Shock this and that

A couple of Shock notes this morning. Spokane (2-1) moved up to No. 3 in the coaches' and writers' polls. Chicago and Milwaukee, the AFL's only unbeatens, are ranked first and second, respectively. Arizona (2-1), tied with Spokane for the West Division lead, is No. 4 in one poll, No. 5 in the other.

--Spokane activated WR Shaun Kauleinamoku, DB Alex Teems and OL Chris Pino from injured-reserve. OL Ed Ta'amu remains on IR and it looks like he'll miss Saturday's game against Cleveland.

--Former Shock defensive back Nygel Rogers, now with Chicago, was the AFL defensive player of the week. Rogers intercepted a Brett Elliot pass in a win over Utah. He has a league-leading five picks on the season.
