| To recap last Saturday:
Both games in Pool B came down to the final play:
- Green, down by 8 drove the length of the field, but came up just short.
- Red tied the game with 3 plays left. Black responded by launching two long plays, then Kinger iced it with a long field goal to win and advance.
- Royal Blue finished first in Pool B due to the head-to-head result vs black.
- Green finished 3rd at 1-2 due to the head-to-head vs red.
In Pool A, there were wider margins.
- White finished 3-0, Carolina Blue 2-1, Purple 1-2, and Coal Grey 0-3.
Remaining Schedule:
Saturday September 11th:
9am* tie games will be decided with a fast OT (See Refs re Fast NCAA Style OT Rules)
- Red vs Purple
- Green vs Coal Grey
10:45am - Games will be paused at 11am for a minute of silence in honour of Remembrance Day.
*tie games will be decided with a NCAA Style OT (See refs re specific OT Rules)

| Shoutout to Red for a hell of a game. We had some chances in the first half to run away with it, and then you guys played exceptional in the 2nd half. Sucks that somebody has to lose a game like that, but also those are the kinds of games that make this league so fun.
Looking forward to the challenge of going up against Team White this weekend, they’re a tough puzzle to solve. But I’m also looking forward to one of the coolest things I’ve ever experienced, and that’s the moment of silence on the field with all you beauties. It’s wild to think that men as young as some of the youngest guys on our teams fought and died for this country. Canada might not be perfect, but I don’t think there’s a better country out there. So standing out there on that grass, in our cleats, competing hard but with a deep respect for our teammates and opposition, it’s a sobering moment of how lucky a generation we are. I’m hopeful that our kids experience the same relatively easy life that we’ve been blessed with.
I appreciate every one of you knuckleheads, even (especially?) when it gets heated.
See you on the fields.

| two great semis with four QBs that all have some hardware. the battle of the blues is interesting as they are both missing their best player. take playoff Jelani to take advantage of no Joe and get to the finals again. the black and white game matches the two oldest tenured QBs who have both been in this position many times. this game is passing of the guard of the face of the league for the last decade in to, tj, neeraj, king, edwards to the next decade in the Whitter’s, 6 foot 7 jacob, Terrell .. take the young guys but Noah’s team wont give up without a fight.
should be a good day of football

| I don’t see Light Blue even making it close with out Joe. I don’t see anyone standing up to the plate.

| Rumour going around is Carolina blue is going to start Mike at qb and move Matt to receiver.

| Can Matt play WR anymore?? I heard he has less knee ligaments than Tyjae spears
|
Posted By: Answer Posted On: Nov 10th, 2023 Views: 693
| If Matt wasn’t QB, he would be a first round pick, if not a top 3.

| TJ has opinions but he posts his name here. That should be clear.

| whats wrong with joe

Posted By: Away Posted On: Nov 10th, 2023 Views: 628
| Joe and Tyler are together on a trip away. Rumor of Ford missing. Might be a close game with top guys missing. Did I see Payton Clarkin back playing last week. Might turn out to be a close game. Light blue in a close one.
White ve Black
White without even a blink
Red vs purple. Who cares
Green ve coal who cares

| Mike Raf throwing while Mat Raf plays receiver, in the semi-finals of a year with majority exec turnover, is akin to Brain declaring to Pinky that “today is the day we take over the world.”

| Carolina blue to sneak past playoff Jelani.
As for the Black and White game? Pure athleticism vs. Veteran pride. Gotta go with the veterans on Remembrance Day. Young bucks should show some respect and let us score a couple long TDs, because most of us don’t remember doing that in a while, either.

| White and black semifinal was a great one. Great plays, drama, intensity, shout out to all the players on both teams.. don’t remember an OT game in last several years but 48-48 is amazing. Offenses were cooking to score 48 points on those defenses. Hope the blue white final is somewhere as good.
