Dallas and Syracuse division leaders with 5 wins; Dudes battle Thorobreds to Tie

Ron Yeany
PHI Griffins 75
RIB Raptors 21
GRIFFINS: Don’t let the 2-4 record fool you … the Griffins are only 15 points behind the overall leader. Turner and McCoy combined for 40 points, and Josh Freeman finally showed up with a good week at 16 points. All but one starter scored. RAPTORS: There’s no way to put a positive spin on the Raptor’s season at this point. They are 1-5, last in points, and their highest-scoring player of the week was Ted Nugent’s brother with 9 points. (Actually, we don’t know if he’s Ted’s brother.)
MER Mustangs 69
BOS Wildcats 42
MUSTANGS: Ahmad Bradshaw went off big time, with the week’s highest individual score of 26. Marque Colston is back strong with 14 points this week, and Drew Brees’ 12 points was fairly pedestrian by Drew Brees standards. Mercer picks up their second win of the season and stands at 2-3-1. WILDCATS: Every Wildcats starter scored and most had decent yardage points, but there were no rushing or receiving TDs from the entire crew. The defending champs drop to second place in the Paterno Division.
MIM Mud 57
FFL Froglickers 48
MUD: All but one Mud starter scored, with solid efforts all around. Fred Jackson lead the team yet again with 14 points, and Tony Romo chipped in 11. MassIll improves to 3-3 on the season. LICKERS: Frelinghuysen drops to 2-4, despite a fairly strong effort all around. Jay Cutler (12), Jordy Nelson (11) and Ray Rice (10) all scored in double digits.
DAL Armadillos 51
BOB Big Bang 41
ARMADILLOS: Dallas remains undefeated and improves to 5-0-1, with a 2.5 game lead in the Cappelletti Division. Rashard Mendenhall bounced back strong with a 17-point week, Matt Ryan add 10 and Calvin Johnson, John Kasay and Jimmy Graham scored 8 each. Graham, by the way, is the 5th-highest scoring receiver in the league so far this season. BANG: All but one starter scored, but no one managed a double-digit effort. Oh, and by the way: BANGER – PLEASE SEND ME THE DAMN TROPHY!!!
SYR Blizzard 51
HVV Violence 36
BLIZZARD: Syracuse improves to 5-1 and takes over first place in the Paterno Division. Who else but Aaron Rodgers lead the effort for the Blizzard, adding another 19 points. David Akers add 14 and Darren McFadden scored 11. VIOLENCE: Happy Valley drops to 3-3 on the season. Matthew Stafford lead the team with 13 points, and newly-acquired kicker Dan Bailey added a strong 11-point effort. Arian Foster disappointed, however, scoring only 2.
MIA Muffdivers 50
KEY Longfellows 31
MUFFDIVERS: Miami improves to 3-3 on the season, and Frank Gore had his 3rd strong week in a row, leading the Divers with 17 points. Jets Matt Sanchez (12) and Santonio Holmes (8) also had strong games. LONGFELLOWS: All but one Keystone starter scored, but the touchdowns were few and far between, with no player breaking into double digits. Keystone drops to 2-4 on the year.
OCD Beach Dudes 26
NCT Thorobreds 26
DUDES: And in this week’s version of No One Saw That Coming, the 4-1 Dudes battle the 1-4 Thorobreds to a TIE??? THOROBREDS: And in this week’s version of No One Saw That Coming, the 4-1 Dudes battle the 1-4 Thorobreds to a TIE???

  1. Is this our 3rd tie already in just 6 weeks?!? What are the odds? About the same as Syracuse and Dallas leading their divisions I imagine. Incredible.

    1. Not so incredible in my book. Two good teams. I’m not happy being in the same division with Syracuse AND Philadelphia AND MassIll. (And the Lickers don’t have a bad team, either.) Very tough Paterno Division this year — no room for error for any team here on out.

  3. 2nd tie of the year, Sam. A few years ago we had 4 ties in the same season, as I recall. And I think it was the Mud that was involved in 2 of them, if memory serves (memory doesn’t always serve me well, however).
