I used to do these many moons ago and it became quite the hassle while trying to gameplan. So now it appears I have some time on my hand and I may give it a shot once more. Lrats can have it back should he return from his hiatus,so we'll see how it goes before I commit to doing more. 
South Riding Stingrays (3-4) at Bonn Dynamo (7-0)
Last weeks saw the Stingrays FINALLY start to resemble the dominant team they had hoped to become, unfortunately it came vs the hapless Portland Rage. The Bonn made light work of Hattgenstein Volunteers, leaving some to wonder if some volunteers aren't contemplating desertion! The rays have some weapons to be sure. In their last meaningful game QB Levi Jackson was very efficient going 31/35 for almost 500 yds (494). They also have a TE in Safya Naim that if able to find a crease can hurt ya. Problem is Bonn has some weapons of their own. Sven is a man amongst men this season and will look to make a push to solidify his claim as MVP of WEPL.
It might as well be the gold fish vs the piranhas. Bonn rides the Stingrays forwards and backwards on their way to a 60+point win. The only real drama is whether Bonn scores triple digits.
West Wales Warriors (6-1)at Paris Penguins (2-4)
West Wales has proven by their play that there's more to Alpha then the Bonn. Riding the coattails of their All Pro QB Johny Oscar and all world RB J.J Jacobsen they have jumped out to a 6-1 record with their only loss being to the top ranked Bonn. Last week Sarcasticsleuth and co impressively found a way to put the clamps on the dangerous Griff Oberweld who "only" ran for over 2200 yards a season ago. Going into this game Griff was averaging 5.0 a carry and looked like the same workhouse from a year ago until meeting the Warriors, who held him to 47 yds on 21 carries. The Penguins' only victories came at the expense of maybe the two most struggling teams in Alpha, Portland notwithstanding. For them to have a chance they will need to find some offense and find it fast, which will be no small order vs a very hot West Wales team.
The March of the Penguins towards relegation advances by one more game. Wales 63 - Penguins 20
Greenwood Alley Cat (6-1) at Portland Rage (0-7)
Portland finds them selves in a precarious predicament. If they continue their losing ways they will surely find themselves relegated. Expect QB gunslinger, Troy Tracy to come out firing to his ever deadly receivers in Rickey Christian and Billy Kirk. But can Anthony Newvillage, turned traitor, as well as the rest of the Greenwood secondary match up? Greenwood boasts the ever dangerous Harold Bluetooth and now the ultra quick Jabba Wockee. But they will be no match for the defensive line of "The Chazz'ster" Chaz Clayton or the pass rushing phenom Beau Croft.
Portland continues their 4th quarter stumbles and is unable to come from behind in this tightly contested matchup. Greenwod 310 - Portland (-)20
Hattgenstein Volunteers (2-5) at Paris Dream Bolts (6-1)
Threatening to trade any players who are considering desertion to Portland, Hattgenstein enters this game with a full squad and brimming full of confidence after limiting the Bonn Dynamo to a mere 96 points. They will need every bit of it as they take on the Dream Bolts from Paris. If Alvin Mack can get some pressure as he did when he had a 12 sack performance vs....errr....Port...land...yeah about that....nevermind, they're fucked.
Bolts zap the Volunteers leading Volunteer Coach Jaydamo to pronounce some sort of moral victory immediately afterwards.
Team Perkis (3-3-1) at Football Forum Fighting Danes (5-2)
Coming in at 3-3-1 Team Perkis is an enigma of sorts. A very talented trio at Rb they just can't seem to put everything together at the same time to pull out some of these games. Ranking 4th in the league in rushing they have the talent. As to what's holding them back you're guess is as good as mine. The Danes who now don't have to worry about Portland dashing their postseason hopes enter this game with a renewed confidence and resolve to atone for their weak performance a week ago. The Danes are still strong where many teams wish they were , running the ball and stopping it. It's time to get back to their winning ways.
Team Perkis plays the Danes close, then Per Gonzalez drives a dagger through their heart... Per Gonzalez 21 - Team Perkis 20
Graz Grizzlies (4-3) at Belfast Commados (1-6)
Season 8 Champion Graz Grizzlies comes off an unimpressive win vs a struggling Paris team which saw them outgained by over 100yds.. With close losses vs the Danes and Paris they must feel like they're not too far from making some noise. Their star RB Dolomite Jenkins who shares an eerie resemblance to Greenwoods own RB Jellybean Jenkins, will look to have a big game. Belfast will hope to see their top ranked passing offense air it out vs a Graz pass defense that ranks 30th overall. Moises Santana enters the game as the leading wr in receiving yards in Alpha.
In an upset Belfast wins coming from behind on a final minute score. 35-33
Turin Thunder (2-4-1) at Paris Philharmonic (3-4)
Another team that is somewhat of an enigma is Turin. A win here gives the Thunder a .500 record before getting slapped silly by Bonn. It would still be nice to get to .500 and give themselves a shot at sneaking into the playoffs. Overshadowed by many of the other outstanding HB's in alpha is Walter Schobak. Schobak may be the best RB that no one has heard of, averaging 4.8 a carry and 689 yards which put this RB amongst the elite in rushing yards, (although one might also point to Turins relatively soft schedule to this point.) With games vs Bonn, Wales, Graz, and the Danes still looming Turin can't afford to let any games slip away. Paris Philharmonic is not that far removed from a WEPL Championship. There is talent in Paris, most notably in the electrifying Aguda Monster whose production has been downright scary! 1st amongst voting for MVP, this dynamic runner enters the game with 1363 all purpose yards ranking him in glorified air ranking only second to Bluetooths 1418 all purpose yards for Alpha. A Paris victory almost certainly is contingent on another scary offensive explosion from Aguda.
Toss up ......heads Turin...tails paris........................heads says Turnin prevails.

b]artic Tigers (2-5) at E-City Mercenaries (1-6)
In the least anticipated game of the week the artic Tigers travel to Armchair Theatre in an effort to prove which team is worse then the other. artic enters at 2-5 which is a surprise in it self as they were predicted by SI himself to have no problem with "WELP." The Mercenaries a playoff team a season ago has to wonder what the hell happened to make such a precipitous fall. Much to the chagrin of Zick Zack to win means stopping the rushing attack of the Tigers which has been impressive enough to rank 6th in the league. Ooooops 686 came in a win vs Portland. So much for that great rushing attack. Who will suck worse?
The suck overfloweth but the home team sucks less.
