* The official theme hits, and the voiceover proclaims "This is the WFL on WBC!"* "Good evening, sports fans, and welcome to another preview of the WFL on WBC. Let's get to the matchups!" "In our first battle, one team will walk away with its first win, as the Stockholm Icestorm travel to the State of Brotherly Love to take on the Allentown Ambassadors! Stockholm has been looking for answers, as both losses were blowouts, while Allentown has been close, losing by 14 or less points." "The next matchup features the Manitoba Mavericks traveling to the capital of the WFL, Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to take on the 0-2 Outlaws. The Outlaws are coming off a devastating O/T loss, and this could help the Outlaws turn their season around. But don't expect the Mavericks to roll over and allow them to be defeated that easily." "Grand Rapids tries to continue its domination going, as they travel to the rainy northwest to take on the Portland Settlers. The Settlers are coming off a dominating victory, and would like nothing more than to hand the Fighting Pike their first loss of the year." "The Eagles of Athens have the longest trip this week, as they travel halfway across the globe to face the Bandits of Bejing." "After the schelaking from the Fighting Pike, Team Delirious travels to the region of British Columbia, taking on the Vancouver Vampires. After what could possibly be the Game of the Year, the Vampires look to continue their roll, but it will come at a challenge against Team Delirious." "In a battle of Midwest powerhouses, the Lincoln Lightning travel to Indianapolis to face the Indiana Injuns. The Lightning look to gain back some composure, completely falling apart in the second half of their loss last week." "The Red Dragons of Swansea travel all the way from Wales to the rough streets of Brooklyn, as they take on the New York Stars. The Red Dragons look to put the close loss in the rearview mirror, while the Stars look to gain their first win of the year." "In our final matchup of Week 3, the Calgary Comets travel a short distance down to the city of Seattle to take on the Mountaineers. Will the Mountaineers go 3-0, or will the Comets hand them their first loss of the year?" "That's all for now. Tune in later on, as we wrap up the highlights from each matchup. This is Howard Cosell, signing off!"

The opening theme begins, as the voiceover states, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Hello again, sports fans, and welcome to the Week 3 Wrap-up of the WFL. This is Howard Cosell, being joined by Chris Berman once again. Good to have you here, Chris.Good to be here, Howard. Let's get to the action!* The highlight music starts to play.* First off, Stockholm and Allentown. Both teams came into the game 0-2, and the Ambassadors came out of the gate fired up! Allentown QB Esther went 17-23 for 281 yards and 4 TDs as the Ambassadors pounded the Icestorm, 28-7.Next, we're off to the WFL Capital, Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The Outlaws host the Manitoba Mavericks, and they were not to be denied here. Sioux Falls WR Lord had 9 receptions for 186 yards and a TD as the Outlaws came away with their first win, 21-11.And if you thought last week's game of the week was something, you haven't seen anything until you see Grand Rapids against Portland. The Settlers came out on all 8 cylinders, going right after the Fighting Pike. But Grand Rapids started to slowly make a comeback. Then, as the final minutes ticked away, the Fighting Pike charged down the field and looked to score the go ahead points. But IT'S AN INTERCEPTION! And the Settlers knock off the Fighting Pike, 18-15.That's what really killed the Pike in this game, Chris. 4 turnovers, 3 of them picks. They did not look like the dominating team of the prior two weeks.
From Portland to Beijing, as the Bandits hosted the Eagles of Athens. This was a surprise as well, as the Bandits held their own, shutting out the Eagles and giving them their first loss, 11-0.Let's head back to north of the border, as the Vancouver Vampires take on the team known as....um.....Team Delirious. Seriously, I can't say that name. Anyways, Team Delirious was up to their old tricks, as they held the Vampires to only 66 yards rushing to their 157 yards and took down Vancouver, 14-4.Next up, a battle in the Midwest, as the Lincoln Lightning took on the Indiana Injuns. And this one was ugly. Lincoln looked almost as big as fools as Kayne West did at the VMAs last night. 2 turnovers, 5 sacks, and 325 yards passing helped the Injuns rout the Lightning, 28-4.From a rout to another classic as Swansea traveled to Brooklyn to face the New York Stars. It was another close matchup, as NY intercepted the ball as time expired, leading the two teams to the second overtime game in WFL history. But the Red Dragons went down the field and kicked a field goal to win it, 15-11.And for the last game of the week, the Calgary Comets traveled to Seattle to face the undefeated Mountaineers. In another shocker, the Comets had 5 sacks on the Mountaineers, as they upset Seattle, 15-7.Looks like the '72 Dolphins are letting out a sigh of relief.What the hell does that have to do with this? This is the WFL, not the NFL, you incompetent nitwit. Why, I outta...*The signal is cut early after Cosell starts to rip into Berman.*

* The opening theme begins, as the voiceover proclaims, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Good evening, sports fans, and welcome to the Week 4 Wrap-Up! This is Howard Cosell, and joining me this week is Hall of Fame Quarterback, Troy Aikman.It's great to be here, Howard. Let's get to the action!* The highlights theme begins.* Right you are, Troy. In the first game, The Vancouver Vampires headed to the state of Michigan to take on the Grand Rapids Fighting Pike. The Pike looked to rebound from the upset loss against the Portland Settlers. But they were out classed by the Vampires, as Vancouver would go on to rout Grand Rapids, 25-7.Vancouver LB Tanimoto was the man of the game, having 3 sacks, helping that defense just confuse the high powered Grand Rapids offense.
From a blowout to our game of the week, The Beijing Bandits travel to Winnipeg to face the Manitoba Mavericks in a shoot-out. Manitoba out performed Beijing yardwise, 498 total yards to 254. But the key here for Beijing was turnovers. They scored 14 points off quick turnovers. Near the end, they were up 28-14. But Manitoba fought their way back, tying the game up at 28 a piece and taking it to overtime! The Mavericks won the toss, and took it down the field to score an overtime victory, 35-28!From one close game to another, as Portland headed to Pennsylvania to face the Allentown Ambassadors. Allentown looked to upset the hot-running Settlers. Near the end, Allentown scored to tie the game up, 18-18. But Portland's QB Humberson led the drive that took the Settlers all the way down the field and score the winning touchdown, as the Settlers defeat the Ambassadors, 25-18.Humberson was the leader of the game, going 14-20 for 314 yards, 2 TD and 1 INT.
From a close call to a blowout again, Calgary traveled across the pond to face the Swansea Red Dragons. The Red Dragons made it close for a while, but then, it was all Comets, as they took the win here, 29-7.From Wales to Nebraska, we head out to the midwest to see the Seattle Mountaineers face the Lincoln Lightning. After Nebraska's loss to Virginia Tech earlier today, this game was ugly from the start, as Seattle pounded Lincoln into the ground. Lincoln's score at the end of the game saved a shutout, but it wasn't even close, as the Mountaineers prevailed, 35-8.Ugly from the word go. Next, we travel to the Edge of Sanity, as the New York Stars take on the team known to many as Team Delirious. It was a close one, but New York couldn't get the job done again, as Team Delirious squeaks out a win, 18-10.Next, the undefeated Indiana Injuns traveled to the magical land of Greece to take on the Athens Eagles. The Eagles came out fired up, getting 5 of the 9 total sacks in the game. Indiana tried to keep up, but it was too much for them, as Athens handed the Injuns their first loss, 21-7.The last game of the week saw the Sioux Falls Outlaws travel to Sweden to face the Stockholm Icestorm. Once again, it was another close battle, with Sioux Falls having an edge in yards gained, 294 to 229. But once again, they came up short when they needed to capitalize, and that helped the Icestorm gain their first victory, 18-10.It was another great week in the WFL, but we're out of time. For Troy Aikman, this is Howard Cosell saying good night, and see you next week!

* The Official Theme hits, and the voiceover proclaims, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Hello, sports fans, and welcome to the Week 5 wrap-up of the Wrestlecrap Football League. This is Howard Cosell, and joining me this week is probably one of the best quarterbacks to play the game, Joe Montana.Thanks, Howard, it's a great honor to be here. Let's get to the action.*The highlight reel begins as the highlights theme begins.* First off, the Icestorm of Stockholm traveled all the way to Portland, Oregon to face the Settlers. The trip must've been rough for the Icestorm, because they came out flat. Portland ran and passed all over Stockholm. Their defense also flattened the Icestorm with 3 turnovers and 3 sacks. In the end, it was all Portland, as the Settlers trounced the Icestorm, 35-0.It was a rough game for Stockholm all around. The team they beat last week, the Sioux Falls Outlaws, traveled to the Forbidden City, as they faced off against the Beijing Bandits. Unlike last week, though, Sioux Falls came out on all cylinders, as they pounded the Bandits, 21-7. Sioux Falls RB Heidtman was the Player of the Week, rushing 18 times for 141 yards, 6 receptions for 76 yards, and 3 total touchdowns.Indeed he was, Joe. The next matchup had Allentown traveling to Vancouver to face the Vampires. The Ambassadors came out fired up, taking an early lead and never looking back. Vancouver made it close in the end, but the Ambassadors took this one, 32-21.From a shootout in B.C. to a sack attack in Indianapolis. The Injuns hosted the Manitoba Mavericks, and the Injuns defense was a nightmare for Manitoba, recording 6 sacks and stopping them when they needed to, getting a 15-8 win.Next, we head to New York, as the New York Stars take on the Grand Rapids Fighting Pike. The Fighting Pike started the year out strong, but now, they seem to be in disarray, as they couldn't really get anything going here. The Stars pull out the upset, and gain their first win of the season, 11-6. Looks like we won't have a winless season in the WFL this year.After handing Indiana their first loss last week, the Athens Eagles traveled to the city of the Space Needle, taking on the Seattle Mountaineers. Seattle looked real good, but turnovers and faltering in the red zone, and Athens capitalized on it, picking up another win, 15-7.In the next clash, the team known to some as Team Delirious traveled to Calgary, Alberta Canada to face the Calgary Comets. This was a tough battle back and forth, but it was the Comets who prevailed in this matchup, taking down Team Delrious, 22-19.In the final match of the week, the Lincoln Lightning tried to rebound from the embarrassing rout last week and traveled to the land of Wales to face the Swansea Red Dragons. It was another tough, close battle between these two, but the Dragons had the advantage, with 255 yards running the ball. But the Lightning weren't going down without a fight, trying to make a comeback late. But in the end, they fell just short, and Swansea picked up the win here, 28-20.Truly, it was another great week of action in the Wrestlecrap Football League, and it excites me to find out what will come up later in the season. But for now, we're out of time. For Joe Montana, this is Howard Cosell saying good night!

*Earlier today, the Lincoln Lightning held a news conference to discuss the season so far. Right from the word go, it wasn't pretty. Here's the reaction from the coach to start.* *sigh* We f***in' suck. Seriously. We lose 35-8 at home, then we go all the way to Wales, and can only make it a respectable 28-20 loss? What the hell is happening? I can't get these guys to learn jack s***. We win the first game against rival Sioux Falls, but after that, we haven't done a damn thing. It's terrible. I can't stand it anymore. That's all. No questions. *He gets up and walks off, with reporters calling for answers.*

* The official theme hits, and the voiceover proclaims once more, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Hello again, sports fans, and welcome to another wrap-up of the Wrestlecrap Football League. This is Howard Cosell, and joining me this week, is Former Packer Quarterback and Hall of Famer, Bart Starr.It's great to be here, Howard, and this week, we're gonna kick it old school.*Just as he says that, this song hits, and the highlight video begins.* First off, the Fighting Pike of Grand Rapids hosts the neighbors of the north the Calgary Comets. And this game was another showing of how the Pike have fallen. The Pike allowed 4 sacks and was outrushed 156 to 64, as the Comets go 5-1 and take this one, 18-7.It wasn't pretty at all. But the next game was quite enjoyable, as the Seattle Mountaineers traveled to Winnipeg to face the Manitoba Mavericks. The Mavericks kept this game close nearly the entire time, but Seattle was too much in the second half for them, and picked up the victory here, 28-14.Moving on to what is possibly the shocker of Week 6. New York traveled to Allentown, Pennsylvania as the Stars took on the Ambassadors. And New York came out and stomped the Ambassadors down. No turnovers, no sacks on either side, it was just a good ol' fashion beating. New York out played Allentown, gaining 451 total yards to Allentown's 187, and the Stars take this one, 35-8.From one shocker to another, as the Indiana Injuns traveled to Sioux Falls to face the Outlaws. And the Outlaws came out fired up like they did against Beijing. The yardage was about even, 232 to 348, but the key here was turnovers. Indiana turned the ball over 3 times and the Outlaws took advantage, getting the win here, 25-6.The beatings continued as Vancouver traveled south to face the Portland Settlers. And the Vampires just walked right into a massacre, as Portland forced 3 turnovers and outpassed Vancouver, 236 to 101, as the Settlers shut out the Vamps, 32-0. After Lincoln's head coach's harsh words, it was thought that the Lightning would come out and prove themselves at the Edge of Sanity. However, this was not the case, as they kicked only 2 field goals as their points, and couldn't get in the endzone, as Team Delirious gets the win here, 25-8.After all these beatings, it's a nice change to see a close battle, as Swansea traveled to Athens in a battle of the European superpowers. Swansea was dominant early on, but Athens kept it close. But, it was not to be, as Swansea comes out with the win here, 18-15.In the final battle of week 6, the Beijing Bandits traveled to Snowy Sweden to take on the Stockholm Icestorm. And the Icestorm surprised them, pounding them mercilessly, sacking the Quarterback 4 times, in a 32-15 rout.That'll do it for this week's action! For Bart Starr, this is Howard Cosell saying good night!

*WFL Tidbits from around the League.*
Officials are stating that the city of Omaha, Nebraska is looking to field an expansion team next year in the Wrestlecrap Football League. When asked, league officials were stated as saying, "We look to possibly gain around 4 more teams next year to get up to a total of possibly 20 teams, and Omaha is one of the few sites that we've been looking at."
Rumors have been going around that former NFL Great and Hall of Famer Barry Sanders is interested in coming out of retirement to play for the Grand Rapids Fighting Pike. Sanders was heard saying that "if they are willing to start winning again, I'd be willing to come and play for them." Some are skeptical, as Sanders is 41, and hasn't played football in 10 years. Some are saying these skeptics are full of crap.
Word is going around that the head coach of the Lincoln Lightning is in hot water. After his meltdown at the press conference a few weeks back, it was said that the team was looking to get back to winning. This was not the case, as they lost another blowout to Team Delirious, 25-8. The owner has stated that if the team is not at least .500 by the end of the year, the coach will be gone.
If Portland didn't look spectacular before, they should be soon. Not only are they in talks with disgruntled Oregon RB Blount, word has it that the team is also looking to sign Hall of Fame bound WR Jerry Rice. Once again, skeptics are looking more into this, as Rice hasn't played in 5 years. But Rice has been shown to stay in shape, and this could be a deal going down soon.

* The official theme plays, as the voice-over proclaims, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Hello, sports fans, and welcome to the halfway week of the Wrestlecrap Football League! This is Howard Cosell, joined this week by one of the greats to ever play the position of Quarterback, Fran Tarkenton!It's great to be here, Howard. Let's get to the action for Week 7!* The new highlights theme plays, as the highlight video starts.* First off, Stockholm at Vancouver. This one was a knock-down, drag-out battle from start to finish. Both teams wanted a win here to finish the first half of the season and go into the second half with momentum. Stockholm started out quick, hopping out to a quick lead. But Vancouver started to make a comeback late in the game, but the clock ran out on them. In the end, Stockholm picked up a key win here, 21-15.The next game had Beijing travel to Indianapolis to play the Indiana Injuns. The Injuns started out good, kicking a pair of field goals. But after that, it was all Beijing, as the Bandits out-passed the Injuns, 260 to 126, and routed the Injuns, 32-8. Bandits QB Starbird had an excellent game, going 9-17, for 260 yards, 3 TD, no turnovers.The next game saw the Portland Settlers travel to the mean streets of Brooklyn to take on the New York Stars. This game was a nail-biter the whole way through, as the Stars looked to upset the 5-1 Settlers. They took it all the way down and tied it up at 14 with only seconds left in the game, and we are going into overtime. The Settlers won the toss, and took it down the field to kick a field goal, winning this one in OT, 18-14.The next game saw the Sioux Falls Outlaws travel to the rainy northwest to take on the Seattle Mountaineers. The Mountaineers held Sioux Falls to no scoring the entire first half, but the second half, it came unglued, as Sioux Falls forced two turnovers, and pulled out another win, 18-7.We head further north to the great white north of Canada, as the Calgary Comets look to continue their dominance, as they host the Allentown Ambassadors. Allentown out performed the Comets yardwise, 284 to 190, but the thing that killed them was the turnover game. Calgary forced 3 turnovers to Allentown's 0, and the Comets improved to 6-1 with a 21-11 win.The next matchup had the Manitoba Mavericks travel across the great wide Atlantic to face the Swansea Red Dragons. Manitoba was held to only 18 yards rushing, but had 244 yards passing to Swansea's 177 yards rushing and 158 yards passing. Manitoba also turned the ball over twice, but sacked the Swansea QB 5 times in a 21-7 victory over the Red Dragons.Now, we travel to the heartland known as Nebraska, as the Grand Rapids took on the struggling Lincoln Lightning. The Fighting Pike may be looking to impress Barry Sanders incase he were to sign with the Pike, and they did that, pounding the tar out of the Lightning here, 35-7.The final matchup here in Week 7 saw the Athens Eagles head to the Edge of Sanity, as they faced Team Delirious. This was another tough battle, as the yards were about the same for each team, 234 for Athens and 231 for Team Delrious. But once again, the turnover battle was the key here, as Team Delirious forced 2 turnovers, and picked this one up, 14-7 over the Eagles.And that will do it for the first half of the first WFL Season! This is Howard Cosell, signing off, and we will see you next week!

* A different opening theme plays, as the voice-over proclaims, "This is the WFL Mid-Season Special." Good evening, and welcome to the Wrestlecrap Football League Mid-Season Special. I'm Bob Costas, and I welcome you as we come to you from the capital of the WFL, Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Now, let's take a look at the standings at mid-season.R.D. ConferenceMadison DivisionTeam | W | L | PF | PA | Swansea | 4 | 3 | 115 | 139 | Sioux Falls | 4 | 3 | 103 | 72 | Allentown | 2 | 5 | 122 | 158 | Vancouver | 2 | 5 | 90 | 156 |
Deus Ex DivisionTeam | W | L | PF | PA | Calgary | 6 | 1 | 141 | 73 | Grand Rapids | 3 | 4 | 134 | 100 | Stockholm | 3 | 4 | 92 | 167 | New York | 2 | 5 | 85 | 90 |
Blade ConferenceDinobot DivisionTeam | W | L | PF | PA | Portland | 6 | 1 | 168 | 76 | Team Delirious | 5 | 2 | 118 | 94 | Seattle | 4 | 3 | 130 | 70 | Lincoln | 1 | 6 | 69 | 180 |
Golden Spike DivisionTeam | W | L | PF | PA | Athens | 4 | 3 | 98 | 72 | Indiana | 4 | 3 | 89 | 102 | Beijing | 3 | 4 | 130 | 135 | Manitoba | 3 | 4 | 124 | 134 |
Let's hand it over to Speed for his awards and stat leaders.Most Yards by a QB: Humberson (Portland) - 1527 yards Most TD by a QB: Humberson (Portland) - 14 TD Most Rushing Yards: Moseby (Swansea) - 997 yards Most Rushing TD: Moseby (Swansea) & Rodi (Portland) - 8 TD Most Receiving Yards: Brockett (Vancouver) - 707 yards Most TD Receptions: Millier (Calgary) - 7 TD Most Sacks: Dahling (New York) - 8 sacks Most Tackles: Hagarty (Beijing) - 47 tackles Most Interceptions: Laut (Portland) - 5 Interceptions My Ups, and My Downs: UP: Portland Settlers. Lose the first game, then win 6 straight? That's definitely progress. Down: Lincoln Lightning. Exact Opposite of Portland, Win first game, lose 6 straight. EPIC FAIL. Kinda wondering if they should've picked up Favre when they had the chance. Up: Team Delirious. I gotta be honest, I didn't think they'd do so hot, considering the name. However, they've proved me wrong. Up: Sioux Falls Outlaws. Yeah, they're only 4-3, but that's better than what I thought they'd be after lost the first 2 games. Down: Grand Rapids Fighting Pike. They started out real well, then they went downhill. Hopefully, they can turn it around in the second half of the season. Up: Calgary Comets. Didn't see them going 6-1 for the first half. Very impressive. Predictions for the rest of the year: Swansea - 8-6, Division Championship Sioux Falls - 7-7, Possible Wild Card Allentown - 4-10 Vancouver - 3-11 Calgary - 12-2, Division Championship Grand Rapids - 9-5, Wild Card (BITCHES!) Stockholm - 6-8 New York - 5-9 Portland - 13-1, Division Championship, Homefield Advantage Team Delirious - 10-4, Wild Card Seattle - 7-7, Possible Wild Card Lincoln - 1-13, 1st pick in the WFL Draft Athens - 8-6, Division Championship Indiana - 7-7 Beijing - 6-8 Manitoba - 6-8 *Note: These predictions are based on my own opinions. If you wish to make predictions for the second half, feel free. I would like to see what some of the other members of the league think the rest of the season will go down as.*

* The official theme plays, and the voiceover proclaims, "This is the WFL on WBC." Good evening, sports fans, and welcome to the beginning of the second half of the WFL Season. Howard Cosell here, and joining me this week, is two time Super Bowl Champion John Elway.It's great to be here, Howard. Let's get the second half kicked off!* The highlights theme plays, as the video starts to roll.* First off, Athens at Grand Rapids. Last week, it was a blowout win for the Fighting Pike. This week, not so much, as the Eagles fought tooth and claw in this whole game. They were out performed yardwise, but they made it up with the defense, getting 4 sacks to 1. But in the end, Grand Rapids got two turnovers, and that was the key, as the Pike clip the Eagles, 11-7.Next up, Team Delirious travels to Winnipeg to face off against the Manitoba Mavericks. And this one was ugly from the word go. Team Delirious pounded the snot out of Manitoba, shutting out the Mavericks, 28-0.And next up, the Lincoln Lightning traveled to Allentown to face the Ambassadors. And the Lightning shocked the world, upsetting Allentown, 21-8. This game was much closer than the score indicated, as Lincoln only scored a touchdown late in the fourth. With this, Lincoln gains their second win of the year, and breaks the 6-game losing streak.Next up, the Sioux Falls Outlaws hosted the Swansea Red Dragons in a battle between division rivals. For the first half, Swansea and Sioux Falls battled neck and neck, with the Red Dragons leading 8-7 after one half. But then, it was all Sioux Falls, as the Outlaws came back and dominated the second half, on the way to a win, 25-8.From a blowout to another close match-up, as Calgary and Portland faced off. This was a battle of the two 6-1 teams, and the winner would undoubtedly gain the advantage going into the upcoming weeks. It was a battle to the end, as Calgary drove down the field, ala Elway, and scored the winning touchdown, taking the win here, 18-11.From one tight battle to another, as Seattle visited Beijing. This was a defensive showdown, as both teams had 6 sacks, having a combined 12 total sacks! Seattle was able to out perform Beijing on offense, and took the win here, 14-8.Next, New York traveled to Vancouver, as the Stars faced off against the Vampires. And this one was all Vampires, as they forced 3 turnovers and had four sacks, taking the win here, 32-4.In the final match-up of week 8, the Indiana Injuns went to Sweden to face the Stockholm Icestorm. And Indiana was in control for most of the game. But the Icestorm fought back, making it close in the end, but not close enough, as the Injuns pick up the win here, 18-16.And that'll do it for Week 8. For John Elway and everyone here in the WFL Studios, this is Howard Cosell saying good night!

* A different theme opens the show, and the voice-over proclaims once again, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Hello again, sports fans, and welcome to Week 9 of the Wrestlecrap Football League. This is Howard Cosell, and joining me this week is probably one of the greatest defensive linemen in NFL History, William "The Refrigerator" Perry.It's great to be here, Howard. And it couldn't have come at a better week, as it seemed like each game was a "Defense wins it" game.Indeed, Fridge. Let's get to the action!* The highlights theme hits, as the highlights video begins.* First off, Manitoba faced off against Grand Rapids in the cold Midwest region. It was a true defensive battle, as the Mavericks posted 5 sacks against the Fighting Pike. But the Pike also showed some great defense, forcing 3 turnovers. The Mavericks fought back late in the game, but it wasn't enough, as the Pike took the win here, 18-11.From a defensive battle to a defensive beatdown, we head to Brooklyn, as the Stockholm Icestorm take on the New York Stars. The Icestorm came out and pounded the Stars with a defensive blizzard, forcing 2 turnovers and posting 6 sacks, as they rout the Stars, 22-0.The next match-up saw Indiana travel to Seattle to face the Mountaineers. The Injuns didn't really show up here, gaining only 150 total yards offensively, while turning the ball over 2 times. Seattle didn't do that much better, but it was enough, as they shut-out the Injuns, 11-0.Next, we head north of the border, as Calgary hosted Vancouver in a battle of Canadian powers. Calgary must've had a letdown from after defeating Portland, because they did not come out strong. Calgary scored late to make it respectable, but it was all Vancouver, as the Vampires upset the Comets, 28-15.In the next battle, Beijing traveled all the way to the island of Wales, as they took on the Swansea Red Dragons. This was a back and forth battle from the get go, as both teams traded the lead. In the closing minutes of the game, Swansea took the lead and held off the Bandits, 25-21.After their close loss last week, the Portland Settlers traveled to the heart of the Midwest, taking on the Lincoln Lightning. The Lightning were looking to continue their roll after surprising Allentown last week. But like the Huskers earlier, the Lightning couldn't get anything going and it looked like business as usual, as the Settlers rout the Lightning, 25-0.Next, Sioux Falls traveled to the Edge of Sanity, as the Outlaws took on Team Delirious. The wackiness of the hosts didn't seem to stifle the Outlaws, as they outperformed Team Delirious, even if they did give up 3 sacks. This one was a close one to the end, but Sioux Falls pulled it out, continuing to impress us all, 15-12.In the final game of the week, the Allentown Ambassadors traveled to the Greek peninsula to take on the Athens Eagles. This was also a surprise, as Allentown came out and dominated Athens from start to finish. In the end, the Ambassadors picked up a much-needed win here, 19-7.
That will do it for Week 9. For The Fridge, this is Howard Cosell saying Good Night!

* The opening theme rolls again, and the voice-over proclaims, "This is the WFL on WBC!"* Good evening, sports fans, and welcome to Week 10 of the Wrestlecrap Football League. I am Howard Cosell, and joining me this week, none other than the Coach Himself, Mike Ditka.Let's get to the action, Howard.* The highlights theme begins, as the highlights video begins.* First off, the Manitoba Mavericks traveled to Allentown to face the Ambassadors. Both teams had their passing games going, but in the end, it was a defensive battle, as both teams forced two turnovers. But Allentown sacked the Mavericks QB three times, and it was enough to take down Manitoba, 18-14.Next, we travel to the heart of the WFL, Sioux Falls, South Dakota, as the Grand Rapids Fighting Pike take on the Sioux Falls Outlaws. Once again, it was a defensive battle, as Grand Rapids forced two turnovers and a season high 7 sacks, taking out the Outlaws, 19-11.From Sioux Falls to Portland, we head to the great northwest as the Athens Eagles face off against the Portland Settlers. Once again, another great defensive battle, as Athens LB Spulick had 4 of Athens' 5 sacks. But it was Portland who forced 3 turnovers, including one that killed the winning drive for Athens, and clipped the Eagles, 11-7.Three great defensive battles, and we head to the land of China, and this one wasn't even close. Team Delirious came to Beijing and completely blew away the Bandits. Team Delirious RB Gesamondo had 28 carries for 190 yards and 2 TDs as Team Delirious took this one, 25-4. Next, we head to Vancouver, as the Vampires hosted the Lincoln Lightning. And Lightning struck here, as Lincoln dominated Vancouver the entire game, taking down the Vamps, 28-7.From there, we head to Indianapolis, as the Indiana Injuns hosted the Swansea Red Dragons. This was another battle to the finish, as Indiana stopped Swansea short of tying the game up late in the game, and the Injuns pull this one out, 25-18.We head up to the mean streets of Brooklyn, as the New York Stars host the Calgary Comets. And this one was ugly as well, as the Stars were held to only 78 total yards of offense, while the Comets had 387 yards of total offense, and took this one easily, 18-0.The final game of Week 10 saw the Seattle Mountaineers travel to Stockholm to face the Stockholm Icestorm. And the Mountaineers punished the Icestorm all game, forcing 3 turnovers and 2 sacks, taking the win here, 25-7.With only 4 weeks to go in the regular season, it's anybody's chance to make the playoffs. But for now, we're out of time! For Mike Ditka, this is Howard Cosell saying, Good Night!

I feel happy that Calgary is the class of the R.D. conference. Should make the road to the Crapper Bowl much easier
