Michael's Misfits come up short of expectations, succumb to TX4vida in 128.72-103.56 beatdown

Michael's Misfits failed to rise to the occasion, as TX4vida cruised to a 128.72-103.56 win. Michael's Misfits got out to a 2.40-point lead on Thursday, but it was all TX4vida after that. They were led by the Buffalo Bills defense, who didn't allow any points, surrendered 109 yards, and forced 5 turnovers for 30 points, and Saquon Barkley, who racked up 126 yards from scrimmage and scored 2 touchdowns (24.6 points). Austin Ekeler (26.5 points) and the Cleveland Browns defense (12) did their part for Michael's Misfits in the loss. TX4vida (3-1) will look to keep it rolling against Losthope4Houston, while Michael's Misfits (2-2) attempt to get back on track against Brown Stains.
