Week : 12. The picture is starting to clear up.

The top 7 teams are static this week all pulling off expected wins. #8 Also remains the same even with Bratislava's loss to Corpus Christi. Corpus Christi does move up to #9 though, leapfrogging the WAR MACHINE. 8 - Mile moves up to #11. The Chicago Beasts fall to #13, with everyone else holding steady.


1. Honolulu Hurricane Wife Carriers
2. Austin Wineswilling Fancy Boys
3. New Jersey Battalion
4. Richmond Rebel Yell
5. Ketchikan Kamper Adventure Rentals
6. SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL
7. New Orleans Hoodoo Voodoo
8. Bratislava Lambeau Leapers
9. Corpus Christi Illegal Aliens
10. WAR MACHINE
11. 8 Mile Assault
12. Ontario Ice Weasels
13. Chicago Beasts
14. Chicago Blitz
15. Baton Rouge Buccaneers
16. Gaines Panthers


Now down to game predictions. I will order the games based on my rankings.

Game 1: Honolulu Hurricane Wife Carriers VS Chicago Blitz
The Wife Carriers hate playing in Chicago. It's just too fricking cold there. That won't stop them from racking up the points this week though.

Game prediction: 95 - 3 Honolulu.

Game 2: Austin Wineswilling Fancy Boys VS Ketchikan Kamper Adventure Rentals
KKAR didn't fare to well last week against New Jersey, and this week won't be easy either. Austin will have to put some effort into the game, but it will be enough and they will win in front of the hometown crowd.

Game Prediction: 35 - 17 Austin Wineswilling Fancy Boys.

Game 3: New Jersey Battalion VS Corpus Christi Illegal Aliens
Corpus Christi is feeling pretty good coming off a shoot out win against Bratislava. This week they face New Jersey, and even their flying saucers can't give them enough of an edge to take out the Battalion.

Game prediction: 45 - 19 New Jersey.

Game 4: Richmond Rebel Yell VS Gaines Panthers
Richmond gets the free pass this week.

Game prediction: 255 - 0 Richmond

Game 5: SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL VS Ontario Ice Weasels
The GROWL shouldn't have too much of a problem chasing down the Ice Weasels this week. Still the little guys can run forever, so they should put up some decent yardage, it just won't be enough to keep them out of the Jaws of SOUTH GEORGIA.

Game prediction: 52 - 16 SOUTH GEORGIA

Game 6: New Orleans Hoodoo Voodoo VS Bratislava Lambeau Leapers
At the beginning of the season I had these 2 teams down as a coin flip. However, as the season has gone on, New Orleans has been far more consistent. I think their workman like attitude, and solid defense will put the game in their favor.

Game prediction: 36 - 10 New Orleans

Game 7: WAR MACHINE VS 8 Mile Assault
Both teams really need to pick up a win here if they want to make the playoffs. One will get one step closer, and the other will fall another step closer to playing golf this off season. I gotta pull for the home team and pick 8 Mile here.

Game prediction: 24 - 21 8 Mile Assault

Game 8: Chicago Beasts VS Baton Rouge Buccaneers
Both teams are out of the playoff race, so they are just playing for pride. Both teams have been playing better in the latter part of the season, so this isn't a no brainer pick. Still I think that the Beasts have a better shot at winning than the Bucks, but it shouldn't be a run away score.

Game prediction: 24 - 14 Beasts.

Normally I would have a salty treat lined up for you, but today the only salt comes from the sweat on my brow. Long day. and thus the late predictions.

Hope this was fun for you!

Well Let's see how I did.

Game 1: Honolulu Hurricane Wife Carriers VS Chicago Blitz
Game prediction: 95 - 3 Honolulu.
Actual: 238 - 0 Honolulu
I expected a route, but not one this big.

Game 2: Austin Wineswilling Fancy Boys VS Ketchikan Kamper Adventure Rentals
Game Prediction: 35 - 17 Austin Wineswilling Fancy Boys.
Actual: 34 - 17 Austin
Sometimes I even impress myself with my predictions. But then again, blind squirrel and all that.

Game 3: New Jersey Battalion VS Corpus Christi Illegal Aliens
Game prediction: 45 - 19 New Jersey.
Actual: 115 - 30 New Jersey
That pretty much does it for Corpus Christi's season. From here on out they can only play spoiler.

Game 4: Richmond Rebel Yell VS Gaines Panthers
Game prediction: 255 - 0 Richmond
Actual: 255 - 0 (537 - 0) Richmond
Yawn...

Game 5: SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL VS Ontario Ice Weasels
Game prediction: 52 - 16 SOUTH GEORGIA
Actual: 35 - 10 GROWL
The Weasels continue to struggle, but also continue to put forth a good effort. One can only wonder how well this team would have done with a full roster instead of just 38 real players.

Game 6: New Orleans Hoodoo Voodoo VS Bratislava Lambeau Leapers
Game prediction: 36 - 10 New Orleans
Actual: 30 - 3 New Orleans
New Orleans continues to look good this week with a nice win over Bratislava.

Game 7: WAR MACHINE VS 8 Mile Assault
Game prediction: 24 - 21 8 Mile Assault
Actual: 38 - 31 WAR MACHINE
This one stung badly for 8 Mile. The game was well fought on both sides, but it looked like WAR MACHINE's use of the Rushing QB, is what made the difference in this game.

Game 8: Chicago Beasts VS Baton Rouge Buccaneers
Game prediction: 24 - 14 Beasts.
Actual: 37 - 20 Beasts
Pretty good game by both teams, though the early pick - 6 didn't do the Bucks any favors.

7-8 this week. That's almost something to be proud of. Any pride I would have taken from that was quickly deflated by 8 Mile's loss to the WAR MACHINE. I guess I should have found some salty goodness to give my team the boost they needed, but I was all tapped out.
