Week 9 Preview

Game of the Week: Young Gun Football @ The Hail Marys

This non-divisional matchup pits two teams who are separated by only one game in the standings. Young Gun Football comes into this game off of a tough loss and looking to maintain a hold on first place in the Lightning Division. Coach Jason Young will welcome back quarterback Eli Manning and running back Ahmad Bradshaw following their bye week. On the home sideline, The Hail Marys enter this contest riding a league-high two game winning streak. Coach Tara Campbell welcomes back Peyton Hillis to her backfield following his bye week and is hopeful that the Vikings' defense can wreak havoc against the turnover prone Arizona Cardinals. This game could come down to who scores the most touchdowns for the Patriots this weekend-BenJarvus Green-Ellis or Danny Woodhead.

Game of the Week II: Charlie's Redrockets @ One-Man Wolf Pack

Charlie's Redrockets have won two straight games and are hot on the heels of first place in the Thunder Division while the One-Man Wolf Pack is coming off a huge victory to reclaim a stake of first place in the Lightning Division. Coach Matthew Campbell is hoping for a big day from quarterback Aaron Rodgers and a team effort from the rest of his starters as he looks to extend his winning streak to three games. On the home sideline, Coach Zach Maddox has six players projected to score in double figures as he hopes to overwhelm the Redrockets with his playmaking ability. Look for this game to be decided on MNF.

MyPoopIsRonnie&Brown @ The Pessimists

The Poop squad is coming off another tough loss and looking to get back on track in negative town against The Pessimists. Coach Daniel Campbell is hoping for a big performance from his running back stable and continued strong play from his defense to pull off the victory. For The Pessimists, Coach BJ Hudson is looking for continued improvement from rookie running back Ryan Matthews and is hopeful that the big toe of Jahvid Best can continue to hold up in Detroit. Look for this game to be decided by the number of turnovers created by the Pittsburg defense on MNF.

Illegal Alien Babies @ Riley's Vikings

For the Illegal Alien Babies, Coach Darrell Campbell hopes to have found the missing pieces of the puzzle as he plugs Mario Manningham and Jacob Tamme into his starting lineup for the first time this season. If Josh Freeman and LaGarrette Blount continue to produce as they have in recent weeks, the Aliens could be a team to watch in the second half of the season. Riley's Vikings, in first place in the Thunder Division, will look to Tom Brady and a three wide receiver set to continue to be the divisional pace-setter. Coach Adam Warren is hopeful that his New England defense can take advantage of rookie quarterback Colt McCoy and the Cleveland Browns. The key to this game may be backup running backs Willis McGahee versus Mike Tolbert.

Safety Blitz @ the Hit Squad

These two teams are preparing to do battle with bragging rights of Molina's swing on the line. Safety Blitz enters this contest on the heels of a narrow loss and needing a win to maintain pace in the Thunder Division. Coach Phillip Campbell welcomes back Roddy White and LeSean McCoy following bye weeks and is hopeful for another big day from his Chicago Bears' defense. The Hit Squad welcomes back their three-headed monster at running back, Arian Foster, Ray Rice, and Cedric Benson as they fight to stay in the race in the Lightning Division. Coach David Looper is hopeful that Michael 'The Dog Catcher' Vick can run wild against the Indianapolis defense on Sunday afternoon. This game should come down to Benson's ability to run the football against the Steelers' defense on MNF.

Mike and Mike

In an ironic move this week, Coach Daniel Campbell dropped Seattle wide receiver Mike Williams from his roster following a lack of production. His nameplate in the locker room was not removed, however, as his replacement was none other than Mike Williams of the Tampa Bay Bucaneers. When asked about the coincidence, Coach Daniel Campbell stated, 'I don't know what the hell you're talking about.'

Translator Controversy

There seems to be some major communication issues between BHFFC league members and Coach Darrell Campbell of the Illegal Alien Babies. All of Coach Campbell's team slogans and dialogue is printed in Spanish, yet none of the other league members understand what he is saying, therefore making communication very difficult. Following the lead of Ozzie Guillen, Coach Campbell has filed a petition for more leniant translation rules in the BHFFC.
