On a blistering cold Friday night, we had two competitive championship games. In the Women's Championship, Naked Authority won a tightly contested battle against Ballhandlers (this shouldn't be the end of that rivalry). And in the Men's/Co-ed Championship, ME defeated Breakfast is for Closers.
Congratulations to Naked Authority and ME...2008 Fall Flag Football Champions.

Championship Games - Friday, November 21, 2008 - IM Fields
Predicted Forecast - cold as sh*t with a chance of snow.
Womens' Championship - 6PM EST
Ballhandlers v. Naked Authority
Another chapter in this heated rivarly. Second only to UVA-UNC for the South's Oldest Rivalry in football, this game will undoubtedly be filled with the passion and emotion that can only come from three years of squaring off in the law school flag football championship. Naked Authority will be looking to avenge its loss to the Ballhandlers earlier in the season.
Mens'/Co-Ed Championship - 7ish PM EST
ME v. Breakfast is for Closers
This game has more back stories than a season of Desperate Housewives. Travis Campbell, Spencer Bolander, and Brian "BR" Mills, all members of Breakfast is for Closers, teamed with the members of ME to capture the undergrad intramural flag football championship less than 3 weeks ago. Also, before the season began, ME's team management looked into going co-ed with current female members of BFC. However, this fell through. Then by some bizarre coincidence, BR Mills defected to BFC despite winning a championship with ME last fall. League officials are currenlty looking into whether BFC violated league policy by contacting a player still under contract with another team. With these juicy plot lines, this is sure to be an exciting championship game.

Shoutouts
In lieu of recapping old games before the playoffs, I've decided to give Shoutouts instead.
Shoutout to ME, for being the only team to go undefeated.
Shoutout to Hung Jurists, for winning 5 games in a row after starting out 1-2. Look out for them in the playoffs.
Shoutout to Kristen Booros, for the juicy love note you left me on the bottom of the score sheet...although you may be the worse score keeper in history. Booros was the only person all season long to keep both teams' scores in one column instead of using the very distinct columns provided on the score sheet. It's ok, I forgive you.
Shoutout to Ryan Shannon, QB of The Pac, for giving us a glimpse of Dan Marino in his younger, yet still immobile, days. Did you know Dan Marino had 87 career rushing yards in 17 NFL seasons? Amazing...
Shoutout to Matt "Sugar" Dahl, for all that he did this season. Sugar became so adept at setting up the fields that he could probably do it in his sleep. Actually he might have been asleep while setting up the fields on a few occasions. It was always fun to guess what the dimensions of the field would be each week. Sugar also has the longest active streak of not missing a league game.
Shoutout to Nick Christie, the league's #1 fan, for showing up on a weekly basis and even reffing one game. This is more than I can say for Corey "C-Mony" Pollard, who might have showed up twice and was seen cavorting around with His Giant instead of showing up to flag football.
Corey and His Giant
Shoutout to The Dude from WWR, for doing his best Anquan Boldin impersonation last week (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWDA67sdfPg&feature=related). Last week his head bounced off the ground like a basketball, but he fought through it and continued to play...although he was just running around in circles yelling "Look boss, de plane! de plane!" (I would just like to say that Andquan and The Dude were fine so it's ok to have a little laugh at their expense).
Shoutout to WWR, Ballhandlers, and The Pac (although they jumped on the bandwagon late), for continuing the tradition of team unis. Rahman's Noodles had a solid showing for 1 week but not enough to get a shoutout. I'm still looking to get picked up by Ballhandlers for next semester. I'll wear a wig and change my name to Juwanna Mann so we can play in the girls division.
Finally, Shoutout to my Co-Commish, for showing up just as many times as I did, if not less, and coming up with creative excuses for not showing up such as "I didn't feel like it" or "I was pretty tired." Thanks, you're the best!!
For all those who didn't receive Shoutouts but were expecting them, I do not apologize.
Guest Shoutouts:
From Gene Pierson...Shoutout to all the cute 1L girls. Holler at me...
From Bryant Thomas...Shoutout to all the cute 3L bitties. Holla at me...
From Sarah Minner...Shoutout to Matt Dahl. I definitely know why they call you Sugar!
