Week 3 has come and gone, and the sun FINALLY graced the fields at the Rose Garden as the action kicked into high gear. The day was filled with a lot of competitive, high-scoring games with the adrenaline (and alcohol) flowing! By this point in the season, we start to see who the contenders are, who are the pretenders, and who needs some work down the line. Based on what we have seen so far, it looks like this may be the most competitive and tight TSL session yet. With all that, let’s get into the action!
Breakfast Club
Komosexuals 42, Liddle Dubs 38
No, the winning scores were not all 38 this week, but Komosexuals did better than that! Looks like Nina knows how to draft after a strong 2-0 start. Jeremy Streit was his usual consistent self, showing off his strong hands and play-making ability. The star of the day was Mackenzie though, as nobody could keep up with her. They tried changing defenders multiple times on her to no avail. Dave Baker was all over the field making plays, and we have to assume that he gave his all at 9am which impacted his play later in the day.
D1
TEIM 27, Frodo Swaggins 22
It hasn’t been the start to D1 Garrett hoped for with Frodo, but he has to be optimistic at how they have been coming along the last couple of weeks. TEIM is starting to gel a bit better with their new QB, Tall guy Derek is making plays out there, and it appears that Baker skipped this game to play his D3 game? Garrett played well, but made a big mistake that may have been the decider. I will be interested to see Frodo later this session, they seem to be improving.
Losing Streak 39, Eyes Downtown 38
This was the game of the day, and it did not disappoint. Jordan Lawson was feeling disrespected in the rankings, and he proved himself right. Bobby McConnell appears to have cut Seth and replaced him with Jordan Neidig, which is not a bad move considering how good he is, but was a disappointment for the ladies because, well, it’s Seth we are talking about! Chris Nelson, Keyon, Ralph and John looked more dialed in than Lebron in the Bay Area, flying all over the field on both sides of the ball. Jordan Lawson claimed he had that cat in the bag from the coin toss. LS made the game-winning stop on ED two-point conversion attempt.
D2
Mavericks 41, Practice Squad 37
For all the questions surrounding whether or not B and his group of practice squad players could contend in D2, the answer is YES! If I am not mistaken, every game has been within one score so a stop here, or a score there could be the difference. Jordan Lawson is rocking with his D2 squad, and they are having fun. Jordan delivered the game-winning throw, pointed to the heavens and said “that’s my wife!” Anna Lawson is awesome and consistent, nobody has a better reach before being tagged than she does.
Freeballers 50, Mavericks 41
It appears the Freeballers took a break from getting mad at each other enough to get a big win to get them back on track! Dylan was awesome, finding his open receivers all game and making plays. George Lombardo, Adrian Cannon and company were great. Freeballers have a couple of fast girls in Jesse and Talia, so good luck defending them.
D3
Itches and Ohs 22, Bullet Club 21
BC was a bit short-handed, with the guys running iron man, but they got off to a hot start scoring on their first couple of drives. Langley showed some rare speed catching a deep ball early (His ego didn’t need any more puffing). Itches was led by league villain Steve Moser, and teams still haven’t got the memo that he is absolutely going to throw to his girls 5 times a drive. The "best of the Mosers’" case was made by Rylee, who ended up catching the game-winner from midfield.
Jabronies 41, Degeneration SeXy 28
Joe Miano looks happy again (getting away from Kicak will do that apparently) as he drove his team down the field time and time again. Bro kleckler continues to make his case as the superior Kleckler as he flashed on defense and offense, showing that Dad strength that he has. Degeneration SeXy (better known as the Keller clan) are still in search of a win, but they are competitive and you know Katie won’t let them down.
D4
BAADies 28, Creekers 21
We have a ladies team win! BAADies is so absolutely loaded with the lady talent that Garrett couldn’t mess up this time. Creekers is the new team on the block. They are looking to show off their skill, and their guys are intense and athletic. Garrett made the play of the day, snagging a one handed interception (he will be talking about that until the banquet, you can be assured of that) and ran endzone to endzone, only stopping once halfway through to take a puff of oxygen. Garrett claims he was perfectly sober, but I am not so sure of that.
Cunning Stunts 35, Cobbletstone 26
Joey Batts was feeling the confidence after getting a Legends win earlier, and brought it right to his CS game. Joey B made use of the best girls in the league, leaving Cobblestone with their jaws on the floor as Renee, Brandy and Emily used feats of athleticism and skill that leaves anybody who knows them unsurprised, but those who don’t in awe. Taylor Pagano showed some sportsmanship for the first time in her life by getting the opponents ball for them. Daryl Carr Superstar didn’t seem to jive with his receivers until the second half. Perhaps if they clicked a bit sooner, they would have swept the stunts off the floor.
D5
Gucci 33, Goatsack! 27
Very close game here, with Gucci in control most of the game. QB Kelly Kane routinely delivered deep passes to her receivers and orders them to go get it. Chris Wolcott snagged a deep ball, without gloves, and immediately flexed on the field. Goatsack kept their spirits high and battled putting up 27 points and nearly coming away with their first win (which, to their credit, they DID get 60 minutes later).
Come from Behind 34, ILF 12
Paul Lovullo is a stud at QB, has better hair than Daryl, better arm than Mike Thomas, and the kindness of Steph. What a complete guy! CFB dropped 34 on ILF, taking mid-range shots to their tall guys and the ladies eating up chunks of yards on the outside. CFB made it look easy. Christina Nelson for ILF is becoming one of the best ladies out there, catching every wobbly pass from their very questionable QB. She was the lone saving grace for ILF.
D6
Southside 52, Blitzkrieg 6
Not a lot to say on this one, as Southside makes their case as the team to beat in D6 as many assumed this was a preview to the D6 championship. It was a tough go for Blitzkrieg with a lot of turnovers throughout the game. Tyler Cienmy found his girls all game, and put up a ton of points. The game got a little heated at the end with the teams needing to be separated, but by the sounds of it, cooler heads have prevailed and this should be a non-issue. Remember, we are all here to have fun, so let’s keep our heads and move on!
Two Tuddies 41, Balls Deep 14
It would appear by this point Two Tuddies has entered the upper echelon of D6 at this point, as they dismantled Balls Deep. Their QB is very good at finding the open receiver and his guys and girls make plays all over the field. Balls Deep is out there learning the ropes and having fun while doing it. They did earn a safety and had some incredible touchdowns, so keep an eye on them down the line!
That’s it for this week. The weather is warming up, the competition is going to kick into another gear, but most importantly, remember to have fun, hang out and meet some of the awesome people! Until next week, and remember, I will be watching!

This was a day of upsets! It felt like on Saturday almost every team that wasn’t supposed to win came out on top. It was the first rainy day at the Rose Garden all session and I can’t help but wonder if that had anything to do with disappointments. Cold, rainy weather may have leveled the playing field for some teams and helped others to unleash their inner monster to get the victory and be able to move on to the final week of the greatest coed touch football league, not only in Western NY, but in the entire universe! The Bar had the fire pits going and it seemed like more people that normal were hanging out at the bar and inside than in previous weeks. That’s all it took was some cooler temps and a little rain to get people to cancel plans and stay and drink with their friends. Maybe pushing the session up wasn’t such a good idea as the colder weather seems to be better for the social aspect. If Topper ever returns I may suggest that to him. Now let’s talk about the good stuff, Shall we…
Breakfast Club:
Team Jennacide 28, vs. Amber Alert 20. This was the first of many upsets of the day. We all predicted for Amber’s monster roster to blow everyone out of the park and win the first ever fall Breakfast club session but Jenna and her team had something to say about it. To all of our surprise Garrett Bessing actually turned out to be the better QB in this one. He was so elusive in his play. No matter who rushed him he constantly maneuvered around them to make the throw to his wide open receivers down field. But let’s not talk too much about Garrett, don’t want his ego to get bigger than it already is. Jeff May couldn’t complete a pass and Amber Hay had many dropped passes, not the game to not play well in. Those combinations all helped bring Jenna’s team to victory, at least for this week. I wonder what their bet was… Maybe Amber is showing up this week as Cookie Monster or something?!?!?!
Division 1:
Scared Hitless 37, vs. Tight Ends 25. The next upset on the list to talk about is how the underdog of the division came into this game with something to prove. Scared Hitless must have been studying how to beat Tight ends because they came into this game and looked like the team to beat. The Mighty Cat Peters made an appearance and balled out. She seemed uncoverable. Tight Ends had Robin Makula cover her and she could not keep up. Cat had multiple catches for multiple yards and a touchdown. Cat was on fire and Robin looked like she’s been out of the game for too long. SH had Jeff Reynolds at rush, Bro could not see over him and did not have time to run around. All around Scared Hitless had better play. Seems bringing Bro back did not make them the team they once were like we all thought.
Division 2:
Dilfs 43, vs. Untouchaballs 37. This one did not go how I expected. Jeremy Burr, of Untouchaballs, throws a pick the first play of the game. And I thought, damn this game is over. But then they crawled their way back to winning by half. Ryan Dombrowski and Matt Helm having a major impact to bring them back from the disaster Burr created for them. They had incredible catches and were not letting Dooby make the throws he wanted to complete passes. After halftime, DILFS just seemed to click. Dooby was out of his funk and Travis Cleavenger proved to be the receiver they were missing all session when Dooby was MIA making him play QB.
Division 3:
Practice Squad 30, vs. Mountain Dew me 14. Glasses made his return to the field for the first time this session and did not play well for MDM. They would have fared better if he sat this one out. They tried to have him cover PS girls and he couldn’t keep up with any of them. On offense he had numerous drops, two drops were for touchdowns. I guess PS’s game plan of not covering him because he cannot catch and cover everyone else worked well for them. The weather clearly helped PS by slowing down the numerous blonde brothers on MDM and Brandon Ford came to win. I do not think I saw any incomplete passes from him. He hit the second best Lance, Kenny for major gains down the field and Ashtin Fiegel made a diving catch in the end zone for a td. Has PS found their way in D3 or was this a fluke? Next week is the test!
Bullet Club 29, vs Get Schwifty 15. Nick Angelo stepped up to play QB for GS a couple weeks ago and it proved to be the wrong choice. The only move he has as QB is to scramble, a lot, and throw cross body to try to complete a very hard pass for minimal yards. GS should have started in a lower division or actually get a qb to show up and play. Let’s not forget that they also have Carlton Coatsworth on their roster who can play qb but they choose to go with the lesser option in Nick. I guess when you have Blasé Deluda as your second best receiver on the team it’s not going to win you many games especially going up against a team like Bullet Club, who is arguably a little too good for the division with the addition of Pete Walbrandt and the always solid when he’s not hurt, Anthony Deak. John Langley ended up throwing for the team which I thought was going to be bad but turned out to be a good surprise. He has good vision and a strong arm to make major plays and get the win for his squad. Surprised I said he had a strong arm, yeah me too. I blame it on him actually throwing correctly in this game and not doing the side arm pass he normally throws.
Division 4:
Zak Attack 55, vs. Vaspian 18. Vaspian has struggled all season to get things going. With a mixture of no one showing up, not having a Qb almost all session and them not having any girls they have not done well this time around. Brian O is their actual Qb and was there playing yesterday but he couldn’t complete a pass. ZA had their full roster and they were on fire. They finally looked like they are a D4 title contender in this game. Andrew Piatek on ZA provided the rush which contributed to the beat down they handed Vaspian. He had a couple Sacs which were detrimental to Vaspian’s game plan of trying to throw the ball up as high and far as possible for Twain Crosby to catch it.
Division 5:
Today’s Feast 14, vs. Woodpeckers 13. Woodpeckers tried to bring out the big guns by inviting big wrestler Dan back to play. It did not work in their favor however as Todays feast has been showing improvement all season. Dan did not do their team any favors and should have stayed home. Bring back the Mosers to play as they seem to have the most success when they are playing for the team. Dan was slow and couldn’t cover the very fast and shifty TF bunch. I don’t even think WP got down to the red zone more than twice to take advantage of big wrestler Dan’s height. Maybe they should stack their roster with the Monstars again for a chance to win, or just get more reliable people.
Division 6:
Punt Cakes 24, vs. Superior Moser Squad 18. After so many failed games and failed sessions it looks like Punt cakes has finally figured out the game. I do have to consider this one an upset though, I was really routing for Lauren Moser to dominate in playoffs as Qb. That girl has been on fire all session. She is a force to be reckoned with and I hope she and Rylee stick around and play next session. They have figured out how to play Qb and are doing better than most men in this division. Now if that team could get better more coordinated receivers they would be all set!
Only one more week of football to go! Then Saturday’s will become boring and unenjoyable for a while, so even if you do not play you should come out to support your friends, heckle your enemies and drink lots of beers. I hear it’s supposed to be the last nice day on record for fall at a HOT 67 degrees. Wear sunscreen and expect to stay all day and night to drink at the bar, we all know the Angry Buffalo needs our business!
See you all for one last Saturday!

And just like that it is playoff time, it’s hard to believe that the season is almost over, just a couple weeks left of fun with our friends before we all take a little time off to rest our injuries. The weather reminded us that we live in Buffalo. With the wind bringing the cold, there were people bundled up in winter clothes and on the opposite side of the spectrum you have people who are still in shorts and a tank top, or even crazier, shirtless! With fall fest going on, attendance was light, people wanted to go watch leaves change colors and drive far to drink a lot. People need to remember that Angry Buffalo is a bar! Why drive far to drink when you can walk steps to the field and drink, you can even drink while you play!! I challenge people who do not normally stay at the bar after their game to stay to eat, drink and meet new people. With that let's get into it.
Breakfast Club:
BDSM, 40 vs. Messy Jessies 17. Kyle Conniff has no issues finding targets on this one. There isn’t a stud in this game as he spread the ball to everyone. Captain Becca Dominesey questioned the ref Stoner Dave multiple times on the calls he was making, she was upset that he seemed to be favoring the other team. Can you blame him? The Messy Jessies needed all the help they could get! They had a very rough game as their captain never showed and neither did anyone else on the team. Jessie Kieta being a first time Captain showed her inexperience in drafting a team that was not committed to play. This game felt like BDSM had a bye week going into the championship week.
Division 1:
Sticky Bandits 31, vs. Grey Hair – Don’t care 31. This was a preview of what we are going to see in the first round of playoffs. Which team will make the right adjustments to come out on top? Sticky had zero answer for Amber Hay. While sticky offense seems a little tired after the beat down, they put on the game before playing Passed our Prime. I know that SB can score and play great defense, but can they put it all together to avoid a big upset or will Dave Eickhoff of GH choke in the playoffs as usual? My bet is on Dave Choking
Division 2:
Frodo Swaggins 21, vs. Tight ends in motion 20. Crossover Game. What a game it was. There was a ton of trash talking going on from both sides. We all thought that Tight ends were back to their old ways, but Frodo had something to say about it. Frodo has proven week after week that they are the team to beat. It seems adding new players, Sean Weisensel and Val Bernal, and dropping old ones, Blasé Leduca and Emily Schilling has helped the squad reach their potential. That and poor game management by TE’s will help you win. If they could have played better offense and made the extra point on a TD or had more time on the clock maybe, they would have had a chance to come back and win this one. Sorry Bro, looks like you aren’t turning out to be as good as everyone has hyped you up to be.
Division 3:
Itches and Ohs 41, vs. Practice Squad 31. Who is the better qb here? You can argue this both ways but It seems that Steve Moser continues to show that he has Practice Squads number. Is Brandon Ford starting to decline? Renee Lantz continues to show she is one of the best girls in her division. PS’s defense should start to listen to her. They need a change to even have a chance to win 1st round playoffs.
DILFS 42, vs. Buffalo Vice Retro 29. This one’s for the girls! On one side you have Katie Keller, Kelly Sabo, Kellie Mazur. And on the other you have the powerhouse duo of Rachel Parker and Caitlyn Mason. And they all showed up and balled out. But in the end. DILFS have Travis Cleavenger which is a step above Seth for BVR. He is smart and has Qbed a gender squad in the past. He knows how to utilize the girls talents and will always put his team in the position to win.
Division 4:
Puckett All-Stars 46, vs. Spinelli’s Plumbing 30. Puckett is a solid squad, even without their all star DeMario Rhodes they were methodical and calculated. They showed they can catch whatever comes their way. Spinelli’s was mad about it. The QB of SP had some choice words for the receivers on Puckett and was also caught yelling at his own team. Dude needs to chill out and have more fun. Hopefully he just gets really into the game and isn’t that intense all the time.
Interdimensional Lightning Falcons 41 vs. Buffalo Vice 20. ILF came into this game ready to show that they can still win even though the great Joe Miano is on the IR. They come in with Derek Pew at the helm. The team with the longest name on earth scores fast and often. Is Alex Baker starting to outgrow his father’s shadow? Buffalo Vice fell behind quickly and never seemed to get anything rolling. Do they need to combine the rosters and make one team again? Or do they just need to drop down another division?
Division 5:
Woodpeckers 32, vs. Let’s Get Reccked 16. You can’t win football games when your quarterback shows up 20 mins late. And even when Denver was there, he did not perform well for Let’s Get Reccked. Probably should have sat this one out and let anyone else on the squad throw for them. At least they are still the fun team, well they were supposed to be. At the beginning of the session, we were all promised that they would be best at the bar every week… haven’t seen them up there once. It’s your time to shine, with only 2 weeks left in the session, you should go up the bar and drink ALOT to make up for all the weeks you were supposed to be there and were not!
Passing While Intoxicated 30, vs. Come from behind 16. Colorado Mike took a back seat and let Buddy Lee Qb for PWI in this one. Good things happen when you actually have your QB playing for you. PWI looked fast and young. CFB couldn’t keep up with the speed and youth. Ryan Dombrowski is a difference maker and defense having a pick which took all the momentum CFB was building away from them. CFB just couldn’t keep up.
Division 6:
Two Tuddies 27 vs. Lenny’s Ladies 8. Is TT starting to find themselves at the right time? Coming into this week the only thing I knew about them is that they were all really nice people. I still don’t know much else except that their Qb finally learned to use his girls and isn’t always trying to hit them deep. I don’t know her name but a blonde girl on this squad dusted Stephanie Czaja on an out and got lost behind her while she covered grass to make a great catch on the sideline for a handful of yards. Hey blonde girl, I see you. Making great catches, diving on defense. Keep it up!
With week 8 wrapping up and only having 2 weeks left the question now is who will be the Fall 2022 champions? I hope to see many faces at the bar this week even with many teams having a bye. Most importantly, who will be best at bar this week? Hopefully it will be someone new that we haven’t got to meet yet. Or maybe it will be a regular contender, I’m talking to you Dave Walters. Until next week. Remember I’ll be watching.
