welcome to 0.4.6. so far i dont enjoy it much!

the Spires give the Lions a 21 point smacking to mark their largest margin of defeat in franchise history. the last two games for the Lions were their best in franchise history and the worst in franchise history. everything went the Spires way in this one. on the first drive of the game Prague rammed the ball down the Lions throat with a 75 yard touchdown drive spanning 6:40 of the clock. QB Arturo Reyes (12th pick, +7 in camp) has a sterling debut with 3 TDs. RB Solomon Dodge adds 162 yards and 2 TDs on 22 touches (7.4 per). the Europe division got the memo. Prague goes to Lisbon next week where they intend to show everyone this was no fluke. the Lions return home to lick their wounds........im sure there will still be some smiles during the ring presentation.

the Bayhawks dominate the clock and rush the ball an impressive 55 times in their victory over the Tornadoes. San Fran has two RBs rush for 100 yards while Guayaquil has as many interceptions thrown as they did first downs. its hard to say the Bayhawks arent the favorites in the New World after this beatdown of the week

TE Richard Triplett picks a great time for his first TD reception in almost 4 years. the Strongbows had some miscommunication on defense and new man under center QB Charles Brunswick finds Triplett for a walk off OT TD in Dublin as the Stampede start 2074 on the good foot

the Gauchos are outshined by the Stars on paper but not in the win column as they escape with a victory in overtime. Mumbai K Jarrod Ogorman misses two FGs in the last 5 minutes of the contest which leaves the door open for Buenos Aires who score the last 6 points. this game was the closest it can get to a win for both teams

the Deities coast after a 23 zip halftime lead to make easy work the 86ers. several Johannesburg players were not able to fly to Cairo due to covid restrictions and were forced to take the bus, but the bus broke down in the Sahara and they had to be rescued by helicopter but not in time for the game. QB John Marquez & QB JR Bandley are both young & talented QBs in a contract year. it will be fun to watch if this is the year that the Deities take the next step and who they choose to go forward with at QB. as of now, Bandley is on the trade block...a little fyi for anyone looking

the Prizefighters defend home turf in a challenging home opener versus the Butchers. Chicago could have easily won this game despite the 8125 mile journey to Manila......their possession chart was about as bad as it can get. a good early season home win for the Prizefighters which my be a tiebreaker down the road

WR Benjamin Penticost picks up where he left off last season. He goes off for 2 TDs & 127 YDs but suffers a minor injury as the Golden Eagles take down the Dire Wolves in a match between teams featuring Brazzavilles discarded QBs

the Bushmasters are 1-0 in the post Watts era. QB Slick Jennings becomes the second starting QB in franchise history as San Jose manages to outlast the Power in the game of the week. the fourth quarter and overtime of this game was football at its finest

i dont anticipate having enough time to write about all of the games like i have had last season.....probably pick out top six games or so. if anyone would like to contribute please feel free. awest827 :)
