The 2010 WMLMFplayoffs and championship

[RavennaAl]

#1 seed Canadian Sasquatch vs. #4 Munich Third Reich

Sasquatch: They are the defending champs and know how to win when it matters most. They feature 2 of the top 10 rushers in the league in Grog and Muckman, Their QB, Stinkwater, is the leagues highest rated passer, with a 111.3 rating and threw a league low 4 interceptions for the year. They have a pair of unheralded receivers in Theodore and Badgas. Tipper, the tight end, is a great blocker who helps open the holes for the running game. Defensively, they rely on a strong line and deceptively fast linebackers and secondary. Chappy and Thinker each recorded 3 interceptions on the year, Tank and Bubbles had 2 sacks apiece. On special teams, Muckman averaged 27.8 yards per return, Grog 21.5

Third Reich: Munich is led by their QB, Wilhelm ‘Colonel’ Klink, who led the league in passing with 1518 yards. They also feature the 2010 WMLMF offensive player of the year Sven Wagner, who ran for 472 yards and 7 TD’s and caught 10 passes for 207 yards and 4 TD’s. Willie Wolf was second in the league in receptions, with 505 yards and a pair of TD’s. The Reich defense is anchored by Albert Burkhalter and Joseph Herrmann in the middle. Manfred Mann tied for second in the league in interceptions with 4. Richard Meier averaged 27.5 yards per kick return and Wagner 32.0.

The Canadians lead the series 3-0. Neither team seemed to have much enthusiasm in last weeks game, perhaps because they had already clinched playoff spots. I have a feeling that Munich was holding back, not showing everything that they had. I also have a feeling it won’t matter. The Sasquatch play their best this time of year and have the Reich’s number. Sasquatch 35 Third Reich 13


#2 seed Midwest Mennonites vs. #3 Battlin’ Bozos of Battle Creek


Mennonites: The ’Nites have struggled this year offensively. Luthar Lamp and Speedy Ezekiel finished 10th and 13th in the league rushing, but Ezekiel was 4th in reception yards with 380 yards. They have the leagues top tight end, ’Stone Cold’ Steve Austin who finished with 336 yards receiving and a pair of TD’s. Bud Weisser had 3 interceptions from his strong safety position, while Abraham John ended up 5th in tackles with 31. Speedy and Lamp combined to average 32 yards per kick return.

Battlin’ Bozos: The clowns were the top offensive team in the league, running for 1820 yards and passing for 1132. They also had 2 runners in the top ten with 2 Cents and More Or Less, who led the league with an incredible 16.2 yards per carry average. Pi was tied for the lead in TD throws with 13, and was 3rd in passer ratings with 101.6. FM and Dice Six each had 3 sacks, One Eleven and Left U-Turn tied at 11th in the league with 29 ½ tackles. More Or Less had their lone TD on a kick return.

The Bozos lead the series 2-1 The Mennonites played one of their best games of the season last week. Will they be able to continue? They have shown moments of brilliance, as well as moments of collapse. The Bozos have been uncharacteristically consistent this year. Clowns will be running rampant. Bozos 31 Mennonites 21
