Yeah, now that there are only 4 of ya'll, I'll start talking about the East because you 4 might actually matter and I've paid a bit of attention to you the rest of this season as well. Also this way, I've only got a 25% chance for my cursed pick to be my own game.
Toronto Thunder vs. Thunder Bay Marauders: I've liked the Thunder since the first game of this season. In progressive offseason games against my Vikings they've gone from getting their asses whooped to becoming nearly competitive. They've also done nothing but get better all season.
Prediction: Toronto Thunder by 14.
Black River Rats vs. Windsor Warhammers: The Warhammers looked really really impressive in their game last week. However, they looked pretty anemic against the Brr (which it was 17 degrees in FLORIDA last night..I live down here for a fucking reason and that is not it....brrr) the weak before.
Prediction: Riverrodents by 7.
Manitoba Maulers vs. North Bay Drift: The last time these teams played the Maulers gained more yards, had less penalties, had more sacks, punted less often, and lost. North Bay is gonna bring out everything they can to win again, and I'd love to see it happen.
Prediction: NBD by 7
Vancouver Vikings vs. Cincinnati Cardinals: After an AI mistake kept the Cards from taking a chance on 4th to tie up the game, I'm sure they won't be making the same sort of mistake again. I think this game is going to come down to who can get the ball in the endzone rather than kicking it.
Prediction: Vikings by 7.
I've got nothing but love and respect for all the teams who have made it this far, good luck to all!
