Brian Umstead News Today

Weird week of AFL football. The road team won seven of nine games. The last winless team beat a previously unbeaten. Chicago, Orlando and San Jose all overcame 14-0 deficits against former af2 teams to win. Four winners failed to reach 50 points. The last two ArenaBowl champs are both 1-4. And Rod Windsor's back!

Kicker Brian Umstead topped off a mixed performance by converting the game winning field goal from the 23 yard line as the clock went to zero. The final score of 45-42 gives the Command their first two game winning streak.

Week Eleven featured all four division leaders winning, a rather boring rematch of last year's ArenaBowl, the road team winning four of seven games as well as San Jose & Georgia losing for the third straight time to drop to .500. This week's edition of Breaking it Down has recaps, ramblings, history and some other stuff. Enjoy!

It has been five games since the Kansas City Command scored at least 50 points. Three were losses. Saturday night, at the Sprint Center, newly promoted quarterback Stephen Wasil led the Command back to the 50 point plateau. The result was an exciting 50-41 victory over the visiting Cleveland Gladiators.

The Kansas City Command played 60 minutes of intense action Friday night. That only earned them a tie. They needed one more touchdown in overtime and a spirited defensive effort on the Jacksonville Sharks final extra point attempt to secure this win, 49-48
