The Genius scored 82 points this week, the fourth highest in the league for the week, but lost to Crimson Crushers.

The Genius has the highest point total by far of the winless teams.

Ass Spanking Of The Week

The Dead Cent-et-tri-ipedes posted the first triple digit score of the season, 103 points, boosted by Shaun Alexander's whopping 31 points.

Their opponent, Thunderfleas, posted a mere 41 points for a gangantuan loss differential of 62 points. Youch!

Owner of Thunderfleas, Daniel Wakabayashi, could not be reached for comment. Representatives at the Thunderfleas' front office would not pass calls to the thoroughly drubbed owner, claiming that the boss was "in Egypt."

"In Egypt"?! Seriously, that's the best they could come up with? How about "at the spa" or "in talks to move the team to another city"?

A free press and an informed populace are important guiding principals at The Opus, and the staff finds such press dodging irrefut-... incorrig-... Um. Insufferable? Does that work? Irresponsible? In<something>able. ... Dang! What the hell is the word I'm looking for?

Considering last week's poll indicating the sweeping popularity of Thunderfleas, the Opus surmises that many in the DFL are upset at the humongus buttkicking delivered to the Thunderfleas.

Even Dead Centipedes owner, Curt Wu, seemed down about the lopsided victory. "Shaun Alexander was among my top draft choices. I rely on him to do well, but 31 points! I wish I hadn't have started him, had put a complete blank in his place. That would have cut the point differential in half, but, you know, still a pretty solid can of whoop-ass."

For Real Warriors?
