Week 5 Scores

BFL Week 5, and more surprise!
 
(I hope everybody watched the Monday night game, ABC had the 
'mike' on Keyshawn Johnson, who was shooting his mouth off 
about Marvin Harrison catching screen passes in the first 
half, and how he was so much better. Well, Keyshawn, the 
Football Gods don't like crap like that, and I think by 
the end of the night, we saw who was better. You might want 
to try keeping your mouth shut, and doing it on the field. 
Also, at the start of the game, John Madden is mouthing off 
about how this Bucs defense is one of the 3 greatest ever in 
the NFL, blah, blah, blah, well, you don't lose a game like 
that, especially at home, and be called a great defense. 
They are good, but they are not great.)
 
Let's get to it:
 
Meeks                188
Dawgs                139
 
Where else can you start? In the game between division leaders, 
and unbeaten teams, The Meeks come out on top with huge points 
on Monday night. It is only week 5, and I have run out of 
superlatives to describe the points the Manning to Harrison 
connection is putting up. The Meeks go into Monday night 
needing lots of points, and the Indy Colts wake up late, 
Peyton finishing with 356 passing yards, and 2 TDs of 37 and 
28, with Mr. "I'm not George" Harrison on the receiving end of 
those 2 TDs, and also catching 176 yards total. That got 
Manning 52 BFL points, Harrison 41, and the Bucs DS even got 
22. Portis had another big day, running in a 65 yard TD (and 
damn near a 72 yard pass reception, too) for 40 points, and 
that was enough. The Dawgs got 41 from David "I'm back" Boston, 
with 181 receiving and TDs of 46 and 13 yards, Henry and 
Williams ran for 23 and 10, respectively, McNabb threw in 20 
and Elam kicked like a bucking Bronco, for another 17. The 
Dawgs had Peerless Price on the bench and he scored 25, but it 
wouldn't have mattered. Wow, has anybody else noticed these are 
two good teams? The Meeks are atop the Landry Division, at 4-0-1 
now, and The Dawgs were the last unbeaten\untied team, but still 
atop the Lombardi Division, at 4-1.
 
Pipsqueaks           108
Butchers             101
 
In another game decided on Monday night, Michael Pittman gets 
the job done for the Pipsqueaks, running and catching for the 
needed BFL points, scoring 15. Favre had a good day in Green 
Bay for 30, McAllister ran for 18, John Hall kicks in another 
25, and the Chiefs DS comes up with 15, Dante Hall returns 
another punt 93 yards for a TD. The Butchers got 25 from 
Harrington, Troy Brown pulled in 22, and Moe "Points" Williams 
got 20, everybody on the roster scored, but needed one more TD 
from somebody. The Pipsqueaks are now 2-3, and The Butchers 
fall to 1-4.
 
Outlanders           113
Looney                89
 
In the third game this week decided on Monday night, Brad 
Johnson has as big a night as Peyton, throwing for 52 BFL 
points, on 318 yards, with 3 TDs of 78, 3, and 15 yards. 
Alexander ran in another 19, and Olindo Mare finally found 
the scoreboard, kicking in 18 more, the rest of the team 
getting the job done. The Looney got huge production again 
from the undefeated Minnesota Vikings DS, scoring 33 points 
on 2 safety, 3 turnovers, and 2 sacks, but Jeff Blake could 
only pitch in 19, Cundiff kicked for 13, but the rest of the 
squad, while everybody scored, were in single digits. The 
Outlanders are leading the Halas Division at 4-1 (and have 
more wins than all of last season, though I still don't know 
how they didn't win more last year), and the Looney are now 
1-3-1.
(add on: Ed, Jimmy Smith is on the Looney's IR, he caught 
for 137 yards in week 5)
 
Ferrets              122
Mules                 92
 
The Ferrets get another win on the healthly legs of Fred 
Taylor, 87 yards rushing, 77 receiving, including a 60 yard 
TD reception, and a 1 yard TD run, for 41 BFL points. Trent 
Green also throws in 24, and the newly acquired Dolphins DS 
scores 22, on 4 turnovers, and a sack. The Mules got a big 
game 43 points from Quincy "MD' Carter, running the NFL 
leading offensive Cowboys, Kasay kicked in 11, but Charlie 
Rogers hurt his shoulder early, scoring 6, and 3 running 
backs could only come up with a combined 17 points. The 
Ferrets are now 2-3, and The Mules are also at 2-3.
 
Manglers             133
Mustangs              78
 
The Manglers and Jeff Garcia got back on track, with 39 
points, scoring 3 TDs, 2 pass, and 1 running. The Cowboys 
DS had a big game against Arizona, also had 2 safetys (as 
did Minnesota DS, that is odd), 2 ints, and 3 sacks. Holmes 
could only get 9, but Rod Smith finally shows up, with 22, 
throwing a 72 yard pass! to Portis (that was almost a TD), 
and catching for 131 in Kansas City. The Mustangs got 118 
yards rushing and 2 TDs from Ahman "Workhorse" Green, Akers 
kicked in 17, the Redskins DS got 16, but Tommy Maddox had a 
tough day for only 13, and too many other zeroes on the roster. 
The Manglers move to 3-2, and The Mustangs are now 2-3.
 
Highlanders          105
Gizzards              39
 
The Highlanders get one in the win column, with Tom Brady 
leading the way, 219 yards and a 58 yard TD pass, scoring 32. 
Stephen Davis, runs, runs, runs 30 times, for 159 yards and a 
TD, 25 BFL points (in my book, if he can keep from getting 
hurt, early NFL MVP, right up there with Peyton, Carolina and 
Indy still undefeated), Barber and Owens both get 16, and 
Vanderjagt boots in 14 more. The Gizzards didn't show up for 
this one, Randy Moss had another good game with 26 BFL points, 
and Grammatica kicked in 10, but 4 of his players didn't even 
make it onto the field this week due to injury and bye week 
(Culpepper, E. James, Dillion, and the Jets DS). The Highlanders 
and The Gizzards both now have a 2-3 record.
 
=====================================================
 
That is it. BFL MVP week 5 is the Peyton to Harrison connection 
again, and I'm sure there is a lot of people in Tampa/St. 
Petersburg, FLA (and Ron) that feel the same after Monday 
night.
