It's Do or Die in Week #12

The only thing we can be sure of is death, taxes and only 3 teams have a lock on the playoffs this year. It's week 12 and we are almost certain the 3 teams at 8-3 will make the playoffs. No its just a matter of which team will get that 1st round bye ... The Razors, The Hitmen, or the Raiders.

But for 4 teams sittin' at 6-5 it's do or die this week. They're are only 2 slots left. So they need to win out for a shot at wildcard week-end.



The most tenuous match-up is the Killn' Koyote (6-5) vs Tap Out (6-5). A week #12 win would help secure the Fab Four division where it seems no one really wants to win this one, but somebody has to. Pamela looks poised to win this one... (Damn I hope that's not a jinx, I'll get my ass kicked for that).

He's back!! At 6-5 Double D is in dire straits. He is the hottest team in the league (W4), but in the toughest division. He would be in if the playoffs started today. But the reality is he's gotta beat the two rivals ahead of him (both with league leading 8-3 records) to make the play-offs. So Dave ... do you believe in miracles?

Open (in the) Slot (6-5) has battled all season to make the Fantastic Four division a horse race. If he can spank Rando's Razors in week #12, a week #13 loss and a Razors loss would lock them up in a tie. The division would be decided by points. That's a stretch, but its still possible. Personally I liked to see if JD could tank any worse than he did in last year's play-offs.

In the snowballs chance in hell department, The Wilson brothers square off in a battle of 5-6 teams. As crazy at is sounds ... two wins would give either the Pitbulls or the Force a winning record. And a shot at the division because they play their division rivals in week #12. Jeez, that's a lotta work to become play-off cannon fodder.

Week #10: Who's Your Daddy?

The week #9 results were not what we expected. The underdogs won more than they lost. And team that have dominated lost their MOJO. Some team did not just lose ... they got spanked.


Who's your Daddy Hitmen ... The high and mighty Philly Hitmen couldn't get it up for the Koyotes (a 30 point underdog). They lost 59-68. The Koyotes have been wallowing around the bottom of the Fab Four division, but they take down the Four Horsemen division leader and climb to 5-4 and a piece of the lead in the Fab Four.

Who's your Daddy rookie ... Tap Out gets spanked by the Slot 99-57. Jesse's been Hot, Hot, Hot the last four weeks, but Open in the Slot put out the flame. Tap missed a golden opportunity to take charge in the Fab Four, because ....

Rando's Razors is the Pitbulls Daddy ... Mike's mystical Pitbulls got smoked 107-60. The Razors were a 16 point underdog. We can;t figure out how, but Rando keeps finding a way to get it done.

Double D's Tigers is the SSF's daddy ... Dave laid a 86-42 whooping on the Force. At 4-5, Dave is mounting his classic come from behind charge into contention. You gotta feel a bit sorry for the Force. They were once a proud franchise ... now they getting spanked every week. :)

Week # 9 - Who's Hot and Who's Not.

WhO's hOt!

1. Tap Out (5-3) - The rookie has won 4 straight! Okay Dave ... its really only 3.5.

2. Philly Hitmen (7-1) - They have lost once the entire season ... how could they not be hot?

3. Killin' Koyotes (4-4) - Sure the Koyotes are just .500, But after a two game win streak they are only a game off the pace. One game above .500 could win the Fab Four division.

4. Open (in the) Slot (5-3) - JT has come to grips with the reality that there won't be a Very Brady Christmas this year. He's on a two game win streak and keepin' Rando's Razors honest.



Not So Hot
1. The Brooklyn Pitbulls (5-3) - It's been a roller coaster season for the dogs.

2. Rando's Razors (6-2) - Fraud!

3. Romo's Raiders (5-3) - Romo's was in position to lead the division two weeks ago. Now he's two games back (L2).

4. Double D' Flyin' Tigers - #4 on the "Not So hot list" makes you the 5th best loser. How's that for celebrating mediocrity.

Not Hot
1. The Soul Sonic Force (3-4) The SSF has gone from contender to chump in 3 weeks. They had a good start at 3-1, but losing 3 straight match-ups means they probably stink.

2. The OB Method (2-6) - OB, OB, OB ... what can we say?

3. The Jonesville Terrapins (1-7) - Dude! You're 1-7! How could you not be "Not Hot"?

4. Team Troegler (2-6) - Marty's only slightly less not hot than the Terps, because they won last week!
