FFL "Spoiler Sport"- Week Eight Wrap Up

After a rough week at the seaside, I'm Cotton McKnight and this is "Spoiler Sport" on ESPN eight- The Ocho!

First let's see who was a splish' and a splash' over in the Stan Lee conference.

It's was rough seas ahead for Beckerman's Backyardigans, who remain a win ahead in the the J.R.R. Tolkien division, but were pretty much dead in the water when they ran into Griffin's High Maintenance Dope Fiends and Destroyers. Dope Fiends MVP Poseidon was the final nail in the coffin for B3, who still have a position in the playoffs locked in, despite this slight misstep. Griffin thus far has a perfect score against divisional rivals, we'll see if he's able to go for the trifecta and advance to the play offs as he faces Brock Samson's Murderflies. The Murderflies are looking to avenge their heartbreaking and controversial loss to TEAM, with Aquaman once again showing why he's the king of the oceans.

Over in the Frank Herbert division, the playoff picture is a bit cloudier as we have a three way tie for first, and the "last place" team is only a game behind the pack. In a shocking turn of events, Team Sleeping Pussy swabbed the deck with defending  FFL champion Michael Vick's Bad Newz Kennelz of Lurve. Namor and Aspen were the difference makers in this match, which puts the defending champs in a must win position this week against Xavier's Annihilation Squad. Speaking of XAS, they also found themselves on the wrong side of an Aquaman as it was the Kingdom Come version of the orange shirted dynamo who led Layander's Super Orange Kitties and Cats Living Together to Make a New Family to victory. The playoffs are not totally out of the Kitties Claws, as a win over the Pussies would be the cat's meow and give Layander a shot at the championship.

Over in the Lucas conference. The streaks continue! The Transfoamers couldn't sink the mighty "Pop Superstar" Hannah Monatana and President Barack Obama's "Best of Both Worlds" Touring Battalion of Commandos"  as recently acquired Commando Black Lantern Set paid big dividends for the 8-0 juggernaut. On the other side of the coin, the Tijuana Taco Benders hopes of a victory were sunk by George Washington's Slaves incredible water team.

In the Spielberg division, the first place Brotherhood of Evil Midgets suffered a major wipeout at the hands of Logical Genocide. Even worse news for the Midgets was the Horsemen of the Apokolips managed to continue their divisional winning streak as they pulled out an incredible victory over a hungry Better Than All of You team. The Midgets now find themselves tied for first place, and their grip on the top seed in the playoffs hinging on their match this week with the Horsemen.

That'll do it for this week. Keep it locked here to the Ocho as we head into our final week of the season. Who's play off dreams will come true, and who's will be shattered? Is there any end in sight for the streaks? Join us as we broadcast across the country and time from sell out crowds in some of the most famous arenas in the world.

For Spoiler Sport, and the Ocho! I'm Cotton McKnight. Thank you, and good night.
