Monday Memo v2.15

The weather on the East Coast played havoc with many of the games yesterday, but didn't have a ton of impact on the PPFFL. Outside of the Noreaster plowing through New England, which made The Maestro set the new single season scoring record with a whimper, rather than a bang, the weather didn't have any impact on the standings.

Current Standings:
The Maestro 1,954.94
Kellogg Krushers 1,679.52
The Dragons 1,650.63
The Bouncers 1,537.46
The Outlaws 1,480.20
The Dominator 1,335.55

Tonight's NFC Norris Division showdown between the Vikings and Bears is getting more attention than it deserves from the PPFFL. The Maestro is hoping Adrian Peterson recovers from his 3 yards on 14 carries performance against the 'Niners. The Kellogg Krushers are counting on Devin Hester to give them more of a cushion on The Dragons. And, The Bouncers are looking to Chet Taylor and the Chicago defense to make them even more comfortable in 4th place.

The way the seasons for the Bears and Vikings have developed, the only way this game is interesting at all is if one of three things happens: Peterson has his Bo Jackson moment on MNF, running over and around the formidable (at least that's what most people think) Bears defense; Devin Hester scores a TD every time he touches the ball, and the Vikings keep kicking to him; or the Bears offense, under the direction of Kyle Orton, fails to complete a forward pass all night. Otherwise, this game will likely be very forgettable. Remember folks, it's not guys like Dan Fouts and Dennis Miller in the booth that make people turn away from MNF, it's Week 15 matchups between teams like the Bears and the Vikings, who have only won 12 games between them in 14 weeks.
