GAME OF THE WEEK: ChristChurch Fighting Maori (7) v. Grey Bandits (14): The Grey Bandits took a commanding 14-0 lead in the first half of the game. But Jughead's Maori team are notoriously slow starters. Much like the old professional wrestler, Greg "the Hammer" Valentine, the ChristChurch Fighting Maori only become stronger and more potent the more punishment they take and the longer the game drags on. So, it comes as no surprise that, as the game was winding down, all of the momentum had swung from the Grey Bandits to the Maori. Down by only one touchdown, the Maori launched a successful final drive and were only 11.5 yards away from the end zone when time ran out. The final two plays saw (QB) Peach Stealing Monkey break off a mad 10.5 yard scramble up the middle, but with no time outs and the inexplicable shuffling in of (QB) Rick E. Bauer to run the spike the ball play, the clock ticked down to zero before the ball could be snapped. The Maori had fought so hard to get back into the game in the second half, but there just was not enough time to tie the game up.
OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: (QB) Fiber One -owned by Mat0215: Judging by her avatar, this young lady may be straining too hard. But, once she left the restroom, (QB) Fiber One dominated against a weak defense and threw for 249 yards and 7 touchdowns with no interceptions and no sacks. Now imagine how much more efficient she could be if her receivers did not drop her perfectly thrown passes 17 times.
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: (MLB) Callus Cur -owned by Festus: This guy is the general of the Minnesota Reaper's Defense. He led his team to an impressive shut-out of the Blue Moon Coffee House offense and had a team leading 11 tackles and 3 tackles for loss.
SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: (WR) ALLAbout That Action -owned by Jegerween: This is a very SPECIAL returner. He wears a huge oversized safety helmet and plays with his Thunder Cats action figures on the sidelines until its time for him to come into the game. But, once he takes the field, he has a unique combination of speed and elusive moves that makes him one of the must dangerous players in the league.
