Semifinal Results
- (8) SIAP 129.54 def (5) Turd Ferguson 104.83 > SIAP continued its impressive postseason, with 7 of 8 players in double digits this week. It all started with Jones-Drew and Wayne on Thursday night, continued with Jacobs’ 3 TDs on Sunday night and concluded with a two turnover/one block Monday night performance from the Bears’ D. For Turd Ferguson, they played like the game was over after Thursday when Garrard and Dallas Clark staked them to an early lead. With Bowe, Andre Johnson and AP all coming up small, however, Turd’s chance at a championship appearance vanished. SIAP now has a 3-game win streak against Turd, and leads the overall series, 10-6.
- (3) Tappa Kegga Day 91.53 def (2) Sharp as a Bowling Ball 53.78 > For the second straight week, TKD stayed alive largely due to a fortunate matchup, although at least the winning score this week was a little more respectable. TKD had Joseph Addai in the lineup on Thursday, and his gooseegg certainly wasn’t a good start, but solid, double digit performances from 6 of his 7 other players on Sunday made up for the rough start. Meanwhile, SaaBB was in trouble from the moment that Anquan Boldin was announced as “out” and got worse when Kurt Warner was completely ineffective in the snow and subsequently benched. Those two players had single-handedly gotten SaaBB to this point, so missing even a “good” performance from each of them spelled disaster. TKD’s win was a mark of revenge for a loss 3 weeks ago during the regular season. SaaBB still holds the overall series advantage at 9-6, but TKD has a 2-0 record over SaaBB in the playoffs.
Playoff Record Watch
- SIAP’s current record of 12 postseason wins is safe at least until the 2009 playoffs. TKD is second on the list with 10.
- SaaBB ties Post Mortem’s mark of 9 postseason losses (the result of similar playoff success — 9 of 12 years in the postseason, 0 championships)
- Both SIAP and TKD will be making their fourth championship game appearance, a league record given that no other team has made it more than twice.
- Turd Ferguson became only the 7th team in PFFL history to accumulate 1000 postseason points
- SIAP’s 129.54 point performance is the 9th highest score in postseason history
- SaaBB’s 53.78 point output is the 8th lowest score in the PFFL playoffs
- After participating in a postseason record-setting performance for combined high points last week, Turd Ferguson is on the list again in 4th place this week, as the SIAP-Turd battle totaled 234.37 points
- Turd’s 104.83 points is the 5th highest score in a losing postseason effort
- Turd’s 123.17 points-per-game average in the 2008 postseason is the 4th highest average score in PFFL playoff history
