I'll try and do this each week. May start skipping Human vs CPU games though, definitely not doing CPU vs. CPU. I'll also preface by saying I just did basic scouting, nothing real in-depth for this so don't cry if I didn't pick your team. Anyways, lets get to it, right!

Let me know if you guys enjoy these and I should do them each week or not. Not going to waste my time if no one is reading them. ^^;

Marvelous Madmen vs. One Eye'd Pirates - Madmen still running the asylum it seems as they encounter another CPU team. If this one is within 100 points it will be a shock.
Pick: Marvelous Madmen

JcJ's Smurfin EQ Fund vs. GLB Headhunters - Hard to really judge Smurfin so far but I see some signs of life. See a few CPU's mixed in with some real agents but just squeaked by some CPU teams. Looks like the name fits this one, just some extra cash for them for lvl 13.
Pick: GLB

Dallas FOB vs. Lismore Limpers - Limpers seemed to have healed nicely and are at full stride. They've put up a lot of points vs CPU teams so far so we'll see how they fair against a semi-human owned team. If Dallas expects to win this one they need variety. Having just scouted them I must say it was a yawnfest watching their gameplan. Mix it up FOB and you may have a chance, though not to much of one either way.
Pick: Lismore

Easy Eagles vs. The U Crew - Well Eagles seem like a solid team so far, silencing the Camaro's perfect season the 2nd game of the season... This one is just a yawner. Pad those stats boys!
Pick: Eagles

California Raiders vs. Lima Llamas - Yet another chance for the Raiders to pillage a poor CPU team. Looks like they already have some boosters too just in case the Llamas do show any signs of life. Don't expect this one any closer then any other CPU borefest.
Pick: Raiders

Chevy Camaros vs. Arkansas Hogz - Yep that's right, another Human vs CPU match-up. Camaros perfect season ended early but still should find an easy road to playoffs with a solid team carried by their stud runners(yes pun intended). Stat padder, have at em boys!
Pick: Camaros

New England Knock Outs vs. Michagin State Spartans - Well Spartans have 1 inactive human agent, 7 for NE. 7>1?!? Sounds good in the CPU battle.
Pick: New England

Houston Rocket vs. Megalodon Pups - CPU's... NEXT!!

Manhattan Punishers vs. Boston Pee Wee Party - Oh my its 2 real teams actually playing each other. Manhattan looks like they have a pretty decent team setup so far, even have some early boosters. Boston on the other hand have a mostly human roster with a few cpu's sprinkled here and there, but only 40 total.. Sorry Boston but don't think you'll be doing much partying after this one.
Pick: Manhattan

The Autobots vs. Jacksonville Royal Crowns - Looks like the Autobots are a decent team by Copper league standards. Put up some decent numbers, no wins really stand out though. Also see they ran into SBWL and are still licking the wounds from that one. crowns on the other hand are basically a cpu team with a human mixed in for good measure, but its not enough.
Pick: Transformers

Bay Area Lil Bastards vs. Tennesse(e) Crabs - Bay Area looks like they're running on a lean roster, but atleast its filled with humans. Crabs seem like they have a good roster, but can't seem to catch the one thing they may actually want, wins. Don't know if its poor planning or poor builds but either way, going to go with the little light Bay Area on this one.
Pick: Bay Area

Smyrna Creed vs. Arizona State Cardinals - So.. Creed has one of the leading rushing QB's in the league so far, but some how found a way to lose to a CPU team week 1. Really guys?!? Hoping they just didn't gameplan on the D side because that CPU team put up more yards then they did that game. Arizona on the other hand is one of the few teams to actually play all human teams so far, well kind of counting Crowns as human, and are at 1-2. Cardinals my have a chance if they keep Smyrna running game in check. If Lil E QB gets 100+ yards its probably going to be a blowout. If they can limit the run then they may pull it out, but it will be very close if they do win. Just don't see the Cardinals putting together the solid D needed to do this though, sorry.
Pick: Smyrna

Spaniard Linces vs. Scranton Michael Scott Paper - Man these CPU teams sure have some long names. Don't think the tedious name will help the poor CPU avoid a whooping though. Enjoy the off week Linces.
Pick: Linces

We Suck vs. Fortunate Retards - Well we have a CPU owned team with some humans on it against the GM heavy helmet wearers. Fortunate is nothing special though, coming off a loss to Boston but they are against the CPU so this "should" be a gimme.
Pick: The Short Busers

Pee Wee Machine vs. Hashiratani Deers - Semi-CPU vs CPU. Guessing the slight advantage would go to PW but guess we'll see.
Pick: Machine

Pistolvania vs. Louisville - CPU's blah. Going by names, I'd say Supreme > Pistols?!? Either way doesn't matter.
Pick: Supreme

Better than my rankings and we're out for revenge. As the QB, I'm going to go Tim Tebow and tell ya'll that this will be our last loss, and we're stepping*,it up. Be ready for a Press Conference.

LOL nice enasty. I expect more from you guys! You may not run the rest of the table but you'll definitely be a good team and in play-offs.

Yeah. Hopefully we beat the GLB Headhunters. If we beat ya'll, then it made my season.

LOL What is the L10 that you speak of? What is so special about their people?

Yeah, I think every league had their few "top" teams. I know in 22 we had some tough competition. L10 was the same as almost any other league in general, minus the cupcake leagues with 2-3 human teams and the rest CPU.

League 10 was as tough as they come top to bottom. They may have only had1 team in the top 3 or 4, but they had a ton in the top 15-20. I think you'll see a handful or more of League 10 teams in Gold next season. That league was no joke come playoffs, and there was always an upset threat. Heck, our alumni tourney is full of stupid matchups.

Dude, I was trying to set up the brackets so I had an easy match-up and the best I got was DTMCF LOL. And I want to beat a real L10 team, at least once. We had Westside, Crib, Mexico City, DTMCF, Deep South, Arizona, DI (late-season), and that Patamcoya team that went under. Plus, my team gave some guys a run for their money.

Yeah, Crib and Westside had a little easier road during the regular season, but the league was tough. You didn't even list the L10 Gold club -- Coastal Empire Pirates. That alumni bracket is just stupid. Who in the world wants a first round matchup against a team like...Coastal, Crib, Westside, Arizona, Dharma, DTMCF, or Deep South???

Thanks, and we are nothing special, but we are fortunate, so that would make you special, lol!

Seriously, thanks for doing this, good read, and appreciated! -Naka

There are so many teams, I didn't even remember them hah. The only one I'd want to give a shot at is Arizona or Deep South, partly because those are the only teams I came within 40 points of

Most of my wording is a play on words Bootnaka. Team name = Retards and so by calling you not that special was actually me trying to say you're not retards and actually decent team in league. Sorry for any misunderstanding. ^^;
