Week 1 Matchups
- CSPJ vs Camel Toe > The season kicks off with a battle between the only two zero-star rated franchises in the league. CSPJ leads this matchup 3-1, including wins in the last three meetings. CSPJ and Camel Toe have only played each other when they are in the same division, which they are again after taking a break last season.
- Tappa Kegga Day vs Double D > These two teams square off in the season opener for the second straight season. TKD won that game last year en route to a season sweep of DD in divisional play and an eventual PFFL championship. However, Double D still leads the career matchup 7-3.
- The Hip vs The Jedi Masters > Amazingly, this is the first season that finds The Hip and The Jedis in the same division, although they have played each other in all but two (2001 and 2005) of their seasons in the league. The Hip leads the overall series 5-4, but the Jedis have won the last three, including a 99.08 – 85.61 win in week 4 last year.
- Winning Beer Money vs Post Mortem > This is only the 9th meeting between these two clubs (and only the third since 2004), another pair who have never resided in the same division (and don’t this year). WBM leads the series 5-3, but has lost the last two (in 2005 and 2007) by a combined score of 76 points.
- Turd Ferguson vs SIAP > A rematch of last year’s semi-final matchup that saw SIAP win by 25 to earn a PFFL Super Bowl berth, this game kicks off the seventh divisional season series for these two clubs. SIAP holds an overall matchup lead 10-6, including wins in the last three meetings.
- Hedfullalicker vs DDT > Hed and DDT were division mates for three straight seasons earlier this decade (2002-2004), but have been enjoying only single-game non-division matchups the last four years. Back in the same division, this game kicks off the season series. The all-time matchup is tied at 5 wins each, and the all-time division game matchup is tied at 3 wins each. Hedfullalicker beat DDT in week 11 last year by the score of 101.11 – 91.29, but hasn’t won consecutive games over DDT since 2002-2003.
- Kramerica vs SaaBB > Kramerica kicked off their 2008 season with a low-scoring win over SaaBB, but SaaBB gained revenge in the first round of the playoffs, eliminating Kramerica with an 8-point win. SaaBB leads the career matchup 6-3.

Preview Babe
This is Joey Davenport from the LA Temptations of the Lingerie Football League. (I wonder if there are fantasy leagues for that too?) Found her from this “50 Lingerie Football Players on Twitter” post. Her Twitter account is “protected” and I really don’t care what she’s tweeting about, but she’s on mySpace if you want to become her internet friend. Anyway, she’s hot.
