Game Reports
Sinister Ministers 39 Triple Threat 23
Like many a game from the memorable 2007 BCS Championship, Sinister Ministers (10-6) continued their
late season surge with a stunning upset of All-But-Champion-Elect, Triple Threat (12-4). Turns
out the “single” threat was Tom Brady. Shut down him and the rest of the line-up crumbles. At
least in Fantasy Football. The sudden downturn of this game not withstanding, it was still
an excellent year for the third-year team.
The Ministers got a combined 31 points from three waiver wire pick-ups, (available to anyone,
even people with vermin-related team names and or a claimed ignorance of the rules), Rosenfels,
Grant, and Bironas. “People gave up on this team early”, opined seldom-started, Maurice Morris,
”but now their unhatched chickens are killed with stones in the hand.”
Ebonic Plague 43 Whohawho 34
As their spiritual leader watched joyfully from the press box, Ebonic Plague (9-7) used the
foot of Packer Place Kicker (and duel last-named), Mason Crosby, to Souper Bowl XV, and
possible history. The Ebs are one of four team that have won two Souper Bowls and get the
opportunity to break the tie, despite a six-player starting line-up with no real stars.
For Whohawho (8-8), their run came to an end, but they looked solid in another game played
under difficult conditions, in this case volcano ash from nearby Heyoiwantolayou Mountain.
Anorexic Santas 36 Injury Prone 20
In the third meeting of two mediocre teams, Anorexic Santas (7-9) broke the season tie with
a win over Injury Prone (5-10). The win allowed the sometimes hot, but usually cold, Anos to
continue another a week while the Prones were put out of their misery with their eighth straight
loss.
Fighting Sioux 30 Buck Snort 21
Bouncing back from a late-season slump, Fighting Sioux (11-5) used a stout defense to stay
alive and oust Buck Snort (5-10) from the tournament. More importantly, it allowed the Fight
coach to get bragging rights over their ancient rival, Snorts.
Catholic Nun and the Posse 34 Backyard Bullies 13
Staggering towards the Toilet Bowl, Catholic Nun and the Posse (9-7) continued the home favorite
trend of the week, knocking out Backyard Bullies (5-10). All Day, Adrian Peterson, outscored
the entire Bull line-up. The Vikings appeared to have actually done something right at a draft.
That will take some getting used to.
Lay Z Boy 40 Tame Your Weasel 28
Lead by Favre and LT, Lay Z Boy (9-7) continued their march towards a record-tying third
Toilet Bowl. Tame Your Weasel (4-11), a Souper Bowl winner only a few seasons ago, is now a
franchise in complete disarray.
