The MFFL championship game has arrived. This year it pits previous rivals against each other, in an all out do or die scenario. It's a match-up with one team on a 7 game winning streak, while the other has won 6 of 7. TPD and Loco have separated from the pack, and now they will lock horns to see who holds sway at the top of the food chain.
TPD continued to roll in their semi-final match-up scoring 168 points, the most for the week yet again. In scoring 168 points, TPD set a semi-finals record. TPD is once again on the precipice of history, a place they have been many times before. A win this week would secure their 4th MFFL championship, specifically their 4th in the last 6 years. A win would also cement their team as being the greatest of all time. It was simply an all time historic draft, made even better after their trade for Adams. But perhaps TPD's greatest move, was the moves they didn't make. How often does TPD hold onto their 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 7th round picks? Never is the answer, but this season, they knew they had something special from the minute the draft ended. Even after slow starts from Taylor, Allen, and Pitts, none of them were ever available for trade. TPD's faith was rewarded in the biggest of ways. They hope the players return the faith in kind, and secure the ultimate goal come Sunday.
Loco's second half resurgence carried over into the first round of the playoffs, where they scored 137 and beat McCoy for a third time this season. Everything is coming together for this roster. Guys are getting healthy and stepping up, just when needed most. This is Loco's 2nd championship appearance in the last three years, as they chase after their first title. Unquestionably their best season ever, it would become even sweeter if they were to beat TPD in the championship. They will try to turn previous TPD players against them, as Pittman and Carter were both acquired from TPD, and both have become weekly producers for Loco. Loco's been able to survive at RB since the CMC injury, but they will be hoping for more out of their RBs this week. Mahomes has returned to MVP form, while their WRs and TE have carried them all season.
The lineups for both squads are potent. Both teams have star players in smash spots, so expectations should be to witness a high scoring affair, with the last team holding the ball likely coming out on top. The two best teams this season are ready for war, both bringing their A game. What more could you ask for? The stage is set for one hell of a show. Get, your, popcorn, ready.
