Best fantasy half ever? (1 Viewer)

[cardbard]

Here's one:

In the inaugural week for my now 16-year-old National Feetball League, on Sept. 4, 1994, Dan Marino threw for 330 yards and four touchdowns and Irving Fryar had 211 receiving yards and three TDs -- in the second half alone. Vick's performance nearly but not quite surpassed Marino's still-standing Feetball league record; Fryar still has the highest-scoring receiving game in our league's history (scoring note: we did give double points for TDs that covered 50 or more yards back in the dark ages but gave very minimal points for yards).

I think Shaun Alexander had 5 TDs in the first half of that Sunday Night Football game a couple years back, although he may have had 4 and added the 5th in the 2nd Half. But yeah, for Quarterbacks, I don't think I remember much better. Peyton may have had 5 TDs v I want to say the Saints, around 2003. I remember him having a 6 TD game, just can't remember how much of it came in the 1st half.

I remember that game. I think it was Al Michaels who said at halftime "Seattle won the toss and elected to kick the living beejeezus out of the Vikings"

Had Alexander on my FFL team at the time, and was down 20 going into the game. I was watching the game with the guy I was going up against that week who's also a diehard Vikings fan. Many beers were consumed by him if I recall correctly.

Oh, how I remember that game. That was my first year playing fantasy and I had just traded away Alexander. To the guy I was playing that week. It was horrible, and I made a rule that I will never again trade with the person I'm playing that week.
