COMMISH'S CORNER

First and foremost, let's take a look at the Week #3 results:

Stingrays 109    Contributors 94
The Mighty Merv continues to set the pace in the UAL league. His Stingray's squad drops a fat 109 points on Mr. McSwain, who despite having the 2nd best point total of the week and 2nd best overall point total, suffers the loss to drop to the basement of the B Division. The Stingrays now own the leagues best record, best scoring average, longest TD run, longest TD catch. Hmmm, sounds like the team to beat!

Cossacks 71     Redhawks 68
Maze's Cossacks squad squeak out the win over the Hawks. The Cossacks needed the win to stay in the race in the very tough B Division. The week #4 division match-ups will be crucial for the Cossacks, it is an early season crucial match-up for them. The Redhawks manage to get the final spot in the bonus point standings, so it wasn't a total loss, but they only got the point back they lost last week in winning but not securing the extra point. The Hawks have the unenviable task of trying to catch the Mighty Stingrays in the A Division.

Elephants 63    Titans    61
As the only non-internet team in the league, the Elephants get their first W of the season, providing hope that they can get back into the A Division race. Owner Brady must be spending a lot of time shuffling through the daily papers, hoping a name jumps out at him as he tries to fill a couple of holes on the Elephants squad. The Titans have been an early season disappointment. While the "other Myers boyz" continue to plow through the league with perfect records, Jeff is left to wonder why he didn't inherit the mighty wisdom the rest of the family has. Maybe it is just the family luck he doesn't have!

Pride 84    Christians 42
Owners Rose & Brown get the needed W to remain only a win behind in the A Division. A week #2 loss to one of those Myers not named Jeff, is the only set back for the Pride. They have a solid team and if Larry could ever figure out his new computer, they could really give the 'Rays a run. One hint Larry, don't ask you beloved partner Harry for help with that computer! The Christians post their second consectutive disappointing performance after posting the still standing weekly point high performance in week #1. Dave does have one season award wrapped up already, best score reporting format. Very nice Excel file, team logos and everything. Nice work Dave!

Cows 53    Death 18
The Cows had a bye week for all intensive purposes. The Cows need to put an end to the Mighty Myers' (less Jeff) win streak to stay in the race for the B Division title. After a tumultuous start dealing with the waiver wire (Georgia Southern is still not an eligible team at this time), Owner Driver has settled the Cows down and reeled off back to back W's. The Death Squad.......hmmm, not much to say. Suck, horrible, horrendous, abysmal, pathetic, disastrous, embarrassing. Did I mention the Death Squad is not good?

Maulers 77    Q-Dogs 23
Owner Mike Myers keeps pace with Papa Myers as the only undefeated team in the league. The Maulers shrug off a rash of last minute injuries to post the W and hold onto first place in the tough B Division. The Maulers have lived up to their name so far. The Q-Dogs should be thankful that the lame Death Squad is in the league, or they would have the most pathetic performance in the league so far. With that being said, they sit alone in 1st place in the very weak C Division. Go figure?


Special Weekly Awards:

Coaching Blunder of the Week: To the Commish for thinking he knew anything about college football.

MVP of the Week:    S. Miss Def, Maulers    They posted a huge 35 point effort to lead the way to a 3rd straight win for the Maulers. It is the new player point season high, although I was told Defenses never win that award. We'll see!

Boxscore Blunder of the Week:     Redhawks    For the 2nd straight week, they sent in a total score for the game, no player points. Owner Carey says to chalk it up as a Rookie mistake. We are heading into Week #4, there are no more "Rookie Owners" when it comes to reporting scores from here on out!

Quote of the Week:    Commenting on his high scoring match this past week (and obviously forgetting about his week #4 match-up with the Redhwaks), Stingrays Owner Merv had this to say, "I could be working up to a big let down...hopefully it isn't until after I kick Mike's ass this week".

That is all for now. Look for the same regular report here each week during the rest of the season. A SPECIAL thanks to all those who have got their boxscores in on time and also have taken the time to confirm the scores with their opponent. Good luck to all in Week #4!
