The Hartford Mavericks have moved to Portland Maine, where they will play in a new stadium wearing new team colors. Last year the Mavericks won their division with a 7 -7 record and lost in the league championship after upsetting the Rage in the semi-finals. When asked about the move to Portland, Coach/Owner AGerm replied, "Portland is a great city. We look forward to playing some great football for our new fans. Our goal is to make it back to the big game and hopefully bring a trophy home to Portland. We will have to work hard but we are up for the challenge."
Week 1's Bold Predictions Go Bold or Go Home!
Trinity Titans at San Jose Pit Bulls ~ The Titans are heavily favored to take the bite out of the Pitbulls.
Houston Roofers at Oklahoma Green Machines ~ The Green Machine will win their home opener running rough shod over the Roofers.
Jamestown Red Raiders at Chi Town Chupacabras ~ The Red Raiders drew the short stick having to play the defending champs in week 1. Tough luck Red Raiders
Minnesota Turtles at Washington Wildcats ~ The Wildcats were 10 - 4 last season. They are kicking off the season versus a CPU team and better win this one too.
Portland Mainiacs at Boston Blizzard ~ This has the makings of a defensive slobber-knocker. It should come down to any of the following...home field advantage, coaching or the dreaded RNG
The GOTW is New Orleans Knuckleheads at Guildford Raiders
We give the edge to the Raiders passing attack over a weaker Knucklehead pass defense.

Week 1 Post Game Report
The Trinity Titans trampled the San Jose Pit Bulls 63 - 0. Trinity QB Stuart Garland completed 67% of his passes for 543 yards and 7 touchdowns. Garland hit 4 different receivers in the end zone.
Trinity HB Nigel Quake punched it in for 2 touchdowns on the ground. Linebacker Vincent Womack lead the Titan defense with 4.5 sacks. The Titan D held the pitiful Pit Bulls to 110 total yards. (22 on the ground and 88 in the air) Next week 1 - 0 Trinity plays 1 - 0 0klahoma in a key divisional matchup and the Pit Bulls play against the 0 - 1 Roofers.
The Oklahoma Green Machines marched over the Houston Roofers 23 - 0. Oklahoma QB Benjamin MacMiller completed 48% of his passes for 1 touchdown and ran for 1. The Green Machines had 3 100 yards rushers (Benjamin MacMiller, Pepper Joe and Jamal Lewis) DE Jamison Isaacs led the Green Machine defense with 4.5 sacks, 2 hurries and a forced fumble. The Green Machine defense held the Roofers to 198 yards. (43 rushing, 155 passing) The 1 - 0 Green Machines go to 1 - 0 Trinity for a key divisional match up. The Roofers go to San Jose for a divisional game that they need to win.
The New Orleans Knuckleheads beat the Guildford Raiders 13 - 6. Guildford could not run the ball on the Knuckleheads. The Raiders had -5 yards on 17 runs. The Knuckeheads sacked the Raiders' Quarterbacks 11 times taking pressure off of the their secondary and making this sports writer eat some crow pie. One touchdown on the ground from HB Zoomer Zoom and 2 field goals was good enough for the win. Next week the 1 -0 Knuckleheads play the 0-0-1 Blizzard in what looks like another defensive fight. The Raiders face off against the 0-0-1 Portland Maniacs. If the Raiders hope to win they better find some offense.
The Chi Town Chupacabras prevail over the Jamestown Red Raiders 28 -21. This was another great game between 2 top tier teams. Jamestown scored first on a 1 yard touchdown run by HB Power Perfect.

The Red Raiders fought back to tie the game with a touchdown pass from Banner to TE David Bowker. The Chupacabras won the game on Cram's fourth TD pass this time to HB Christian Little. Next week the Chupacabras play the Minnesota Turtles in a joke of a match up. The question is not who will win but by how many points. The Red Raiders have a tougher but winnable match up versus the 1 - 0 Washington Wildcats.
The Washington Wildcats beat the Minnesota Turtles 35 - 0. Wildcat QB Wildcat Yento was the star of the game. He completed 62% of his passes for 169 yards and 3 touchdowns, while running for 248 yards and 2 touchdowns. The Wildcat defense help the Turtles to 73 yards.

GG! Took more chances on the outside runs that hurt us I believe and your pass D shut us down as well. Hopefully we'll get you next time.
