Warrior General Games

Week 11 Predictions

Usual disclaimer: this is my opinion only. If you don’t like it, I still love you.

Welcome to a return to one of my favorites--80s new wave week.

NAGA

Game Of The Week
Pudong Skyfire (8-2) v Portland Dirty Penguins (8-2)
Seriously, I don’t have a mancrush on Pudong, it’s purely coincidental they have so many GoTWs this season and in no way am I So In Love http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfgyXfOQSJE with them. Bastiges. The Situation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPecGUzs_iw for PDP is certainly no dire but they’d like to make a statement I’m sure. This should be pretty hard-fought and I’ll make this my upset of the week. PDP 34, Pudong 31

Other Naga Games

The Cult (10-0) v Pa Dong Dragons (6-4)
Pa Dong looked to have been much improved this season, but now they’re in a fight for their Sweet Dreams http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeMFqkcPYcg of one of the last two playoff spots. The Cult meanwhile can do the Safety Dance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7movKfyTBII if they win this one because they will have officially clinched their spot in the big dance. TC probably just too much for Pa Dong atm. Cult 45, Pa Dong 20

Palembang Drunken Monks (9-1) v Victoria Teabaggers (5-5)
VT is another team locked in battle for one of the last two playoff spots and they own the head to head tie-breaker against Pa Dong. To use such a tie-breaker they would have to get even in record first and it would help if they could Whip It http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIEVqFB4WUo good against the Monks. While that could happen, I think it’s more likely that the Monks Rock the Casbah http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx-277MRYuM instead. Monks 30, VT 14

Sainte Foy Cyclones (8-2) v Orlando Praying Mantis (2-8)
Ah, another one of those mirror record games. SFC should be able to Relax http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyl5DlrsU90 in their game planning a bit. OPM is just building to a better season next time out in Our House http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXA6CLTDekw of SEAPL. SFC 52, OPM 17

Hong Kong Hustlers (8-2) v Cambodia Mountain Men (4-6)
Despite some bad losses, CMM is still on the fringes of the playoff hunt, but currently they are Down Under http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeG-hNXXy6I it a bit. HKH is not worried about making the playoffs, they have bigger plans, but hey, Everybody Wants To Rule the World http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ni_c0IMP-c HKH 42, CMM 20

Chi-Town Hustlers (5-5) v Woody Island Wolverines (3-7)
CTH is still right there in the playoff picture and a win would put them in the top 8 for now, most likely. Was it just that they Just Got Lucky http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-kfmuGHtxo so far or are they for real? Don’t look now but there was finally a WW and if they can run the table they could even sneak in as the 8 seed, but that would be a Once in a Lifetime http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1wg1DNHbNU turnaround, kinda like the 93 Oilers. WW 24, CTH 21

Golden Hill Bones (4-6) v Bacolod Skullcrushers (1-9)
The last team in this week’s countdown to still have playoff aspirations is GHB and this game will likely help keep it that way. CMM, Every Break You Take http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOGaugKpzs in SEAPL these days could be your last, which is sad because you’ve been here quite a while. GHB is looking to Shoot You Down http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ra1jNtqDI_k GHB 37, Bacolod 20

Beer Drinkers, Hell Raisers and Mom (1-9) v Guam Tigers (1-9)
In effect, this is the relegation bowl, where the winner is probably safe to stay in the league for next season. From that angle, it’s a big game, not so much otherwise. Don’t worry, I’ll Save a Prayer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Uxc9eFcZyM for after the game. Drinkers 20, Guam 17

lolgaruda

Game of the Week
Buffalo Rampage (9-1) v Wu Dang Kung Fu Academy (6-4)
I expect plenty of trash talking leading up to this one, making it the GoTW. It could also be a preview of a potential 2-7 or 1-8 playoff matchup. Buffalo has been Holding Back the Years http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG07WSu7Q9w in SEAPL for quite some time now, successfully reloading and competing each season. Wu is competing for sure, but I expect them to say Dear God http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hk41Gbjljfo Buffalo is good after this one’s over. Buffalo 45, Wu 14

Other lolgaruda Games

Three Kingdom Warriors (9-1) v Sioux Falls Storm (3-7)
This could get ugly, One Way or Another http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXewIR7Y7cc I don’t think there will be much to Celebrate http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtvBBL9NEaM for SFS in this one, but they’ll be back stronger next season. TKW 55, SFS 13

Lucid D.R.E.A.M. (8-2) v Krakow Kryptonite (5-5)
I say it most weeks, but I like the way Krakow competes and an upset here would be a huge shot in the arm for their playoff hopes as they are definitely still Alive and Kicking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljIQo1OHkTI Lucid has just been Burning Down the House http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljIQo1OHkTI when they go on the road for the most part. Can they do the same in Krakow? Lucid 38, Krakow 21

Phu Khao Bow Chicka Brown Cows (8-2) v Lefkada-Singapore Seahawks (2-8)
This game wins the longest total name award this week. The Cows are the only team so far this season to score 66 and lose, which probably made them want to Shout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7-EaF9628M at their computer screen. LSS is probably thinking I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hW88EvEAd0k this season, but there is always next season. Cows 66, LSS 20

New York Empire (7-3) v Mandalay King Cobras (1-9)
NYE is a team that could be scary come playoff time if they have the Desire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayu2XZ-mFGw to get things done. Mandalay is probably wondering Should I Stay or Should I Go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1Gn0e7kvTA re SEAPL. NYE 45, Mandalay 17

Buffalo Knights (6-4) v Tibetan Black Dragons (0-10)
Buffalo is probably doing enough to make the playoffs but it’s not pretty--they are a long ways from The Top http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXOsdsOj2o4 TBD meanwhile is probably going to Kiss The Dirt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flII6Dh8KYw again. Buffalo 220, TBD

Quad Cities Quarantine (5-5) v New People’s Army (0-10)
QCQ is in the top 8 and will stay there after this one. I don’t want to start any Blasphemous Rumors http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT4Kw3A0pHI but I’ve got them penciled in as a playoff team. NPA, just remember Boys Don’t Cry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8CDERzun4k QCQ 185, NPA 3

Boston Bears (4-6) v Atlantic Great Whites (4-6)
Somehow this turned into a potentially important game for that coveted 8 seed in lolgaruda. Who wants to get killed by TKW? That is a Bizarre Love Triangle http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8d91WpU4fo indeed. One of these teams faces the Killing Moon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX1PwkgwsG0 this time out. Boston 23, AGW 20

lolwu...

srsly

I'm doing the Safety Dance at the moment.

and good luck to Wu this week. (they'll need it)

great job as always

Cult going for Victoria this week...win for them and TC probably locks up nachos in Naga.

That being said, Monks looks to have a ridiculous D and not sure if Victoria can crack it, I was impressed with them last game tho.

Average lvl 73? Shouldn't you guys have made it to WL by now? Enjoy the win if you get it. Maybe it will console you if you end up drawing us for the playoffs.

Looks like George has to bust out his first offensive gameplan of the season.

PaDong is going to get rolled IMO. If you look at their schedule they've yet to play a decent team. SFC is in the same boat, when they did play tougher teams they got rolled and they beat PaDong.

I expect an absolute beat down. Something like 70-10

nah, I wouldn't go that far...I can't do the gameplan until after our scrimmage later...but I looked, they have some nice defenses. I think what's killing the is their lack of a 2nd TE and they\ are 6 players short on the roster so ST kills their overall energy.

their open builds are nice BTW

if we win by 60 I'll be surprised.

Yea I tried to recruit any receiving TE possible and couldn't get any STOPs to save my life.

already made WL...

went 9-7....

lemme know when Wu does something.

like not get demoted to AAA...

WL is always an accomplishment, but that was 7 seasons ago. The current group is maxed out on levels with several reaching the end of plateau even. Just sayin', might have underachieved a bit.

I can accept that. We should've beaten Tet, a few other seasons were close, but most seasons we just didn't have the horses.

So if being near the top of SEAPro for 10 seasons is underachieving, what is Wu doing?

damn nice one

only 2 points off the pudong score

Wu always over achieves. We are on it for the lulz. Stayingnin pro for 10 seasons should be cake for anyone with a decent network and the willingness to do it.

Our plan is to coast to a playoff spot this season. Next season we'll coast to a 3 seed and then make WL. Same song different verse for Kung Fu U.
