8 Helpings of SNFL Story Lines to Feast On

  1. NFC Dog Fight: After The DAWGS shocking comeback win over My City Team, the NFC playoff race got a lot more interesting. Three teams sit at 6-4 with Bhavik holding a 7-4 record. Week 12 is sure to be some interesting theater with Bhavik playing the 8-3 DAWGS, Jaime playing The Ox, and Kevin playing Daniel. Assuming The DAWGS win and Jaime defeats The Ox, that'll probably end up putting Jaime ahead of Bhavik. This weeks Game of the Week, Kevin v. Daniel will give the victor the inside track to the ever allusive third playoff spot in the NFC. However, week 13 is where all hell will break loose. With The DAWGS and The Ox playing one another, 4 possible playoff opponents will have to battle it out mono y mono. AWWWWW YEAH!!!!
  2. Dominate Fred: It pains me to say this, but Fred is the cream of the crop in the SFC this year. With Ray Rice, Vincent Jackson, and Victor Cruz Fred has become an unstoppable force that preys on the weakly fantasy wenches of the SFC (except Ian). Unfortunately (and I guess rightly), the only teams that look like they could stop him are The DAWGS and EL GRANDE THE TACO KINGS. Prepare to raise up a conference championship banner Fred, you got this one locked up.
  3. Turning Their Seasons Around: At one point sitting at 1-4, THE TACO KINGS are tied for third in the NFC. With the dynamic duo of Arian Foster and DeMarco Murray they've gone 5-1 and are probably the only NFC team that can defeat The DAWGS (because it's obvious Kevin never will WOOOOOSH). However, Daniel's not the only one in the NFC to turn things around. Jaime, after reeling from six straight losses, has pulled off two consecutive wins against Garrick and Bhavik. He also sits in third place, with an up and coming matchup against.... The Ox. The luckiest son of a bitch in the SNFL may just eek into the playoffs thanks to a light schedule to end the season.
  4. Driving Their Seasons into the Ground: Could it happen again? Just like last year, Quinton is projected to make the playoffs two games away from the end of the regular season. Just like last year, Quinton is on a losing streak (4 losses) that threatens to end his playoff hopes. Is Quinton destine for heartbreak once again? Also feeling the season slip through his fingers, Bhavik may miss out on a epic "worst to first" comeback. With Adrian Peterson possibly out, Bhavik has no real starting running back to count on. After starting 4-2, and looking like the top dog of the NFC, Bhavik has begun to fall. The 66.50 points against Jaime explains it all.
  5. End of an Era: Coming into this season, Jon was 19-9 all time. Now what looks like a possible losing season, Jon is 5-6, the most losses he's ever had in a season. At one point he was on a four game losing streak. Now matter what happens in week 13, it is apparent that a new SNFL Champion will be crowned.
  6. Pursuit of Imperfection: In the SNFL's two previous regular seasons, no team had ever has more than seven straight losses. In week seven, Garrick set a record for most consecutive losses. Last week, Garrick broke The DAWGS record for most losses in a regular season (10). He's already gurenteed himself the least amount of wins in a season (previous record 4). Now Garrick sits two games away from completing the worst season in SNFL history. It remains to be seen if Fred will spare Garrick that humiliation, but no matter what we've witnessed history... luckily for Ryan.
  7. The Trade that Defined a Season: What would this season look like with The DAWGS had never traded with Garrick. The trade that may have shaped the SNFL season unlike any other has led to one team dominating their conference and another with no wins. The trade of Ben Roethlisberger, Fred Jackson, and Greg Jennings for Micheal Vick and Beanie Wells is one that will be remembered in the annals of SNFL history.
  8. The Greatest Comeback in SNFL History: If you watched the Chiefs-Patriots game Monday night you got an unexpected treat. Down by a little over 30 points, The DAWGS came into the final game of week 11 with just the Patriots defense and their kick needing to make up those 30 points. What ensued was perhaps the most amazing comeback in SNFL history. The Patriots unleashed on the Chiefs offense with three sacks and three intercepts. Stephan Gostkowski helped in the kicking game with 10 points. However, it wasn't enough as the Patriots held the Chiefs to 3 points. The DAWGS needed a miracle... and they got one in Julian Edelman. With a punt return for the ages, Edelman guaranteed The DAWGS their fourth consecutive victory against Kevin, bringing the series to 4-0.
