A great rivalry
is renewed as Jody's Colossal Waste of Time hosts
the Anderson Brewmeisters in the only Eastern
Divisional matchup of Week 4. The defending division
champion C.W.O.T. have been decimated with injuries
and have dropped two straight, while the Brewmeisters
finally broke into the win column with a 54-11
pounding of the Stereco last week.
Jody lost yet another player to injury last week
(Lamar Gordon), but the C.W.O.T. have to be impressed
by two of their early draft picks. Chris Brown
and Javon Walker combined for a monstrous 27 points
in the loss last week, and just might need to
do it again if the C.W.O.T. are to avoid a third
straight loss. Anderson showed last week that
they know a thing or two about putting up points
as well, and Peyton Manning and company would
like nothing more than to make it three straight
over the Pewter & Black.
victims of the bye week:
Anderson - RB Jones, REC Johnson
Jody - QB Hasselbeck

| The undefeated
Pimps continue their current three-game road trip
with a visit to En Fuego Field to take on the
Piana Raze. Despite losing to the Raze last year,
The Pimps have still taken four of the last five
in this interdivisional series.
At 3-0, The Pimps are off to their best start
since 2000, but will have to take the field in
Week 4 without one of their most productive players.
Shaun Alexander, who has scored the most points
for a running back over the season's first three
weeks, will be out on bye. The Raze, meanwhile,
will be at full strength and are looking to build
on a great performance last week in Bockville.
A win over The Pimps would erase the poor start
to the season for the defending Western Division
champs.
victims of the bye week:
Pimps - RB Alexander, RB Bennett, DEF Dallas

Sims 25, vs IRWIN 32 |
| |
| The Sims Stereco
– crawling out from behind the woodshed
after a 54-11 loss to Anderson – head into
more dangerous territory to take on the Irwin
Hellions. Already 0-2 away from home this season,
Sims looks to reverse that trend at Purgatory
Field and hand the Hellions a second straight
defeat.
Of course to do that, Sims will have to somehow
contain the Hellions Donovan McNabb, who leads
all quarterbacks with a hefty 16.3 points per
game. McNabb's Stereco counterpart, Mike Vick,
is off to a much slower start since returning
from last year's injury, averaging only 5.3 ppg.
Sims' troubles don't stop there, however, as their
Rams defense has posted rather embarrassing (-)1
point efforts in each of the last two weeks.
victims of the bye week:
Sims - RB Smith, REC Bryant
Irwin - RB George

| Pirk's Wicked
Oil Profiteer$ take aim on a winning streak as
they host the Abstract Machines in a Western Divisional
contest. Pirk is coming off of a much-needed victory
over the Hellions last week, while the Machines
are heading back out on the road following a 38-20
home loss to the much-improved Naughty Figs.
The Machines welcome Tom Brady and Curtis Martin
back into the huddle following their bye. The
two 2004 draft picks have already given a considerable
boost to the Machines' offense, and they'll certainly
be needed this week in keeping up with the Profiteer$.
Lucky for Machines, however, P.W.O.P. will have
to go without one of its best weapons, as Randy
Moss will be out on bye.

Figs 14, at THOMAS 37 |
| |
| Although they
should no longer be labeled as "expansion
teams", Thomas' Bock Boys and the Naughty
Figs will forever be linked as the only two franchises
to be added to the FLF. Yet, historically, that
is about all that is shared between the two.
Thomas' Bock Boys are 4-for-4 in making the playoffs,
have won one division championship, and are the
reigning Super Bowl Champions. The Naughty Figs,
in sharp contrast, have never made the playoffs,
have finished dead last in the East three times
in four years, and have played in two Draft Bowls.
But how things can change...
Three weeks into the new season, the Figs are
undefeated at 3-0 while the defending Super Bowl
champs have dropped two straight in falling to
1-2. Thomas has never lost three straight games
in a season, and will have to try and dodge that
bullet without the services of Daunte Culpepper,
the league's second-most productive quarterback.
His absence, however significant, may pale in
comparison to the Figs, who are losing four of
last week's starters to the bye week.
victims of the bye week:
Thomas - QB Culpepper
Figs - QB Harrington, REC Robinson, REC Williams,
K Brown, DEF Seattle
