WEEK 8:
The ROXB WRANGLERS defeated the CROATANS(135.6 - 130.8)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Roxborough Wranglers and the Croatans. Normally, I lean towards Monday night madness for GOW honors. But the was tied for the closest game and it involved a Money team and was the higher scoring game of the 2 4.8-point games. The Wranglers were led by an MVP performance by Brady and Kupp (Wow!! Have these 2 over-performed their draft spots). I am sure Brady will be happy he won the SWFFL weekly MVP. He may have to make room on the mantle by dumping one of those Super Bowl trophies. The Croatans were led by Tannehill, Henderson and Pittman in the loss. In a rarity in such a close game, there was only one Croatan on the bench who outperformed a starter. Bullock beat out Greg the Leg by 6 point which would have been enough to get the Croatans back over that Money line. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 8:
The BODY SHOP defeated the JELLY BEANS(126.5 - 121.7)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Body Shop squeaked out a 4.8 point. Victory against the Jelly Beans. The Shop was led by Stafford, Harris and Brown as they inched closer to that .500 line. The Beans were led by Wentz, Cooper, Metcalf and Gonzales. A Conner or Tonyan start over Raymond would have had the Beans out of the Basement. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 8:
The BLACK & BLUE defeated the GOOD FELLAS(114.2 - 63.0)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Black & Blue Attack kept on rolling on as they climbed to 8-0. They were led by Godwin, as they only scored 114.2 points this week. They were definitely vulnerable this week. However, they faced the normally high-scoring Good Fellas, who forgot how to score this week. The had no 20-point scorers and Hurts was the only starter to barely reach double digits. I am not sure but I do not think I have seen a 63 since we switched to yardage scoring. I checked and since we joined CBS the Good Fellas also have the lowest score (39 in 2006) and the Croatans put up a 61.8 last year, so apparently, I do not remember so well. The Fellas had some slightly better options, bit even their best lineup would have left the Black & Blue undefeated. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 8:
The DREAM TEAM defeated the FIGHTIN' IRISH(107.1 - 94.3)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Dream Team’s 19.5 point lead was enough to hold off the Fightin’ Irish and Kelce on Monday night. That is usually a bit much for a TE, but Kelce is not your normal TE. However, the CHIEFS do not seem to be the CHIEFS this year. The Dream Team was led by Mixon as the climbed back to .500 and just outside the Money Line. The Irsih was led by Herbet, Ekeler and Bobby Trees. A Cooks and Mooney start would have had the Commish crying in his Tuesday morning coffee. Pre-Game Hype:

WEEK 8:
The M. TAKERS defeated the B ASSASSINS(141.4 - 126.4)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Money takers and a 50.4 pt. lead held off the defending champions Black Assassins, the cheetah and Butker. Hill had a nice game (only Assassin over 20), butker was about average and the Takers finished du with a comfortable 15-point victory as they also grabbed their first helmet of the year. The Takers were led by Allen and Samuel as they held on to 2nd place still 2 games behind the Black & Blue. Pre-Game Hype:
