Sorry for the delay, I was too busy celebrating Sumatra's first World League win. We are now 1-17! Get in! We are virgins no more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsGxbsQv5kc
There were some exciting games in week 2, please post your favorite plays in this thread. It is all about shining the spotlight on the best dots in GLB.
Let's take a look at this game. It was a great start for the Garudas as Tasker McLovin took the opening kickoff 57-yards putting Krungthep into scoring position in the opening seconds:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2838172
After two incompletions this sack by Z ob nearly pushed them out of FG range:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2838461
But Jerome Michaels nailed the 55-yard FG to put the home team up early.
Krungthep 3 - C-Town 0
Krungthep then forced a three and out and took over near midfield. But they could not capitalize when J.P. Holcomb was picked off by The Hood's Jon Patrick flipping field position:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2839198
Again the Garudas defense held strong and forced another punt. The offense hit a big when The Eastern King hit Spring Heeled Mack for a 57-yard connection. Mack did a great job shaking off the attempted tackle by John Perry:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2839390
That led to another FG and put Krungthep up by two fg's.
Krungthep 6 - C-Town 0
The Hood went right to work and connected on a WR screen from Negro Mamba to Josh Morgan for a 60-yard TD. Great blocking by HB-Juke King:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2839725
C-Town 7 - Krungthep 6
The Garudas were knocked back further when this sack by Eric Kandel forced a 3 and out punt:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2839877
The Hood picked up one first down but then Negro Mamba was stung by Bilious Venom poisoning any chance of further progress:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840103
The Garudas were tired of punting though and started to hit on medium passes. Two back to back 18-yard connections from Holcomb to Terrell Jones and Mack got them close:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840217
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840244
That led to another Michaels FG and the home team was back on top.
Krungthep 9 - C-Town 7
That fired up the defense for Krungthep, in particular Kinoshita who got two sacks in three plays to force a punt:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840405
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840454
But the return by Tasker McLovin shows how fickle lady luck was as Mad Bomber blew up the return and Ramando Reign jumped on the ball giving the Hood great field position:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840519
But steady offense in this game was hard to come by and the lead did not change despite the Hood getting to the Garuda 35 as Kevin Bulter missed a 52-yard attempt:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840628
The rest of the second quarter was just a bloody defensive battle as each team dug in and refused to budge. It was a case of anything your defensive dots do, mine can do better:
Junk Heap (Hood) sacks Holcomb forcing a punt:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840678
Coy Feline (Garudas) and Two Sula (Garudas) sack Mamba forcing a punt:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840833
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2840845
The Big Chopper (Hood) forces a fumble but Carlos Lehder recovers:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841277
Then Yubin Yakinov (Hood) catches Holcomb with his pants down for a sack:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841364
Just a ton of red here. DC's will love watching tape on this game. Another Hood three and out as Two Sula and Digger Dog get sacks:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841425
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841459
Finally some forward progress. Krungthep takes over on their 30 and Nathaniel Cornelius Robinson breaks off a long run, four dots have a chance to stop him but he runs over or through all of them. Then he is headed to the end-zone with a blocker next to him. Unfortunately, the blocker is a WR, who appears ready to spring Robinson for the TD but then he spots someone in the stands with a short short skirt and loses focus:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841540
That missed block costs the Garudas as the Hood defense makes a stand (like a boss) thanks to this forced fumble by Ramando Reign:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841567
Krungthep 12 - C-Town 7
The Hood gets the ball back with 1:20 left int he half, but two more sacks by Krungthep prevents them from getting anywhere, Sula and Venom were the culprits:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841746
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841808
Then right before the half the Garudas punt and force a fumble on the return but time runs out before they can take advantage of the turnover:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2841975
So it is 12-7 at the half. It gets worse for the Hood though when they are forced to punt after another Digger Dog sack:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2842115
The punt is a nice one as it pins the Garudas deep. But their goes that man again! Nathaniel Cornelius Robinson! YOU GET IN THE HOUSE THIS INSTANCE YOUNG MAN! Robinson does just that, breaking off a 95-yard TD run with the crowd going nuts:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2842306
Krungthep 19 - C-Town 7
Things look bleak for the visitors, but plenty of time left. The Hood's offense starts to hit and after two Mamba to The GOAT 20+ yard connections they get a FG to cut into the lead:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2842451
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2842544
Krungthep 19 - C-Town 10
Pimpin Made Easy smashes into Tasker McLovin causes another fumble, but Buzz McGilcrest recovers avoiding the turnover:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2842752
But after a three and out the Hood eats up yards and gets another Butler FG cutting the lead to a single score. Biggest play on the drive was the first one, a 16-yard pitch and catch between Mamba and Herman Moore:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2842901
Krungthep 19 - C-Town 13
The Hoods D is en fuego and forces another three and out. The 8th three and out for Krungthep so far. Hood starts driving, sensing the need to get a lead and stop forcing their defense to come up large. This sack by Mr. Blonde puts Hood in a hole:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843319
But Mamba converts a 3rd and 16 play by hitting Dash Smith for 19:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843349
Then this Digger Dog sack puts Hood in another long yards to go situation:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843374
But again, Mamba does the job hitting Webster Slaughter for 20 and a first down:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843408
A few plays later it is Larry Roadgrader Jr. pounding it in from 1-yard out to give the visitors the lead again. It is the first time since the 1st quarter that they have been in front, both times by just a point:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843494
C-Town 20 - Krungthep 19
That seems to wake up the Garudas offense who drive it all the way down to the Hood 10-yard line. But disaster strikes the Garudas when The Easter King trips over one of his blockers as he throws causing a wobbly duck that is picked off on the Hood's 3-yard line:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843821
The Hood use up 3 minutes of time before they have to punt. Krungthep takes over with 5:33 left in the game. Ex-Sumatran Sitdowns Cabana Boy forces a fumble but Odie Ot recovers it for the home team keeping the drive alive:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2843994
The Eastern King hits Lochlan McHale for 19-yards to get the team in FG range:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844011
Jerome Michaels III puts the kick through the uprights and Krungthep takes the lead with 2:48 left:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844075
Krungthep 22 - C-Town 20
The Hood takes over and get one good connection, this one a Mamba to Slaughter hit for 26-yards:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844171
But they can't get past midfield and with 1:46 left int he game they punt. The Garudas take over and they only need one first down to ice the game. First down Robinson runs for 1 yard, nice tackle by Mark Gastineau:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844246
Then 2nd down, it is Robinson again, this time for 2.5, Gastineau again on the tackle:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844266
3rd and 6 sees Aquib Onyegbule deflect a pass to force another three and out:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844275
1:30 left in the game, The Hood take over after this 22-yard punt return by Brand0n Beachum near midfield:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844327
After two incompletions Mamba drops back and hits Todd Roadgrader for 16-yards:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844375
That gives them the ball at the Krungthep 35 with :48 left and just one timeout. They try passes on first and 2nd down but they are incomplete. OAI masterpiece has them running on 3rd and 10 to make the FG a little easier, it works, they pickup 5.5 crucial yards when Alkyd Primer bulls his way through:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844418
Then the Butler does it as he calmly nails this game winnign 47-yard FG:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1698472&pbp_id=2844434
HOOD WINS!
