PIFF Highlights and All-Stars 08 Week 4

Check off another week, that will make 4 of the 15 regular season weeks done. This week we saw our first tie of the season (Plankers vs. Rebels), the first negative points (that hasn't happened since the 2005 season), and the number of undefeated teams is down to two.

Game of the week from last week: Last weeks game to watch was Purple Pirates of Sparrow's Island (3-0) versus the Dark Menace from Pirataly (3-0). The game's result hung in the balance throughout the Monday Night football game, and all seemed to be going the Maties way when the Steelers recovered a fumble for a touchdown. But the Vampirates wouldn't go down so easily and Ben Roethlisberger lead the way back for a win for Pirataly. Both teams played a great game and both coaches posted 100% efficiency scores for choosing who to play. These teams look like early favorites to get into the championship playoffs.

Team to raise the sails: The Big Bad Red Burns from Harbor Coast posted a week high score of 28 points, in big part due to the young QB Jason Campbell. RB stud A. Peterson also had a good game and the red and white coasted past the 'Nites.

Davey Jones Team: Week 12 of the 2005 season was the last time a team scored in the negatives. In the game the Futontopia Eldars (in their last season at Futontopia, the next year they moved to the Ninja Isle) lost to the Tea Republic Steepers -4 to 43. This week the Netthuania Fighting Mennonites racked up a -2 score after the Arizona defence let 50 points go by. The 'Nites are only 2-2 but if their DEF can't play any better this might be a long season for the artichoke farmers.

Brawl of the week: As if the great match up between the Maties and Vampirates wasn't good enough last week, this week the Vampirates will take center stage again when they face the Snotvia Snotknockers. Two undefeated teams enter the match, only one will survive, unless they tie... they they both will survive on a technicality. Grab your popcorn and your Stat Tracker this one is gonna be good.
