Buckets Get Dumped By Bunnies Yet Again, 24-17

West Hollywood- The Bunnies just seem to play great against the Buckets every time- and on this occasion they held off a late Buckets rally to prevail 24-17.
 
"They have our number. They made the plays again and we didn't. We made it interesting in the end but hats off to Alex K for another fine win!" Buckets Coach Tando said.
 
Trailing 17-0, Los Angeles slowly crawled back in it and made it 17-24 and had  the ball with a minute and 23 seconds to go - but the Buckets could not move it and fell short for the 7th straight loss to West Hollywood.
 
Great game Bunnies Coach Alex!
 
Cheers,
 
Jay

Bunnies almost blow 17 point lead

West Hollywood - The Bunnies jumped out to a 14-0 halftime lead and extended it to 17 halfway through the third as West Hollywood threatened to run away with the game.  Mr. Momentum changed jerseys suddenly when Big Gay Al was picked off in West Hollywood territory.  Mr. Mo helped the Buckets to score on the next two drives and the lead was just 17-10.  
 
Big Gay responded with a 76 yard TD drive to score what looked to be the death blow leading now 24-10.   The Buckets had the ball on thier 6 with only 3:37 left on the clock when Carlos Myles busted out his 2 longest runs of the day to lead LA to a 96 yard scoring drive in just 1:36.
 
The Buckets defense held and gave the LA one last chance with 1:30 left in the game and no timeouts but they couldnt move the ball.  Final score 24-17, WH
 
Coach K: "We know the Buckets bring a unique and frustating defense, so we decided to throw a few new wrinkles at them and it was enough to get it done.  Our pass blocking today was the best I've ever seen it and that was the difference in the game.  Our plan was to pass, pass, pass and it worked today.
 
Tando is one tough bastard.  Just when we thought we had him buried, he came back on us twice and nearly tied it under almost impossible circumstances.  I tip my hat to him."

Fagge shines in the spotlight, has career game

West Hollywood - The first game after he was the featured player in the new West Hollywood profiles campaign, Fagge responded with a career receiving day.  The 5th year back caught 11 passes for 123 yards, both career highs to raise his season totals to 35-352-0 also season career highs.
 
"I'll take the touches however man.  It took me 3 years to learn how to catch the ball and today you see I can catch.   See mama, I don't need no books!"remarked a very happy Adrian Fagge.

Buckets-Bunnies Battle Looms Ahead

Buckets-Bunnies VIII
 
Los Angeles- The Buckets ( 9-1 ) are gearing for their 8th match-up with their chief rival the West Hollywood Fluffy Pink Bunnies ( 9-1 ) in the WFFL’s Game of the Week 11. Some would say that it really isn’t a rivalry at all since the Bunnies have dominated the series winning six lop-sided games in a row since losing to the Buckets 14-7  at home in their first-ever meeting in the 2003 season.  
 
Both teams enter the game with identical 9-1 records- the best start ever for Los Angeles and it ties West Hollywood’s best start last year when they won their 4th consecutive Insane Bowl Title.
 
The biggest game the two teams have played was the Insane Bowl 3 – the WFFL’s 2005  Championship Game. The Bunnies prevailed 23-14.  
 
Buckets Coach Tando thinks the match-up is over-hyped, “I don’t think we can even call it a ‘rivalry’ anymore. That first WFFL game when we beat them is now looking more and more like a fluke because they have blasted us every time since then. I mean, come on: 6 straight blowout wins for them is not exactly a competitive series!”  
 
But the Buckets may prove to finally have a team to pull it off this time. On Offense, Rookie RB Carlos Myles has really stepped up to replace Anthony Wolf as the featured back. He has already surpassed the WFFL Rookie records for rushing yards and TD’s after only 9 games and is on pace for a stellar season. Wolf has moved to Fullback and has not carried the ball this season- but has blocked well and has also caught the ball pretty good too with an eye-popping 31 yards per catch average on the season!
 
The Buckets Defense has really stepped up against the run but has sucked against the pass. Even though they lead the WFFL in sacks, they have given up a ton of yards in the air. “We run a gambling blitz package- we either get the big sack or the other teams get a huge pass play off on us. Nobody has really tried to run on us- and why should they? Our DB’s aren’t the best coverage guys in the league.” Tando said.
 
Good luck Bunnies Coach Alex!
 
Cheers,
 
Jay

West Hollywood - Its Bucket week at the Fluffy Pink Bunny headquarters and everyone knows it.  Its a game that is circled before every season as a must win game as pride is on the line.  Its LA vs WH, Pink vs Blue, Straight vs Gay.  
 
Coach K- "This is always a big game, but this year its even bigger.  We are both 9-1 and stuck in this 6 team log jam fighting for the #1 seed in the playoffs.  We both want to keep pace and we both want that tiebreaker.  And of course we want to paint the town our own color.  It should be fun."
 
LB Evan Gladhump-"I've been here for all the great games and had the pleasure of chasing down a legend in Anthony Wolf, now I get to get go after some fresh meat in Carlos Myles.  He better watch his ass, and I do mean literally, cuz I am coming after it!"
 
RB Juicy Cheeks-"The funny thing our rivalry is that we always seem to come up with some surprises to really throw each other off.  I remember last year they came out throwing.  I think they threw 29 of the first 30 plays.  I just couldn't believe it.  Hopefully we are gonna have a few new wrinkles they aren't prepared for."
