Oxford Wins, 45-26.

Oxford faced a team that still did not have a name as of this writing, which makes a blog post difficult to put together. Calling them by their Zog code name of ZKSTB-5 or whatever just doesn't have the same punch. Oh, well--here goes.

Led by Fantasy Football star Taylor, the Commas built what appeared to be a safe lead by halftime. Jon B. picked off a pass and scored both a touchdown and a conversion. But after halftime, the defense allowed the team with the alien name back in the game; suddenly, it was 26-20. Brian whipped the defense back into shape while hypnotizing them with his flowing locks. The team responded with two big interceptions, putting up 19 points in less than three minutes. It was an offensive burst that culminated in a score from J.C. to Taylor, followed by a conversion for birthday girl Ash. (I should mention that this was the second week in a row that both quarterbacks threw touchdowns. Jane threw and caught one the week before--sorry for not putting that in the blog, Ms. B.!) Later, Chel had several receptions to keep the no-names' defense on the field. As a result, Oxford was able to run out the clock, ending the game at 45-26.

So, that makes us 2-0. At the request of Taylor, who scored more often than I could count, here is the Inspirational Clip of the Week (the full version is off to the right).

All of the highlights are from the bar this week.

The Commas show how they try to scare people.



Jon gets kicked off the team for claiming that the Commas wear "Honolulu blue."



How not to give a postgame speech. (This is actually from last week. Again, thanks, Taylor. Jackass.)
