Texan's Week 10 Picks
Current Record: 69-10-1
Welcome to the GLB time machine. Get out those tight polyester pants and lava lamps, it's disco week.
Naga
Saigon (9-0) v Assassins (4-5) It was a disappointing loss last time out for CA and now they are hoping to say "I Will Survive" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBR2G-iI3-I to their playoff chances. Saigon meanwhile is steamrolling everyone just as predicted and they intent to start gearing up CA for their "Last Dance" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qG07rYStCjw at a chance for the playoffs. A loss here doesn't end it for CA but they are definitely on the wrong side of .500. Saigon 85, CA 6.
The Blue (8-1) v CMM (5-4) CMM really did themselves a favor "Stayin Alive" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHWeuQyFouo in the playoff picture last time out by beating Bacolod. It gives them a little bit of cushion that they'll need with some very rough teams left on the schedule, including a Blue team that is really rolling this season and has mc in full "Celebration" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeTgx_pj6m8 mode. The Blue 45, CMM 30.
Tibet (8-1) v Bacolod (4-5) Bacolod is now on the outside trying to climb back into the postseason race while Tibet is looking like "Hot Stuff" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27-TM3q5-Cc and is on cruise control, other than their expected Saigon hiccup. I think Bacolod, with a great game plan and a little "Knock on Wood" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ztZ7WFo3nw , has a chance here but it is definitely not the high % play. Tibet 40, Bacolod 16.
Semarang (7-2) v PDM (7-2) This looks like the Naga game of the week to me as two teams that just picked up clutch wins and are fighting for playoff home games collide. Both teams beat PDP, Semarang much more impressively, but before PDP got going. Whomever wins this one will be in great shape and in the mood to "Get Down Tonight" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lF6SbFL1VWg but for damn sure you're going to have to do "The Hustle" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFz2WkVAk38 and bring it here. This should be a dogfight right until the end and I expect both Ds to step up. PDM 20, Semarang 17.
PDP (6-3) v Alabama (2-7) Alabama came out and took it to the Teabaggers their last game and are hoping to get a roll. PDP meanwhile dropped a heartbreaker to the Monks as their "Super Freak" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYHxGBH6o4M star WR dropped the winning TD catch. Really there is no "Shame" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxNqRFBqWzU in Alabama losing to the vet Pro team here. PDP 42. Alabama 17.
SLS (5-4) v Golden Hill (1-8) SLS is a definite playoff team despite dropping a couple of tough games recently. Golden Hill meanwhile reminders me more of the Sugarhill Gang in "Rapper's Delight" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6gD_CwF5YM the way they've been playing so far this season. I think SLS will definitely look like a "Macho Man" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO43p2Wqc08 by the time this one's over.
HKH (4-5) v VT (3-6) HKH avoided a "Bad Luck" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VR8KfMTmPRQ loss last time out and are very much alive for the playoffs. VT meanwhile is pretty much on life support but they're still out there fighting and "It Only Takes A Minute" of mistakes by HKH for VT to claw their way back in the game. I kinda don't see that happening though. HKH 35, VT 16.
Phuket (2-7) v Mekong (0-9) Mekong has been a great SEA franchise for quite a while now but it appears their fire has gone out in Pro for now, looking for a "Holiday" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K89AtVD4NGs in AAA. Phuket meanwhile just wants to win enough to not get relegated at this point, avoiding that "Date with the Rain" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMigCvlqOvU of AAA and this game will help. Phuket 75, Mekong 3.
garuda
Tet (9-0) v Dummies (3-6) The Dummies are just a game out of that 8th playoff spot and unfortunately, barring a miracle from "Wishing on a Star" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZNH1_RGXkY and will be at least that after tomorrow as well. Tet's starters will probably have enough energy after this one to head out to "Ladies Night" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KvbisFtTz8 at the disco. Tet 105, Dummies 6.
Buffalo (9-0) v Hell's (3-6) Those of us fans are just biding our time for the big Buffalo v Tet matchup, so this is more of an appetizer and one of those you just kind of pick over waiting for the entree as Buffalo picks up "More More More" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlJGrIyt-X8 wins. Hell's is also one game out of the playoff race but will certainly not be better off after this. They probably feel a little like they're staring down the "Devil's Gun" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LojkS7FIzcg here. Buffalo 75, Hell's 9.
Lucid (8-1) v Empire (4-5) It is pretty apparent that at least one sub-.500 team will make the playoffs in garuda and you know Empire would like to be that team, as long as they stay in "Contact" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9DKd9SZWE8 with that final spot. Given their rivals' schedules this loss won't hurt all that bad while this promises to be more "Good Times" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8g6bUe5MDRo for the vet team. Lucid 42, Empire 20.
TKW (7-2) v Johor (0-9) The reunion "Love Train" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7MiG2fe8lE continues for two former Pro teams back in the mix but only one of them thinks it's any fun. All I know is that TKW, "You Make Me Feel" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG2ixYJ79iE might real. Whatever the hell that means. TKW 130, Johor 3.
Bangalore (6-3) v Sweatshop (3-6) I feel bad for picking a narrow margin for Sweatshop last week, they were much better than that. Don't get me wrong I am going to pick them to lose here also if you "Ask Me" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yygk6uAFgyo , but look pretty good doing it. No offense intended, it's just that Bangalore is always a "Brick House" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrBx6mAWYPU Bangalore 24, Sweatshop 17.
Munich (6-3) v Singapore (6-3) Here is the garuda game of the week and it should be pretty entertaining. Both teams will make the playoffs, so this one is for seeding. There's sometimes a new kid that will "Rock the Boat" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfBwsG8ubFw for the established teams and Munich is doing that but I think Singapore has a little more firepower this time out, but I've been wrong before. Don't go thinking "Ain't No Stopping Us Now" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY0tsKCB4lc because, well Tet and Buffalo are still around for the playoffs. Singapore 35, Munich 27.
Manila (2-7) v Shiroyama (1-8) Manila is having an uncharacteristically bad season but they'll avoid relegation as the Samurai will take care of that for them because the Samurai "Got to Give It Up" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeLjT4nrUTQ this season. Don't expect Manila to party like it's 1999 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSqYAbBFhzc after this one though. Manila 42, Samurai 6.
Flint (1-8) v San Francisco (1-8) One of these guys picks up their second win and that's about the only good thing I have to say about this game. Just try to keep it between the "White Lines" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ChjLMbXVrU boys. Flint 35, SF 13.
