Naga
Monks (10-0) v Saigon (9-1)
Buckle up ladies and gentlemen, this should be good. These two teams are no "Bosom Buddies", but they're definitely "Too Close for Comfort" in the standings. Saigon is out to prove their first pro loss is just a blip on the radar but the Monks feel this is their season of destiny. In the end it comes down to line v line and that is tough to call. Monks 20, Saigon 19.
SLS (9-1) v CMM (1-9)
SLS continues to front load their schedule so much I'm thinking of taking them to "Night Court". One thing's for sure though and that is CMM would need a "Sledge Hammer" to win this one. CMM's offense is already back though, just working on that D. SLS 45, CMM 27.
NBA (9-1) v PPW (0-10)
PPW is looking like "Private Benjamin" so far, but they're rebuilding, while the Jam has been "Out of This World." NBA 150, PPW 3.
Tibet (7-3) v PDP (6-4)
It seems like Tibet is having a much better season than PDP, yet there is only one game separating them. I'm sure Tibet would love to get over those pro "Growing Pains" and change that, but PDP would like to avoid their first franchise loss to Tibet but it will take some "Diff'rent Strokes" ala the Saigon game. PDP 30, Tibet 27.
Bali (6-4) v Thai (5-5)
Bali has won 5 straight and are red hot, but they are facing another surging team in Thai and "The Facts of Life" dictate one of them cools off a bit here. "Cheers" to the winner. Thai 35, Bali 28.
The Blue (4-6) v HKH (3-7)
Desperation time for the Blue as they face an HKH team that has won 2 straight. Having dumped their "Golden Girls" Winona roster, The Blue expects to take a step up. HKH came in talking a lot but have yet to prove they are "Charles in Charge" by any means. The Blue 27, HKH 24.
Bacolod (4-6) v Rumrunners (0-10)
Bacolod is hoping to bounce back from the disappointment of losing 3 straight "Day by Day". Rumrunners are learning from this experience and can use it to get stronger in the future, "Check it Out". Bacolod 65, Rumrunners. 6
Mekong (3-7) v SCSK (3-7)
After starting 2-0, SCSK has fallen upon hard time while Mekong still has an outside shot to compete this season under the "Family Ties" of flounder and SI. At this point SCSK is just saying "Gimme a Break". Mekong 35, SCSK 17.

Krungthep (10-0) v Tet (10-0)
Holy crap Batman, this will be awesome. We're probably seeing the top offense in Tet versus the top D in Krungthep. Right now it's "Happy Days" for both teams, but really "Who's the Boss" here? I think this has the potential to be a game where you really want to watch the whole replay, even if it's not your team. Krungthep 38, Tet 35.
Bangalore (10-0) v RSR (1-9)
Bangalore keeps cruising and they're feeling like they've got "Silver Spoons" right now. RSR is probably feeling more like "Punky Brewster", but it will likely get better for them next season. Bangalore 55, RSR 17.
LSP (9-1) v Sydney (5-5)
I keep counting Sydney out and they keep hanging around and hosing my picks, but if they want to move on up like the "Jeffersons", they'll have to get by LSP. That is a tall order as LSP isn't facing problems any more serious than the "Brady Bunch" had to deal with. LSP 35, Sydney 13.
Buffalo (7-3) v Lampang (5-5)
Lampang is hurting having lost 3 straight and are feeling as out of place as the "Beverly Hillbillies" right now. Buffalo put up a fight against Krungthep and carry on like the "Love Boat". I think Lampang may regroup some here, but...Buffalo 30, Lampang 20.
Sweatshop (6-4) v Lucid (5-5)
This is an important game in the playoff race and these two teams are definitely not "Perfect Strangers". Is it "Three's a Crowd" for the odd man out in Lucid/Sweatshop/Lampang showdown with Sydney lurking? One of these teams just on a roll imo...Sweatshop 31, Lucid 21.
Singapore (4-6) v Danang (2-8)
Was Singapore's big win over BKK season-saving or just a nice building point? Call "Barney Miller" to investigate. Hey, at least Danang isn't going to have to take the first "Taxi" out of Pro with a couple of teams below them. Singapore 27, Danang 24.
Ottawa (3-7) v MMJ (1-9)
At least Ottawa has been competitive in their first season and although MMJ is rebuilding now they created a Pro pedigree in the past. Both teams are playing for next season right now and it's no "Small Wonder" if they are just on cruise control. "Good Times" for Ottawa here. Ottawa 45, MMJ 10.
Dharma (CPU) v BKK (3-7)
BKK gets back into the win column here at the expense of garuda's "Webster". BKK 255, Dharma 0.
