Buckets Field, Los Angeles-
The Buckets had the chance to tie the game with no time left and the ball on the 1-yard line after a Port City penalty but chose to go for 2 instead of the extra point to tie and got stuffed for the loss, 17-16. L.A. QB Bruce Dassler was a miserable 3 for 18 passing- but he hit WR3 Terrell Ownens for a 42-yard TD with no time left on the clock to cut it to one point- but Coach Tando's gamble for the quick win fell short.L.A. Rushing Thompson 26 att/177 yds, 1 TD; Maitland 4/8, 0 TD

Excellent job, Kevin- thanx for the replay!
Pre-Game Hype:Buckets Field, Los Angeles- The Port City Panthers (6-1) invade L.A. (6-1) on
Thursday (7/17) @ 6 PM Pacific Time/8 PM Central- should be a great match-up!
The two coaches squared off 3 times previously last season: a 14-3 L.A. preseason scrim
win, an L.A. 24-10 win over Hoquiam with Kevin sitting in for the Grizzlies coach, and the
2005 NFC Championship Game with Kevin's Panthers beating L.A. 24-6.
I hope to do a little better this time ;^)

Week 8 Pix
L.A.'s ball on Port City's 42 yard line. Second and 10 to go. :13 left in the fourth quarter. The score is Port City 17, L.A. 10. The pass from L.A.'s QB1 #5 Bruce Dassler is caught by WR3 #86 Terrell Ownens for a gain of almost 42 yards. Touchdown, L.A.! That made it Port City 17, L.A. 16 at the buzzer- but on the extra point attempt the Buckets went for 2 and the win but were stuffed for the loss... A great game!!
