The big week has arrived for EEA4 as the two remaining unbeatens face off and finally determine who deserves the number one seed in Zeta Conference. The forum will never be the same after this one.
First off, let's take a look at Alpha Conference:
Warsaw GoW vs Black Sea: The Gods look to stay atop their perch and squash the Rebels from on high. Warsaw shouldn't have much trouble from here to the playoffs.
Vilnius vs St. Petersburg: A battle of the pack hunters, with the Velociraptors and Piranhas challenging each other to see who can get all of the meat off of a cow quicker. Vilnius wins with sheer brute force.
Tallinn vs Yugoslavian: The Roid Pushers have been pumping the needle furiously in anticipation of the Nightmare, but the drugs keep making them too enraged to play. I think I saw a player tackle a coach in one of their recent games. Tallinn passes their piss test with ease.
Vorkuta vs Saratov: The Blaze will need a lot of help to get into the playoffs, and the Yellowhammers aren't going to give it to them. Vorkuta takes this one easily while preparing for next game against the Niners.
P-burg vs Sioux City: The Bandits haven't had any luck against the better teams. P-burg has made some big signings over the course of the season that will get some much needed practice time against Sioux City.
Pecs of Steel vs Warsaw Stampede: With 5 losses in the past seven games, the Pecs have seen their season fall apart a bit before their eyes. They can make up a little lost ground against the Stampede.
Skopje vs Bayside: The couch potato snooze fest of the week features the Kardinals and the Tigers for your dreaming pleasure. Let your subconscious mind enjoy this one, you won't want to be awake for it.
Alpha Conference Game of the Week - Stalingrad vs Portland: The Niners are feeling pretty good about themselves after their scrimmage success against the Butchers. Expect them not to be fooled a second time by a run-heavy game plan. Stalingrad will still try to pound the ball with their three stud backs, and QB Manny Ribera is an accurate passer who protects the ball well. The Niners will come out tough and try to reclaim their forum bragging rights, but the Ironmen will prevail and hang onto their second seed.
Zeta Conference:
South City vs Sicilia: Not much to talk about in this game as the Chiefs will roll over the Warriors with ease. South City will be chomping at the bit, waiting for their turn against the Offtopics.
Warsaw vs Edinburgh: The Wolfpack coaches will have a hard time keeping the players focused on the game, and not watching the Butchers play Secretville on little tvs they have stashed in their helmets. Warsaw will have plenty of fun beating up on the War-pipers before traveling to Bratislava for their next game.
Italy vs Dresden: The Doomsday go to Italy to try to bolster their position for the playoffs. With an easy road ahead, Dresden will want to come up big in this final real challenge of the regular season, but the Guardians will be too much for them. Italy needs this win too much to lose.
Berlin vs Nizhny: The Crusaders won't have a problem against the Vetz. Only the Chiefs remain for Berlin as a potential defeat, so the Crusaders will likely take opportunities like these to try new plays before the postseason.
Sooner vs Gateshead: The Gargoyles look to play spoiler for the Syndicate, and have a good chance at handing Sooner a loss. Sooner has little to worry about in the long run, as Edinburgh has no chance of winning any of the next four games, so the Syndicate should still hang on and make it to the playoffs.
Chernobyl vs Gothenburg, Dayton vs Southeast: Two snoozer games for the guy with Sunday Ticket and a DVR that just has to watch every game no matter what. To save him some time, Chernobyl will win, and Dayton will win.
Zeta Conference Game of the Week and EEA4 Game of the Year (regular season of course) - Bratislava vs Secretville: The big matchup has finally arrived, and all of the game planning and scheming will finally come to fruition for the Offtopics and Butchers. These two teams are very evenly matched personnel-wise, with very few exploitable weaknesses. This game will go to the wire, as both defenses will make it very difficult to move the ball consistently. Secretville's Bullrush Nomark will try to wear down the Bratislava defense, while the two-headed rushing monster of Elminhelm Randoake and rob roberts runnerover try to tag team the Offtopics D. The game will be decided by the quarterback who has the best success in the air, Secretville's Armchair McCreedy or Bratislava's Kaiser Wilhelm II. Both teams will be fighting for bragging rights and the chance at home field throughout the playoffs, so expect this to be a brutal game of monster hits and big plays. In the end, Bratislava will come out the victor. What, you didn't think I was gonna say Secretville would win, did you? Go Butchers!
