I have turned this week’s picks over to Carl Spackler:
Pingree Grove Pits at Ho Chi Minh Hookers (+6)
Last week:
Pingree Grove Pits vs. AFEF Hooligans 84-0
Cambodia Mountain Men vs. Ho Chi Minh Hookers 27-16
Jmarter: Carl, what do you think of the Hookers/Pits matchup?
Carl: “Oh Mrs. Crane, you're a little monkey woman. Yeah, you're lean, mean, and I bet you're not too far in between are ya. How'd you like to wrap your spikes around my...”
Jmarter: Um, how about a pick Carl?
Carl: Hookers by 28.
Pontianak Firebirds at Mongolian Horde (+3)
Last week:
Pontianak Firebirds vs. Phuket Water Dragons 18-17
Salford Storm vs. Mongolian Horde 3-26
Jmarter: The Firebirds, coming off a big win, travel to the league leader Horde. Thoughts?
Carl: “I smell varmint poontang. And the only good varmint poontang is dead varmint poontang, I think.”
Jmarter: Pick?
Carl: Horde by 28.
Krungthep Garudas (+15) at AFEF Hooligans
Last week:
Krungthep Garudas vs. Manila Cyberballers 65-14
Pingree Grove Pits vs. AFEF Hooligans 84-0
Jmarter: This one looks like a mismatch on paper don’t you think?
Carl: “In the immortal words of Jean Paul Sartre, 'Au revoir, gopher'.” Garudas by 200.
Hiroshima Radiation at Algeria Addiction (+24)
Last week:
Hiroshima Radiation vs. Tibet Psychonauts 0-205
Padang Lightning CPU vs. Algeria Addiction 3-189
Jmarter: Looks like another mismatch, …
Carl: “License to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. Man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet Cong - Varmint Cong. So you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower. And that's all she wrote.” Addiction by 125.
Cambodia Mountain Men (+6) at Phuket Water Dragons
Last week:
Cambodia Mountain Men vs. Ho Chi Minh Hookers 27-16
Pontianak Firebirds vs. Phuket Water Dragons 18-17
Jmarter: Hey Carl, what about those 7-1 Mountain Men?
Carl: “Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac... It's in the hole! It's in the hole! It's in the hole!”
Jmarter: Your pick?
Carl: Sorry about that, Mountain Men by 14.
Salford Storm (+9) at Columbus Black Knights
Last week:
Salford Storm vs. Mongolian Horde 3-26
Mount Fiji Dogs vs. Columbus Black Knights CPU 27-34
Jmarter: Storm vs. Knights? How you going to pick this one?
Carl: “I have to laugh, because I've outsmarted even myself. My enemy, my foe, is an animal. In order to conquer the animal, I have to learn to think like an animal. And, whenever possible, to look like one. I've gotta get inside this guy's pelt and crawl around for a few days.” Storm by 28.
Padang Lightning (even) at Manila Cyberballers
Last week:
Padang Lightning CPU vs. Algeria Addiction 3-189
Krungthep Garudas vs. Manila Cyberballers 65-14
Jmarter: Just a couple more games Carl, don’t slack off just yet.
Carl: “I'll slack you off, you fuzzy little foreigner.”
Jmarter: Now that was uncalled for, how about a pick?
Carl: Manila by 7.
