Cherry's Chislers 30 Cabucki Crush 13

Rivers and Brees face off again in a FB

CHICAGO, ILL - In a relatively uneventful Fantasy Bowl the Chislers won one for the thumb and have claimed to be a true dynasty in the CFFL. It started out with all but one player for the Crush starting in the early games, while the Chislers only had Dez Bryant and Phillip Rivers (not a bad pair to only have playing). Rivers was back in the starting role as the Chisler QB after being benched the last two weeks in favor of Roethlisberger in which Rivers out performed him both weeks. The Crush was counting on Drew Brees putting up some big numbers as well as Jeffery, Watkins and Jennings. If not they would only have their kicker Matt Bryant left in the later games, who was at home playing for a playoff spot.

"psst..we won and I didn't do shit"

One of 2 Dez Bryant TDs!

The scoring got going as Dez Bryant of the Chislers, acquired in a trade with the Juggernauts, would haul in 2 TD passes, giving him 6 TDs in the post season! Rivers would come up empty. Brees could only manage one TD making the score 12-4. Then the Cowboys D would return an fumble for a TD to help the Crush pull with in 2, 12-10. Back up kicker for the Crush, Bailey, had 14 points and could have made it a bit more interesting. But nothing from Watkins, Jeffery, Jennings, Vereen, LaFell, That's a lot of goose eggs on the scoreboard as they would go and face the Green Bay Chislers in the second half (Lacy, Nelson, Crosby, and Green Bay D).

The Falcons looked pathetic and Matt Bryant only manged one FG for the Crush and would be all they would get. The Chislers however, still sweating out the fact that Matt Bryant could still kick more points, uncharacteristically got zeros from Nelson and Lacy. The Green Bay D would however step up and had a punt return for a TD to make the score 19-13, a solid 6 point lead.

Boldin was the Nail in Coffin

Boldin would catch a TD, oh wait there was a flag on the play...didn't count. Boldin would catch a TD...oh wait again, another flag...but this time it counted giving the Chislers a 25-13 lead. The nail in the coffin for sure. They would add a few more points from Crosby and a safety from their D,to make the final 30-13 giving the Chislers their 5th Fantasy Bowl Title, more than any other franchise in the history of the CFFL.

The Chislers did it not based on their superior fantasy football knowledge by making the right moves based on match ups, etc...In fact those moved hurt them as even when they put Rivers back in, he would score 0 while Roethlisberger would throw for 2 TDs. They did it with what no other team has...Chisler Luck!

Oh and Dez Bryant, who was the Playoff MVP scoring 36 points and was critical in their first round victory over the Crew. His three TD performance in the first round tied for most WR points in a playoff game (tied with 5 other players), and his 36 points tied Marvin Harrison for 2nd most points in the playoffs second to only the great Jerry Rice who had 48 back in 1987.

Bryant was MVP and glad the Juggs traded him

The Chislers' One for the Thumb was their 3rd title in 4 years. They won in 2011, 2012 and now 2014. It appears this decade belongs to the Chisler Dynasty. This was their 10th trip to the Fantasy Bowl and are now 5-5 in Fantasy Bowl. Oh and by the way they have won 3 straight Cherry Cups in the CFHL as well. No other owner has experienced such success in Fantasy Sports as Rick Cherry owner of the Cherry's Chislers and Checkers.
