Apollo's Creed (0-1)
Week 1 was a sure disappointment. I had the lead going into the Monday night game. But I had no one playing, but my opponent had Ahman Green, who smoked me. SMOKED me! Hopefully this week, Jamal Lewis will have a real game of it and I don't regret starting Warrick Dunn. If only we had a utility player. Dunn would be perfect in that role. This week I'm playing my Jon, and should be an exciting week.

Gridiron Challenge
This week's picks look good to me. I have the top 2 Quaterbacks from last week, Priest Holmes and Brian Westbrook both play makers and can score touchdowns. Owens and Moss. Do I have too many Eagles and Vikings? Perhaps, but they were both offensively HUGE last week. Last week my team totaled 125 points. This team would have scored 186 last week together. The winner of the week last week scored 200 points. So I think I'm in pretty good position to make some huge steps.
