The victim of the first reported upset of week 5 is DTC's own beloved Dallas Gladiators. The geeks have obviously forgotten that the center was created for the purpose of helping make the Gladiators winners. The only thing they can show for the 2008 season is a 1-4 record and 24 cases of Twinkies consumed.
Dallas QB Tom Brady reportedly called Muncie QB Peyton Manning a "girly-boy" before the game in reference to his 68.2 QB rating coming into the game with 4 TDs and 5 INTs to his credit. Manning responded with a 19 of 23, 215 yd, 1 td outing (120.1 rating). Brady finished with a girly-boy rating number of 68.1 completing only 13 of 24 passes.
The Gladiator injury woes have now moved to include the defense with starting LB Scott Fujita and S Adrian Wilson down. The Packers lost some depth on the o-line with backups "Orange" Junius Coston and Tony "Doll" Moll both out for at least a week.
The overachieving Packers have now thwarted the DTC predictions 4 out of 5 times. At 4-1 they keep pressure on division leader Nashville. Next week they will be 9 point underdogs at Hermitage. The hospital ward Gladiators will be two TD favorites against Philadelphia who, at press time, have still not accomplished their first win.
