McAlister's Deli Playoff Recap R1G1

Team 4 - 50

Team 2 - 37

Indianapolis - The PFOL playoffs started on Monday, but someone forgot to tell Team 2. Within 3 minutes of the tip off, Team 2 found themselves down 16-2.

"We got off to a horrible start, everything that could go wrong went wrong for us", said Alan Mowrey.

Team 2 was able to regain some composure and trim the lead to just 5 points at half.

However, Chad Lilly and Kyle Krol refused to let their team lose as they hit shot after shot to stifle any run that Team 2 would start to put together. Team 4 also used a physical, border line dirty style of play that caused 9 timely turnovers.

"If they want to play physical, I can play physical. I haven't started throwing my weight around yet this season, but if that's how they want to play, then let's go", said Alan Mowrey who was spotted at Steak N Shake "bulking" up for tomorrow's rematch.

Kyle Krol led all scorers with 20 points.

Game 2 is Tuesday at 11:45am. Tickets are still available.

Team 1 - 56

Team 3 - 52

Indianapolis - Team 3 learned early Monday morning that they would possibly have to forfeit the game because Eric Flatt (knee injury) and Richie Smith (work) would both miss the game. Team 3 managed to piece together a team and not forfeit.

Team 1 got much more than they expected from Team 3's scrappy reserves.

The game was tied at half and many people in the crowd started to murmur about Edmound Elzy's career post season record. Elzy has only won 1 playoff game in his career and signs were pointing towards another post season let down as Elzy allowed the short-handed Team 3 to stay in the game.

"If Lemay and I don't go a combined 0-16 from 3 point land, we win that game", said Jesse Cacy.

"I feel really good about our chances tomorrow", said Eric Flatt. Flatt and Smith are expected to play tomorrow. "That team has some chemistry issues", said Flatt.

Flatt was referring to the embarrassing on-court argument between Troy Brokl and Edmound Elzy. Brokl subbed into the game for Elzy in the first half but Elzy refused to leave the game. Elzy was overheard yelling at Brokl: "Edmound Elzy has never been subbed out of a game in PFOL history and it's not gonna start today. Go sub someone else out".

Team 1 held on for the win and avoided an embarrassing loss but after the game Brokl and Elzy weren't done with their feud.

"You measure yourself by my stats, said Elzy"

"As GM I am going to ask the commish if I can suspend you", said Brokl

"I am the PFOL, I heard the commish is going to use my silhouette as the PFOL logo next year just like Jerry West", said Elzy

Game 2 is Tuesday.
