Girlie Men Edge Cornfed
In the narrowest game in franchise history, the Girlie Men Express squeaked past the Kirksville Cornfed 197.1-194.9 in week four of the Frozen Tundra Fantasy Football league.
Player of the game Johnnie Morton was the difference-maker for the Express, clinching the victory in the fourth quarter on Monday night, with five receptions for 64 yards. The Girlie Men had trailed the Cornfed by 12.2 points before Morton entered the game.
The Girlie Men were led by running back Brian Westbrook, who posted a combined 178 yards. Backup quarterback David Carr, acquired just days before the game, also performed admirably, with 228 yards through the air and a touchdown pass. Regular Girlie Men signal-caller Steve McNair was sidelined with a bruised sternum.
"Now we have some difficult decisions to make," said Girlie Men General Manager/Coach "The Sportslady." "We have three quarterbacks on our roster, all capable of leading this team to victory. Unfortunately, we really only have room for two quarterbacks. We'll monitor their progress over the next few days and try to determine what to do from there."
The Cornfed drops to 1-3 on the season, despite a solid performance from quarterback Peyton Manning. The Girlie Men improve to 3-1.
Next week, the Girlie Men express faces its toughest challenge of the 2004 season, the undefeated Waukesha Blackazzez. Waukesha is led by quarterback Brett Favre and running back Thomas Jones. Jones, however, will be unavailable to play this weekend. Westbrook, the Girlie Men's leading rusher, will also miss the game.
