Week 4 Color Commentary

It was another exciting week around the league. The top 4 teams and the bottom 4 teams are quickly separating themselves from the pack. However, much like the NHL (did you know hockey started already? me neither.) just about everyone makes the playoffs in the Moose league. I implore everyone to send their $25 to Moose now. If it's easier, please make the checks out to Andrew Campbell and put c/o Moose in the memo line. That will save us all some trouble. Oh, and Cappy, money order only from you - no personal checks.

We are only 4 weeks into the season, but let's recognize a few people for some great draft picks:

- Peyton Hillis - Jen Lin picked up this gump in the 15th round with the 201st overall pick. This dude is a fullback with a square head and is somehow averaging 18 pts/game. And the Browns original starting back, Jerome Harrision, my fifth round pick? He's available if you want to pick him up.

- Who is white, averages 10 catches and 100 yards/game? No, it's not Wes Welker, this guy actually scores touchdowns too. It's Austin Collie! - Like I'm not going to give props to myself for picking up the league-leading wide receiver in the 10th round of the draft!

- Arian Foster - Dagan picked this guy up in the fourth round. He averages 26 pts/game to lead all scorers and even put up 30 last week after being benched the first half of the game. Don't miss meetings, Arian, that's not professional. This pick almost makes up for Dagan taking Ray Rice with the 2nd pick of the draft. That was a waste.

Now the awards!

The Justin-Bieber-is-Dufresne's-Wet-Dream Award for Awesomeness

Dagan takes the crown on the back of Arian Foster, helped by getting 15 points from just about everyone else on his team. Only three teams crossed 100 points in what amounted to a pretty sad overall week. We can do better than this, people!

The Douche of the Week Award for Poor Decision-Making

Steph pulled the biggest boner this week. She also made an unfortunate choice with her team. Having to choose one of three crappy running backs to bench - Sproles, Maroney, or Ricky Williams - she made the wrong call. The result: Ricky rides the pine and knocks Steph back to .500 after losing the closest game in the league this season by less than 3 points to OT. I can't really blame her for the decision, but how else was I going to make that sweet boner joke?

The Nasty Midget Award for Small Victories

This award goes to the team who, while trapped in a world of suck, managed to find some mild amount of success. This week we have co-winners! OT and Mauger both finally managed to get off schneid and win a game. Sure neither of you managed 90 points and you are now tied in the standings with Samu, the guy who hasn't touched his team since week one. Congratulations!

The Mraaaaooowrrr Award for Pummeling One's Opponent (replacing the late great Rihanna Trophy)

No surprise, this also goes to Dagan for whomping on Mons/Cappy by more than 50. Good news for Dagan in a week where the Red Sox owners officially gave up on baseball in order to buy Liverpool FC. At least Mike Ilitch had the sense to stay in America and invest in the Pistons!
