The Sheboygan County Rebels dismantled the Kettle Moraine Titans 14-0 to remain the only unbeaten team in the WSFL. The Rebel defense is unstoppable.
The game was clinched in the 4th quarter with a 70ish yard fumble return for a touchdown by the amazing Rodney Elison.
Congrats to the Rebels for being the only unbeaten team in the WSFL. Yes, it is 2:45 in the morning, I might have been out tonight.

Week 8 - Clash with the Titans
There are two unbeaten teams in the WSFL. Everyone knows that one of those teams is the Sheboygan County Rebels. The other is a team that used to be the whipping boy of the league. In three short years the Kettle Moraine Titans went from laughing stock of the Wisconsin State Football League to one of the top tier teams. How did they do it? Hard work, practicing, steroids? Steriods. It has to be steroids.
When it comes to this week's game I think Jeff Deblaey said it best: Big game on Saturday... There is room for only one undefeated team in the league, from this point on we play every down to our full potential and settle for nothing less. With the playoffs right around the corner, I can't get the bitter taste of last year's championship game out of my mouth. It's burning something inside of me that is causing night sweats and fits of rage. It's time to play angry, turn it up a notch and leave no doubt." Hope fully the Rebels are ready to RELEASE THE KRAKEN on the Titans.

Week 7 update - Rebels STILL better than Tjacks
Despite missing 2 starters on the offensive line and losing 5 turnovers the Rebels were able to defeat the M&Ms brand Timberjacks (again) 10-3. Speedster WR Courtney Gatlin had the only touchdown on a deep pass play from QB Corey Roberson.
Like every week, the Rebel dark side smashed the competition, making the seemingly powerful Tjack offense look like a JV squad. Jamil Moore and Josh Bardon stood out as they played the contain men in the Rebels' 4-4 defense. Keeping contain and closing down holes is a difficult job and both excelled at it in the game. I am not sure if this is related or not but Josh and Jamil also like to close down every bar they walk into. Drinking is fun.
The Rebels face the other undefeated team in the Kettle Moraine Titans next week.

Week 7 - Rebels vs Tjacks - Again
The whole WSFL knows about the Rebel defense. They pee in fear a little each time they think about it. This week, however, the offensive nerds will rejoice! Let's take a look at some numbers, shall we? http://www.gowsfl.com/statsRush.php
Both of the Rebel running backs average more per carry than anyone in the league who gets at least 5 carries per game. Skyler Ebbers (Cedar Grove Belgium pride!) has 301 yards on 48 carries for an average of 6.3 yards per carry. Ebbers plays like a monster truck; he'll run your ass over! Jeremy Williams (more commonly known as J Will) has 307 yards on 46 carries for an average of 6.7 yards per rush. J Will is the freak back. He will kill you to the outside, run you over on the inside and make defensive backfields go "palms up" in dismay. Don't forget about Ricky Cannon, though! On 22 carries he has 123 yards (5.6 yards per carry).
How is this possible? How is a hydra like backfield able to exist in a league as powerful as the WSFL? Let's take a look at the group of hogs that makes it all happen. A group of men that, when together, tip the scales at or around 1450 or 1500 lbs depending on the lineup and the size of the most recent meal.
The Rebels have a nearly senile old man leading the oline at center. His name is Jeff DeBlaey but if you ask him it is sometimes Bubbles. To prove his age, Jeff is an original Rebel. Don't let his age fool you, though. He has the pecs of a 25 year old Hulk Hogan. Paired with his firey play, nobody wants to mess with those pectorals or Bubbles.
At right guard is Chris Cox. It is rumored that he is half man and half hulk. With a last name like his you learn to be pretty tough. Chris can routinely be seen 10 yards down field with a defensive tackle in his clutches. Ask some of the Untouchables what it is like to get trapped by him... they might not remember though.
At right tackle is the manbeast, Jared Martin. As a 4 year starter at Lakeland College he knows how to play. It is a regular sight to see defensive ends or outside linebackers begging for forgiveness because of perceived transgressions. Do. Not. Mess. With. This. Man.
At the left guard spot the Rebels have been switching back and forth between two players. One is Kyle Heim and he holds the world record for most wedding invites in a single year. I think the number is at or around 2,000. His technique for blocking is only rivaled by his technique for plumbing. The other guard (who can also play tackle) is Tyler Courtright. Many people "play to the whistle" but Tyler plays to "two seconds AFTER the whistle". Shortly after a play is over it is common to hear "get in the weightroom if you don't like it", "stop crying so much" and "pardon me, good sir, but it appears that you are terrible" coming from Mr. Courtright.
At left tackle is some liberal ninny who drinks soy milk because it is "healthy and doesn't taste that bad". What a joke. He is a Cedar Grove-Belguim Alum so that has to count for something, right?
The Rebels will journey to the great north woods to take on the hated M&Ms brand Timberjacks. This matchup is always a great game.

Week 6 update - Rebels go 6-0
With the Rebels crushing the Untouchables 43-13 there are various dirrections that this post could go. The most obvious is the Jerry Sandusky jokes based around the "untouchable" team name but I have too much class to go there. Another direction would be to make fun of the IFL (Ironman Football League) because two games ago, and without their IFL players, the Untouchables only lost 16-6 to the Rebels. Alas, the real reason that the Rebels dismantled the Untouchables is because they played to their potential for the first time this season (and there is a lot to be corrected and improved upon still). The Rebel defense was in its mid-season form (5 interceptions including two pick 6s and a missed field goal taken 109.9 yards to the house), the return game helped win the field position battle and the Rebel offense was clicking. This is the real Rebels. Watch out WSFL (and IFL players who want to try to cross the Rebels).
The Rebels will have their bye week this upcoming weekend then will face the diabolical M&M Timberjacks.

Week 6 - Rebels vs Untouchables II
Way back in week four the Rebels defeated the Untouchables 16-6. The Untouchables brought a team of nearly 20 to take on the Rebels and they fought valiantly against the onslaught of the Rebel defense. Things have changed however. The team that the Rebels will face this SUNDAY will be slightly different from the Untouchables of August 18th. How, you ask? The Untouchables will have their players from other, lesser, semi-pro leagues this time.
Will the game be like Rocky II where Balboa (the U) steps up to defeat Apollo Creed (the Rebels)?Perhpas it will it be like Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and the dark side (Rebles, duh) will crush the Galactic Republic (Untouchables) and re-create it into the Galactic Empire with John Wagner as Emperor? This blogger says the latter.
