Sorry for the lay off. I got pretty busy IRL and just didn’t have time to put these together. But I’m back and ready to make some picks. I got some quick ones in for Wk 6, but didn’t post any for Wk 7. I did make some picks at home, but since I didn’t post them I won’t count them toward my total.
Week 5: 14-2
Week 6: 13-3
Last Week: MIA
Overall: 83-13
Week 8 Match-Ups
Western Conference
Ohio State 5-2 vs Wookiee 4-3
I have been pulling for the Wookiees all season and I still feel they are a strong team. Their losses have been to three pretty tough teams. The same can be said for O State though. I see the overgrown Ewoks manning up and pulling out a tough one against the Columbus All-Stars.
Florida 2-5 vs Ty-Isaf 3-4
If T-I lets me down one more time I am through with them. These cheeky monkeys have been letting me down all season. The Stingrays should be an easy catch for them, unless they decide to go all Steve Erwin on take another Man Down!! RIP Crocodile Hunter
Tokyo 6-1 vs Buffalo 0-7
There’s nothing much to be said here. Tokyo will win this one big. But can the conference’s #3 defense hold the conference’s #15 offense to a shutout? I think so.
Western Conference Game of the Week
Waianae 5-2 vs Mason Cty 6-1
Waianae has been a surprise to me this season so far. I have picked them and they’ve fallen flat, I have picked against them and they have pulled out upsets. Today I pick against them and Mason Cty will be strong enough to make this pick count.
Lancashire 7-0 vs Toronto 3-4
Lancashire has proven to be the gem of the West so far. The train won’t stop in Toronto. The canucks will be in a Rush to get off the field in this one.
Colts 0-7 vs Pudong 1-6
In this week’s battle of irrelevance I am picking the Skyfire based mostly on being 4 levels above the Colts, but mostly because they were tails.
Peoria 5-2 vs Plymouth 2-5
Peoria doesn’t have a boosted roster, but what they do have is human players… and that is more than enough to pillage these Pirates.
Tennessee 4-3 vs Bedford 1-6
Tennessee’s defense is finally coming around and their offense had been firing on all cylinders. That spells trouble for a down trodden Rodent team. This week the Tyrants play the role of exterminator.
Pudong 1-3 vs Peoria 2-2
Even though Peoria is stocked with level 3 dots they have managed to remain in the middle of the pack offensively and defensively, which is more than I can say for the Dongers. Too many cpu players has them fighting an uphill battle week after week and it will be more of the same in this one.
Eastern Conference
Cliché 6-1 vs Denver 2-5
Denver has completely lost all their MOJO since the new ownership came to town. Cliché will bounce back from their loss to Walmart and take out all their frustrations on the Freeze as they breeze for a few weeks until hit a loaded last three weeks of the season.
TDs 3-4 vs FFA 5-2
The team everyone loves to hate will bounce back from the bitch slap they got from the Zoners. TDs has shown signs of life since they were bought, but that has been against teams without a pulse. Week 8 they are brought back to reality and stop their #winning ways.
Otago 2-5 vs Springfield 1-6
I think the iron man team can break their way through to a third win this week. Springfield has shown little life and a prime for a beat down. Not much else to say in this match-up.
South Yorkshire 2-5 vs Ft. Gordon 4-3
After coming back from a three game losing streak Ft. Gordon will be out for blood like US Army kill squad. Too soon? Deal with it!! South Yorkshire won’t have much of a chance here and Ft Gordon will start their second winning streak of the season.
Rochester 0-7 vs Philly 3-4
Despite being able to play like they know how to win I have no choice but to pick Philly in this game. Whether they game plan or not they should be able to sleep walk through The Vendetta.
League 7 Game of the Week
Chocolate Eels 7-0 vs Walmart 7-0
Trust me, I would love to pick my own team here, but after running into a road block against bloodfart’s other Rookie team I am going to have to see if there is a rabbit in the hat. With my limited OC experience I don’t think that rabbit is in there.
Samba 6-1 vs Psycho Gorilla 0-7
Another game of a quality team against a zombie team. The Gorillas put this season on cruise control before the regular season even started. The problem is they left their grandmother behind the wheel. The Vikings will have no problem taking over this week.
Colonial 6-1 vs Bortsville 4-3
Bortsville has less mystery to them than my fiancée’s meatloaf. The answer is they’re an average team that beats up on the weaker team and folds to the stronger teams. The Zoners are one of those stronger teams. The Nerfs will fold like a card table and wait for the Philly game next week to show signs of life.
