Some of the best players in the nation
are walking the walk after talking the talk. After two months of hype
and trash talk, the games have begun. What makes this even special,
is that every one here has good game. But some of the players have
already separated themselves from the others. The BFL, after proclaiming
their greatness have established themselves as the league to top.
Winky White destroyed TAFKAC in the round robin 41-6. Fruitman of
the BFL has also been victorious with wins of Terry Whigham and Kevin
Fox. Fox is the first to be eliminated from advancing to the tournament
round after loosing to Fruitman and Terry Whigham. The Creator and
Kwan Drake have represented the PFL well thus far with wins over BFL
member D. Rob and non league participant 3rd & Long. The Swammi,
tournament organizer, lost in his round game 17-0 to Firm $F$ member
Ade. So the action is hot and the camaraderie is the best thing about
the weekend. Its Madden A Holics heaven with so many guys with a high
passion for the game getting together having fun! If you ain't here...you
are missing it! -- The Swammi
Red Rza of the Firm $F$ and D. Rob
of the BFL just played the first overtime game of the tournament.
It ended in a 38-35 thriller as D. Rob took the win in overtime.
We will give you an updated report

The relatively obscure BFL of Atlanta
has made a name for themselves this tournament. Lead by Winky White
and Vince the Fruitman, this league is deep with talented players.
Winky literally ripped through the round robin destroying all of his
opponents by a score of 118-30. It wasn't until the first round of
the single elimination rounds that Winky faced his first test, vs.
PFL member, Joe Hilton, as White held on to win 21-17. D. Rob, Lonnie
Hill, Coop, Ron Wilborn, Eddie Parker and the Fruitman were all impressive
in theirng round wins. PFL power house, The Creator didn't disappoint
either, with wins over D. Rob of the BFL and Bulldog of New Orleans.
However, Firm $F$ representative Red Rza, dropped The Creator for
his only loss 20-18. Unfortunately for the The Firm, Red Rza, nor
All Star made the tournament rounds. Fellow Firm member Action Jackson
did make into the tournament with a win over The Swammi, and a forfeit
win credited over The Gamer, who did not show.
PFL Sleepers Represent
Although top PFL players Fox, and
The Swammi were eliminated early, Teddy Brown, Joe Hilton, Brian
Cook, and The Creator did manage to keep the league name respectable.
However it is clear that the BFL is the dominant league in the tournament
with each of their 7 members advancing to the tournament round.
Terry "The Terminator" Whigham
Advances To Quarter Finals
The Terminator, terminated D. Robs
existence in the Madden Games tournament with a 42-38. "Hattiesburg
is representin'," proclaimed Whigham after defeating D. Rob. Robertson
was the first of the BFL ballers to fall from the ranks.
