VFB LIMBO - Round 2.5 of the VFB6
I explain the VFB Limbo Situation we are in, and Oli and Elliot give a final extended World Cup update to fill some time while we wait in the NFL game postponement decision, as well as to see if the Bills player is going to make it out of the hospital. If the game is postponed to play within the next 7 days, champions are likely Mark and Becca, but if it’s postponed by 8 days or more then the champs are Joey and Pam. Strange VFB times INDEED! Rex Kwan Do mathematically secured the VFB6 medals champ mug and it’s in the mail to Illinois.

Legion of Doom, Glenda’s Glad, and Joke Ended BK9 also secure the final playoffs spots at 6th, 7th, and 8th place. Despite some colorful language, Oli is here for an improved World Cup update with commentary on the the quarter and semi-finals, and Elliot tries his best.

Jan 06, 202226:29
VFB 5 - Round 2 - DIRTY NAMES RISE
Roger and the Redskins prove once again that consistency wins as he travels to the VFB Championship to face-off against Glenda's Trash Pandas. Glenda's first VFB Championship and possibly the first female VFB Champion after Roger beat Becca and the Human Trash last year. Both teams have trash in their name, VFB keeps throwing bags of trash at the Rog, and he quickly recycles them.
Down in the B-Team Championship, Pam's Peaceful People have risen to the top to face-off against powerhouse Alyssa and the Cracks who barely missed out on the playoffs back in week 14. It will be an uphill battle for mom as she and Patrick Mahomes try to get the Peeps' name on a coffee mug, but with a little yoga and concentration exercises next week, she'll be drinking coffee out of that sweet mug by the end of Jan.

VFB 5 - Round 1 - IMMA MAJOR UPSET
Two major upsets in the first round of the playoffs with San Antonio Marksmen taking out the number 1 BK9, and U MAD BRO taking out number 2 Legion of Doom.

VFB 5 - Week 13 - FIRE UP THE DOGS
Firedogs get their first most points medal this season at 147 and better their playoffs chances; Legion of Doom loses his long standing 1st place in the league with a weird loss to the Original Brooklyn Nein, allowing the “true” Brooklyn Nein to slide into 1st place; Mark and Jessica choose to abide with playoffs spots on the line
Dec 07, 202118:19
VFB 5 - Week 12 - THE ASS
Alyssa and the Asscracks gets most points and moves up in the medals race. Playoffs are approaching, with 7 teams having a greater than 80% chance to grab one of the eight A-Team Champ Mug spots, and just one spot left being fought for by 4 teams - Asscracks (70% chance to grab the final spot), Firedogs (50% chance), Bagel (20% chance), and OBGYN (Jaime - 5% chance). Alyssa and Joe/Tracy play eachother next week and this will likely decide who gets the 8th spot.
