Due to the lateness of this preview, some games have already taken place this week, including a 24-20 barn burner between the victorious Dead Presidents and disappointed Fat Drunk and Awesome. While this surely was the game of the week, I would caution against looking past the potential the Thursday night thriller between the Beeriffic Channel 4 News Team and an up and coming Beeriffic Field of Genes.
While the movie themed team prepare to put their 0-11 combined record on the line, here are some other games to watch this week:
Vito Power v. DGS - always a presence, Vito Power is ready to take their shot at DGS. While teams have been lining up for a chance to beat DGS, no ones been able to do it since week 1.
Suspicious Packages v. Big in Japan - at 9-0 the Packages are looking to run the table, Big in Japan offers them their biggest hurdle to date. Look for this to be a good game, though I'm not quite ready to sound the upset horn.
Big Lebowskis v. Playmates - The Dude helped lead his team to a 32-17 win last week over a strong Strike Place Market club, but the Playmates don't appear to be afraid of that offense as they look to claim a possible Top 10 spot.
Moderately Sober v. Kansas - Kansas has built a solid team this year and they sport a 4-1 record to show for it, but Mod Sober is FAR better than their 5-4 record indicates, making this match up a classic in the making.
UPSET WATCH:
Don Johnsons v. The Raucus Caucus - While still in the Top 5 at 4-0, the Johnson's shouldn't take the Raucus Caucus squad for granted. Coming off a tough win last week against Moderately Sober, The RC is looking to build momentum into the homestretch of their season.
MISMATCH of the Week:
Team Carebears v. Cap City Brewing Flyers - if you're the carebears, I admire your pluck to go through with a game like this, but sadly, this will be no match.

No mention of the top two run scoring teams in the league matching up today? Should be a barn burner.
ReplyDeleteTechnically, Scared Hitless is the #2 scoring team behind Fat Drunk and Awesome at 23.2 and 25.3 runs a game respectively. Also, the Destroyers, at 20.3 runs a game, are behind the Texas Republic and the Don Johnsons who both average 21.7 runs a game.
ReplyDeleteBut true enough, it will be a good game, just not as exciting as Channel 4 News Team v. Field of Genes.
Technically, I was referring to cumulative runs scored… but your analysis was informative...
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I’m much more impressed with teams that do it over 10 games than 3.
And no sane man would claim it's more exciting than Channel 4 v. Field of Genes.
Big In Japan has defeated your vaunted Dragon Slayers and lost to two good tournament teams (both times by one run). While Suspicious Packages' best win was a one run victory over the #46 team in the league. Calling a BIJ victory an upset? Get real.
ReplyDeleteI disagree about the Mismatch. Our team lost to the fliers in the last play of the game.
ReplyDeleteWe also lost to the Care bears pretty handily (we played horribly.)
Watch out, Cap City.
Bomble, the CBKs played a great game, but we're definitely a better team than during our first few games. Its a rebuilding year for us, but we've played well enough to win & will only get better.
