Who's Your Daddy?


It's time for Madden between yours truly and his coworker Tye daddy. a battle of titans with alot of trash talk and bragging rights galore on the line.

First Quarter
Tye daddy (Buccanears) takes an early lead when Chris Simms heaves it into the end zone. Extra point is good and Tampa's up by seven. Seattle (Bartenderpho) opens with a long bomb that gets deflected at the last moment and is reduced to a three-and-out. Things aren't looking good for Seattle. During Tampa's second drive Simms throws a lame duck and Seattle comes away with it...looks like Simms is quickly living up to his reputation. Starting 10 yards from the red zone Seattle quickly gets it into the end zone through a series of short, west coast-style passes.

Second Quarter
Quarter two is nearly a stalemate until later in the second with Tampa in the red zone, the Bucs are held behind the line of scrimmage on 4th and lose the ball on downs. It seems Simms forgot to hand the ball off to Williams. Seattle walks in the lockers with the only score in the second quarter, a field goal.

Third Down
Seattle gets off to a quick start throwing down field and getting within field goal range. Kick is good Seatlle up by 6. On the following drive Williams gets to show off that speed running 64 on a defense that's getting really sleepy out there. Extra point is good Tampa up 14 - 13.

Fourth Down
This is it folks Seattle's down by 1 and Tampa's tightening the defense. Hasslebeck squeaks the ball into the end zone through a good mix of run and pass and couple of REALLY nice catches. Alexander's going to need the oxygen after this one he's getting clobbered. Seattle goes for 2 catching Tampa off guard on special teams. Tampa now needs 7 to tie. Shortly after the second Seattle touchdown with about 4 minutes left on the clock. Cadillac uncharacteristically drops the ball at the line of scrimmage. A Seattle DB scoops it up and takes it to the house. Extra point is good. Seattle is up 28 - 14. This could be the turning point of the game....now Tye daddy is hurting and needs two touchdowns to recover. While on the run however, Simms decides to lob another lame duck to Seattle's secondary. With Seattle on offense RB Alexander finally breaks a run over 10 yards and gets to dance in the end zone. It's 35 - 14. On the next possession, Tampa's Williams loses one more fumble to a vicious hit near the sidline and Seattle's safety takes the ball in, making it 42 - 14. So with all the good natured trash that flowed before the game Bartender will be able to return to work with head held high after a well played match.
