The MCFL season is now behind us, and we are into the playoffs and the first round is in the books and we now know who will be in the respective conference championships.

Let’s start with the Northern Conference

Bird Gang vs Leydon Lions

Just admit no one who has followed the league and the teams playing in the league gave the Lions much chance to come close to being competitive, not even sure what the final score was in this game, but does it really matter, the Bird Gang did what we knew they would do and that is beat the Lions. The Bird Gang will host the conference championship at their home field next Saturday.

Hurricanes vs LCW

This to me was the biggest upset this weekend was the one sided but kicking that the Hurricanes handed to the Warriors, and once again the Warriors who were one of the favorites in the league to make a run to the Championship. And now the Hurricanes will get to try to beat the Birg Gang, they tied them in the regular season so will they be able to pull this off?

That brings me to the North Conference

Sharks vs Falcons

What can I say about this game, other than it was bogus display of garbage. 0-0 going into the third quarter were both teams apparently could not score against each other, I mean each of the regular season matchups between these two teams have been low scoring defensive battles, so not surprising.

While I was not there at the game, so all I have to go off is account from people I have talked to that were there and involved with the game is that one team, we won’t say the name anyone reading this already knows who it is apparently added and illegal player and the other team caught it and called them on it, and there was some arguing going on, which seems to be a theme with not just the MCFL but a lot of leagues with adults acting like children and not grown adults, but that is for another time. Back to this game, I have not heard an official word yet from the league on a decision of who will move on in this game but just from what I have seen, and read adding a non-roster player would be grounds for a forfeit and the Falcons would be the ones moving on, that is the only thing that makes sense to me but like I said I was not there or am I on the league board so we shall see who the victory goes to, and who will travel to Indy next weekend. When a ruling has been handed down the teams will be the first ones to know, and we all know it will spread like a wildfire across the social media and everyone will know.

So, does it really matter who goes to Indy, it can be Sharks or Falcons, hell the Bison have not played a game in a month so someone suggested a double header, and we all know the Bison would be for it, but outcome is the same in the end, I will let you determine what that is….
