MADDEN.jpg.2adb41cfa8543d05b6a6443ba63e91e9.jpg(Long Island EFL Super Bowl XVIII). December 31, 2023 by Levi Vick. 

We gave Jim Brown a nice tribute this season because of his greatness and contributions to the game of football, and also, because Brown was a native Long Islander, who grew up in Manhasset, NY. Before today's LIEFL Super Bowl we also  reminisced and gave a fond acknowledgement to the late, great, Oakland Raiders Coach John Madden. Long Island Sports Hall of Fame Inductee, and All-County Wrestler and former Bay Shore High School football player, Andrew M. Slawson said, "Madden has a winning percentage of .759 for his career, the highest among coaches to win their first 100 wins coaching, according to Pro Football Reference. He won 100 games faster than any coach in the NFL, including Vince Lombardi, who finished #2 at (105-35-6). Madden finished his NFL coaching career at (103-32-7)!"  By the age of 42, Madden claimed to stop coaching because of BURNOUT and an ulcer condition he had. At his announcement to retire he left no speculation saying,“I gave it everything I have and just don't have anything left,” he told reporters, adding, “I'm retiring from football coaching, and I'm never going to coach again in my life." But wasn't he some commentator?

As America's greatest football teacher, John Madden got into broadcasting only because he was bored. But, he became the greatest football broadcaster of All-Time! Madden won 16-Emmy Awards and earned a hefty $8 million annually after becoming the first broadcaster to earn $1 million dollars a year. America couldn't get enough of Madden and in the living room he sat well in millions of homes as family gathered around to listen to his commentary. His X's and O's of the game, which taught us a greater depth of football and what professional athletes endure in such a violent game. Nobody called a game like Madden!

When XBox used Madden's name to represent the game, we never gave up on electric football! Rather than compete with video games we collaborated and shared our love for both. Our generation of the 1960's fell in love with electric football because of the heroes we watched on television turned into the heroes we played on our metal boards! Electric football to us, is the pioneer of this great innovation.

TRADITION BEFORE THE GAME: Before we begin this enormous-magnitude game, our LIEFL Super Bowl's have a tradition out of respect for our teams and the 22 67-Big Men on the field.  Commissioner Billy O'C's rules. Everything is in order. We wash our hands thoroughly, dip all 22-player bases in water, dry them out on a paper towel, touch up with any scuffed players with paint, any players who look worn through the season, and then we wash the field, first with hot water, then with rubbing alcohol to ensure that no lint particles are on the field. We aim for perfection out of more respect for the hobby and the teams. Finally, we place 10 vintage style brand new foam footballs to the side. Three footballs are Brown, (Inked by a Brown Sharpie) made to look like a real football, and the remainder are what we use for passing and kicking in the game.

SBLIEFL2023LOGO.jpg.40e9229fc40318fc5c8a2c6d2510cec9.jpgLIEFL Super Bowl X V I I I !The Falcons won the coin toss and they choose to defer the ball to the Chargers who will receive the opening kickoff. Atlanta will receive the ball to start the second half, as has been Johnny-Freeport's strategy in this high-stakes $3200 dollar game saved up from the league dues annually and a major contribution from our sponsor, a real life two-time World Champion Swimmer. The check is ready to be presented! The Falcons will wear their choice white jerseys' and the Chargers will wear gorgeous dark Jersey.

This game is a big DEAL! Johnny Freeport invited a house full of people. We placed posters on the wall, cleaned up, and we are ready for the MAIN EVENT with the water in view! The main Stadium was transferred. It has been set up beautifully with one of four sets of lighting we have, which hovers over the game board. Two chairs are placed beside each coach, and let the war begin! Because the Super Bowl is in Vegas, we will make the background Vegas. IMG_20240103_143640266(1).thumb.jpg.54a4706eac577fbaf347020f5887d9c1.jpg

They walked through #4 Green Bay beating them 24-14, they marched through #1 Washington 30-24, and they stormed through #3 Carolina 59-50, so why would we bet against Atlanta? It's not because of the team, it's because of the coach but Johnny-Freeport, no matter what anyone says in this league, he plays to make hi opponents feel that hurt, and when he loses, he is the loudest voice in the LIEFL. Freeport enjoys being the underdog, and he enjoys using his mouthpiece to stir up emotion in the league. Perhaps that's what makes him unique, and maybe that's why this is such a great League.

Alworth, with lightning speed

Lance Alworth ran the opening kickoff back 54 yards to start the game. LaDainian Tomlinson and the Chargers Frontline went to work on first down with a 9-yard pickup followed by a first down with Tomlinson getting the yard. On second down, he ran for six but was shut down on 3rd down after Johnny-Freeport moved his Falcons around on defense. The three linemen made a tackle each in Bill Fralic, Claude Humphrey, and Raymond Claiborne. But on third down Lance Alworth escaped on a 40-yard pass play down the left sideline to give the Chargers the first LIEFL Super Bowl XVIII touchdown and a 7-0 lead! The place is going wild with quite a few people here!ALWORTH.thumb.jpg.abe85716930c81542aa32840f322efe6.jpg
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngIt was time for Gerald Riggs and his golden frontline went to get to work on Los Angeles. Riggs was crashed at the 34 yard line by who else? Lance Alworth who just scored the touchdown for Chargers! On first down, Chargers defensive end LIEFL-All Pro Earl Faison rushed through the middle and made a big tackle! On second down, Gerald Riggs ran a 66-yard run from scrimmage to the one yard line of the Chargers and that ended the first quarter! 
To begin the second quarter, Riggs bullied his way into the end zone for the Falcons first touchdown to tie the score at 7-7!
CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngThis time the Chargers handed the ball to Sir Kellen Winslow who returned the ball 42 yards! On first down LaDainian Tomlinson exploded for 37 yards. On second down, Tomlinson picked up five more against the relentless Dirty Bird Falcons posse' defense. The front lines are about an even matchup in the trenches. On third down, coach Viggs threw a beautiful pop-pass to Tomlinson, and Tomlinson curved into the end zone to give the Chargers the lead 14-7, with 6:18 remaining in the half! And what has turned into more of a defensive game the Falcons have to work fast and kill the clock.RIGGS1wsb.thumb.jpg.8be9cf871b5b7eeef8f99d77e086edb7.jpg
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngGerald Riggs ran back of 55 yard kick return to the Los Angeles 45 yard line. On first down Riggs was stopped, and on second down he was denied again by a relentless Chargers defense. With time running down on the clock the Falcons and Johnny-Freeport connected with his new favorite Target Austin Cooper who ran 36 yards for the first down to the 11 yard line of the Los Angeles, and the Falcons called their first time out with 1:09 remaining in the half!
There have been great strategies by both teams and this one is going to be tough with 1:09. Do you run the ball, or do you pass the ball so that you can continue to kill the clock and leave the Chargers with no time left? After running one-yard on first down, the Falcons called their last time out, leaving :57 seconds left in the quarter, enough for one more try for Los Angeles to score.
WOW! It's game on! Atlanta receiver and the LIEFL receiving champion Julio Jones, broke free at the 11 yard line, and Johnny-Freeport hit him immediately over the line after Jones broke free to tie the score 14-14, with :47 seconds left forcing the Chargers to take their first time out.
CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngThis next run back is so important for Sir Kellen Winslow. Both of these teams are hitting hard and fast! The Chargers called the last time out. Unexpectedly, on the pick up play, coach Viggs made a huge mistake. He took his eye off the ball and Deion Sanders made a huge sack for a big loss on the quarterback at the Chargers own 24-yard line and the clock ran out with a tie score, 14-14! Johnny-Freeport has played flawless in the game so far. The Falcons will receive the ball to start the second half! Johnny-Freeport is going wild! $3200 dollars is on the line!
That last crucial play was the turning point for the Falcons because it stopped the defense stopped the Los Angeles scoring drive to keep them in the battle, but instead, they couldn't kick a field goal because they were out of range. Viggs tried to stop the game on that play to pass in our one-stop league, but it was too late, Sanders made the hit and Freeport called it clear! In the meantime at the same exact second of the sack, Chuck Muncie broke free on the right side of the field from Austin Cooper in Viggs didn't catch it until it was too late! BAM!
 
The two teams will go into the locker room with the score tied at 14-14.
 
So far for the most part it's been an electrifying game with even matchups, but the Chargers on the front line have a slight edge. They've been able to produce 56 yards in the running game by LaDainian Tomlinson. They've certainly done more damage than Atlanta on special teams. The Chargers have held Gerald Riggs to an astonishing 123 all-purpose yards. Neither defense up until this second have been able to stop each other.
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngGerald Riggs returned a gorgeous 63 yard kick return to start the third quarter! But here come the Los Angeles Chargers defense led by Russ Washington who wasn't having it. He stopped Riggs for a 2-yard loss on first down, and then another two yards on second down, forcing a third down pass play. On 3rd down, Johnny-Freeport was on the money! He put one of his best men on the right side of the field, Jamal Anderson, hoping that he could break open from linebacker Junior Seau.  On another big mistake by Viggs, he put on-on one coverage on Anderson, and Anderson just put on the afterburners and exploded for a 42-yard touchdown to give the Falcons the lead 21-14, with 9:32 remaining in the third quarter! Johnny-Freeport is getting the better of Viggy today! "Yeah baby, all the way, not today Viggy, not in my house," said Freeport!
Great play by the Falcons and Freeport!andersonART.thumb.jpg.a287c65770d5b538c901d451d118e7e3.jpg
CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngCoach Viggs is not shaken. He has to get this team right back in the game. That is the best way to answer. This time on the Chargers kick returner Lance Alworth ran out of bounds at the Chargers own 25 yard line, failing to get help the offense. But on first down, after gaining only one yard, LaDainian Tomlinson lit it up, exploding on a 26-yard run and then an 18-yard run behind LIEFL-All Pro Earl Faison, ending up at the Falcons 31-yard line! On a game scoring save, with Los Angeles driving, Falcons defender Deon Jones made a great tackle on Tomlinson, with 3:17 remaining in the third quarter, and instead of this game being an offensive explosion, it's been a defensive battle all the way!
Sometimes you just got to go with your money man. Ed Viggs is loyal to the players who perform. On the next Chargers offensive play, it was Tomlinson again getting the job done! Tomlinson exploded around the left side for 31 yards sprinting into the end zone through a gap by the Atlanta Falcons and the Chargers tie the war 21-21 with 1:58 remaining in the third quarter!
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngGerald Riggs, the NFC Offensive Player of the Year in the LIEFL, has had an awesome day returning the football, and it's kept the Falcons in the game, this time with a 52 yard Riggs run to end the third quarter!
hooperART.thumb.jpg.2fc261914f4ee865dd9e1e51557190e6.jpg
We have the final 15 minutes in Long Island Electric Football League's Super Bowl X V I I I  and its conclusion, with the score tied 21-21. 
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngOn the first play of the fourth quarter,  Gerald Riggs gained three yards. For the most part the Chargers have contained Riggs from making another huge play like he did in the first quarter when Riggs had a blistering 66 yard run on Atlanta's third play of the game. At the line of scrimmage the Los Angeles defense has done a beautiful job holding back one of the most prolific players in the game, but it also says so much about the Chargers defensive line in this league overall.  And, the fourth quarter clock is moving. Johnny-Freeport is calling pass. My goodness! Austin Cooper broke away from defender LaDainian Tomlinson on the pass to blaze 56 yards downfield into the end zone to score a Falcons touchdown! Johnny-Freeport is going absolutely wild! The  Falcons take the 28-21 lead with 8:26 remaining in the game! WOW!
Great call by Johnny-Freeport, taking the ball in the second half and deferring and that's called paying dues! If he wins, he's not going to let Coach Viggs live this down, but he certainly will walk away with $3,200 dollars in his pocket! What an exciting play by Freeport, choosing the right player to become the playmaker. Hooper has has a fantastic tournament!

Again, the defense continued to press for both teams! Two runs by LaDainian Tomlinson gained back a few yards for Los Angeles after the seven yard loss with the ball at the Falcons 27-yard line, chewing up the clock, with 5:41 remaining in the game! More clock eating with more running from Viggs and his (8-1) AFC Champion Chargers. On a third down play for Coach Viggs coming up, it pressured Viggs under the stress of managing the clock, to make another big call, forcing the Falcons to call a timeout this time, with 1:04 remaining in the game from the 5-yard line of the Atlanta. Strategy right to the last seconds of the game. Coach Viggs did not stop the clock! He made the Falcons call their timeouts and try to drown them out in an extremely stressful situation, trying to edge the game into overtime. On the next play, LaDainian Tomlinson broke free, just breaking the plain of the endzone, touching the line of the endzone to tie the game at 28-28, with just :28 seconds left to go in the game! Oh My God! 
The Los Angeles Chargers and Coach Viggs still have two-timeouts remaining. And the Falcons call their last time out. If there was any time to be a hero this is the time for Atlanta to step-up by scoring a touchdown to prevent this game from going into overtime!
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngWhat a game! With :28 seconds left in regulation, Gerald Riggs ran the ball back 91-yards, 9 yards short of their goal, and with the score tied 28-28 if there wasn't enough drama in this finish line, the Falcons had to kick a field goal to take the lead 31-28, and it's not over yet!
CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngWith 11 seconds left in the game, the Chargers called a time out, and Los Angeles still may get one more chance to score and tie the game, depending on how fast their fastest player can run the ball back! The pressure is on Viggs to make the right call! Viggs picked Sir Kellen Winslow to return the last kick to try to get the game into overtime in a Super Bowl thriller! On the other side of the ball, the Falcons lined-up their fastest players to make a big stop, and to put this game to rest. It's been all strategy right from the start. Both coaches played a spectacular game regardless of the outcome!
Winslow gets the call from Viggs! Oh my God! Here we go: Sir Kellen Winslow blasted off from the endzone launch pad to the 50-yard line in 6 seconds! The Chargers accomplish the impossible! They kick the field goal from 50 yards right through the center of the Goal Posts to tie the game, and Oh My God! We are going into overtime! What a historic Super Bowl! WOW! The Chargers win the overtime coin toss!
CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngThe score is tied, 31-31! So far, neither team has been able to stop each other. The coaching has been spectacular!
The Chargers get the football after winning the coin toss!
CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngKellen Winslow and the Chargers explode on an 88 yard kick return by Winslow! What a game, Winslow could have just come close to winning this game, but he fell 12 yards shy! Whoever scores the first touchdown wins the game in first overtime which is ten minutes. If neither team scores, the game goes into another Sudden Death. We will explain the instructions at that point. Both teams get a possession, unless a touchdowns is scored.
If the Chargers score touchdown, it's over the only way that this game ends, and if they score a field goal, then Atlanta gets a chance to tie or score a touchdown. It's a thrilling heartbreaker to get one more possession on offense. What a Super Bowl! The atmosphere, the energy, the game, the coaching ... the $$$ ... Electric Football at its best!  The last two plays by Kellen Winslow really show why the Chargers have won so many games. They are very tough team to beat, but Atlanta has to be the most badass gritty posse' we've seen in this league in a long time! LaDainian Tomlinson has played great today and the Chargers did a great job containing Gerald Riggs.

No more than one 10-minute period will follow a three-minute intermission. Each team must possess, or have the opportunity to possess, the ball. The exception: if the team that gets the ball first scores a touchdown on the opening possession, the game is over!

CHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngOn first down LaDainian Tomlinson was stopped by a brutal and imposing Falcons defense, with nothing but white jerseys coming at them and the Dirty Birds definitely have the same attitude as the coach today. Johnny-Freeport is living through the posse' and he's not going to give up against the Los Angeles Chargers offense!  The Bids heit the Chargers in the gut with a loss of 15 yards on that play. Coach Viggs is 22 yards from the end zone and winning Super Bowl XVIII. Johnny-Freeport has to stop this play with 4:48 left in the overtime quarter. 
 
winslowART.thumb.jpg.876d720dc771fc92d2c5ce8f7de7134a.jpgCHARGERSTD.png.ab31ed0b2b72121d8aa6b2b89cff6f52.pngKellen Winslow broke Free on the next play toward the left side of the field, but he went out of bounds toward the end zone, and somehow he turned to the sideline faltering on the play! and Viggs didn't stop! Next he connected with Lance Alworth who picked up nine yards bringing the ball to the 18-yard line of Atlanta. And the Chargers are going to be forced to go for a field goal after coming up short of the first down they needed. Coach Viggs has to really think this out, but being under pressure in the LIEFL posed its problem for Viggs. He doesn't have time. The clock is running and that's the thing about the league forces the coach under pressure to make huge decisions. Viggs does not call his time out, and instead, he's kicking the field goal for the sure three at the 18! That's going to give the Falcons their chance to score. A touchdown would have ended the game. 34-31 Chargers in the lead in a Thriller!
FALCONSTD.png.47d7dd82144c59bb2c8591a6afc9d2a9.pngAfter a 53 yard kick return by Gerald Riggs, the Falcons chewed up the clock and took their first time out at 7:55 in the 10 minute period. The Falcons had to work fast. They passed the ball with nobody open, but who broke free? Gerald Riggs, on a risky play Riggs caught a beautifully thrown rocket by Johnny Freeport, bringing the football to the 33-yard line of the Chargers at 8:58, and the Falcons call their last time out of the 10 minute overtime before going to the second sudden death overtime! hooper2ART.thumb.jpg.acdafc1c4528eeb3aae93665fb579052.jpg
This game may get tied again. Here we go: Johnny-Freeport called pass, and what a play to end the game! And hold onto your seats! Austin Hooper just broke free at the 33-yard line on a terrific pass by Johnny Freeport who hit him at the 10 yard line on the back, and Hooper sped into the endzone for a game ending dramatic $3200 dollar victory for Johnny-Freeport's Dirty Birds posse!!!  It's over! The Chargers fall in one of the greatest LIEFL Super Bowl's of all time!
The NFC Wild Card Atlanta Falcons (9-2) win their first ever Super Bowl in a crushing defeat in overtime, literally 9 minutes of overtime! Johnny-Freeport is uncontrollable, going wild with the 36-34 win!
What a tough loss for coach Viggs! 
And it's time for everybody to bow to the mouth of the league as he upsets coach at Viggs, and Viggs had the chance to win the game on the last drive by a touchdown, but LaDainian Tomlinson and the front line could not get the job done in the end. It was an exhausting intense game to the finish! Credit the Falcons defense because they played gigantic today in their victory! Unbelievable!
After everybody calmed down. The two key plays of the game where Austin Hoopers 56 yard touchdown play in the second half along with his game-winning touchdown 33 yards! Hooper will share the MVP trophy with Gerald Riggs who was the workhorse for the Falcons in driving the clock entire game for Atlanta! 
ASBmvptrophy(18)(1)HOOP.thumb.jpg.6e87e62f747fbb611331e0ea08f443fc.jpgThe other keys to the game was the mistakes that a usual assured and competent coach Viggs made in the game. Lance Alworth missed in the big spot. He didn't get the job done, but LaDainian Tomlinson rushed 18 times for 169 rushing yards, with two touchdowns, Tomlinson also had a 17-yard touchdown reception for the Chargers. Sir Kellen Winslow had 318 yards on 6 touches with a Long play of 88 yards on special teams!
For the Falcons, Gerald Riggs touched the ball 17 times for 433 yards, but Riggs only had one touchdown, and he had a gorgeous 91 yard kick return when Atlanta needed it most. He was electrifying on special teams.
Great defenses kept the game in check and limited Riggs on his 100 yard returns. The hero of the day went to Austin Hooper, who had three receptions for 125 HUGE yards with two touchdowns and that's what did it! Johnny Freeport still going wild with his $3200 check to advance his bank account. What a game.
The Falcons totaled 611 yards with 22 touches and five touchdowns. The Chargers finished with 29 touches 632 yards with four touchdowns!
Unbelievable season!
 
Coach Johnny Freeport said, "I worked so hard on this team all year long, and I believed in them. Let me tell you I don't think there's another league in the country playing for money, and when you play for money and put everything on the line, your team's have to be able to compete. Viggy is good, but as I've been saying all along I am the go-to guy, and now the GOAT in the league. It's time I get a little respect because to beat Viggy is the greatest compliment that an electric football coach can have. How about those Falcons! Yeah baby!"
 
Ed Viggs said, "We played good, they played  great right up until the end when in that last series I blew a couple of plays under pressure. I should have been able to handle that, but I got to shake Johnny-Freeport's hand. He played an amazing tournament and his Falcons and those Dirty Birds came up huge when they needed to. Nothing but respect for Gerald Riggs and the Falcons. And Austin Hooper came out of nowhere. It just goes to show you that every team in this league is armed and ready, and you never know who's going to come up big. We'll be back for one more in August. This Chargers team is one of the best in the league and they are resilient. We will be back again next year." Coach Joey Pizz said, "Everybody is so happy for Gerald Riggs who's been a staple superstar in this league and now finally he has a Super Bowl win to his credit. Riggs may not have had a 100-yard touchdown, but boy did he kill it setting the Falcons up with great field position on almost every possession. He is the workhorse behind the Falcons machine complimented by a great players around him."

You're welcome!! I also posted this on Facebook. Hopefully it will bring more people in too. 

"Just want to emphasize again the importance of the Tudor Games Forum to The ELECTRIC FOOTBALL Community. This is a very valuable source of information that you won't find anywhere else especially here on Facebook since most of the people on there do not have Facebook or any other social media accounts.  Very lively discussions on a wide range of topics related to electric football."

Congratulations to Johnny Freeport and his Atlanta Falcons.

Coach Ed Viggs and his high-flying Los Angeles Chargers (8-1). Viggs would like to put a bolt in the Falcons. The Chargers have been here before but left very dissatisfied with the outcome when they lost to the hometown Los Angeles Rams in 2018, in LIEFL-Super Bowl XIV, 31-28! It is a sore reminder to Viggs of how close he came to winning that Super Bowl, and it is also in the back of his mind to correct. It's just how the successful and quiet Wall Street Guru thinks. "That loss was too close to not come away the winner," said Viggs. Viggs is coming into this game focused and determined to pull this one off...

Also congratulations to Coach Ed Viggs. I suspect this overtime loss hurt more than the 2018 loss. I have a team, the Shamrock Bay, which has been to my Fruit Bowl nine times and only won three times. Like the Kelly/Thomas era Buffalo Bills it seems impossible that such a great team doesn't get to hoist the trophy. Ask the Minnesota Vikings — they understand.

Doesn't matter. Only two teams go to the Super Bowl and all the other teams are sitting at home watching.

Coach Viggs will be back. Everyone knows that. It's like an itch that can't be scratched. Viggs is coming and next time he's bringing the pain for the other guy. 😃👍

Enjoy the Journey    T43.   🏈♾️

LOVE THIS! That is correct just two teams make the show, and love the 9X FB Shamrock Bay team! Three wins is great! Did you do write ups? Maybe I missed them now that I have been a new contributor to the Forum, taking over for Billy O'C. Love to read more about them, those classic teams who outplay everyone are few and far between. Shamrock Bay reminds me of the LIEFL Dolphins, and although this is only my third season in the LIEFL, next year will be the last.  Are these player figures 67-Big Men in the Fruit Bowl?

Viggs is the man! But he will have to listen to the loudest mouth in the league in Freeport for some time. We will see Sunday, LOL! Levi

I just played my 32nd Fruit Bowl and all the highlight videos are there.
