Cliff Barendsen torched his opponents and sent them packing after their short lived tenure at the top of the league standings with yet another incredible performance.

		<description><![CDATA[Just about every underdog team in tonight's matchups made sure to make their opponents take it on the chin as the league standings tightened up in the second half of the Fall 2012 season.  Despite only three teams changing places, leads over other teams have been significantly diminished as only ten games separate all eight teams in the league.  With 28 games still left to win, it's honestly anyone's title to take.Will your favorite team make the most of these next seven weeks?  ]]></description>

Huge games and series were recorded across the board in what was probably the highest scoring midway point of any season in league history.  Even Hall of Famer Scott "Scooter J" Murdock shot his first 600+ series.  What in the hell are they putting in the beer on Tuesday nights?!?Ready to get the full recap?
