CFFL Week 11

CFFL Salute to Service

This week in the CFFL...A turn of events, and then another turn of events between the father/son battle of Crew and Killers...The Titans tell the Cocktails to shut their mouth....Crush lay a 50-burger on the Ferrets...Dragons come from behind thanks to replay...and Bees and Krauts have a kicker dual...

Killers 28  Wrecking Crew 25
The Crew's season finally officially and mercifully comes to an end.  This after quite a turn of events.  It appeared the Killers had the game won after Agholor caught a TD pass to put the game away, but after further review his knee was down, basically on the next play it was  Jeffery with the TD catch instead plus a 2 point conversion to put the Crew up 25-22 with only the Falcons D left for Killers.  But then another turn of events, the Falcon D pick up a fumble on Monday night and return it for a TD and the Killers win!  This keeps the Killers playoff hopes alive and for all intent and purposes crushes the Crew's hopes, not that they had any...

Titans 38  Cocktails 13
After bad mouthing the Cocktails last week for their lack of line up changes, not putting in a starting defense and not knowing about Gillislee being benched the Titans told the Cocktails to shut their mouth and fear the orange shorts giving them a beat down 38-13.  Good old Tom had 12 points and Lutz had 14 for the Titans.  The super stars of the Cocktails were held scoreless (Prescott, Woods, Gronkowski, and Witten). 

Good old Tom

Crush 50  Ferrets 39
The Crush laid a 50-burger on the Ferrets after taking a quick 32 point lead on Thursday night from Roethlisberger and Boswell who both scored 16.  The Ferrets didn't go away quietly scoring 39 points that would have beat most teams, led by 2 big TDs from Allen.  But the 2 McCoy scores were the nails in the coffin for the Ferrets who's playoff hopes are slipping away.

Dragons 30  Roulette 28
What happened to when a TD was a TD?  The Roulette are wondering that exact same thing after a replay basically cost them the game vs. the Dragons.  The Roulette led the game 28-20 going into the Monday night game thanks to 18 absolutely huge points from Nick Novak "Disease".  Dragons had to rely on their kicker Matt Bryant and he had pulled them to with in one point 28-27.  It was looking like it wasn't going to be enough when late in the game the Falcons scored a TD run from Coleman, but upon further review, which seems to always be the case, it was overturned and they had to settle for a chip shot FG from Bryant.  Kick good!  Game, set, match for Dragons who remain in a 3 way tie for first in the South with the Mayhem and Titans. 

Nice dome...

Killer Bees 23  Krauts 21

Walsh sick, knowing he may be hitting the showers...

It appeared for a while that neither team wanted to score any points.  But as the four o'clock games rolled around Gostkowski got things hopping kicking 15 points for the Killer Bees including a 62 yarder! (and none of that bonus points for long FG crap in this league).  The score was 15-0 after the Sunday day games...brutal.  Wentz was able to bring the Krauts to within 5 points 15-10 going into Monday night.  Matt Ryan would battle the Blair Walsh Project 8-11 making the game 23-21 with one last chance for Blair Walsh to win the game with a 52 yard FG with no time left.  Surely he would make it.  He was known for his 50 yard accuracy.  He lined up, booted it, right down the middle....but came up just a few inches short.  Game over and the Bees survive.  Don't be surprised if Walsh is found in some remote camp, taking a shower...

Around the league...Chislers defeat the kicker-less Bums 45-22 and league is investigating for possible collusion between the Bums and Chislers.  Or maybe Bums just don't give a shit anymore, in either case the Bums days are numbered.  And might I say that the Chislers have returned to the top of the North and may be a team to watch...This thanks to the Sinistars hammering the Animals 42-18 led by Wilson's 15 points including TD passes and 2 point toss to Graham.  This connection is getting hot, look out for Sinistars as well...Mayhem had little trouble with the Juggernauts getting 12 points from Murray, 8 from Brees, and 6 each from Coleman and Jones...

Player of the Week:  Antonio Brown, Chislers, 18 points
