Monday Memo v2.14

We have some drama! The Dragons are making a huge move and are reeling in the Kellogg Krushers in the race for 2nd place. Another huge week has The Dragons within shouting distance of the runner-up position. A little further down, The Outlaws are making a move of their own on the 4th place Bouncers. If nothing else, the last 3 weeks of the season will give us a couple of things to watch, outside of what the league scoring record will end up being.

Current Standings:
The Maestro 1,888.39
Kellogg Krushers 1,580.98
The Dragons 1,549.37
The Bouncers 1,466.89
The Outlaws 1,417.07
The Dominator 1,275.76

Is it a coincidence that Ron Mexico was sentenced for his role in a dog fighting operation on the same day that his Falcons are meeting the Saints on Monday Night Football? Probably, but it remains to be seen what will be the worst news for the Falcons today: that the former face of their franchise will be spending the next 23 months in a federal prison, or that the country has to watch the team on national television tonight. The only thing that could make this game palatable would be if Byron Leftwich took a cue from the movie "Stand By Me" and replayed the pie eating scene. In that, the fat guy who everyone made fun of entered a pie eating contest, making sure he would be regurgitating each and every bit of blueberry pie he stuffed down his gullet. The resulting stream of bluish-red vomit had everyone in the audience hurling uncontrollably. If Leftwich could get the few thousand fans that actually attend the game at the Georgia Dome tonight to start recycling their Chick-Fil-A, Cracker Barrel, and moonshine, then it might actually make tuning into that pillow fight worthwhile.

Even the most unappealing of games has implications in the PPFFL, however. Reggie Bush will be suiting up for the Kellogg Krushers, trying to silence critics like KHTK's Mike Lamb, who thinks Reggie has spent too much time doing commercials and not enough time trying to become a superstar football player. Well, Mr. Lamb, maybe some people think you have been spending too much time trying to grow the largest head to ever be connected to a live human body and not enough time trying to formulate an actual intelligent opinion on sports.
