This is it--this is the day the NFL awards the two new franchises. My personal favorite is Charlotte, but the way things seem to be going, nothing is definite until the vote is taken later today. The following NFL teams don't play in Week 9: CIN, CLEV, HOUS, PITT Now for the game info: There were several candidates for blowout of the week, but I chose one that truly expresses the word "blowout." In League I, the Bookies set the RAFFLE record with 78 points by demolishing the Big Dogs 78-23. With no real choices, the heart-breaker of the week goes to the League III matchup between the Seals and Warriors. The warriors won the game in overtime, so to speak, 23-23 (it was the tiebreaker that decided it) The League II 69ers barely escaped with their winning streak intact. They are now 8-0, but they have to face the other division leader in the league--the 6-2 Bombers. This week's high score: Bookies (I) 78 points low score: Tomcats (III) 7 points 50+ points: 5 Standings ~~~~~~~~~~~ 6 Louisville Thoroughbreds 6 2 0 .750 W 2 283 220 1 Troan's Trouncers 4 4 0 .500 L 2 225 242 4 Big Dogs 4 4 0 .500 L 1 213 252 3 Obliterators 4 4 0 .500 L 3 190 219 5 Wisconsin Panthers 2 6 0 .250 L 1 217 263 2 Phoenix SandDawgs 2 6 0 .250 L 4 185 239 Bravo Division W L T Per.
