Good morning and welcome to Casual Pro News. Before we get started, please understand that in the words of the great Paul Heyman, "this is not a prediction it is a spoiler".
Final Standings (Predicted order of finish)
1 Arditi Italia (1) 14-2-0
2 Magua's Revenge (3) 12-4-0
3 Philadelphia Phrenzy (2) 11-5
4 Skull Valley Slaughter (4) 8-8
5 Your Dad Also Goes To College (5) 3-13
6 San Dimas Saints (6) 1-15
Other than Magua and Phiily swapping spots this went pretty much as expected.
1 Steel City Kops (1) 15-1-0
2 Your Mom Goes To College (3) 11-5
3 Granite Peak Grizzlies (2) 10-6
4 Arctic Smurfin' Wolfpack (5) 6-10
5 Ghost Creek Cowboys (4) 5-11
6 River City Ransom (6) 0-16
SCK losing a game was to ruin my initial prediction. I am not sure if I am more shocked by their one loss, Your Mom finishing second, or the ONLY all rushing team in the league finishing above Ghost Creek. For the record, when I am with her, Your Mom always finishes first.
Spoilers
(1) Arditi Italia vs (4) Skull Valley Slaughter
No chance that SVS can handle the high powered passing attack Arditi is brining in. They can't do much on the ground but their Brady/Manning type QB duo will light up the scoreboard. Arditi 73-20
(2) Magua's Revenge vs (3) Philadelphia Phrenzy
Magua was 2-0 against the back2back champs this season. I think this one will be close with the newcomers coming up a missed PAT short. Phrenzy 28-27
(1) Steel City Kops vs (4) Arctic Smurfin' Wolfpack
SCKs defense is just too much for the Smurfs. SCK 30-6
(2) Your Mom Goes to College vs (3) Granite Peak Grizzlies
These two split the season series in two really good games. My heart says your Mom but my fingers are typing Grizzlies. GPG 31-30
Semifinals
(1) Italia vs (3) Phrenzy
Phrenzy on a quest to 3peat run into a much better runner. This game will be close but Arditi will pull it out and ensure there is a new champion crowned. Italia 24-21
(1) SCK vs (3) Granite Peak
The Grizzlies had a really bad 2-6 stretch but followed it up by winning their last 5 which included handing SCK their only regular season loss. We all know GPG is capable of winning this league but this is the year of SCK. Kops 35-24
Championship Game
(1)SCK vs (1)Arditi
The regular season game was awesome. The Italia stormed back to take a 38-37 lead with 1:28 left in the game but SCK was able to drive and kick a game winning FG with 32 seconds left. I don't think this one will be as exciting but it will still be a good game.
SCK 41-34
Season 97 Casual Pro Champions
STEEL CITY KOPS!!!!
That will do it for this edition. See you again whenever I feel the urge!
