MDSSC - Fall Flag Football: Week 8 Recap

Well another week is in the books and the season is winding down. This next week has some irrelevant SEC games and some important play-in games in the Big 8. My full write up will be on Thursday as always. On to this last weekend.

8:00 AM:

All Madden (6-1) vs The Victors (7-0): This flag football game lived up to my hype. Going into it I knew that All Madden was missing some key players (shout out to #42 & #24) but they didn't back down and took the game to OT. Unfortunately, that is where the magic ended. The Victors stopped All Madden on their try and then sealed it with a 2nd and goal TD for a 40-34 win.

Hit Squad (2-5) vs Untouchables (5-2): The streak is now five in a row for the Untouchables! The score was 27-18. DJ's squad has had a tough last few weeks of flag football, but after watching them play All Madden later in the day; I know that they can compete. However, I have to use this area to give props to the Untouchables. (3 votes in the poll) They have marched through this season after losing to Pain and the Victors early on. They have All Madden this weekend...more on that Thursday.


Menace (1-6) vs The Movement (3-4): The score was 64-8...The Movement. Not much else to say here. I didn't get to see this game but that is a lopsided score. Maybe The Movement will start to live up to their name from this point? I did see Mac there on Saturday. Maybe he brought some much needed leadership. 

9:15 AM

Revolution (3-4) vs No Response (0-7): The final score of this football game was 41-21. The score at half time was 28-7. All I can say is that I am proud of our guys for plugging along. Revolution played well and was able to win the turnover battle. Revolution has the athletes to do well in the flag football playoffs. For them it is just a matter of whether they have enough guys show up. 

Beltway Bombers (6-1) vs Hit Men (5-2):  Thanks for proving me wrong on the shoot out comment guys. The score of this one was 26-13 in favor of the Bombers. This seems like more of a defensive battle that resulted in the winner having the most turnovers... 

10:30 AM 

Hit Squad (2-5) vs All Madden (6-1): All Madden had some injuries to deal with in this game going iron man against the always prepared and well stocked Hit Squad. The final score of this game was 33-13. Brady Quinn resurfaced this weekend playing QB for the Hit Squad. Although he had some stellar interceptions (both TD stopping Endzone interceptions) he threw more. This resulted in a win for All Madden.

Warriors (1-6)  vs WTF! (5-2): The score of this game was 36-14. The spread was 14 in WTF!'s favor. They covered. That is all I know on this flag football game.

Able Danger (6-1) vs Circus Show (1-6): The score of this game was 30-7.. Able Danger keeps rollin and lock up their #1 seed for this weekend.

11:45 AM

Beltway Bombers (6-1) vs Circus Show (1-6): 48-12...Circus just had a tough go of it this year. And it is only going to get tougher. They have a rematch with Beltway on Saturday.

No Response (0-7) vs The Express (1-6): I don't even want to talk about this.. Good luck in the playoffs Express. Good game too. For anyone that cares the final score was 37-28.

Hit Men (5-2) vs Warriors (1-6): The Warriors tightened up on defense to keep this flag football game close. The victory, however, was for the Hit Men...26-20.
