Thursday's report


It's official. The season is over.

Well, at least the race for the overall FBLG championship. No team in the 20-year history of the FBLG has ever come back from a deficit of 300 points or more to win the league title.

On Wednesday, the Fresh Fish extended their overall lead over second-place Misfits to 324 points.

If the Fish don't win the FBLG overall title, it will be because of an epic collapse. The Fish lead the third-place Rookies by 418 points.

The only question now seems to be if the Fish will break the FBLG record for the most lopsided overall championship.

But, hey, there's still the head-to-head title to play for.

Sunday's report


Now, every team but one has fallen, at one point this season, more than 300 points behind the front-running Fresh Fish. Since no team in FBLG history has erased a 300-point deficit, it appears up to the Misfits to keep the heat on the Fresh. Oh, and it's June 18. The Misfits enter Week 12 down by 171 points.
