Round 6 begins this coming week - now the games really start to become interesting. This round will leave in its wake broken hearts, dashed hopes, and the start a many drinking binges to help ease the agony of defeat.

Among the premium games this coming week are featured the following teams: (Note: there will be no direct Div I matchups this week, but strong teams will face off against each other)

My favorite matchup pits

23 II Ruffian vs Beanz Odyssey I 3

Followed closely by these two teams

35 II Perfervid Iron-Mills vs Lawrence Park Panthers I 2

Other top 100 ranked teams going against each other are:

48 II Murfs Blue Devils vs the ragin stajans I 4
54 II Newmarket West Siders vs Syndicalists' BC I 11

In the "Sucks to be him" category of games - we find the following titanic matchups

225 III Amish Rodeo Clowns vs Pszczyna Team I 1 (At home no less)

And I am throwing this in because it also brings tears to my eyes (Or is it the allergies):

13 II Toronto Knockouts vs TheXmens III 241

Good luck to all this coming week

This week starts separating the wannabees from the heavy hangers - no more fooling around this is it. A few lucky teams got the last of the bot teams but the rest will have to decide whether to tank league games or cup games especially since the winner of the next match will play again on Thursday. This is the week guys/gals it's time to go home or lay it on the line.

As expected there are a few games that will produce some drama:
Foremost is yours truly going up against the Headless Thomson Gunners in a Div I matchup - Didn't expect to play a Div I rival so soon, but I don't pick them, so I gotta play him??!!

17 I East-End Screaming Goombas B.C. vs Headless Thompson Gunners I 29

Other interesting matchups are the following Div II rivals:

23 II Toronto Ravens vs Laval Giants II 6 (Might even be better than the game I'm involved in!!)

These two games matches inter-divisional teams from Div I & II going against each other and should prove interesting: No give-me games here

15 II Canuckleheads vs Saskatoon Storm I 32
33 II Squalor Super Sonics vs Pszczyna Team I 1

Other top 100 opponents going against each other are as follows:

54 II Sock Bears vs Auto-Pilot Inc. II 37
14 II Toronto Knockouts vs Webfoots II 36
53 II Montreal Strippers vs Quebec Pugs I 9
87 III The Lynx vs Jugglers II 24
5 I Superfreakys vs Squares II 50
98 III Toronto Råptors vs DR34M Hakeem II 31
11 II keswick Killers vs The Big Green III 78
97 III CARTOON HEROS vs Syndicalists' BC I 10
85 III BasketballIQ vs Big ballerz II 16
4 I the ragin stajans vs Rouge et Or II 61
2 I Lawrence Park Panthers vs Bright Shadow III 66
96 III Debussys Darts vs Quebec Gators II 58

Although there are no clear cut "Sucks to be him" game this week - I guess the following is as close as it gets

3 I Beanz Odyssey vs Frynoodle III 95 (Your name says it all - Try Deepfried Noodle)

As usual - good luck to all and kick butt!! (especially to Frynoodle - if he wins I'm going out and buying a lottery ticket)

Well, game at home and not against Naismith team..... could be worse but I think I would enjoy the game with reamining bot a bit more :/

Anyway, not making the same mistake last season though. Going to properly tank a league game and throw all the best players in the cup

I am sure Super Sonics would rather play a bot than you - I guess it sucks to be him this week. At this point anyone who plays a top 10 team is not very happy. :`-(

True on all points. But at this stage most of the teams can still pull it off with CT (including you, and possibly Super Sonics (lets hope not))

haahaa, the only way to win this match is, if I got the PIN of Beanz Odyssey :`(

BC- King will win their next game because thsy have a couple 20000 players even though they're are bot.

Tough draw. But you are correct this one will be tough for you to pull off.

aaaaagh so close to beating LPP off by one point.......good game though.

Great game Pszcyna, I knew the smart play for me was to save my enthusiasm and walk away from this one, but hey I do not get to play the top team in the country everyday so at the last minute I thought I owed it to my guys to leave it all on the floor. Up until halftime it didn't look so bad, but then things got out of hand in a hurry. Best of luck in the tournament moving forward, I'll be cheering for you, (it is always better to lose to the guy that no one else could beat either).

P.S. sooner or later the Squalor Sonics will make it to Naismith, and I promise to one day put a mark in your loss column.

Haha, I am sure you will. My team is not going to be so strong anymore.
Thanks, appreciate it. i was wondering what CT was about. Luckily I didnt choose to rest my players for this game. Good luck for the rest of the season!
