It's about time... the NFL is kicking off tonight and we get to start back up on Saturday. I can't wait to get back out there. Fall is one of those easy going fun seasons. We only have 16 total teams this season; an upper and lower division, but that doesn't mean we won't have great football.
Contrary to what some had heard, the Untouchables are back to defend their recent title. Speaking of Champs, the reigning Spring Champs that took the Untouchables down finally are back... that's All Madden for those of you who don't know. We have the Express, Tarheels (makeshift of Jacked Up, Money, and some other guys), Danger is back with a motivated Shermanator, the Victors are back...although I don't know who is on this team... and finally trying to put their collective money where their mouth is, TTB round out the upper division.
In the lower division, we also have eight teams. Some regulars, Hit Squad and Hitmen... you also have a newer team in Balls Deep, two other brand new teams Karma and the Regulators, and then you have Bulldawgs, Warriors (XFactor), and Closet Flags. The Hit Squad or Balls Deep are my favorites in this division.
On to this weekends games... Let's just have a few quick hits:
8:30am:
Pain vs Express: I hate picking teams for week 1. You never know what to expect. Pain had a nice run a couple seasons ago but have faded since then. Express has some great athletes but never seem to be there in the end. I am going to pick Express in this one though... (Express -4)
Warriors (XFactor) vs Closet Flags: A friend of mine QB's the Flags and he has a decent arm... will he be football ready though? He plays a lot of baseball and softball in the summer. We scrimmaged XFactor last weekend and they have a decent squad. If they can or will simplify their game they will be decent. I am picking the new guys. (XFactor -2)
9:45am:
Danger vs Victors: Mike doesn't do Danger any favors with a warm up game this season. However, I am not sure what to expect from Bill and the squad this season. But I do know that even though I like Danger's tenacity, I think the Victors take this one... (Victors -3.5)
Bulldawgs vs Hit Squad: This Brady didn't find a new squad in the off-season. He still plays for DJ's crew and they have to win this game... in fact, Hit Squad can't lose one game this season. No TTB and no Shire. This is your season Hit Squad. No pressure (Hit Squad -7.5)
11:00:
All Madden vs Tarheels: We'reeeee baaaaackkk... I don't want to be biased on here and I have no idea who is on the Tarheels team, but we are ecstatic to have our squad back this season. With that being said, we're missing some guys this week and I don't know who the QB is for Tarheels. (All Madden -5)
Karma vs Regulators: This is kind of funny. I am pretty sure this would be an inter-squad scrimmage if it happened two months ago. Karma, although they have some new guys, used to be on G4B. The Regulators have the other half of G4B from my knowledge. Should be a decent game though. (even)
That's it this week. Welcome back fellas!!!
Do you secretly love DJ or Brady? You always pick them over all of us each season & each season they do nothing. 2 loses so far-- so much for winning every game. Hitmen & Deep Balls are the 2 teams to beat this fall.
ReplyDeleteFrom your comment, I would assume that you are on the Bulldawgs? Regardless, I will say that prior to the season starting (when I wrote this post)I liked Hit Squad's chances. They have been a consistent team for a couple of seasons now. However, as you pointed out, they are 0-2. At this point, if I can write a post this week, I might not be so high on them. Thanks for reading.
