View the Week 8 Game Center

In a matchup everyone is sure to be talking about, the game of the week looks to be the one between the two teams with the best record and longest winning streaks in the league, not to mention owning the two best starts to a season in PFFL history (this year and in 2004). In other action, two non-division games could play big roles later when the wild cards are handed out as these games feature three 4-3 teams and a 3-4 club. There’s also a battle for the division lead in the East and a game between a 2-5 team and the 1-6 team it hopes to remain ahead of in the playoff hunt.

Week 8 Matchups

  • DDT leads the career matchup over Kramerica, 4-3, but was swept in two games last season. The winner of this one will remain in at least a share of the lead in the East.
  • Amazingly, SIAP and Hedfullalicker have only played seven times. Last year’s week 10 meeting was their first matchup since 2001. SIAP won that game and leads the all-time series, 4-3.
  • TKD and WBM are squaring off for the 16th time ever in a rivalry that includes games in every season since WBM joined the league (1998). The series was evenly matched at 6 wins each through 12 games, but TKD has won the last three to take a 9-6 series lead. This is their first ever week 8 meeting.
  • Double D and Camel Toe are facing off for the second time. DD won last year, in week 7, 102.09 – 83.53. DD is hoping to end a 2 game losing streak while ‘Toe is hoping to snap a 3 game skid.
  • 7-0 Post Mortem and 6-1 SaaBB meet in a battle of division leaders. Both teams own long win streaks (SaaBB is 6-0 since week 1) and lead their respective divisions by 3 games. PM leads the career series 8-4-1 and has won the last three. These two last met in 2006, in week 8 actually, when Mortem completed a season sweep of the Bowling Balls. PM is 2-0 against SaaBB in week 8. If you’re wondering about that tie, it happened in week 9 of the 2002 season. The winner of this one has the inside track on the number one seed in the playoffs.
  • The Hip puts their 3-game winning streak on the line this week against a tough Turd Ferguson team. Both teams are 4-3 and fighting for wild card position. Turd leads this matchup 7-4, but The Hip won the last meeting by 38, in week 12 last season.
  • The Jedi Masters and CSPJ are meeting for only the fifth time ever and the first time since 2005. They were in the same division once before, in 2004, when they also played in week 8. The Jedis won that game and the follow-up match later that season. Meanwhile, CSPJ has won both of the non-division meetings.

Record Watch

  • Post Mortem is seeking to tie the PFFL record for best start to a season, a record held by this week’s opponent.
  • SaaBB, meanwhile, is looking to move into a tie for 8th on the list of longest regular season win streaks.
  • Kramerica only needs one more high point week to tie for 10th on the list of most single season high point weeks.

Preview Babe

Say hello to Olivia Munn. Some of these pics are from a new photo spread in some magazine called Complex, and Olivia looks to be in the Halloween spirit. I know very little of who this woman is, but apparently she’s on the G4 network, where she does things like eat a hot dog off a string (see video). If you are interested in more of her bio, here’s her Wikipedia page.
