Amsterdam is loco!!

A lot of crazy upsets over there in Alpha! Or at least teams that proved my predictions wrong.
St Petersburg upset the Joe’s!
Amsterdam got all freaky like on the River Bandits!
And………ya’ know what? I should know better then to consider the Wolverines dead and gone. Every time I do, they bite me in the ass. Wildflecken Wolverines upset Valhalla, 44-14! Nice job Coach Ernie and crew!
And sadly, the Bohenia Gryphons have gone CPU. Sorry to see they went the way of the toaster oven. Good luck to you guys.

On a good note, I have yet to be wrong on the Alpha GOW’s, so if you see me pick you in that game, consider it money…………or at least a government bailout you can give to your execs as a bonus.
Zeta on the other hand, I just suck. I mean, I am tied at 2-5 with an online Magic 8 Ball for Pete’s sake!
So if you see me pick against you, you might as well plan the victory party. Apologies to the fav’s.
And Tara “T.L.” Smith, QB for the Black Shirts, I realize now why you haven’t called me, I forgot to give you my number. So here is my #: 867-5309, …for a good time call…………

OK, you know the drill………. let’s do this shit!!



________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

You may or may not agree with them, but this is how I see them.

****ZETA POWER RANKINGS****

LW = Last Week ranking
* = Play Off spot clinched

#1 Macedonia Trojans (10-0) LW 1 - With only three real tests left for the Trojans on the schedule, it looks like they might just go undefeated this season and stay at #1.
But one of those real tests are up next with Cool Runnings waiting for you.
Next opponent: at #4 Cool Runnings (7-3)

#2 Estonia Stoners (9-1) LW 2 - Nine straight wins since that game 1 loss and it looks like there will be no stopping the Stoners until they play the Trojans or Freight Train. So take the slow ride and take it easy until then.
Next opponent: #12 Providence Black Hawks (3-7)

#3 Ukraine Freight Train (8-2) LW 5 - Five straight wins for the Train, but now they begin the tough part of the schedule. 5 of their last 6 games are against .500 or better teams. This is where we will get to see if the Train is for real.
Next opponent: at #6 Istanbul Hellhounds (7-3)

#4 Cool Runnings (7-3) LW 6 - Well here is the big game for Cool Runnings. Win this one and you will stay in the Top 4, lose and…………well if you lose you will still make the playoffs, but you won’t look as cool doing it.
Next opponent: #1 Macedonia Trojans (10-0)

#5 The Gods (7-3) LW 3 - Two automatic wins for you guys are up next for the Gods, but the last two could be trouble. If you Gods want to play at the Playground, you had better find a way to win those last two games.
If not it’s an uber wedgie and Pedro hates wedgies.
Next opponent: #13 Wroclaw Wrecking Crew (2-8)

#6 Istanbul Hellhounds (7-3) LW 4 - Looking at your last six games, you guys will definitely make the playoffs. At what position is the question. You wanna’ move up in the rankings? Well here is your perfect opportunity to. Beat the Train and you will definitely move up.
Next opponent: #3 Ukraine Freight Train (8-2)

#7 Vancouver Jive Turkeys (6-4) LW 7 - Two big wins in a row keeps the J.T.’s from falling out of the race. Looking at the remaining schedule there are two for sure wins, but you still have your work cut out for you with the other 4.
Time for some funky inspiration:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qe1ScoePqVA
Next opponent: at #10 Banja Luka Blackshirts (5-5)

#8 Banja Luka Boracs (6-4) LW 8 - It comes down to this game to see who is king of Banja Luka! You guys need this one to claim rights and keep your playoff spot. A lot is riding on this one game.
Next opponent: at #9 Banja Luka Funky Bunch (5-5)

#9 Banja Luka Funky Bunch (5-5) LW 9 - Well if it weren’t for some really close losses, you guys would prolly have been a top 4 team. But now you guys are fighting for your playoff lives. It’s a tough road ahead, so good luck.
Next opponent: #8 Banja Luka Boracs (6-4)

#10 Banja Luka Blackshirts (5-5) LW 10 - This next game is a biggie for you guys. Looking at the remaining schedule there are three pretty much for sure wins. But to make the playoffs you will have to pull off some upsets like you did with the Gods.
Good luck.
Next opponent: #7 Vancouver Jive Turkeys (6-4)

#11 Renegades of Funk (3-7) LW 11 - Please, please, [please don’t let me down ROF! Last season you lost to a CPU team, please don’t do it this time!
Next opponent: at #16 St. Petersburg Destroyers (0-10)

#12 Providence Black Hawks (3-7) LW 12 - I am going to predict a 5-11 record for you guys, by looking at the rest of your schedule. These next two games are killers and should effectively end your season. But don’t get sad, if you do lose these next two you can join the Hot Pic Club, yay!
Next opponent: at #2 Estonia Stoners (9-1)

#13 Wroclaw Wrecking Crew (2-8) LW 13 - With 6 games left, even if you won every game, it is very hard to sneak into the playoffs at 8-8. But you can always give it a try starting here with the Gods up next.
Next opponent: at #5 The Gods (7-3)

#14 WMD Pale Riders (1-9) LW 14 - Welcome to the Hot Pic Club, WMD. You can take it easy from here on out. Get to work on next season and enjoy the hot pics. 
http://www.bullz-eye.com/gnd/2001/07heidi/Heidi-32.jpg
Next opponent: #15 Luzitian Dynasty (0-10)

#15 Luzitian Dynasty (0-10) LW 15 - Da’nasty gets nasty with a hot pic.
http://www.bullz-eye.com/gnd/2001/11trina/Trina-10.jpg
Next opponent: at #14 WMD Pale Riders (1-9)

#16 St. Petersburg Destroyers (0-10) LW 16 - 0-10, 0-10, here’s a pic for you again!
http://www.sexyandfunny.com/_oddity_media/img_disp/img47063fa4f2a1f.jpg
Next opponent: #11 Renegades of Funk (3-7)

Week 2: 5-3, Week 3: 7-1, Week 4: 5-3, Week 5: 7-1, Week 6: 6-2, Week 7: 7-1, Week 10: 8-0
Overall: 45-11
GOW: 2-5
8 Ball GOW: 2-5

#8 Banja Luka Boracs (6-4) at #9 Banja Luka Funky Bunch (5-5) = Banja Luka Funky Bunch - I’m going with the mild upset here. Battle for Banja Luka 3 is on!
Game Rating: 5/6 beers

#3 Ukraine Freight Train (8-2) at #6 Istanbul Hellhounds (7-3) = Ukraine Freight Train - This should be a really good match up. Going to give the Train the benefit of doubt and stick with them for this game.
Game Rating: 6/6 beers

#7 Vancouver Jive Turkeys (6-4) at #10 Banja Luka Blackshirts (5-5) = Vancouver Jive Turkeys - A lot riding on this one. Playoff dreams are what it comes down to for both teams. Going with the J.T.’s.
Game Rating: 5/6 beers

#1 Macedonia Trojans (10-0) at #4 Cool Runnings (7-3) = Macedonia Trojans - Really good match up, but I’m sticking with the Trojans.
Game Rating: 6/6 beers

#12 Providence Black Hawks (3-7) at #2 Estonia Stoners (9-1) = Estonia Stoners - Stoners should win this even all whacked out on the silly weed.

Game Rating: 2/6 beers

Game Rating: 2/6 beers

#11 Renegades of Funk (3-7) at #16 St. Petersburg Destroyers (0-10) = ROF - At least it’s not a loss ROF.
Game Rating: 1/6 beers

*Game Of The Week*
#1 Macedonia Trojans (10-0) at #4 Cool Runnings (7-3) - Even though my GOW picks suck, I think the Trojans will do right by me.
A lot at stake here! Playoff rankings, a W, pride. So let’s send this one back to Thunder Dome!!
Two teams enter! One team leaves!
Whoever wins this one gets the privilege of buying me a beer…..or two…..or three!
Magic 8 Ball says: http://av.vet.ksu.edu/flash/8ball/ = Macedonia Trojans
Question: Will Cool Runnings beat the Trojans?
8 Ball's answer: Outlook not so good

29/48 beers! – Now this is a great group of match ups!
Funky Bunch vs Boracs in Banja Luka Brawl 3!
The GOW!
The Jive Turkeys vs the Blackshirts!
The Freight Train vs the Hell Hounds!
It’s going to be a Saturday morning of family GLB fun and lots and lots of wholesome, nutritious beer!
Let’s do this shit!!



Good luck to all the teams in Zeta Conference!

____________________________________________________________________________


****ALPHA POWER RANKINGS****

LW = Last Week Ranking
* = Play Off spot clinched

#1 Macedonia Diadochi (10-0) LW 1 - No more words! Let’s just get this next game on!
Next opponent: #2 Kazan Golden Horde (9-1)

#2 Kazan Golden Horde (9-1) LW 2 - Ah, ah, ah! No commentary! Shut your trap and bring on the big fight!
Next opponent: at #1 Macedonia Diadochi (10-0)

#3 Gunzenhausen Wolfpack (9-1) LW 3 - One last freebie win for you Wolfpackers and then it’s your turn against the Diadochi.
Use the free time of game 11 wisely.
Next opponent: at #16 Bohemia Gryphons (2-8)

#4 Kiev Pit Bulls (8-2) LW 4 - OK, Pit Bulls. Two more easy games and then we’re putting you guys to the test.
Time to put up or put out in the last 4 games.
But as for now, enjoy the fact you get to play Amsterdam and St Petersburg, both up next.
Next opponent: #12 Amsterdam Hallucinations (3-7)

#5 Valhalla Einherjar (7-3) LW 5 - Well that loss to Wildflecken prolly wasn’t on your list of things to do for this season, hmmm Valhalla?
Well quit your moping around! You still have the Crack, the Horde, the Wolfpack and the Psycho’s left to play!
The first three are all up in a row, so it’s do or die time!
Next opponent: #6 Krakow Plumber's Crack (6-4)

#6 Krakow Plumber's Crack (6-4) LW 6 - Well, Macedonia done unloaded on the Crack, 84-45. But no time to feel sorry for yourselves.
Valhalla is up next and you guys still have yet to secure your invite to the playoffs.
Get to crackin’, Crack!
Next opponent: at #5 Valhalla Einherjar (7-3)

#7 Average Joe's (6-4) LW 7 - OK, Joe’s. You know the Wolverines just went nutso on the Einherjammers, right?
So watchout. It ain’t over till my ex-wife sings.
Next opponent: #9 Wildflecken Wolverines (5-5)

#8 Iron Curtain Psychos (6-4) LW 8 - Wow! Four fairly easy games in a row coming up for you Psycho’s. That will give you guys 10 wins for sure.
But it’s the last two teams on the schedule you need to worry about.
Next opponent: #13 Vienna River Bandits (2-8)

#9 Wildflecken Wolverines (5-5) LW 9 - Geez! Coach Ernie and his scrappy, die hard Wolverines are never out of it when you think they are. But the only teams that have gone crazy on them were the Horde and Diadochi. They have been in every close loss, so you can never really count them out.
Another tough lesson learnt by me.
If you have anything left in that bag of tricks, better use it up with the Joe’s.
Next opponent: at #7 Average Joe's (6-4)

#10 St. Petersburg Royal Guards (4-6) LW 10 - Wtf, Royal Guards?!
You beat the Joe’s, but lose to the River Bandits?!
Which Royal Guards will show up next? Nobody knows.
But they can figure it out in ther Hitmen game, up next.
Next opponent: at #15 Hungarian Hitmen (0-10)

#11 Greece Lightning (3-7) LW 11 - Well at least Bohemia went CPU before you played them. That way you can get an easy win.
Speaking of easy wins…………
Next opponent: at #14 Wallachia Impalers (1-9)

#12 Amsterdam Hallucinations (3-7) LW 14 - Two wins in a row? Nice.
Got anymore of that “loco” saved up?
If so, now’s the time to use it.
Pit Bulls are up next.
Next opponent: at #4 Kiev Pit Bulls (8-2)

#13 Vienna River Bandits (2-8) LW 12 - Well it’s all but official. There is no way to win the last six games and make the playoffs.
Better start thinking about next season.
Next opponent: at #8 Iron Curtain Psychos (6-4)

#14 Wallachia Impalers (1-9) LW 15 - Impale away, Wallachia! Impale the hot chick!
http://www.bullz-eye.com/gnd/2001/11ferrara/Ferrara-01.jpg
Next opponent: #11 Greece Lightning (3-7)

#15 Hungarian Hitmen (0-10) LW 16 - You guys know the drill………
http://www.bullz-eye.com/gnd/2001/11ferrara/Ferrara-04.jpg
Next opponent: #10 St. Petersburg Royal Guards (4-6)

#16 Bohemia Gryphons (2-8) LW 13 - Well sad to see you guys go CPU. But six lucky teams get a chance at an easy victory, so say “thank you”, you six lucky teams (you know who you are!).
A double hot chick pic for you guys. One for joining the Hot Pic Club and one because you went CPU.

#6 Krakow Plumber's Crack (6-4) at #5 Valhalla Einherjar (7-3) = Valhalla Einherjar - Really good matchup. Too bad the Horde and Diadochia a re in the GOW. Going with Valhalla.
Game Rating: 5/6 beers

#9 Wildflecken Wolverines (5-5) at #7 Average Joe's (6-4) = Average Joe’s - Big game for both clubs. Taking the Joe’s.
Game Rating: 4/6 beers

#12 Amsterdam Hallucinations (3-7) at #4 Kiev Pit Bulls (8-2) = Kiev Pit Bulls - Pit Bulls will get win 9.
Game Rating: 2/6 beers

*Game Of The Week*
#2 Kazan Golden Horde (9-1) at #1 Macedonia Diadochi (10-0) - Here it is! The big showdown! #1 vs #2! A Golden Horde vs a Diadochi!
A Golden Horde is a bunch of mad guys dressed up in bling bling.
A Diadochi is Greek for a light chicken gravy.
It’s the Dark side vs the forces of light!
Scothchtape…………….DBerner30 is your father. No, that’s not true. I can’t back that claim up. But after the game is over we will all know who the loser’s daddy is!
Get to it!
Magic 8 Ball says: http://av.vet.ksu.edu/flash/8ball/ = Kazan Golden Horde
Question: Will the Golden Horde beat the Diadochi?
8 Ball's answer: Yes, definitely


24/48 beers! – 24 beers sounds good to me! Wolverines vs Joe’s! Crack vs Valhalla! The GOW! What better way to wake up to a Saturday morning. GLB and beer! The only thing that could possibly make it better is free beer. But set your alarm’s early and get up and have tyour morning coffee so you are awake to enjoy all that beer!
Let’s do this shit!!


Good luck to all the teams in Alpha Conference!
