================

LEWIS FAMILY CHALLENGE GAME OF THE WEEK:

2-2 Smytherines 108.64
1-3 Dolphins 109.22

* Well look who finally righted the ship and found the way to beuluh-land. Both teams were dealing with byes from contributing starters as well as low output from the starters who played. The Dolphins won by a little more than a half a point, thanks to the monster outing by CIN WR Terrell Owens (38.2pts in Cleveland). Both teams left points on the bench, but just about every scenario would give the beached Mosleys their first win of the 2010 season. Congrats to the Dolphins for not just their first win, but versus one of the league's toughest teams!

----------

3-1 SpecialEd 91.22
1-3 team jacob 109.44

* You just knew there was something in the air when team jacob took a huge early lead over Special Ed in the 1pm games on Sunday - this was UpsetWeekend in LFC - all the major teams succumbed to teams itching to get above .500. While all the other upsets are admirable, team jacob pulled off the win of the season - taking down the league's #1 team despite not even starting three RBs. Special Ed got a great game from HOU HB A. Foster (39.70pts) but his ace-in-the-hole, CHI RB Matt Forte could only offer 3.30pts for the day. It simply wasn't enough to keep their undefeated record alive - as jacob enjoyed outings from IND RB Joseph Addai (20.20pts), DET WR C. JOhnson (20.80pts), and NYJ HB L. Tomlinson (31.50pts). Hopefully this win will turn things around for team jacob as they join the chase for a playoff spot - but if that doesn't happen - they'll always have Sunday October 3rd, 2010 - the day they showed Special Ed who the real team is.

----------

2-2 Intended 100.78
2-2 roopdogs 109.58

* Special teams, special teams - the LFC is known far and wide for allowing special teams to play a significant role in scoring. The roopdogs took full advantage of those rules, as they came from behind midway through Monday night's football game in Miami, as New England's WR Brandon Tate returned a kickoff 103yds for a touchdown - giving the roopies the lead and the win - bringing their W/L record to a even .500 for the season.

----------

2-2 in brooklyn 97.90
2-2 littlerupp 120.24

* If team jacob could do it and the Mosley Dolphins found a way - surely littlerupp could produce the same result? Ah, right - the Vegas oddsmakers were piled heavy on the growth spurts, as littlerupp couldn't even find the time to assemble a starting unit with players that were, uhm, actually playing football this weekend. The littleupp started two guys who were on vacation - and started one guy who watched the game from the bench. You could say the bars in Brooklyn were knockin' em back eager to watch the scoreboard light up in their favor - but alas, that would have happened any other Sunday - but not on Upset Sunday. That's right - the guys who did contributed points to the littlerupp cause put up Davidian-vs-Phillistine like numbers. It didn't matter that the rupp deck was half stacked and they had the New England Patriots Defense on MOnday Night Football, who contributed two TDs, four INTs, one TD return, and 2 sacks.

----------
3-1 allstars 68.30
1-3 Sauteed Mules 55.92

* A rough outing for both of these playoff contenders as neither team came close to reaching the century mark. This was a brutal game to follow as the points were trickling in at a snail's pace. The AllStars won on the arm of NO QB Drew Brees and the back of SD HB Mike Tolbert. Bye weeks can kill even the best teams - and Upset Sunday was all about who managed their byes. The Mules could have won this game - if they hadn't of left 40pts on the bench. Live and learn.

----------
3-1 Haulers 64.16
3-1 Five Alive 108.14

* This game was over by twenty minutes after 1pm on Sunday - as the Haulers lost the services of their starting QB, PHI Michael Vick. And things didn't get any better when their #1 WR, HOU Andre JOhnson, called out sick at 4:15pm. The Five Alive didn't ease up on the walking wounded - they shifted into overdrive and tapped the nOS button, boom goes the dynamite, folks.

----------
2-2 Pound 111.16
1-3 Knights 74.54

* Civil War IV: Pounders vs Knights ... this is a battle that has been waging since long before LFC was founded. The entire season rests upon the outcome of this game. And it was a hallmark game - that is, until SD TE Antonio Gates hauled in his 500th career catch on his way to a 30.40pt effort - enough to distance the Pound from the Golden Knights. Two weeks ago the Pounders were sifting sand at the bottom of the standings - now they're a game behind the front runners. Only in the LFC.
