Girlie Men Triumph Over Queens
The Girlie Men Express won its first victory in league history this weekend, with a solid 217-160 victory over the KV Casino Queens of Kirksville, Mo.
"The Sportslady" got off to a rough start in her debut as a fantasy football coach/general manager. The Casino Queens led by as many as 40 points on Sunday, thanks in part to a stellar performance by KV quarterback Tom Brady. The University of Michigan graduate passed for over 300 yards and three touchdowns.
Girlie Men quarterback Steve "Air" McNair couldn't keep up the pace, managing just one touchdown pass and 73 yards in the air.
Instead, the Express won with a solid ground attack. Running backs Bryan Westbrook and Domanick Davis combined for over 200 yards and two touchdowns, along with an additional 112 yards in receptions.
The Girlie Men had already clinched a victory over the Queens before star running back Ahman Green entered the game. Green had the strongest performance of the weekend, with two rushing touchdowns, one touchdown reception, and 116 total yards.
The Casino Queens loss also came at a price. Wide receiver Charles Rogers suffered a broken collarbone in the first quarter. He'll be out for the remainder of the season.
The "Sportslady" was satisfied with her team's performance in the opening week, though she acknowledged that there was plenty of room for improvement. "We only scored 25 points between three wide receivers. I hope that the team can work out our differences with Keenan McCardell in the near future. He's not an asset to us if he's sitting on the bench every week."
The Girlie Men (1-0) will take on Chuck's Senior Citizens (0-1) in week two of the Frozen Tundra fantasy season. The Seniors are led by running back Tiki Barber.
