Okay damnit.. I've been busy as hell lately so I haven't been doing any predictions.. but fuck it I need a break!! So here's the abreviated version of how this week breaks down!!
Lion Conference~ There's some good games going on here this week that will definitely be part of the playoffs seeding!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Massawa Redhorns VS. Uganda Silverbacks:
After the D9 loss the Redhorns have put together a nice little 3 game winning streak (probably just to boost their tender egos).. while Uganda has been learning a little bit more about some of the playoff teams in Lion (aka they've lost 2 in a row to solid teams). With Uganda currently sitting in the 5 spot.. and Massawa holding down the 7.. I'm thinking this game is just going to create a new tie breaker scenario (can one of you sticklers to detail get on these soon).. Even though they let me down time and time again.. I'll take the Redhorns in a really close game.. say by 6
Headhunters VS. Ironton:
Yep.. told you it was the abreviated version.. This one is all about Rwanda.. they beat any team that isn't going to be in the playoffs (which I guess includes themselves) and lose to any team that will be making the playoffs (unless you count Elephant Conference teams but that should go without saying).. so that means that the Headhunters will add another notch to their post.. taking down the Tanks by 13
War Machine VS. Somali Pirates:
Last season the Pirates pilaged the War Machine (twice) .. this season the Pirates are battling for a playoff spot while the War Machine will narrowly avoid heading back to AAA.. Lane West makes Cybertron walk the plank.. .Somali by 27
LOL VS. PHP:
Enough said.. LOL gets win #5
Sahara Storm VS. Bamako Black Magic:
I had to give them full name recognition since this is another battle between teams bound for the playoffs... different ends of the playoffs but playoffs none the less!! The Black Magic have lost 4 games (3 to teams listed above them in the rankings) Sahara is above them in the rankings.. can you look in that crystal ball and see the future.. probably not because there's a Storm brewing outside.. Sahara by 17
CWE VS. Nightmares:
STOMP (am I allowed to use that?)! Next please...
Sand Monsters VS. Pretoria Crusaders:
Good news Sand Monsters the Crusaders have lost more games in a row then you currently.. bad news is you're the slump buster! Crusaders by 28
*Zambezi Silverbacks VS. District 9 Prawns
*Hands Down Game of the Week*
Fat Danny is right.. this is definitely a game that deservers some attention!! Both teams come into this game undefeated (13-0 is great).. hell 13-1 is great too!! And when the dust settles one of these teams will be saying just that.. The Silver backs come in averaging over 585 yards of offense per game.. 119.8 points while only giving up 15.1 points.. that's crazy talk!! The Shrimpies.. actually think that's the numbers of a team that's slacking.. they produce over 625 yards per game.. 119.9 points while only giving up 9.2 per game!! Now that all of the stat stars feel glorified.. this one is going to be nothing like that.. both teams have solid Ds.. the Silverbacks have the top passing offense in the conference.. but D9 has the second most hurries and the most sacks in the conference.. that's where this game gets decided.. can Zambezi protect Tex and Superfly? I think they'll do well but like I said in the other thread.. D9 is the team of Lion destiny.. they'll take down the Silverbacks.. by 13
=========================================================================
Elephant Conference:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ABD VS. MML:
Sorry guys not a lot to say here.. I think the Mountain Lions are the most improved team in Elephant.. but unfortunately that won't even get them into the playoffs.. and whether everybody likes it or not ABD and Vegas are here for another season.. MML by 14
Breakers VS. Rhodesia Ratels:
The Ratels are going to end up with a home playoff game.. and the Breakers are going to end up at home watching the playoff games.. Ratels win this one going away!!
SoA VS. Uganda Mounties:
Way to represent APL Uganda.. now time for you to get out of the Sons way as we look at playoff seeding..
Somalia Warlords VS. Kickin Djibouti:
Warlords are on their way out.. and Kickin better figure out what went wrong this season so they can climb back into the playoff chaos next season.. Kickin by 28
S3 VS. The Predators:
Could the Predators really end up without a home playoff game? Yes.. they could.. but this game won't be the reason why.. S3 better brace for impact (better then Brian Bosworth ever did) because Bo Jackson and The Preds like to run the score up!!
Swaziland VS. MaRAWK!!o:
Swazi's defense is for real!! Now this will be a good time to see how far the Evil Aces have come with trying to figure out their offense.. don't get me wrong, this one won't even be close!!
Kiev Dynamos VS. Carthage Mad Clash:
Good news of the Dynamos is they had a one game break to regain their composure.. bad news is that's like getting a standing eight count early in the first round.. knowing that the heavyweight champ is standing across the ring.. the Dynamos continue their fall back to reality (unless they have a great 4th quarter offense).. just kidding Clash roll...
Pirgos Warlords VS. Nairobi Warthogs:
This is a big game for both teams.. The Warthogs are back to running full speed after their little two game stumble.. and the Warlords are in the middle of a 2 game losing streak.. if they don't fix things soon... they'll be sitting with a 7 or 8 seed!! Unfortunately this is a tough game to fix things.. the Warthogs offense is sick... I'd say Nairobi's defense slows down the Pirgos running game enough to get their Flash & Dash offense rolling.. Warthogs by 17
