WEEK 7 Magic 8 Ball Report
We all must be thinking the same thing. Last
week, I decided that for this weeks article I would break down the playoff race
since we are officially half way through our FF regular season. Well, I get up
this morning and 2 guys have already posted in the forum just such a thing.
Nice job boys. Some of the league are thinking they have met their end for the
year. Don't! It is not hard to rattle off 6 in a row and squeak your way into
the playoffs............LOL NOT!!!!!!! Don't kid yourselves. The 1-5 teams
need to think about spoiling and what they are going to do with their
Christmas.....Nuff of that.....8 BALL!!!!!! You're up.
Legends (2-4) v
Gadabouts (1-5)
According to the Legends' shot call a couple of weeks
ago, he just lost his last game. His call has him winning the next 6 in a row.
Luckily for him, he picked the right team to start getting on that track. The
Gadabouts are 2 games out of 3rd place in their chapter. They have 4 of their 6
games under 300 points. Yikes. The Legends are 4 games out of their chapter
lead and have 7 teams above them with a better record, and 8 teams with a better
"all-play" record. Their chance at a playoff spot is dwindling quickly. To
make things worse, their lineup this week on offense reads like this: QB
Hasselbeck/Smith. RB Goodson/Green ellis/Tanner. WR DHB/lafell/Mike W/ and
good TE's......LOL The Gadabouts don't have much better going for them this
week but we will literally go to the 8 ball this week and ask it. Straight from
ask8ball.net.......
Will the Legends win this week: 8 Ball: DON'T
COUNT ON IT... you heard the ball
Clowns (1-5) v Eagles
(6-0)
Ughhhhhhhhh. Remember when Lucy keeps holding the ball for
Charlie Brown and then pulls it away at the last second to see him fly through
the air and land on his back. That's what the Damn Eagles are doing every week
to all us Charlie Browns. This week, it's the Charlie Clowns. Even though the
Eagles are having to play a somewhat different roster this week, In our opinion,
the Charlie Clowns will go running as fast as they can and end up flying through
the air, landing on their back. And, looking up at the sky they will lay there
dreaming of next season as this one slipped through their fingers in the
draft.
Are the Eagles Championship bound? 8 Ball said: MY SOURCES
SAY NO..... the ball don't lie, do it?
Empire (2-4) v Destroyers
(4-2)
We've all been there. We've been the Empire. The team the one
with the highest points allowed, while posting nearly the highest points for in
the league. They have that to smile about. And they have the all play record.
Despite heading down a road that in most leagues you would be kicking your cat
all offseason for not making the playoff, the Empire have hope. Their all play
record is 30 games better than the next guy in line. So, despite losing again
this week to the Destroyers, the Empire will make the playoffs and might be that
ever frightening losing record team that goes to the championship.
Will
the Empire get the #6 seed in the playoffs? 8 Ball said: MY SOURCES SAY
NO...... Sorry Empire
Cats (5-1) v Slings (2-4)
The Slings are a
happier bunch this week, early this week. They are another of these teams that
have had a ton of points scored against them. Unlike the Empire though, their
point total is weak. In short, they deserved to lose those games. Yes, they
will get a win here or there, but their point total last week was a fluke. The
highest score they put up before that was 303 and 4 weeks under 300. They get
to face a Cats team that has never scored below 300 and, despite a couple of
lineup changes, they are at near full strength. You know it, I know it and the
Slings know it, welcome back to suckiness in week 7.
Do the Slings suck
that bad? 8 Ball Said: DON'T COUNT ON IT.............See there is
hope
Legionnares (4-2) v Bombers (1-5)
You've heard it before,
the Bombers are bad. But, take a look at their lineup. It doesn't look like a
one game winner. The Legionnaires, got away with one this week and with this
chapter as close as it is, they are probably thinking they can extend that this
week on the hapless Bombers. Don't bet that game there Jon, I see it
differently. I like the Bombers this week to bring Justin back to where he
belongs in the middle of the tightest chapter in Roster wars.
Can the
Legionnares pad their lead? 8 Ball Said: MY SOURCES SAY NO...........See, told
you
Killers (2-4) v Demons (5-1)
I'm telling you right now, this
is the fluke of all flukes. My worst picks have gone against the Demons. Look
at this team. Good? I think not. The reason....the third lowest points
allowed in the league. And, it's not due to their defense. This is it, this is
the moment in the year where the Demons true colors start to turn yella. The
Killers, though they also suck, are going to right their ship and in a sense
right the Demon ship to and send them on a losing streak for the
ages.
Are the Demons worth a damn? 8 Ball Said: DON"T COUNT ON
IT.............Didn't need the ball for that
Africans (3-3) v Eternals
4-2)
Say what you will the about the Eternals pouty face sessions the
other week, it worked. Some of you craphole teams should start your own therapy
bullshit very soon. The Eternals are creatures of the night. You know can't see
yourself in the mirror nonsense. Well speaking of mirrors, that's what this
record is. Smoke and mirrors. The Eternal are 3rd in total points scored in DD.
FROM THE BOTTOM!!! So what you get is a bad ass lion to come in and tear some
stuff up. Africans put on a show this week.
Can the Eternals keep
pulling the wool? 8 Ball Said: MY SOURCES SAY NO.........Didn't think
so
Headhunters (4-2) v Spongebob Squidpoop (4-2)
After being
humiliated by the Clowns 2 weeks ago the Headhunters took care of binness last
week to reclaim their rightful standing in Chapter 2. Chaeto is in that boat
with some other teams where the chips have fallen their way. They are second
only to the (5-1) dragons(more on that later) in points allowed this season.
Their good luck could continue but we thinks not. Me hopes not. Squidleroy has
already proved enough, considering their outlook as determined by the league
back in May. Hang out, slow down and take her easy. Nothing left to
prove.
Does the floaty have anything left to prove? 8 Ball Said: CANNOT
PREDICT NOW.......Stupid ball
Skins (3-3) v Diggers (3-3)
The
Skins have now equaled their steak of wins with a streak of losses. The out of
chapter games have not been kind to the Skins as they have dropped all three
games. The Diggers can't make up their mind if they want to win or lose. Their
record is like this: Loss, Win, Loss, Win, Win, Loss. This, as I am learning
from my 4 year old, is a pattern so if we go with the pattern and it works out
as it should, I can, with almost as good of betting prowess as Jon, tell you the
rest of the Diggers' season. Last 6 weeks go like this: Loss, Win, Loss, Win,
Win, Loss. And, low and behold a 6-6 record can be predicted for the Diggers.
This is easy.
Will the pattern be proven right? 8 Ball Said: VERY
DOUBTFUL...........Damn Ball
Duffers (3-3) v Degenerates
(1-5)
The Duffers are in a funk, slowly deteriorating the last couple of
weeks. Owning the league low score in week 6, they nearly bested the year low.
The degenerates are great on offense. Their demise, however, begins and end with
the D. Check this The Vegas defensive started have totaled only 704 points so
far. The next closest D is a full 180 points higher than this. That number is
held by another 1-5 team in the Clowns. Damn boys you get that straight and you
might have something here. Bottom line is Vegas can't hang. Next year will be
here before you know it.
Can Vegas beat the odds? 8 Ball Said: ASK AGAIN
LATER.......figures
Spazz (2-4) v Dragons (5-1)
You have to love
the 3rd chapter. The best team in the league and then 3 guys battling for who
can suck the most. Two 2-4 teams and a 1-5. If anyone thinks the Damn Eagles
won't end with the best record, remember, he gets to play each of these crap
teams AGAIN!!! When the stars align for a team, they really align. I digress.
Spazz wins again, good for him. Now the Dragons own the best "points allowed"
mark in the conference. Meaning? No one he plays wants to play the week he plays
them. Stars align again this week for him as Spazz struggles to put up points.
Some guys have it all.
Do the Dragons have it all? 8 Ball Said: THE
OUTLOOK IS GOOD........Damn Dragons
Wolves (3-3) v CCS
(2-4)
Wolves have no lineup set as of 4:40est. They lose. DAMN
WOLVES
RWT ORACLE
Only time will tell whether the moves between chapters 5 & 6
results in a true change of fortunes or merely amounts to moving the deck chairs
around...
