MDSSC: Winter Flag Football - PLAYOFFS

Guys, 


This is going to be quick. You guys have waited long enough this week and I just haven't had the time. 


All Games are a must see.... it's the playoffs right? Well there will be some lopsided games possibly so I will just go with my favorite Saturday games. 


8:30am
#2 Hitmen vs #3 TD's: I heard that TD's has a Megatron type receiver that could stick it to the Hitmen. It's time for Roger to step up though. I heard he may have taken on a Cheeseburger challenge today. Hope that doesn't render him ineffective. (Hitmen -3)


9:45am
If the favorites win at 8:30 it sets up two great games: Beltway vs Habitual and Hit Squad vs Hitmen. Both are must see and (even) as far as I'm concerned. 


11:00am
#2 Fear Boners vs #3 Menace: Menace has been up and down this season as well as the Fear Boners and they didn't get to play last week. However, I like them coming off a bye. (Fear Boners -2)


#2 Karma vs #3NR: This game has all the makings of a blowout. Karma's captain even told me he predicts 30-6  and he could be right considering they beat us 24-6 last time. It's our only chance to stop a power team. (no spread)


1:30pm
#2 All Madden vs #3 Run Dem Pockets: This game should be a second round game..these two teams are pretty even but if All Madden has all their guys show up I feel like they should win. (All Madden -1)


2:45pm
If all the favorites win I like Untouchables vs Mayhem and Victors vs All Madden. Both games will be a nice way to end the weekend...for two teams at least. 


Good Luck this weekend guys.

MDSSC: Winter Flag Football - Week 4-5

For a little fun:

Baltimore 17 Pittsburgh 14

New England 28 New York 14

Chicago 35 Seattle 7

Green Bay 27 Atlanta 21

Thanks for your patience this week gentlemen. I was out of commission last week so I missed all of the action. And now this week, I don't know if some of the games are going to happen with the big game coming up on Saturday. Here is what I do know... 

9:45am 

Hitmen vs X-Factor: This will be a test to see which half X-Factor belongs the top or bottom of Pro... Hitmen need a rebound too after that loss and I heard Roger shaved his beard?! (Hitmen -8)

Danger vs Pain: Pain has one loss and Danger has one win....Is Danger trying to pull the whole 2 wins in the regular season then storm to the Championship move again? I don't think so. They need to shape up. (Pain -4)

12:15pm

Warriors vs Closet Flags: Both teams are at .500 which one gets on the winning side? (CF -4)

All Madden vs Untouchables: It doesn't matter who is missing this game should be a decent one. (Untouchables -2)

Some Semi Pro love... 

11:00am 

Karma vs Menace: Should be physical... (Karma -7)

1:30pm

NR vs  Fear Boners: some love for my team now at least 7 of you better show up!!!! No spreads on my games... 

Good Night and Good luck...

MDSSC: Week 3 - Games of the Week

Okay guys, as promised, my games of the week. 

8:30am 

Shire (1-1) vs Habitual Linesteppers (0-1) 

I like this game because instead of Shire being 0-2 like the website says, they are 1-1 after putting up 44 on Pink last week. Habitual did win a championship not to long ago (Summer I believe) and I'm not sure they ever matched up with the team formally known as Shire, then The Movement and now Shire. Not knowing the new Shire team or Habitual I am going to say that Shire tosses the rock to Peazy in this one for a narrow win. (Shire -2)

9:45am 

RDP (1-1) vs Balls Deep (1-1)

Both teams are coming off tough losses and should make for a great game. RDP as mentioned last night has a strong armed QB and has moved the Side Arm Speedster to rusher and receiver. Balls Deep can counter with their quick rusher and strong armed QB. The key to this game is who commits the first turnover. I have no idea who to pick in this game. Coin flipped.. it was Tails (RDP -1)

11:00am

Victors (0-2) vs Danger (1-1)

This series is turning into a good one... Danger got the best of the Victors last season and has drawn them this week after an interesting 2 weeks for Big Blue. Can the Victors get of the schneid this week? Or is this like when the Cowboys won their 5th ring in 97 and started losing every year after that? Danger went 2-5 last season and then snuck into the playoffs to take down the house.. I see them stunning the Victors and continuing their high. (Danger -3)

Other games of note... All Madden vs Fuzion at 2:45, Karma vs Rustyat 1:30, HitSquad vs xFactor at 12:15 and maybe Pain vs Mayhem bright and early at 8:30. 

Bundle up tomorrow, the high is 34...I can only imagine what it will feel like at 8 in the morning.Good luck out there guys. 

DON'T FORGET TO EMAIL ME AS A REP/COACH FOR YOUR TEAM IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY. I WANT TO PUT TOGETHER A TEXT LIST AND GET EVERYTHING RUNNING A LITTLE SMOOTHER.

MDSSC - Fall Flag Football - Week 4

First off, sorry for the lack of posts lately. Long story, but after looking at my stats I noticed that there are still some of you loyal readers out there. So what the hell, let's get this thing going again.


So what has happened in the first couple of weeks? Well the Untouchables are undefeated, TTB still wants love, and Able Danger stepped up their game with a big win over the Victors. So with that being said, let's just start over and jump into this weeks games.

8:30am

Danger (1-2) vs Untouchables (2-0): Danger gets another tough test against the Summer defending champs. This should be an interesting game. Danger all high on their win over the Victors and now the Untouchables coming to work like they do every week. I say Untouchables stays undefeated. (Untouchables -6)


Tarheels (0-3) vs Victors (2-1): Tarheels are a hybrid of a few teams and I think I saw Jacked Up's QB out there last week. However, the Victors are going to be looking for someone to take their aggression out on this weekend in MudBowl 2010. (Victors -9)

Hitmen (1-1) vs X-Factor (1-2): Hitmen has a consistent squad these days and X-Factor is basically the Warriors. Sticking with Roger "I Love Me Some Me" and the Hitmen. (Hitmen -12)

9:45am

Express (1-2) vs All Madden (2-1): All Madden had a tough loss last week against our rival Untouchables team. I believe that Express gave TTB a win too. This should be a decent game. In All Madden's championship run in the Spring, Express gave us a loss. Express has some play makers and we have a few ourselves. I don't like picking my games so I will leave it to you to decide...

Hit Squad (1-2) vs Regulators (1-2): If I remember right, Hit Squad got off the schneid last week. Now they have an opportunity to make it a streak. I believe they will this week. (Hit Squad -4)


Bulldawgs (3-0)  vs Karma (0-3): Have no idea. Bulldawgs started off with some big wins early this season. Haven't seen them play. I have yet to catch a Karma game... Based on Bulldawgs first couple: (Bulldawgs -6)

11:00am

Untouchables (2-0) vs TTB (2-0): Okay TTB... I have received a few anonymous comments over the last few months about love. You showed that you had the ability to win in Pro and did it this Summer. You have stepped up to All Pro and beat up on Able Danger and Express. Now comes a tougher test. Untouchables is coming off an 8:30 game, so hopefully they have time to clean themselves up and get dry before playing you. I am going out on a limb here and because of TTB's speed and Untouchables usually only bringing 8-9 guys... I am going to call this one (EVEN). That's your love for this week. If you beat Untouchables. I will make sure there is a post up on Sunday. You have my word.


Balls Deep (2-0) vs Closet Flags (2-1): Last week all I saw from Adam was deep balls. Well guess who else likes to show off his arm...Balls Deeps's QB. This should be a good game with Balls Deep winning. (Balls Deep -5)

12:15pm

TTB (2-0) vs Pain (1-2): TTB will have just finished a tough game and have to turn it around to play a Pain team that dropped 45 on the Tarheels. I will say this one is closer than normal due to TTB's double header... (TTB -4)


Here's to hoping we get to play on Saturday. Have a good Friday!

MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - Playoffs Week 1

Well the first week of the playoffs is over. There were some surprising results from this weekend's football games; so let's get right to it. 

ALL PRO: 

8:30am: 

#5W Scores vs #4E Jacked Up: Well Jacked Up's QB informed them on Wednesday that he was going to be at a wedding on Saturday and wouldn't be there this weekend. That seriously screws up plans for them to march through the playoffs. They had a tough time with a new looking crew that Scores brought out but in the end, they held on to win the game with veteran John Money at the helm. However, they didn't cover. 

#4W CCC vs #5E Franchise: I don't know the score of this game but I know that CCC won by 7 or so and controlled the lead throughout the game. Is the the end of Franchise Hollywood already? 

11:00am:

#2W LBH2 vs #3E Fuzion: I didn't get to see this game but I heard it was sloppy. LBH held an 18-6 lead at halftime to relinquish it towards the end. Apparently, it was 25-18 by way of Fuzion when LBH scored late to make it 25-24. They went for the win (2pt) and failed. Fuzion moves on. 

#1E Untouchables vs #4E Jacked Up: JU may have been able to survive against scores without Ryan but they lost Khalid in that game too. This one wasn't pretty. 32-0 I believe. 

#1W Victors vs #4W CCC: I don't know the final score of this one but I do know it had to be one of the longest games ever. It went into double OT before the Victors failed to stop CCC. The #4 seed upsets one of my favorites on day one. 

#3W All Express vs #2E Mayhem: My doubt of All Express must ignited something in them or they just brought some more guys out. Just kidding. Either way I heard they won handily and are looking forward to their game or games next weekend. 

ALL PRO GAMES THIS WEEK: 

9:45am - Untouchables vs Fuzion 

9:45am - All Express vs CCC

PRO: 

This playoff bracket was pretty routine... TTB crushed the Spartans, Hit Sqaud (another team without their QB) crushed Menace, Hitmen won although they had to make a comeback in the final minutes and Shire crushed Go 4 Broke... now that was the first round. 

12:15pm: TTB vs Hit Squad: Hit Squad was the only team that was able to give TTB an L this season and it's unfortunate that they had to play a revengeful TTB squad without a QB. It was no match either. TTB locked it down and won 42-6 or something like that. Brady Quinn must have flown off to Denver to win his spot back from Tuck Tebow. 

12:15pm: Shire vs Hitmen: They had an exciting game two weeks ago and this was almost as exciting. Hitmen clawed back from behind again today as they did two weeks ago. It wasn't enough this time and the air was taken out of their sails on a nice one-handed interception by the one and only MAC. Shire won by 3 after giving up a last second score. 

PRO CHAMPIONSHIP: 

11:00AM - TTB vs Shire (Last week TTB routed Shire last week.. What Shire team will show up for the 'ship?)

I have no idea what happened in Semi-Pro other than Balls Deep routed the Tigers and are in the Championship game at 11:00am on Saturday...

More to come on Thursday or Friday...

MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - PLAYOFFS

Playoffs are here... time to get rolling on my predictions. Mike updated the brackets, so I will go off that and just give my predictions for tomorrow in All Pro and Pro. Semi... you already know my thoughts. 

**Forgot to Post this. I have a Fall team (Closet Flags) is looking for some individuals. They will be in Pro or Semi pro. If you're interested give Adam a call at 410.967.0673. Thanks!**

*DON'T FORGET TO VOTE IN THE ALL-PRO POLL ----------->>>

Here we go: 
8:30am: #5W Scores vs #4E Jacked Up: Scores had to forfeit last week. They are win-less this season which, unfortunately, isn't going to change here. Jacked Up wins easy. (Jacked Up -14)

8:30am: #5E Franchise vs #4W CCC: From what I heard CCC waxed Franchise last week. Not sure what to think about this game. Both teams played multiple games last week and it was Franchises third of the day when they ran into CCC. Flipped a coin and Franchise was the lucky winner.. (Franchise -1)


11:00am: #2W LBH2 vs #3 Fuzion: LBH seemed a little out of sorts against Franchise last week. A lot of blame was going around. Fuzion on the other hand played as a team to beat the Victors. Fuzion also beat LBH 30-20 earlier this season... (Fuzion -6.5)


11:00am: #2E Mayhem vs #3W All Express: This should be a great game. Considering Kosty and Nick's remarks, I assume they will have their full squad* there. With that being said, I believe Mayhem should all be accounted for. All Express took it to Untouchables last week but I recently heard that Untouchables started the game off with 7. That let a little air out of the balloon for me. Mayhem is consistent and has performed well as always. Taking my bias out of the equation I say: (Mayhem -1.5)


11:00am: #1E Untouchables vs #4E Jacked Up: Untouchables beat JU easily in the first week of the season, but I don't think that game means anything here. Untouchables lost their first game of the season last week with JU coming out of a 3game week 2-1. This game honestly depends on how JU's QB is playing. I give him two modes Football mode and Baseball mode...if he is in football mode this game will be great and they could win due to their size and physical play - Baseball mode? They get crushed. Either way I think Untouchables wins... (Untouchables -4.5)


11:00am: #1W Victors vs Mayhem/All Express: Victor's win over AE doesn't amount to much because I don't know which team the Victors played. The Victors didn't get to see Mayhem this season. Regardless,  I think Bill has his best team in years and one of the best in the league. Sorry for the pressure Bill. (Victors -4 over either)

PRO: 

9:45am (All Games)

#1W TTB vs #4W Spartans: Spartans have barely been able to field a team lately. My boy Ray needs to blow that team up and bring in some new blood for next season. This will be a warm up game for TTB. (TTB -21)

#2W Hit Squad vs #3E Menace: Hit Squad is rolling and they should in this game. Not sure if Menace will get more than 8 there. (Squad -16)

#2E Hitmen vs #3 Bulldawgs: I have yet to see the Bulldawgs play this year but I don't think it matters. Hitmen will roll in this game with their tiny football. (Hitmen -14)

#1W Shire vs #4 Go4Broke: Shire has been an interesting team these last two weeks. They better get back to being ONE cohesive unit. Luckily they have a struggling G4B to match up against. Unfortunately, G4B just hasn't been able to get things going this season. (Shire -13.5)

12:15pm: 

#1E TTB vs #2W Hit Squad: This should be a great game! Hit Squad gave TTB their lone loss this season. I might just have to flip a coin here but instead I am going for the upset. (Hit Squad -1.5)

#1W Shire vs #2E Hitmen: Another great game here... Two weeks ago it almost went into overtime had Hitmen not given up a last second TD and Conversion. The conversion is what won the game for Shire after Hitmen erased a 26-13 deficit in the 2nd half. I don't even know what to put here but if Clyde makes one mistake and his team turns on him as they often do...Hitmen will win. I say: (Shire -1)

That's it for today... I will wrap it up on Sunday or Monday and give you my predictions before next weeks Semi's and Championship.

MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - Regular Season Wrap-up

Alright gentlemen, and I use that term loosely...the season is over and now it is time for the playoffs. Update on the Pro playoffs. It is now and 8 team playoff instead of just the top two. More on that in a minute. First, lets look at what happened yesterday. 

ALL-PRO: 

Victors (5-1) vs Fuzion (3-3): The Victors lost their 2nd game in a row, this time to the 3-3 Fuzion team. I didn't get to see the game but it looked like a late TD was able to put Fuzion up for the win. I heard that the Victors still had a chance and actually scored a TD at the last second to have it reversed due to a sack. Either way, Fuzion is on a roll and Victors are sliding a little...they better turn it on next week. 

Franchise (2-4) vs Jacked Up (1-3): This was a pretty good game. I think it was too early for both teams and they started off slow but Jacked Up was able to hold off a late surge to seal it 28-22. Both of these teams had multiple games so I will hold my thoughts until later. 

Untouchables (6-0) vs All Express (2-4): Here is the shocker for the day. All Express knocked off the Untouchables, giving them their first loss of the season. I got to watch the end of the game when Untouchables was trying to comeback but after a desperation throw that ended in an INT it was a done deal. I didn't think I would get to say it this season but All Express looks good and could be a sleeper.

Jacked Up (1-3) vs CCC (2-4): No nothing about this game but was told that JU beat CCC.

Franchise (2-4) vs LBH2 (3-3): Franchise woke up and turned things around to win this one 41-21. LBH seems to have a little dissension among them... P.S. Qb for LBH is one of the quickest guys in the league if not THE quickest.

Mayhem (4-1) vs Jacked Up (1-3): Didn't get to see this game either but I heard that Mayhem's defense locked it down to win this one.

PRO: 

Hitmen took care of the Spartans early and Hit Squad did the same to Go 4 Broke. Both games were over by halftime. The only other game that mattered was TTB vs Shire. I had this as the game of the week but TTB put an end to that one early as they got a hold of the lead. The game didn't matter all that much but it was a solid win by a solid team. 

SEMI-PRO: 

You may have seen what Zack posted earlier today if not you can see it here. The game that was key to me was the dominating win by Balls Deep over the other #1 team Crabcakes. 

 Lastly....The MAC Poll:

ALL PRO MAC POLL:

1. (LW 1) Untouchables (6-1)

2. (LW 3) Victors (5-2)

3. (LW 2) Mayhem (6-1)

4. (LW 4) Fuzion (4-3)

5. (LW 7)  Jacked Up (3-4) 

6. (LW 5) Franchise (3-4)

7. (LW 8) All Express (3-4) 

8. (LW 4) LBH2 (3-4)

9. (LW 9) CCC (1-6)

10. (LW 10) Scores (0-7)

Okay, here is my final poll. Some teams evened up this week and although the Victors slipped, I still feel like both them and the Untouchables are the best teams in the league this season. With that being said, I like what All Express looks like even though no one knows who is there from week to week except for my fellow Madden players and Kosty. Jacked up had 3 games and went 2-1.. It's hard to say how they will play next week. Fuzion had a huge boost of confidence after this weeks win and Franchise had some positive results as well also going 2-1 with a dominating win over LBH2. 

Officially, I believe the standings will leave these rankings:

East: #1 Untouchables, #2 Mayhem, #3 Fuzion, #4 Jacked Up, #5  Franchise

West: #1 Victors, #2 LBH2, #3 All Express, #4 CCC, #5 Scores 

The big question is: Does Mike do reseeding after the first round? Victors and Untouchables get a bye since it is a 10 team playoff.  I would imagine that it's Mayhem vs Scores, LBH2 vs Franchise, Fuzion vs CCC, and All Express vs Jacked Up. I will have my thoughts later in the week. 

 

PRO MAC POLL:

1. TTB (6-1)

2. Shire (6-1)

3. Hit Squad (6-1)

4. Hitmen (4-3) - IN

5. Menace (2-4?) 

6. Bulldawgs (2-4?)

7. Go 4 Broke (1-6)

8. Spartans (0-7)

Now it is officially an 8 team playoff...

West: #1 Shire, #2 Hit Squad, #3 Bulldawgs, #4 Spartans

East: #1 TTB,  #2 Hitmen, #3 Menace, #4 G4B

It should look like this: Shire vs G4B, TTB vs Spartans, Hit Squad vs Menace, Hitmen vs Bulldawgs. 

SEMI-PRO MAC POLL:

1. Balls Deep (6-1)

2. Crabcakes (6-1)

3. Circus Show (3-3)

4. Bayside Tigers (2-6?)

5. Warriors (2-4)

6. I Hate Brion (0-6)

I honestly don't know what is going on but I do know this... It will be Balls Deep vs Crabcakes for the championship and if Balls Deep's QB doesn't try to win it with his cannon of an arm they will be the champs. 

MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - Week 7 (Final Week)

It's that time gentlemen...it's the final week of the season. The week where some teams just chill and don't care about the results, the week where you are vying for that final spot in the playoffs, or the week where Jacked Up catches up with the rest of All-Pro in games (3 this week) and gets on a roll before next week's playoffs.

So let's get right down to this week's games.

8:30am

Franchise (2-4) vs Jacked Up (1-3): Both teams are on a streak...a losing streak. So one thing is for sure, someone is going to have a win today. The question is, who? Franchise forfeited last week as they were going to have to play their 3rd game without their QB and JU took a week off too to heal their wounds. I have no idea what to expect here but a physical game. (Franchise -1.5)

9:45am

Untouchables (6-0) vs All Express (2-4): Untouchables are in good form again this season and rolling. If you listen to Kosty there is no telling what All Express squad is going to show up. If you have a blue shirt you might just have a chance to play with them. (all in good fun guys) I don't care who shows up. The only team in my opinion that can play head to head with them is a full Victors squad. (Untouchables -8)

11:00am

CCC (2-4?) vs Jacked Up (1-3): I am not sure of the actual record for CCC as Mike has both them and FH getting a loss last week. Here's one thing I do know. This is game two for JU and both of them have only won against the same team. Based on experience I say: (Jacked Up -4)

12:15pm

Shire (6-0) vs TTB (5-1): First off, this game doesn't really matter as both teams have locked up the #1 seed for their respective divisions. But you can't tell them that. This football game has the makings of being a great one. I don't even know who to pick here. But since it is supposed to be a gorgeous day you should stick around and watch if you're not doing anything. (EVEN)

Okay, so those are the games of the week in their respective time slots. Now on to stuff that may or may not start some debate...The Mac Poll:

ALL PRO MAC POLL:

1. (LW 2) Untouchables (6-0)

2. (LW 1) Victors (5-1)

3. (LW 4) Mayhem (4-1)

4. (LW 6) Fuzion (3-3)

5. (LW 3) LBH2 (3-3) 

6. (LW 5) Franchise (2-4)

7. (LW 7) Jacked Up (1-3)

8. (LW 8) All Express (2-4)

9. (LW 9) CCC (2-4?)

10. (LW 10) Scores (0-6)

Untouchables climbed for obvious reasons...Mayhem climbed with a win an locked in #2 in their division. Fuzion climbed 3 spots because they beat LBH and Franchise forfeited. Standings for divisions look like this:

East: #1 Untouchables - #2 Mayhem are locked. #3-5 is up for grabs. 

West: #1 Victors - #2 LBH - #3 All Express - #4 CCC - #5 Scores - All locked in. 

The big question is: Does Mike do reseeding after the first round? Victors and Untouchables get a bye since it is a 10 team playoff.  

PRO MAC POLL:

1. Shire (6-0) - IN

2. Hit Squad (5-1) - IN

3. TTB (5-1) - IN

4. Hitmen (3-3) - IN

5. Menace (2-4) - OUT

6. Bulldawgs (2-4) - OUT

7. Go 4 Broke (1-5) - OUT

8. Spartans (0-6) - OUT 

Per the League only the top two per division make it in. They are locked in. 

East: #1 Shire - #2 Hit Squad 

West: #1 TTB - #2 Hitmen

SEMI-PRO MAC POLL:

1. Crabcakes (6-0)

2. Balls Deep (5-1)

3. Circus Show (3-3)

4. Bayside Tigers (2-4)

5. Warriors (2-4)

6. I Hate Brion (0-6)

Zack Morris and the Tigers took down the Warriors 6-0 resulting in the only changes in this week's poll. All teams in Semi-Pro make it to the playoffs. I would imagine that Balls Deep and Crabcakes would get byes and then it would go from there. My thoughts are that it will be Balls Deep vs Crabcakes in a rematch for the championship. Outcome of their game earlier this season was 18-19 by way of the Crabcakes.

Okay...that's it from here. Good luck out there this weekend.

MDSSC Summer Flag Football - Week 6

No one wins....it is supposed to be 102 with a heat index of 115...

Published with Blogger-droid v1.4.8

Update, It was way too hot to care what the scores of the other games were. Sorry about  not posting last week. I had a busy week and unfortunately didn't have the time to do it before Friday. I will tell you that the Untouchables were able to beat the Victors pretty easily. I will say this though... I wish the game would have been rescheduled. The Victors were missing all of their offensive players due to a 9 man contact tourney in AC. At the same time, I won't slight the Untouchables they have won two titles and are looking good again this season. And because they should be on the opposite side of the bracket from the Victors it would be nice to see a rematch later on this year. Other than that there was some good games by a couple of other teams but everyone couldn't wait to get off the field. Frankly, I am surprised that every team showed up... even Mayhem and All Express were able to play their game without Skip and Vito due to some conflicting stories.. Mayhem won that game. 

Lastly, I will say this. I had the privilege to witness (ref) one of the best games of the year. It was Roger and the Hitmen versus Mac and the Shire. Unfortunately, it got a little chippy in the 2nd half... it was either the heat or the Shire close to collapsing due to the Hitmen owning them and storming back into the game from two scores down. However, the Shire was able to compose themselves enough to make one last drive with a minute to go and being down by 6. In one of the best plays I have seen in a while...Shire was able to get a huge chunk of yardage to get within 15 of the end-zone. It was here were everything would come down to defense or offense. Unfortunately, for Hitmen, they weren't able to stop the TD but had a chance with no time left to stop the conversion and force OT. This didn't happen and Shire won it by a point to narrowly escape defeat and stay undefeated. 

Again, hats off to these two teams for playing until the end and trying to keep their heads on even with the "heat" getting to them. Based on everything, it looks like they should be headed to a rematch in the first round of the playoffs. Should be exciting. 

More to come this week....

MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - Mac Poll - Week 6

ALL PRO MAC POLL:

1. Victors (6-0)

2. Untouchables (5-0)

3. LBH2 (3-2)

4. Mayhem (3-1)

5. Franchise (2-3)

6. Fuzion (2-3)

7. Jacked Up (1-3)

8. All Express (2-3)

9. CCC (1-4)

10. Scores (0-6)

Jacked up looked shaky this weekend starting their first game without their QB and the second one with only 7 guys. This was also the first weekend that I saw a full All Express squad. So with that being said, even though AE won two games and JU lost both of theirs...I'm leaving the 7/8 as is for this week. Maybe I will be a believer in All Express after Saturday... 

PRO MAC POLL:

1. Shire (5-0)

2. Hit Squad (4-1)

MDSSC Flag Football - Week 5 Wrap-Up

Here are the flag football scores from yesterday:

8:30am:

Jacked Up (1-1) vs Fuzion (1-3): Fuzion was able to take advantage of Jacked Up's lack of a QB early by picking off his first two passes, one for a TD. Before they new it JU was down 20-0. JYU's QB finally showed up but it was a little too late. It was a hell of a defensive 2nd half with only 15 points scored in total. The final score was Fuzion 28 - Jacked Up 7. (Original Projection: JU -2)

Victors (4-0) vs LBH2 (3-1): I didn't get to see this game as I was at the JU-Fuzion game but the final score was 33-19 by way of the Victors...Courtesy of 3 TD's from #9. (Original Projection: Victors -10)
Go 4 Broke (0-4) vs Bulldawgs (1-3): No Score reported...Update, Bulldawgs won, 39-25.

9:45am:

All Express (0-3) vs Scores (0-5): Kosty didn't lie.. The All Express had a new look about them and actually had 11 guys. Scores unfortunately didn't. This one was over pretty quick. Final score 45-12 - All Express.

Mayhem (1-1) vs CCC (1-2): Another one I didn't get to see but after interviewing a Mayhem player, I found out that CCC scored a late touchdown to make the game seem closer. Final score 33-32.

Franchise (1-1) vs Untouchables (4-0): Well the first of two football games for Franchise wasn't a fun one. It was a tough adjustment for them to start the weekend without Proc. They lost this one big. No final score reported for them but Untouchables covered. (Original Projection: Untouchables -6) "Untouchables 45 Franchise Hollywood 12. Game ended early. Halftime score was 33-6"

Balls Deep (2-1) vs Circus Show (3-1): [Semi-Pro] Okay Pre-K...I expect an explanation or at least a comment about your game this weekend. The final score of this one was 38-6 by way of Balls Deep. (Original Projection: Balls Deep -4)

11:00am:

Victors (4-0) vs Jacked Up (1-1): So Jacked Up had a tough go of it first thing in the morning without their QB... this time around one of their best players was unable to make it back and JU had to play with only 7 guys. They played a hell of a game considering the circumstances. Their Todd Heap and Coach Tim made some crazy catches to keep their hopes up. Unfortunately, #9, #29 and #5 had a different plan and with the help of Bill throwing them the ball they routed JU 39-20. That's 2 more TD's for #9 giving him 5 for the day. Original quote from #9: "I smell ummmmmm maybe 4 tds maybe 5 ill see how I feel when I wake up on saturday!!!!" So there you have it. He followed through. (Original Projection: Victors -4)

Shire (4-0) vs Menace (2-2): [Pro] The final score of this game was 24-14. I heard it was close and Shire didn't have Clyde. Either way Shire is rollin.

Hit Squad (3-1) vs Spartans (0-4): [Pro] Not much to report...32-0 Hit Squad. Spartans, I want you guys to stay in the league... so keep your heads up. But it may be time to regroup.

Bayside Tigers (1-3) vs Warriors (1-2) [Semi-Pro] Score of this game was 31-22. Warriors won. Maybe Zack can tell us what happened....and maybe Zack can get us some pics of Kelly in the locker room?

12:15pm:

TTB (3-1) vs Hitmen (3-1): [Pro] Somebody came into this game with a chip on his shoulder (Shawn)...and TTB played like it. This game was over before halftime. It's hard to say what happened here. I want to give TTB their props (Shawn did tell me that they have the BEST PLAYER in the LEAGUE in #7) but Hitmen's defense was atrocious. TTB's QB had all day to throw the ball to WIDE open players (#7 for at least 2 td's). Final Score: 59-21 (TTB) Here's what I will say... TTB has a great stingy defense and a fast offense. TTB still has to play Shire but they have the right things in motion to contend for the championship. With that being said. Whoever wins the Pro division better take their ass to All-Pro because most of you talk way too much trash without playing some of the best teams. (Original Projection: Hitmen -2)

Franchise (1-1) vs Mayhem (1-1): I got to catch the end of this game and it got close in a hurry. Mayhem was up 20 at one point in this game but Franchise was able to find a grove without their QB and tied it with about 5 minutes to go. Unfortunately for them, they couldn't stop Mayhem. Mayhem scored late but gave Franchise a little under 2 with the ball....and they were able to score with a minute to go. It all came down to the conversion and they weren't able to convert. Mayhem won 27-26. (Original Adj. Projection: Mayhem -10)

Crabcakes (4-0) vs I Hate Brion (0-4): [Semi-Pro] No score reported

All Express (0-3) vs CCC (1-2): All Express was able to get two in a row today to climb to 2-3 for the season knocking off CCC 25-20. 

Well there you go guys. Some Monday morning reading for you. A new Mac Poll will be out on Monday afternoon.

MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - Week 5

Okay Travis, let's get this knocked out so you can get yourself ready for a double header tomorrow. If you want to see a recap of last week you can click here. Let's just jump right into the games for this weekend. There are some good ones. 

8:30am 

Jacked Up (1-1) vs Fuzion (1-3): Jacked Up is back to their 2 games a day - 2 weeks off routine. They get to start with a an unusual 1-win team in Fuzion. Fuzion has had a tough time winning and I have yet to see JU play. I guess I will say... (Jacked Up -2) Considering they beat Scores 28-12 and Fuzion survived Scores 32-30.

LBH2 (3-1) vs Victors (4-0): This is an interesting one. LBH2 was known for getting after the Victors. But these aren't the same Victors. The Victors have won some great games but LBH2 has only lost to the Untouchables. Even with LBH2's 3-1 record I am saying...P.S. Travis thinks he might score 4 td's on Saturday, that's #9 for LBH2... (Victors -10)

9:45am

Franchise (2-1) vs Untouchables (4-0): This should be a great game! Proc has a cannon for an arm and Franchise has some players that can get after it on both sides of the ball. Untouchables, on the other hand, have run through our league twice to be crowned champs and you can't underestimate them. This is easily the game of the day. (Franchise -1) (Adj. spread as we get closer...Untouchables -6)

Circus Show (3-1) vs Balls Deep (2-1): Here's your Semi-pro love... Balls deep has a strong-armed QB and as long as he can put the ball on point I think Balls Deep might humble the Show. In fairness to the Show, I have not seen them play. So...(Balls Deep -4)

11:00am

Jacked Up (1-1) vs Victors (4-0): This will be the second game for both of these teams on a hot day. I have no idea what to say here so I will say.... (Victors -4) based on the fact that they have won 3 tough games and JU has been off for two weeks. 

12:15pm

TTB (3-1) vs Hitmen (3-1): And here is your Pro love... This is the best game in this division this weekend. Both team's only loss comes by way of the Hit Squad. So they're playing for 3rd place, considering no one has beat Shire. I like this match up though and think that the Hitmen can keep their streak going...but it will be tough. (Hitmen -2)

Franchise (2-1) vs Mayhem (1-1): This will also be Franchise's second game on a hot day and Mayhem should have the leverage in regards to being cool. Mayhem lost a tough one last week to Untouchables but hadn't played in two weeks prior to that. The key in this game will be who gets stops on Defense. I am going to give Mayhem some love here... (Mayhem -2.5) (Adj. Spread as we get closer...Mayhem -10)

To add a little gas to the fire... Here's my AP poll going into this weekend for All Pro and Pro:

ALL PRO MAC POLL:

1. Victors (4-0)

2. Untouchables (4-0)

3. LBH2 (3-1)

4. Franchise (2-1)

5. Mayhem (1-1)

6. Jacked Up (1-1)

7. CCC (1-2)

8. Fuzion (1-3)

9. All Express (0-3)

10. Scores (0-5)

PRO MAC POLL:

1. Shire (4-0)

2. Hit Squad (3-1)

4. TTB (3-1)

7. Go 4 Broke (0-4)

MDSSC Summer Flag Football - Week 4 Wrap-Up

Alright, so just a quick post to wrap-up the rain soaked weekend that was flag football in Hunt Valley. I guess Mike beat me to it as the website is updated. First off, let me say that there must have been something in the rain because some unnamed guys got their panties in a bunch this last weekend. One guy was even bit on the tit! What the hell men? This is Flag Football. There is no reason to get all macho out there and try to fight someone. We are all supposed to be grown men. Act that way on the field. If someone cheap shots you, hopefully the refs will see it...if not, don't try to fight them. If you're not injured just get up and walk away. Alright, now that that's out of the way lets get to some football. 

Hitmen covered the spread (-8) in a 32-19 victory over Menace. LBH2, however, was not able to cover (-10). They did win though...they beat a 7 man Madden/Express team 26-20. This is an interesting score and Kosty commented on the last post stating to look out for them. So we will see what they have in store for us. The Victors vs Franchise game lived up to the hype. The rain was pouring and the competition was great. The final two minutes were pretty exciting. I'll paint the picture here: 

The Victors were up 32-24 with a little less than 2 minutes to go. They had the ball on their own 10. All they had to do was get a first down and the game's pretty much over. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Franchise clamped down and was able to force the Victors into a 4th and long. Victors did the smart thing and punted the ball...however, it was a line drive straight at the Franchise returner, he got it past mid-field and the play ended with about 55 seconds left. Franchise couldn't move the ball and got into a 4th and long goal. Proc threw it to the goal line and pass interference was called. This was not a bad call from the goal line ref...however, there was claim that the ball was tipped by the rusher. The line of scrimmage ref had to make the call. He said that it didn't matter (in my opinion WRONG... if the ball is tipped there is no PI. PERIOD)... either way 1st and goal from the 1. Franchise scores with about 15 seconds left. 32-30... blitz is open and the Victors make the stop. Great game by both teams! 

Other scores: 

ALL-PRO

Untouchables beat Mayhem 21-7 covering their 3pt spread.

Fuzion was able to outlast a creative Scores team 32-30. (Mike, I may have forgot to add the last second TD on the scorecard). By the way, Scores, awesome use of the pistol formation!

Victors beat CCC earlier in the day 26-14. CCC had just too many turnovers but were right there with the Victors. 

PRO

Shire remained undefeated after surviving a late surge by the guys with all heart G4B. (18-12)

Hit Squad handled the Bulldawgs 32-13

TTB crushed the Spartans 46-14...

SEMI-PRO

Pre-K and the Circus Show limited just one TD to the Warriors winning 24-6

Balls Deep had 2 too many turnovers and let one slip away to the Crabcakes losing 18-19

and Bayside Tigers ended the day by beating I Hate Brion 32-6. 

MDSSC Summer Flag Football - Week 4

I know I said Friday but my week as caught up to me... so unfortunately here are just some quick hits. 

Games of the Week: 

8:30AM: Menace vs Hitmen - I dunno why I am doing this... Hitmen -8

9:45AM: LBH2 vs MaddenExpress - M.E. has to win one of these...right? LBH2 -10

11:00AM: Victors vs Franchise - It's like the Colts vs Ravens in the playoffs for you Baltimore folk. If TJ is hurt, which I heard he was, then this could be pretty close. Victors -2

12:15PM: Untouchables vs Mayhem - Mayhem is missing out on their Allstar (DL)... I say Untouchables -3

Sorry about the lack of posts gentlemen, but I did enjoy the banter back and forth on the comment section. Can you guys man up (exception to AD #44 and Roger) and put your names down? 

I will be out there all day tomorrow.Good luck to everyone. Oh, and FYI, the website is updated...

Summer Flag Football - MDSSC Hunt Valley

Sorry for the delay this week guys. I didn't make it out to the games last week and only heard about the Victors win over Madden Express and the Hollywood win over Fuzion. With that being said, I saw the standings and here are my thoughts... 

Fuzion is off to an 0-2 start. Not typical of this team...The Victors and Franchise Hollywood are both off to 2-0 starts and will still be undefeated after this week as they are both down in Virginia for some contact flag football tourneys. Jacked up has still yet to play a football game this season but draw the Untouchables for their opener. That should be a good game. Here are the standings:

Franchise Hollywood: 2-0           Victors: 2-0

Mayhem: 1-0                                      CCC: 1-1

Untouchables: 1-0                           LBH2: 1-1

Jacked Up: 0-0                                  Madden Express: 0-2

Fuzion: 0-2                                         Scores: 0-2

GAMES OF THE WEEK:

8:30am Fuzion vs Untouchables: Unless Fuzion finds their defense...I say Untouchables -6

11:00am Jacked Up vs Untouchables: 2nd game on a hot day for the Untouchables, I say Jacked Up -3

In the Pro division there are two strong teams, in my opinion...Hit Squad and Shire/Movement. The others are a tad behind them. That's not a knock on Menace but the other two squads are putting points on the board. 

GAMES OF THE WEEK:

8:30am Go 4 Broke vs Hitmen: G4B needs a win and need some offense, they have only put up 21 points in two games. However, they are a team that can get in "Roger the Great's" head though... G4B to get of the schneid -1.5

9:45am Hit Squad vs Shire: Battle of the Undefeated....they are identical Points given up 32/36 and Points scored 63/62.. EVEN

11:00am TTB vs Menace: This is where Menace is humbled... TTB -4

Special shout out to the Hit Squad... They will be debuting their new AGame Team Flag Football Jerseys this week. They look fantastic. Thanks gentlemen and good luck. No more INT's Brady Quinn! 

That's it from me this week. Stay cool Hunt Valley.
