Week 3: Match-ups

Week 3 starts shortly, and with it comes the glory and the agony. I'm focusing on the glory this week, Zim and the cuddly Illuminators are both seeking glory. Who else is stepping up?

Doof (118) v Farnsworths (101)

BEHOLD, THE ANTI-FARNSWORTHS-INATOR

Two 0-2 teams face off, one will walk away with a W and the other will post a third donut in a row. Three losses to open the season will be very hard to come back from, but the Farnsworth's accomplished not just that feat in the 2013 SuperCoach League, they also stole the premiership Cup from Doof's hands. Doof is definitely looking for payback and a kick-start to a winning season. A can sense a brand-new Anti-Farnsworths-Inator in the making.

Endless (89) v Breesus (108)

Breesus will be looking for some divine intervention following last weeks abysmal performance. Not even Hades could bear to watch the carnage. Both sides have tinkered with their line-ups, from the projections Breesus has won that battle.

Cuddly Illuminators:

Illuminators (115) v Zim (102)

The smack talking started early between these teams as they both vie to keep their winning seasons on target. There can be only one shining light at the end of the round and the projection puts the Illuminators up. As usual it will all depend on which Running Backs can actually bother showing up this week. Last week Lynch entered Beast Mode and ran riot over the 49ers, putting the Farnsworth's to rest. Zim will be looking at The Law Firm (BenJarvis Green-Ellis) and Ray Rice to play similar roles in this weeks showdown.

US Forces (122) v Maidens (97)

The Maidens are 0-2 and the Forces are 2-0. Even with a stinker from star-QB Kaepernick last week the Forces had enough depth to post a win. The Maidens meanwhile lost a close one to Agent P. The Maidens currently do not have a Kicker in the squad, so that is a must if the Maidens are to have any chance. The Maidens will be hoping the Forces consist mostly of Black Hawks choppers that have a tendency to fly into each other and explode, and not so much of, well, pretty much any other military hardware. Because, lets face it, if Michael Bay has taught us anything (and he has!) its that the military hardware of the US Forces is so damn cool.

Wooli (103) v Agent P (116)

Wooli followed up an impressive Week 1 victory with a close Week 2 loss. Although Zim was wringing her hands in delight, Wooli forgetting to fill two spots was the difference between the two teams. Wooli has corrected that error and has posted a complete line-up for Week 3. Agent P has quietly gone about posting two wins and sits in first place in the League. Despite the unassuming on-field performance, Agent P has been hard at work behind the scenes in changing owners. From Week 3 a new owner takes control of the franchise. Only time will tell whether the team name is changed to reflect the new owners intent. In any case, Agent P boasts a strong line up and will be tough to beat.
