49ers lead way to an All-Ron TBFFL Bowl


The San Francisco 49ers may be 6-9, but in the TBFFL, they are world beaters. Terrell Owens set an NFL record with 20 catches, passing the record of 18 set by Tom Fears in 1950. Tennessee's Eddie George ran for 3 touchdowns in the snow against the Cleveland Browns in a 24-0 shutout. Owens' 33 points and George' 32 for Seattle (10-6) gave them a 90-58 lead over Pittsburgh (11-4-1) in the TBFFL semi-final after the Sunday afternoon games.

In the other semi-final, Texas (10-6) clicnhed the victory over the Atlanta Flying Fleet, leading 48-40 Sunday. Atlanta (11-5) held a 25-8 lead after the 1:00 games with the "Purple Attack" of the Baltimore Ravens, Trent Dilfer, Jamal Lewis and Qadry Ismail set to "open it up" on the Arizona Cardinals. Lewis ran for a touchdown and 126 yards as Baltimore beat Arizona 13-7, but Dilfer and Ismail combined for just 1 point, which opened the door for Texas to get to TBFFL Bowl I, as Jeff Garcia threw for over 400 yards, and 27 points.

Rob, who benched Kurt Warner, Cris Carter, Tim Brown and Al Del Greco to try to shake things up, was disappointed Sunday Evening. "Well, I gambled and I lost. Cris Carter had a touchdown. Ahman Green had a big game. And the Ravens didn't do anything. I figured they'd beat the Cardinals 48-0. I just hope Warner doesn't have a big game tommorrow night. Trent Dilfer! Hah!"
