards, who is not quite as dynamic a player as Dobbins, but should still provide reliable play as the head of the run-heavy Ravens backfield. 



Hopefully, the next time you hear about the Dog League, it'll be for the Week 1 Preview, without significantly more moves needing to be made between now and then, but it's been a crazy preseason thus far, so no promises can be made.

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!

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...
