Week 1 saw a ton of upsets leaving the WL title wide open. Any of the final 8 teams can win it in this season of parity.
Last Week's Record: 3-5
seahawk's Week 2 Playoff Preview and Picks
Texan's Usual disclaimer sounds good to me: this is my opinion only. If you don’t like it, I still love you.
#4 Cincinnati Shockers vs. #8 C-Town MF'n Hood
The Hood has to feel good after not only beating MPHD but handing them a beating. Those poor declining dots didn't have a chance. It was like a gangster taking beating the crap out an old man on a bus. I thought MPHD was beard man http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hj6KaCMMYBk but instead Hood was Hard In The Paint: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkkC9cK8Hz0 Cincy meanwhile has gone 9-2 the last 11 regular season games including beating the Hood with a Bobblehead. Tough call here, but I am going with the Hood. An 8-seed in the conference finals? The Hood will Bring the Noise both on the forums and on the dotball field:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu3AVjfhvqo
Hood 38 - Cincy 30
#3 Dallas Longhorns vs. #7 E-City Mercenaries
E-City continues to defy the odds knocking out last year's champs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu3AVjfhvqo They had to get a little nervous watching that 4th quarter as Odessa, trailing by 36 ran off 28 straight points before running out of time. But don't call it a comeback as E-City took their foot off the gas to take some of the sting out of the loss. Dallas meanwhile got off to a hot start and then stumbled a bit in the regular season but the first round games had Dallas saying It Was A Good Day http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWfbGGZE07M The Longhorns now have to like their chances of getting to the title game. I think they end E-City's dreams but like Newcleus they have to be happy that they were able to Jam On It:

Dallas 45 - E-City 24
#1 Canton Immortals vs. #4 East St Louis Tire Fires
The Canton vs. EEA game was fun to watch. If only EEA had run here: http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1707078&pbp_id=10587936 If they pound it in the rest of the way I think they find the end zone and send Canton home. EEA goes back to the Waiting Room in search of their first WL playoff win: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGJFWirQ3ks Canton gets to a chance to avenge one of their four regular season losses with a re-match with East St. Louis. The question is can Johnny Unitas match TD completions with Malik Rose? Maybe they shouldn't even try that route as Canton's HB's The Natural and Carnell Williams gashed the Tire Fires run defense. The key will be finding the holes in the defense, which coordinator will find out Everywhere I'm Not: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv9-VHbM2-s That doesn't even make sense, but I like that song. I think ESL wins this one going away with Canton making too late comeback. Corporate Endorsements ftw! This game will taste like Sugar Water to the East St. Louis fans:

East St. Louis 45 - Canton 35
#3 Paris Musketeers vs. #7 Sofia Spiders
We know all about Sofia by now. Having to overcome millions of dollars in premium promotions does not hide how good this team is. Attention World League: There are Spiders in the Dressing Room! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Camff0FRRXw Taking out a former World League champ is no mean feet. Paris meanwhile is raising a ruckus on the WL forums after sinking the Pirates. Somalia tried a mutiny on the Musketeers ship and Paris said, Invaders Must Die http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTw2YvutJRA I will again take the lower seed since Sofia already took out Paris in the regular season and seem to be hitting their stride. I could easily go 0-4 this week. All I know for sure is that when the playoffs hit the WL forums are never Oh So Quiet:

Sofia 37 - Paris 24
