Week 8 Recap

Game of the Week: We Got Big TDs (78) @ Safety Blitz (75)

We Got Big TDs went on the road and pulled out the come from behind victory over Safety Blitz in a wild and crazy affair. We Got Big TDs pulled out the victory behind a touchdown run from Jackie Battle and a never say die attitude. "I have always enjoyed coming from behind," quipped Coach Tara Campbell after a brief handshake at midfield. Safety Blitz moved to 0-4 all time in games in which they start a backup QB, as John Beck struggled mightily on Sunday. Coach Phillip Campbell pointed to a six point swing that occured within a matter of 15 seconds, as Stephen Gostkowski missed a 42 yard field goal and Beck threw an interception just moments later. Rumors of sexual favors being wagered between the coaches are currently being investigated by the commissioner's office.

Carmichael's Crusaders (82) @ Riley's Vikings (97)

Carmichael's Crusaders and Riley's Vikings both saw streaks come to a screaching halt on Sunday, albeit with alternate perspectives. Carmichael's Crusaders saw their five game winning streak snapped and blew an opportunity to secure a tie atop the Lightning Division. Coach Ethan Hudson repeatedly denied that his team was looking ahead to next week's opponent despite plausible evidence that he was. Riley's Vikings secured the victory behind a 28 point effort from Michael Vick, who played well after his bye week. Coach Adam Warren was showered with gatorade after the game and seemed pleased to be playing his home games on the campus of TSU while his relocation project is completed.

Toejam Football (77) @ Tebow's Youth Group (68)

Toejam Football went on the road and pulled out a big win over Tebow's Youth Group. Toejam Football received a breakout performance from Reggie Bush, who eclipsed the 100 yard mark for the 1st time this season. Coach Zach Maddux was seen beating Tony Romo with a paint stirring stick at halftime of his game against the Eagles, which caused Romo to play much better in the 2nd half. Tebow's Youth Group suffered through byes and injuries in Week 8, but still appeared to be in good position entering MNF. Much to the chagrin of Coach Daniel Campbell, Philip Rivers and Antonio Gates could not muster up enough offense to pull out the victory in front of the home crowd.

Young Gun Football (79) @ Illegal Alien Babies (103)

Young Gun Football left both their green cards and their playbook at home in falling on the road to Illegal Alien Babies. YGF was forced to leave all of their bye week players in custody of the Mexican Federales with the exception of Tony Gonzalez, as they all lost their green cards in a late night trip to Ken's Gold Club. Gonzalez, however, slipped through the security system as the Federales believed that he was an undercover Mexican agent. Illegal Alien Babies pleased their chanting crowd with a an explosive offensive performance, led by a 25 point effort from the Bengals' defense. Coach Darrell Campbell was seen chanting and eating a taco in the crowd at halftime, as this one was over well before the final whistle blew.

Play Action Pass (53) @ The Pessimists (101)

Play Action Pass struggled early and often in falling to The Pessimists. PAP could get nothing going on the ground, as both of their running backs failed to register a point. Coach David Looper is relieved that the bye weeks are temporarily over and hopes his team can return to its full potential in the upcoming weeks. The Pessimists remained tied atop the Thunder Division with the blowout victory. Coach BJ Hudson appeared to be angered by the fact that all of the other league managers picked against his unit to win this weekend, telling reporters that "they can all get a big f-you!"

Maddawg's Tight End (91) @ Campbell's Cougars (142)

Maddawg's Tight End was at the mercy of Campbell's Cougars pent up explosion in Week 8. Maddawg's Tight End was led by a monster 31 point effort from LeSean McCoy. Coach Miranda Maddux is hopeful that standout receiver Andre Johnson can return next week after missing the previous four weeks with a hamstring injury. Campbell's Cougars snapped a long losing streak with an offensive explosion that would have made McSweeney's New Orleans woman proud. Coach Matthew Campbell was ecstatic after the game, telling reporters "I told you I was gonna spank that tight end!"
