Shawnee Whiskey Tango vs. Tripoli Terror - Defensive MVP vs SWT means "Tripoli Trouble" will be the headline in the SWT paper tomorrow. SWT plays tough but gives up one of those 31 pt quarters at some point in the game. Terror 52-17

Ethiopia Famine vs. Dakar Lightning: Most exciting game of the day. Lighting strikes setting fire to the Famine's crops and the whole thing goes up like SoCal. Lightning 35-31.


E'ci FAlkruns vs. The Chad OchoCinco: Angry E'ci recovers from an AI error and still kicks an 85 yard FG to eek out a beatdown on the 8-5's. Even if they are my favorite team whose name does not rhyme with MaRAWK!!o. 85-0

Iowa Fortress vs. Cairo scorpions: The real challenge here is can Iowa peg the scoreboard. Cairo is putting a team together, but this isn't a fair fight. Cairo brings a stinger to a cannon fight: Iowa big 150-12

Springfield Isotopes vs. Happy Hour: Happy Hour isn't going to want this one to end. Cheap drinks all night: HH .62 BAC, Isotopes -3e.

Mozambique Chiefs CPU vs. MaRAWK!! o: Can the RAWK put 255 on the board? Odds are no, but the Chiefs will be demoted to squaws by the time the clock reads 0:00: MaRAWK!!o 252, Squaws nil in a heartbreaker.

New World Order vs. Free For All Elite: Scott Hall comes out late, takes a survey and puts one of the best finishing move in sports entertainment history on FFA. FFA candlelight vigil/victory thread silenced for another day. NWO gets a 3 count oddly right before a normal commercial break to end the match.

Cairo Cougars vs. Khodumodumo's Revenge: Cairo is better than expected, but chemistry is too low to get it done right now. Khodumodumo gets a big lead early, then throws the ball to run out the clock. Revenge wins 65-17.

No close games apparently. Even less research involved.

I think Tripoli will get more then 52 points but that is just me. We have scored an average of 85 points in the past 4 games, so I may be being modest... Good luck to SWT and the rest teams today..

I find it funny how our league has become way less competitive after the league reorganization which was supposed to improve competition. I think the league caps were not very well though out by Bort. He should have kept all the capped teams in leagues seperate from non-capped teams. I know I would be pretty pissed if I was the owner of a capped team and got moved up to a league wth a bunch of teams that outlevel me by 8+

Or Bort created it this so it would work in about 2 seasons.. Most likely, the top 5 teams may leave this league after the season. Leaving the new teams here in the conference. It may be a work in progress, he is cleansing the system so to speak

I think some of the new teams just need time to adjust. Happy Hour signed two new backups today and we are working on our bench. By next season, some of the new teams will be making some legit noise.

I totally agree. the teams that haven't been promoted out are pretty much in the same situation you guys are in and at least one of the teams that got promoted is in the same situation.

Personally I think the promotions should be based on season standings rather than playoff results because that is a better reflection of how good your team is (normally). That way you are promoted because you won 14 of 16 games, not because your Cb deflected a pass and your LB returned it for a TD. But that isn't a really big concern of mine.

I believe that of the 5 teams that outlevel folks, one or two will be here next season and I don't think it is going to be as easy to beat the 11 new guys.

However, as it is we essentially have a 5 team conference to get promoted and so that is how the playoffs should work out and that 4/5 game is going to be nerve-wracking.

However, not as bad as the 1/2/3 seed that gets beat in the first round. Then you get to come back here while the team that beats you gets to do the build/recruiting thing all over again next season trying to claw into the playoffs.

That is also why The Revenge is in such a great position. If only 5 teams really can get the #1 seed, then you probably only need to win those four games. They are 2-0 so far with wins against (imo) the #1 and #3 teams so far.

In summary:
New guys: Keep up the good work
Old guys: Get the fuck out of here while you can!!!!
