(N.M.I) Pagan Fire Eaters vs. Gold Coast Michelin Men
The week gets off to a good start with this game. My boys at GCMM are running pretty smoothly but I know the Pagan Fire Eaters better than they know me (probably) and I can tell you they are a very well coached team. I have a feeling tonight's game is going to expose my team for what it is. Whether that will show us to be a very good team is up in the air. We will find out a lot about these two teams in this game. I am torn but I guess I'll just be a homer and go with the Michelin Men. GCMM by 13
Fiji Ventures vs. Bikini Island Atomic Surfers
BIAS has a great set up in front of them. They need wins and a signature W to go along with them. They have their win tonight in Fiji and will get the chance to knock off the top team next week so long as GCMM can get past N.M.I.. I like the Surfers chances against my Michelin Men next week so watch out for this win being the turning point for BIAS's season. Bikini Island by 34
Telstar Rebels vs. So Cal BDC
Telstar can't do much more slipping or they are going to put themselves too far out of the postseason picture to get a slot when the time comes. So Cal comes into this game looking like most teams worst nightmare. I just don't see many weaknesses and Telstar is probably going to need to have found a couple. We will see if they see anything that I don't but I guess only time will tell. BDC by 28
USB Rough Riders vs. Tasmania Tigers
USB cruises for the first time in a while. RR by a bunch
Molokai Lavastorm vs. Christchurch Fighting Maori
The rich just keep getting richer. Molokai is going to have to wait a couple of season to get redemption after this beating. Maori by 109
Guam Chamoros Rising Sun Devils vs. Liechtenstein Lycans
One of these teams is probably for real and while they are both good the loser of this one may end up waiting another season before contending in OPL. Guam can lose this game and bounce back but this would be a loss that could really come back to haunt them. It should be a great game so everyone needs to come take a look here later. Guam by 9
Gold Coast Vipers vs. Phoenix Eagles
This could either be a good game or a blowout. If it's a good game the Eagles are playing well. If it's a blowout then they aren't. I expect it to be somewhere in between a decisive win and a shellacking. GCV by 27
Eastern European Alliance vs. Taylor Bulldogs
Taylor proved me wrong last week and had EEA played a little better against the Maori the Bulldogs would get a chance to prove me wrong again. This will not be the case as the Alliance's loss to Christchurch may have exposed to much for a team like Taylor not to take advantage of. EEA can win this game but I expect the Bulldogs to take care of business again and possibly make a second half of the season push for a playoff spot. It's not probable that they will parlay this into a postseason bid but this would be a great game to start the ball rolling. Taylor by 10
