GoldDiggers fall short of predictions, succumb to TheMuffinStuffers in 111.38-107.00 nailbiter

There's no easy way to say it, GoldDiggers underdelivered, at least according to projections, as TheMuffinStuffers eked out a 111.38-107.00 victory. GoldDiggers had a chance to come from behind on Monday night, but it wasn't to be. TheMuffinStuffers led 111.38-95.00 after Sunday's action and held on for the win despite 12 points from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense on Monday night for GoldDiggers. Aaron Rodgers (38.43 points) and Dalvin Cook (27.25) were the stars for TheMuffinStuffers in the victory. TheMuffinStuffers (7-4) will look to keep it rolling against Honolulu Blue Myself, while GoldDiggers (6-5) attempt to get back in the win column against Viva Las Raiders.
