The CommishCOMMISH'S CORNER
Here are the Week #4 results in the "Myers Family Football League":
Stingrays
101 Redhawks 61
The Mighty Merv leads the way yet again in Week #4 with a league high 101
points. The Stingrays QB & Def alone were almost enough to beat the 'Hawks.
The Stingrays now head into the family showdown this week with Mike's Maulers to
see who will remain the only undefeated team in the league. Merv has been
waiting for weeks to "kick Mike's ass". The Redhawks found out what
the 3 previous Stingray opponents have, you better have your best week or you
have no chance. Maybe the 'Hawks will look to trade one of their QB's.......hmmm,
MAYBE someone will make an offer? (hint hint).
Pride
78 Elephants 43
The Commish's upset special didn't come to be. That is what I get for picking an
Elephant to win a game that is usually decided by speed! Owners Rose/Brown put
there computer problems aside and get the needed win. The Pride have the 3rd
most points in the league, which is good enough to be in 2nd place in the A (aka
Myers I) Division. The Pride can only hope the son can beat the Dad in the Myers
Showdown to give them a chance of catching up. The Elephants have a
disappointing effort as they get 1 point from their defense, but even then they
would have needed a big game to beat the Pride. The Elephants need a serious win
streak to get back into playoff contention.
Maulers
100 Cows 60
Mike's Maulers continue to plow through league with another big week. The
Maulers have had this week's showdown with the Stingrays circled since spring
practice. They are hitting on all cylinders and are not intimidated by the trash
talking Stingrays. Another week with four 20+ point efforts and they will be
hard to beat. The Maulers have the biggest division lead in the league, they are
good to say the least. The Cows suffer the same fate as the 'Hawks, playing a
Myer's owned team the week before their big game. That is not when you want to
play them. The Cows only need to put together a few wins to get back into the
race. On a positive note, Owner Driver has gone almost a month without making an
illegal free agent claim. Keep up the good work!
Contributors
87 Cossacks 78
The Game of the Week this past week. High scoring, lots of trash talking and a
crucial division game that lived up to the hype. Owner McSwain gets the needed
win and vaults out of the cellar into a 2nd place tie in the B (aka Myers II)
Division. The Contributors keep putting up the points and finally get the reward
of the win over hated rival Cossacks. Owner McSwain has put all his faith in the
Purdue football squad and continues to reap the rewards of Drew Brees and the
boyz from Indiana. Hmmm, Purdue plays a high school team this week (Penn St),
think they might have yet another high scoring week???? Cossacks Owner Maze can
relish in the fact they his team was good enough to get the extra bonus point
this week and they have now have had the most points scored against them in the
league. All those that feel bad for the Cossacks squad raise your
hand..........anyone?.........anyone? I guess not?
Titans
87 Christians 19
WOW! The entire Myers family is now putting up points! I guess Owner Jeff
finally learned enough of the family secrets to start performing up to family
standards. The Titans get the win against the Canon City School for the Blind
Christians who barely put up a fight. The win and bonus win put the Titans into
first place in the C (Myers III) Division. The Christians put up a
"Death"-like effort. As Michael Vick goes (or doesn't play), so goes
the Christians. They still have the coolest boxscore each week, so they have
that going for them!
Q-Dogs
74 Death 55
Owners Russ/Al get the needed win over the still lame Death Squad. They got a
huge 41 point effort from Florida QB's, a new high sidepot, I guess the 35 point
defensive effort wouldn't hold up as I was told. They needed that as the Death
Squad actually scored more than 20 points this week. The Q-Dogs couldn't get the
bonus point though, and that cost them the division lead. The Death Squad
remains winless but at least had a respectable showing. Back to the drawing
board again for the Commish, maybe I will make the right choices of who to start
this week.
Special Weekly Awards:
Coaching Blunder of the Week: To the Commish (again!) for benching Jones and Michigan St QB. If they start, the Death Squad gets their first win.
MVP of the Week: Florida QB, Q-Dogs They posted a new league high 41 points, out scoring the rest of the entire Q-Dogs line-up.
Boxscore Blunder of the Week: Q-Dogs The scores were pretty good this week, but the Q-Dogs led the way with 4 wrong scores. Unfortunately, they were in their favor, so it made the win even bigger over the still winless Death.
Quote of the
Week: Quotes from the Game of the Week, Contributors
vs. Cossacks.......... Owner McSwain, "Maze sucks and owes me $20. Nice 2nd
place finish for Maze, don't you think?" Owner Maze responds, "I told
him she should just enroll at Purdue, since he wants to blow the whole
team." I hope these two teams meet again!!!!!!!!
