Tuesday, October 25th - Recap

Record #'s showed up for last night's Free-Agents Football game. So many in fact, that we introduced a 3 man line with a 3 count rush. Without a doubt, this brought the intensity of the game to a whole new level.

Highlights from last nights game include:

• "Bandana Mikey" (not to be confused with Mike Higbee) was Craig's Go-To reciever and had a great game, recording over 100 receiving yards running slants up the middle.
• Sam "Megatron" Elmore (self-named) had a handful of stellar catches and recorded 3TD's in double coverage. The last had to go to a booth review after questions of weather his feet actually were in bounds.
• History was made last night as the first Female athlete took part in F.A.Fb. Kimberly Heiniger surprised everyone when she stormed the field and had a line-toeing touchdown reception in the deep corner of the endzone in her first game as a Free-Agent.
• Ndamukong Drew had a breakout performance in the Linebacker Position recording 5 solo tackles, 6 QB hurries, & 4 Sacks.
• Unfortunately no pictures from last nights match-up were taken, due to the fact that the league photographer/commissioner/web designer was preoccupied recording 2 sacks, 3 deflections, and 97 all-purpose yards.

What's next for Free-Agent's Football? Corporate Sponsors have reached out to League Commissioner Kyle Krol over the past few days. He stated early Wednesday that he would "entertain some ideas," and would "sell-out faster than you can say Fuzzy Vodka."

Saturday October 22nd (Recap)

Saturday's Free-Agent Football League brought together 10 of the most dedicated football players in Indianapolis. F.A.F.B. was proud to welcome new-comer Nathan Burger to the league. He had 8 receptions and 2 TD (the last being a stellar 1-handed grab in the North Endzone).

 

Midway through the third quarter, Team 1 added a new player that went by the name "Ronnie." Ronnie was sure to inform us of his past athletic experiences stating numerous times, "I play sports for a living." When asked what sport he was known for he stated "I used to play baseball, but got injured a few years ago." This lead FAFB analysts to believe that he is currently unemployed....However his fresh legs had an immediate impact on the game with a pick-6 and a 85 yard kick-off return.

Team 1 walked away with the victory after Briggs declared that he had to go work, and was already 15 minutes late.

• The next Free Agents Football game is scheduled for Tuesday, October 25th at 5:30 P.M. Seasonably High temps are expected in this matchup.

 

 Team 2 kicking off to Team 1 during the second half of Saturday's heated match-up.

Mike Higbee boots the ball past the endzone for a Team 1 touchback.

"Athletes" from both teams come together for a post-game cigarette.
