Lots of interesting developments during Week 2. It all got started when newcomer Cheesesteak decided to throw down the gauntlet, using all three of his Vapor Locks in one fell swoop. After clinching his 11 unit play, things quickly unraveled. Failing to cover with his last two selections, he fell back below the 0 line. It is worth noting that no MLLC Champion has ever gone 1-2 on Vapors for the year. It is also worth noting that Cheesesteak's leader and mentor, JBrowns Mom (literally and figuratively) is not in a much better spot after going 0-2 with his initial Vapor Lock offerings. So much so, he has managed to move into last even though two other members have yet to win a game!
Speaking of the win-less, how the mighty have fallen. The mighty, mighty Gator - the all-time units, win, and money leader coming into the season (who won the title running away last season) - finds himself a perfect 0-6. Ever since Lane Kiffin royaled f'ed him over (and many of you as well) at the end of the first game of the year, he has been spiraling out of control like after Mr. Lawrence Skates got his first taste of Wild Turkey. Truth be told, I'd be shocked to see either him or The Whole F'n Show still searching for their first win heading into Week Four. 0-9? Gator Don't Play that Shit!
The Sad Onions Club was standing room only this week. Not only were the aforementioned regulars back, they were joined by four fresh faces. Uncle PJ, delirious with fever, was unable to find a win. Roy Betterman took Da Bears, DA BEARS on a nationally televised prime time game! Even our two-headed monster (not to be confused with the one-eyed monster JBrowns Mom likes so much) couldn't come through with a winner. The Biggest Loser of the Week was The TOMizzle whose 0-3 week dropped him 10 spots in the standings.
On a positive note, your beloved commissioner came up on fat money this week over the first two sets. It started when Army unleashed a biblical ass-whipping on UTEP Saturday night, covering their spread by 48.5 points. The beatings continued into Sunday afternoon. While most of you were watching precious units slip away in LA, Coach Arians was bringing home the green guys for T-$. The Cardinals managed to cover their spread by 26.5. Neither of these are guaranteed to last the test of the next 11 weeks, but I would rather be me than you.
