It was brought to my attention that All-Stars in terms of the actual game aren't always the same as the person putting up the most points, as situational aspects can interfere. So, to be clear, this regards Fantasy Football only, and will be strictly points based. With that said, here's your players for the week, two at every position this time to represent more performances.
Quarterbacks: Michael Vick and Tom Brady
Running Backs: Adrian Peterson and Marshawn Lynch
Wide Receivers: Reggie Wayne and Greg Jennings
Tight Ends: Vernon Davis and Benjamin Watson
Kickers: Josh Brown and David Buehler
There's your all-stars for this week. Another of these posts will be out at the same time next week, and my next post should be tomorrow covering Tuesday's NHL games.

Monday Night Football, week 13
This game takes place at Gilette Stadium, where the New England Patriots hosted the New York Jets. The Patriots came out kicking (so to speak) with Shayne Graham opening the scoring with a 41 yard field goal. BenJarvus Green-Ellis dented the goal line for the Patriots, with a 1 yard touchdown rush and Graham added an extra point. Going airborne for the second touchdown, Tom Brady found Deion Branch for 25 yards, and Graham added another extra point. Nick Folk put the Jets on the board with a 39 yard field goal, to make it 17-3 Patriots. Brady passed to Brandon Tate for 4 yards and a touchdown, and after the Graham extra point, it was 24-3, which lasted until halftime. Brady found another target for a touchdown, going 18 yards to Wes Welker, and Graham was true in service with another extra point. Not wanting to be accused of being bland, Brady threw his fourth touchdown pass of the night 1 yard to Aaron Hernandez, and Graham added yet another extra point to make it 38-3. Green-Ellis topped it all off with a 5 yard run, and Graham's extra point made it 45-3, which proved to be the final.

They shaved the lead down to one with Tim Brent's third of the year, with helpers going to Kaberle and Nazem Kadri. MacArthur then tied it up 59 seconds later with his second of the night and ninth of the year, from Grabovski and Phil Kessel. After a scoreless overtime, Grabovski netted the only goal in the shootout to complete the Maple Leafs come from behind victory, 5-4. MacArthur earned the first star for his two goals, followed by Perreault, who had two goals as well, and lastly, Grabovski, who had a goal and an assist, plus the winner in the shootout. One fight was fought, with D.J. King (the next big video game title) fighting against Colton Orr.
To the other hub of NHL spotlight, Pittsburgh, where the Penguins hosted rivals in the New Jersey Devils. The Devils started Johan Hedberg once again, while the Penguins rolled with Marc-Andre Fleury. Brian Rolston drew first blood for New Jersey, with his second of the year in the first period, assisted by Jason Arnott and Mattias Tedenby on the power play. Chris Kunitz would have none of that, tying the game with his eighth of the season, thanks to assists by Sidney Crosby and Pascal Dupuis. Crosby added his 24th of the year in the second period, thanks to Alex Goligoski and Kunitz. After only a fight in the third period between Deryk Engelland of the Penguins and David Clarkson of the Devils, Pittsburgh rolled to a 2-1 victory. Crosby was the first star with his goal and assist, followed by Kunitz who had the same, and Johan Hedberg, the losing goalie, who went 32 for 34 in saves.
Going along to Columbus, where the Dallas Stars paid a visit to the Blue Jackets. Columbus rolled with Mathieu Garon, while the Stars deployed Kari Lethonen to handle the shots.

NHL recap for Sunday December 5th
There were five games on this past Sunday, which is a lot for a Sunday. On an unrelated note, in Major League Baseball, Derek Jeter stayed with the Yankees, while Jayson Werth (and his beard) signed with the Washington Nationals, and Adrian Gonzalez will be at first base for the Boston Red Sox. Back to the rink, specifically the one at the Nassau Veteran's Memorial Colosseum...
With the New York Islanders hosting the Philadelphia Flyers. Dwayne Roloson got the start for New York, while Sergei Bobrovsky was in between the pipes for Philadelphia. Matt Carle started the scoring for the Flyers with his first of the year, assisted by Andrej Meszaros and Mike Richards. After both teams took the second period off, the Islanders tied it through Jon Sim's first of the year, from P.A. Parenteau and Rob Schremp. They took the lead on Frans Nielsen's third of the year, just 36 seconds later. Mark Eaton picked up the lone assist. Andreas Nodl re-tied the game with his seventh of the year, a power play goal with assistance by Meszaros and Claude Giroux. Danny Briere gave the Flyers the lead, with his 14th of the year, assisted by Ville Leino and Scott Hartnell. Philadelphia held on to win 3-2, and Briere was the first star for his goal. Sergei Bobrovsky's 28 for 30 save performance was the second star, while Frans Nielsen's goal in a losing effort was the third star.
Going across town to the Madison Square Garden, where the New York Rangers hosted the Ottawa Senators. Pascal Leclaire started for the visiting Senators, while Henrik Lundqvist was in the crease for the Rangers. Chris Kelly started the scoring in the second period after a scoreless first with his fourth of the year, a shorthanded and unassisted goal. Brandon Prust scored his third of the year in response for the Rangers, also a shorthanded goal, with assists going to Brian Boyle and Dan Girardi. Chris Kelly gave the Senators the lead back with his second of the night, fifth of the season, assisted by Jarkko Ruutu and Filip Kuba. He finished the hat trick in the last second of the game, good for his sixth of the year as an unassisted empty netter, giving Ottawa a 3-1 win over New York. Pascal Leclaire earned the first star with 25 of 26 saves, followed by Chris Kelly's hat trick, and the third star was given to losing goalie Henrik Lundqvist for 22 saves on 24 shots.
Moving along to Chicago, with the Blackhawks playing host to the Calgary Flames. Miikka Kiprusoff started for the Flames, with Corey Crawford being at the other end of the ice in the Blackhawk net. To save virtual paper, I will take this time to mention every first period goal was a power play goal. Bryan Bickell opened the scoring with his fifth of the year, via Brian Campbell. Dave Bolland extended Chicago's lead with his second of the season, assisted by Jonathan Toews and Brent Seabrook. Jarome Iginla got the Flames onto the board with his eleventh of the season, thanks to Rene Bourque and Jay Bouwmeester. Anton Babchuk tied it up with his fourth of the season, with assists by Mark Giordano and Brendan Morrison. Toews regained the lead for the Blackhawks with his 12th of the year, courtesy of Tomas Kopecky and Brent Seabrook. After going two periods' worth of scoreless play, Dave Bolland added on his third of the season and second of the night to put it out of reach. It was an empty net goal from Brent Seabrook and Duncan Keith. Chicago won 4-2. First star was Toews, who had a goal and an assist, followed by Iginla, who had a goal in the losing effort, and lastly for third star, Bolland, who had two goals. Steve Staios of the Flames and Jake Dowell of the Blackhawks also featured in a second period fight.
Moving to Disneyland, where the Anaheim Ducks hosted division rivals from Phoenix, the Coyotes. The Coyotes used Ilya Bryzgalov to block pucks, while Jonas Hiller tended the Ducks twine. Taylor Pyatt opened the scoring in the first period for Phoenix, with his fourth of the year coming from Sami Lepisto and Dave Schlemko. Shane Doan tallied on another goal for Phoenix late in the second period, his second mark of the season, coming on the power play and from Keith Yandle and Ray Whitney. Lee Stempniak finished it off with an empty net goal, his eighth goal of the season, from Vernon Fiddler (on the roof). Ilya Bryzgalov got the first star for his 3-0 shutout with 26 saves. Toni Lydman of the Ducks was the second star for reasons unknown, followed by third star Shane Doan, who had a goal. The early first period fight featured two of the best, in Anaheim's Mustached Muchacho George Parros and Twitter legend Paul Bissonnette.
Finally, in Vancouver, British Columbia, where the Canucks took on visitors from St. Louis, the Blues. Jaroslav Halak started for the Blues, while Roberto Luongo, the poet, was given the nod for Vancouver. Alex Steen drew first blood for the Blues, with his sixth of the season, assisted by Matt D'Agostini and Patrik Berglund. Jannik Hansen answered for the Canucks, with his second of the year from Jeff Tambellini and Keith Ballard. D'Agostini added his own goal in the second period, to give the Blues a 2-1 lead, with assists by Eric Brewer and Alex Steen. Vancouver answered again with Kevin Bieksa's second of the year, assisted by Daniel Sedin. Alex Steen gave the Blues the lead one more time with his seventh of the year and second of the night in the third period. This goal was unassisted and also the deciding factor in the game, where St. Louis won 3-2. Steen was the first star with two goals and one assist, followed by Jannik Hansen's goal in the losing effort, and finished up by D'Agostini's goal and assist. There was one early fight in the first period, between Carlo Colaiacovo and Keith Ballard.
That's all for Sunday. I'm hoping to get Monday's recaps out, but I'm fairly swamped tonight, so we'll see. Also, Monday Night Football's post will be out either tonight or tomorrow, depending on how much time I get.

Sunday Night Football, Week 13
The last game of the day, being played in Baltimore, Maryland, where the Ravens host division rivals from Pittsburgh, the Steelers. Baltimore struck relatively early with Joe Flacco connecting with Anquan Boldin for 14 yards, which was followed by a Billy Cundiff extra point. This 7-0 score would last throughout the second quarter and into the third until Shaun Suisham kicked a 45 yard field goal to make it 7-3 Ravens. Cundiff responded for Baltimore with a 24 yard field goal. Suisham added a 19 yard field goal in the fourth quarter. The Steelers then took a lead on Ben Roethilsberger's 9 yard touchdown pass to Isaac Redman. Suisham made it 13-10, which proved to be the final score. Pittsburgh improved to 9-3 while knocking the Ravens down to 8-4.
