Brandon Wogomon breaks into the open field but Chicago would eventually fall to the Mayhem 19-14.

Former Rock River Raptor all purpose player Brandon Wogomon was not enough for the Cardinals as Marion rolled into Villa Park and created a bit too much Mayhem for Chicago inside the friendly confines of the Odeum.  While you will not find too many Chicago highlights please don't forget to checkout these football action photos from this Continental Indoor Football League tilt.

Calvin Thomas of the Wisconsin Wolfpack flashes a big smile and the number one sign during CIFL game action in Madison.

Wisconsin team photographer for part of the 2010 Wisconsin Wolfpack season shoots the CIFL show.

Razor holds the ball too long and ends up out for the season with a busted collar bone on this Silverback sack for a  safety.

Super action photos from this CIFL game are now located in the 2010 CIFL Game Action Galleries. Wisconsin QB  Razor R. was knocked out of this April 04, 2010 game early, but the Wolfpack would hang ion to win this very close CIFL tilt in Madison, Wisconsin anyway. Thousands and thousands of football action photos can be accessed from the main gallery page and this Miami Valley vs. Wisconsin gallery is located here.

Russ Michna tossed a CIFL record nine touchdown passes on the Rock River Raptors defense.

Brandon Wogomon's Herculean effort was not enough as the Rock River defense did not stop the Michna led attack from scoring one time on the night. Patrick Jackson did not make it to Rockford  on a night the Raptors defense clearly needed help. This loss is a tough loss for the Raptors to swallow as Rock River is on the verge of missing the playoffs for the first time in a long time. This gallery is in-progress and several dozen more photos will be added to it in the next couple of days.

Lets get fired up! The 2010 Pepsi Max Wild Things Dancers were a sexy as ever when the Marion Mayhem traveled to Madison to do battle with Jordan Kopac's Wisconsin Wolfpack CIFL indoor football team in 2010!

Thanks again for visiting and check back often as over the next few weeks the 2010 game action and dance galleries will be filled lots of great photos and images!

Brian 'Razor' Ryczkowski will need to play almost mistake free football tonight if the raptors are to upset the Chicago Slaughter at home in the MetroCentre.

Former Chicago Slaughter running back J.R. Taylor will be expected to carry the load for the Raptors in an effort to keep Russ Michna's potent, quick strike, Chicago offense off of the football field.

It will be interesting to see if Bobby Miller takes over the full time kicking duties from Jim Terry. The Raptors will need all the help they can get from the kicking game if they are to upset the Chicago Slaughter.

The Raptors hope that Bryce Stephens II and company can come up with some big catches for the Raptors.

The Raptors are 4-1 since Billy Cook's return as defensive coordinator, and tonight the Raptors will face their biggest test of the season when Mongo McMichael's undefeated Chicago Slaughter roll into town.

The best receiver in the league, Donovan Morgan, will not be in action for the Slaughter tonight due to injury.

Dontrell 'Action' Jackson is plenty capable of putting scores on the board for the Chicago Slaughter.

Big Play Reggie Gray is tearing the CIFL up this season and the Raptors will need to watch out for his long kick returns, his onside kick recovery prowess, and his fantastic abilities at wide receiver.

If the Raptors can run the ball on the Slaughter the Raptors should be able to make a decent run at being the first team to beat the Slaughter this season.

The Raptors can not afford to give up any onside kicks to Chris Nendick and Reggie Gray.

If Chicago has an Achilles heel it may be Keith Hac's Chicago Slaughter defense...If the Raptors are to win tonight they will need to take full advantage of the Chicago Slaughter defensive schemes.

Russ Michna is the CIFL's top quarterback, and if the Raptors can not at least slow him down then the Raptors playoff hopes will be all but dashed. This really is a must win game for Rock River if they are to have a serious shot at the CIFL playoffs. If Michna puts six or seven touchdown on Cook's defense it will be very tough for Rock River's clock control offense to match. This game should feel like a playoff game for the Raptors and I am expecting some physical play on MetroCentre floor tonight. If Billy's defense, the Rock River special
teams, and the Razor play well then Rock River River should have a shot at the upset in this one. That said, the Raptors knocked the Slaughter from the CIFL playoffs last season so I am almost certain Chicago will be looking to do all they can to settle an old score.

CIFL Image Update:

CIFLPhotos.com has been closed permanently while CIFLPIx.com remains open. The original CIFLPhotos.com blog and gallery site had some great content for sure - but due to persistent latency issues and the existence of the speedy CIFLPix.com and RockRiverFootball.com sites I have decided to close the CIFLPhotos.com site forever. It won't be back again...it's content has been removed from the servers.
