tacrec Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Eh, the Smash are pretty inconsistent. The Mutants have been averaging almost 23 points per game, so they're on fire. With both teams playing the two weakest teams in the network coming up, it looks like the Smash might come up short. I'm just now realizing what a stab in the heart today's loss was.

mthompson Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Beamriders have found the end zone first and lead the Sharks 7-0 at the end of the 1st quarter. HALFTIME UPDATE: The Sharks have taken a 10-7 lead at halftime. 3RD QUARTER UPDATE: A Beamriders field goal puts the score at 10-10 after 3 quarters. Looks like this will go down to the wire. 4TH QUARTER UPDATE: Halfway through the 4th quarter it's Beamriders 13, Sharks 13.

mthompson Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 A field goal with 3 minutes to go is enough to give the Beamriders a 16-13 win in a tight one against the Sharks. Later today the Spartans and Bombers will fight it out for a share of the Battle Network lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthompson Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) After the first quarter of play, the Bombers are leading the Spartans 9-0. HALFTIME UPDATE: The Bombers have added three more field goals and now lead the Spartans 18-3. 3RD QUARTER UPDATE: The Bombers keep pace with another three field goals to take a solid 24-3 lead into the 4th quarter.

mthompson Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 A scoreless 4th quarter, and the Bombers have a 27-3 victory and a share of first place in the Battle Network with the Destroyers. A lot can still happen with two weeks to go. Check the standings on the IFL website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthompson Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Everybody went big with their predictions this week, but only 135 points were scored. Star castler came the closest, and he wins an Intellivision Football League t-shirt just in time for the holidays. Congrats! Let's do this again next week. Send me your guess for total points scored and you could be the Week 6 winner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I put the Bombers v. Armada and Destroyers v. Spartans back to back. I gotta do a better job of these schedules next time. I was looking forward to a battle of first place. This network could end in a tie for the championship shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthompson Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) The Mutants are putting their 4-1 record on the line today against the 2-3 Beamriders. The Beamriders have made two goal line interceptions, but the Mutants still have a 10-0 lead after 1 quarter. HALFTIME UPDATE: Still a shutout. Mutants now lead 13-0 at halftime. 3RD QUARTER UPDATE: Mutants have added two more field goals and extended their lead to 19-0 heading into the 4th quarter.

Oscar G. Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hello, this is a fun thread. I am wondering if the Intellivision Football League T-shirt will eventually be available in your web shop. I have the other two models of Tshirts and there are awesome. Cheers to all!

mthompson Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 The Beamriders avoid a shutout, but the Mutants come away with a 26-7 victory and improve their record to 5-1, best in the IFL. Later today it's the Bombers and Armada fighting it out in the crazy Battle Network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Ugh. Again it's going to take a miracle for the Smash to get to the Championship. If the Smash loses tomorrow, the Mutants clinch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The IFL shirt will be in the shop for anyone to order after tomorrow's games. It's been fun giving these away. Glad you like the shirts you've got so far! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthompson Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Today's second game is underway. At the end of the 1st quarter, it's Armada 10, Bombers 3. HALFTIME UPDATE: Both teams have doubled their points, and that gives the Armada a 20-6 lead at the half. 3RD QUARTER UPDATE: Neither team could manage a score in the 3rd quarter, so it's still 20-6 Armada heading into the 4th.

mthompson Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 The Armada come out on top in the only statistic that matters: points scored. Armada wins 20-13 to put both teams at 3-3 for the season. Two more games tomorrow starting at noon Central time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mthompson Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) The lowly 1-4 Sharks smell blood in the water. They lead the Smash 16-0 at the end of the 1st quarter. HALFTIME UPDATE: A field goal by each team makes it Sharks 19, Smash 3 at the half. 3RD QUARTER UPDATE: Another field goal by the Sharks gives them a 22-3 advantage going into the 4th quarter.

mthompson Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 The Smash shut out the Sharks in the 4th quarter but managed to score only a field goal. The Sharks play spoiler and beat the Smash 22-6. Tonight's game is a big one. A win by the Spartans would create another 4-way tie in the Battle Network.

tacrec Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Yikes. The Smash sure don't deserve a title shot after getting devoured like that! Once again the Smash fail down the stretch. Sorry for the lack of uniforms and helmets for the teams, I wanted to but haven't had the time. If someone else wants to, go ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mthompson Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) The Destroyers are trying to put some distance between themselves and the rest of the Battle Network. So far it's Destroyers 6, Spartans 3 at the end of the first quarter. HALFTIME UPDATE: It's still anyone's game, as the Destroyers lead 9-6 at halftime. 3RD QUARTER UPDATE: Both defenses hang tough, but the Destroyers get another field goal and lead 12-6 going into the 4th quarter.

mthompson Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Neither team could find the end zone, but the Destroyers' five field goals are enough to beat the Spartans 15-6 and give them a one game lead in the Battle Network. Intellivision Football League personnel are taking next week off, so play resumes on December 29 with the final week of the regular season!
