11 years ago
Who's going to be our king of the football world for the 2013 season? We're down to it now! It has been decided: INDIANAPOLIS vs CONNECTICUT! A rematch for the ages and the virility of the 1970s prowess that was McCloud vs Fletcher - we will see who reigns supreme in 2013!

PLAYOFFS WEEK 3: Week of April 19, 2014 - CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND
(7) Indianapolis (12-6) 23 @ (5) Houston (11-7) 20 (OT)
At Houston, QB Marquis Pena earned MVP of the Game rights, earning their wildcard trip to the Pro-Team Bowl in overtime, devastating the underdog Texans. There were rarely any mistakes throughout the entire affair – no interceptions were thrown, and no fumbles were fumbled – and so it came down to who had the ball the longest. IND RB Duane Waller and IND RB Paris Hamm both got 20 touches each in the affair, as the coaching department penetrated the Texan defensive line. But the difference maker was the slightly-riskier throws of Pena – who achieved the highest QB rating thus far in the playoffs, and bought the Stallions another trip to the bright lights.
(3) Omaha (13-5) 12 @ (1) Connecticut (13-4) 17
At Hartford, the passing offense of Connecticut pummeled another team into destruction – Ron Cook could only muster 103 yards through the air, compared to Geordan Abraham’s 242. And although Omaha was better on the ground, the difference could not be made up – the Raiders suffered from a stout Connecticut defense that did not allow Omaha into the red zone the entire game. WR Arturo Starnes (Steenbok) was named MVP of the game for 94 yards through the air and a touchdown.

Pro-Team Bowl LV
Sunday, April 27th, 2014
(7) Indianapolis (13-6) v.s. (1) Connecticut (14-4) @ Richmond, Virginia
The Connecticut Yankees are favored by 4 points.
CON's Geordan Abraham (QB - Llama) has pushed his offense past many of the league's best in the playoffs, and it is their time to return to the spotlight on the national stage versus a long-time rivalry that was established many decades ago. Many people are salivating at the bragging rights to be reestablished. IND Marquis Pena (QB - Caribou) is none too afraid of the pressure. Having settled into the pocket during his 4th season, he is expected to make the game a viable contest. Both teams are seeking to claim their 6th and 8th Pro-Team Bowl win, respectively. An 8th win would break the tie established by the Baltimore Orioles last year, and put Connecticut back on top.

ANDY LANDERS IN HOT TROUBLE
Columbus' Andy Landers (DE - Tuatara) is in police custody on charges of Providing Alcohol to an Underage Minor and Involuntary Rape after officials say he took an under-aged intoxicated female Muskrat back to his apartment in downtown Columbus and had sexual relations with the girl. The girl then abruptly ran off from his building complex and called 911. Landers has yet to speak on the issue and calls were not immediately returned by his agent. A spokesperson for the Columbus Attackers told press that they are monitoring the situation, and had reportedly said that Landers "may not have known" she was underage at the time of the incident.
RICHMOND PREPARES FOR ITS FIRST BOWL
Fans of football are eager to bring the big game to Richmond, Virginia - home of the Virginia Falcons - to host the city's first Pro-Team Bowl. Despite the controversy of Richmond's situation with the Virginia Falcons, the city expressed satisfaction with the potential international attention. Richmond mayor John Hokesworth (Robin), congratulated the teams on their victories this Friday, but stressed that he "wished the Falcons had been on the big stage!"
Businesses are expected to bring in an estimated $5.8 million because of the event. Popular music performer 'Jackrabbit' is expected to arrive on Thursday in preparation for the half-time show.
