Farley Printing Company 42 - Young Gunz 7

The Young Gunz came rolling into Marbrook Financial Field boasting a 7-1 record and having just upset the Gamblers in the quarter-finals. Farley Printing came rolling in trying to figure out who they were playing and wondering whether their star QB was going to show. MPJIII had been stirring the pot all week about not getting enough touches, and Geo had been seen out late Friday night in the midst of an uncharacteristic binge. And now Feaster was walking up wearing a muddy uniform that had obviously been under his car seat since the last game. Things were not looking good for a Farley Printing team that was favored in a playoff game for the first time in years.

Speaking of Feaster, the guy had a rough week and there were concerns about his focus. Out of any sport, football is the one sport where you need to be 100% focused every week, or else it shows up on the field. Just look at that D.H. guy on "Playmakers" -- his crack problem raged out of control, he injected fake urine into his own bladder, he slept with about 150 different call girls,

The following is an interview conducted with The Big Angry at Marbrook Financial Field after Sunday's game: Q: Can you comment on Sunday's game? A: We won. Easy game. Q: What about the incident with the fan? A: It was a easy game. I'm glad we won. That's about it. Q: Did you flip off a fan, Big Angry? A: I don't remember nothing like that, but if I did, I was probably wrong. But I don't remember doing nothing like that. I black out sometimes. (He winks). Q: You also didn't remember spitting on Adam Short? A: Why do you have to bring up old stuff all the time? Why can't we talk about good stuff sometimes, man? Q: If you did flip off a fan yesterday, if your memory does come back, would you apologize? A: Oh, definitely. When my memory comes back, I will. But, you know, I black out and have black flashes sometimes. Q: Is your memory about ready to come back? A: Yeah, I mean, there was something. Q: Here we go again. A: Here we go again, huh? It's another season. If something like that did happen, then I do apologize. But, you know, if that fan was a little more professional, you know, I probably wouldn't have had to do that. If I would have been a little more professional, I wouldn't have put myself in this position. So, if I did do something like that, I do apologize, but, you know, frustration sets in sometimes and you do frustrating things. Q: What did the guy say? A: I don't know. Something petty. Something that happened yesterday that's over with. It's in the past, and all I got to do is look forward to my future. Q: Was it anything racial? A: I don't know, because I don't think there's a racist person in Wilmington, so I don't really want to go there. Q: You talked before the season about being more mature. What happened? A: You try, man. I tried, brother, but I'll tell you, I'm not going to be 100 percent perfect. I told you I'm going to have a 10 percent lapse sometimes. Q: This is not going to come across well with the fans. Why not own up to your actions? A: C'mon, man. Y'all can't keep baiting, man. You're not going to bait me into doing something or saying something retarded. I mean, it happened, it's over, and we lost the game. We play The Franchise next week. If y'all want to talk about them, we can. Let's just get past this. Q: So, there was an incident? A: All right, thanks fellas.

and he found out that his brother was Snoop Dogg. Plus, he smoked hillybilly heroin on a UFO, ran for the governor of California, started a feud with Ja Rule and killed his blonde ex-wife and a waiter who was returning her glasses. You think his stats weren't affected? Of course they were.

Anyway, here Farley Printing was, one game away from the league championship. They may not have looked ready. But they were.

Here's where the "Smoking Hot Second-Half Teams" can explode -- the teams that start slow, turn things around, then roar to the finish like Peter North. It always happens around mid season, there's always one team in each conference, and you can almost always identify them without fail. Well, the Farley Printing Football Giants were one of them. Talent? (Check.) Early-season stumble? (Check.) Easy schedule (Not exactly.) Showing signs of coming on? (Check). A QB with a midseason history of pushing his chips into the middle of the table, then getting everyone to ante up? (Check.) And now they get the opportunity to fatten up on the Young Gunz.

On the defensive side of the ball, JoKer had replaced an injured L-Train and Geo was back to corner full time. The Young Gunz drove down to the 5 yard line but were turned back when Geo cut off the receiver and made a great interception in the endzone.

FPC's second offensive series was much of the same as The The Dutchman led the team down the field with a series of options and reverses. The Young Gunz were hopeless on defense. Feater rolled to the right and went deep to Randelli who made a brilliant catch between two defenders and - much to the confusion of everyone on Farley Printing - proceeded to juke his way through the defense and score on his own. Now Delli is what you might call a possession guy. He's a lot like Keyshawn Johnson, except he's a little shorter, his face is different, he's slower and white. But other than that he's a dead ringer. The point is, you don't expect the guy to being doing the shim sham on the defenders. When he's pulling that stuff off - well, you know it's going to be a long day. (Note: Delli would later score on a pitch from JoKer further showcasing his shim sham)
