Week 5 picks

JA here with your week 5 (week 3 for A divsision) picks.

Starting to really get the feel for this season now as we get further into it.

Looking for a big week here.

Maxwell Heights:

Hounds v. OPC:

Good battle here between the top two teams in the "B". Both teams have looked great in their 3 wins and terrible in their one loss. Historically though the Hounds have been the better team. Give me the Hounds to win a close one.

Bull Dogs v. Raiders:

Should be a pretty easy win for the Bull Dogs over a Raiders team that still seems to be struggling to find themselves early on this season. Give the Bull Dogs to win big.

All Blacks v. Raiders:

Always the question about which All Black team will show up. Both teams will be on the back end of a double header but the All Blacks will have a game to rest (or tighten up depending on your train of thought). I like the All Blacks in this one.

Eastdale:

All Blacks v. Steelers:

Steeler just look so good this year assuming they don't have any attendance issues I see them taking this one against the All Blacks. Although I will say that the All Blacks tend to play to the level of their opponent so you never know. Still give me the Steelers.

Steelers v. Rogues:

Tough scheduling break for the Steelers having to play the Rogues on the back end of a double header. I think if the Steelers aren't tired then it's close but if their attendance is low and they have to play ironman in game 1 then they wont be able to keep up with the Rogues. Give me the Rogues to win a close one.

Buckeyes v. Rogues:

Can the Buckeyes take advantage of the scheduling break of getting the Rogues after a tough game against the Steelers. I'm going to say no but that it will be a close one. Give me the Rogues to win 2 on this day.

Central:

OTFL v. Untouchables

Wow you just never know what to expect from the Untouchables week in and week out. But you do know what to expect from the OTFL team. So for that reason I have to go with the Untouchables until OTFL show me something.

Mustangs v. Cowboys

Our first look at the Mustangs this season. I see them taking the B division by storm and it starts with the Cowboys. Give me the Mustangs to win big.

Mustangs v. Hawks

I'm tempted to take the Hawks to win this one over a tired Mustangs squad but i just can't bring myself to do it. Give me the Mustangs to start off their season 2 - 0.

My top four picks will be Bull Dogs over Raiders; Steelers over All Blacks; Untouchables over OTFL; Mustangs over Cowboys.

There you have it. Let me know your thoughts.

RE: Week 5 picks

i need a come back.....

Maxwell Heights:

Hounds v. OPC:

what a great way to start off the morning... its no secret i heart me the hounds... AND - i already did piss off a cock or two by not including them in my top teams prediction after the last set of games... so do i think OPC will be fighting with ammunition? yes. do i think that will help? sure... but not enough...who will win? give me an H... give me an O... give me a U-N-D-S!!

Bull Dogs v. Raiders:

Bull Dogs.

All Blacks v. Raiders:

I like what Ive been seeing (hearing.... ) about the all blacks this year... i will take the all blacks to win in a no brainer

Eastdale:

All Blacks v. Steelers:

I know i JUST said above that i like what ive been hearing about the all blacks.. but.. the steelers are the current definition of perfection... sorry all blacks... tough start to the morning (but youll have a turn in fate for your 2nd game against the raiders)

Steelers v. Rogues:

hrmmmmmmmmmm... hrmm hrmmmmmmmmm... im torn..... my gut says the rogues... HOWEVER... i dont want to pick the same as my nemesis JA this entire week's worth of games.. so being as this will be the closest matchup of the day (theoretically)... i will waiver and put the steelers to take this one... in a close one.

Buckeyes v. Rogues:

i agree with JA.... buckeyes will catch a bit of a break... and i have heard they had an impressive weekend at the tournament 2 weeks ago.. ah hell... why not... lets do another upset and try my luck with the buckeyes taking this one....... i know its a stretch... but im in a gambling mood this morning... seemingly... dont disappoint, buckeyes!


Central:

OTFL v. Untouchables

hard to say which untouchables will come out..... yes, they are a good team.. BUT.. they got destroyed by the hounds last week of games... you know what... give me the OTFL... this is even more a stretch than the buckeyes taking out the rogues.. but goddamnit OTFL.. you are due for a breakout game... i may be borderline crazy... for this...... well.. no... i am..... good luck OTFL...

Mustangs v. Cowboys

our mysterious mustangs come out to play....... not sure who their roster holds... but im sure their team rep wont bring about disappointment... ill take me the mustangs.

Mustangs v. Hawks

scott... scott.. scott... what am i to do about this game? if i say the hawks will win, i know you wont... if i say you wont.. then you will.. so typical of our marriage.. alas... again going contrary to sir JA.. i will pick the hawks on this one...


what a hell of a week.. a lot of underdogs im cheering for.... hopefully it will work in my favor.

good luck (but only to the teams ive picked).

again - i wont give my top 4 picks.. :) but i have already submitted them to make it legit...
