GAME OF THE WEEK
Perpetual Dynasty VS. The Real McCoy
Two old school managers face off in this weeks best matchup. PD has won 6 straight games en route to claiming the top spot in the 2006 Buckeyes Division. McCoy has won 3 out of 4 and sits in 3rd overall place. The facts for these teams have remained consistent all year. PD is a strong team who puts up points, but teams he plays are averaging a healthy 120 against him. McCoy has struggled to consistently get points each and every week, but when he plays well, he scores big numbers. This is going to be an extremely close matchup coming down to the wire with both teams having two players on Sunday night. The manager with a strong lead heading into that matchup will more than likely win. McCoy needs a victory more so than PD because he has El Pollo Loco biting at his heels in the 1998 Buckeyes Division. PD has a two game lead in his division, but he does not want to give up any ground. This matchup will be a back and forth brawl.
2. ShowMeYourTDs VS. Tesus Crusades
Playoff implications abound in this matchup. Two teams cast right between each other in the playoff race bash heads this week. Something has to give in this matchup, as both teams have struggled to score in the last couple of weeks. Whomever can find momentum first will more than likely take this matchup. A win for Tesus would silence some doubters, while a win for TDs will further push him into playoff contender discussions. I would expect another low scoring affair between these two teams, but the winner will take what they can get.
3. La Flama Blanca VS. Beaus N Hoes
Two (3-5) teams look to climb back into playoff discussions. The winner here will most certainly still be alive, while the loser may be looking at a consolation birth. It seems both teams are ready to get hot, as some key players look to rebound after sub far first halves of the season. Both teams are looking to build off of victories a week ago. Scratching and clawing into the playoffs brings no shame, just respect.
4. El Pollo Loco VS. Weeden and Weep
This game means more for Loco. He is still in playoff contention. Weeden has a chance to climb back into the race, but a win here does not seem plausible with 3 of his starters on bye. Still it should be a close affair and there are implications on both ends.
5. Brax To Da Max VS. Gothams Reckoning
Best VS worst in this matchup. Even though both teams have guaranteed a victory the anticipation meter rests. Just as we said last week in Brax's matchup, if he wins, its the upset of the year. A loss for Gotham would be surprising and hurtful, but he would still be ahead of his division, and on a collision course with the playoffs.

Week 8 Anticipated Matchups
GAME OF THE WEEK
Tesus Crusades VS. The Real McCoy
Game Theme: SHOW DOWN http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t2GgN_RC7M
Two teams with playoff aspirations meet for a show down in this matchup. McCoy's team was once again inconsistent scoring the least points of the week, a week ago. He hopes that will change when he gets bye week players back this week. Even though he is (4-3), he has scored the least points this year, and he knows he has to keep improving. Tesus bounced back with a win last week, but his team did not perform well. It is unknown how his team will respond after a couple of trades that completely changed the dynamic of his team. This is not a make or break week as far as the playoffs are concerned, but its pretty close. This is a huge game with huge implications. Buckle your chin straps this matchup is gonna be a showdown.
2. Show Me your TDs VS. La Flama Blanca
Game Theme: dead, not out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYwdzYC3uUc&feature=fvwrel
La Flama Blanca needs a kiss to bring him back to life as far as the playoffs are concerned. He is (2-5), but he is getting healthier. His team looks to make a run for the playoffs but he'll need alot of help. TDs is confident. He looks to break a man while he is down, but if he is not careful he will be the one who is destroyed. A win for Tds makes him a front runner for the playoffs, but a defeat makes him continue to scrap.
3. Gothams Reckoning VS. El Pollo Loco
Game Theme: Picture of Dorian Gray. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZkqt4dK6mM
People are now wondering if Gotham made a deal with the devil in order to be unbeaten midway through the season. The facts are that he has an incredible team that averages 135 points a game. Virtually the only thing holding him back from the playoffs is a magical spell in which he looks in a picture and sees his team decrepit and broken. Loco needs to strike now, while aj green is on a bye, but like we have said before, bet on gotham to win until people start playing well against him consistently, or he slows down.
4. Weeden and Weep VS. Beaus N Hoes
Game Theme: HELLLLLOOOO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-R21imckcUE
not much to say, Both teams are struggling. The winner gains some confidence while the other looks towards next week
5. Perpetual Dynasty VS. BraxToDaMax
Game Theme: evil gasm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRnSnfiUI54
If brax wins, its the upset of the year. His team has 1 victory, while PD has won 5 straight. Still, brax nearly beat him earlier in the year so PD is not looking past him.

Week 7 Anticipated Matchups
GAME OFT THE WEEK
ShowMeYourTDs VS The Real McCoy
A game of the week by default headlines this weeks most anticipated matchups. It is the only matchup featuring two teams at or above .500. Unfortunately, this matchup is stricken by bye weeks and injuries. Each team has at least 3 to 4 starters out due to injury or bye week blues. McCoy will look to get production out of his RB's this week with both Mathews and Murray out. TDs is trying to bounce back after a humbling defeat a week ago. This matchup is going to be a dog fight. Look for the victor to scratch their way to a victory. I wouldn't expect a shootout but the score will be close. This is the game of the week.
Beaus N Hoes VS El Pollo Loco
Even though this is a matchup of two (2-4) teams, it is the 2nd most anticipated game of the week for a few reasons. The first reasoning being that the winner of this matchup will be (3-4) and still in the playoff hunt, while the loser will have a high hill to climb at (2-5). Also, this matchup features teams who seem to be evenly matched, making for some fireworks on sunday. Both these teams are desperate. The winner remains relevant, while the loser tries to climb their way back into the playoff conversation.
Perpetual Dynasty VS. La Flama Blanca
Reading between the lines will help people see why this matchup should be anticipated. PD is coming off of 4 straight victories, while Flama has scored at least 120 points in each of his last 3 games, unluckily losing 2 of them. Flama needs his team to continue to develop. Having a healthy Forte and Nicks will help. PD is looking to remain hot and try to beat Flama before he catches his stride. This matchup will be closer than the experts think.
Gothams Reckoning VS Weeden and Weep
A close encounter between these two foes in their first matchup did not help it move up the anticipation boards. Here are the facts. Gotham leads the league in points scored, and has the easiest strength of schedule by a land side. Those two facts do not raise anticipation. For Weeden to have a chance he must hit Gotham on a down week while Weeden's players perform. Do not count Weeden out completely, because anything is possible if Aaron Rodgers explodes for 40.
Tesus Crusades VS Brax To Da Max
This will be a close game. Both teams put up points. But neither team showed up for rivalry week, both on the boards and in their matchup. Anticipation is minimal.

RIVALRY WEEK 6
GAME OF THE WEEK
Tesus Crusades VS. Gothams Reckoning
The unquestioned game of the week is sure to be meaningful. These two managers know each other well. Tesus helped jump start Gotham's fantasy career, while Gotham acted as a mentor for team decisions when Tesus was the Advantageous Hyenas. This fantasy relationship has grown in to a rivalry, and now both managers stand at top their respected divisions. This week is crucial for moral on both sides. While Gotham understands it will be hard to remain unbeaten all year, he certainly doesn't want his rival to bring the first defeat. Tesus is trying to rebound after a tie 2 weeks ago and loss to PD last week. This game is full of questions. Will Tesus continue the trend of teams not coming to play against Gotham, Will Gotham find a way to get points out of his #2 RB, Will Tesus rebound after losing Tony G and Marques C? This matchup is dynamic and fierce. It is certainly well deserving of the top spot on Rivalry Week's game of the week.
2. Perpetual Dynasty VS. El Pollo Loco
Two teams with key bye week losses battle it out. Marshall is out for PD and cam is out for Loco. This rivalry has grown to big heights in a quick amount of time. While they met only a mere 7 months ago, both managers have shown the other that they are for real. Loco has been active, competitive, and tradative (trading), all season long, and he has proven that he was an excellent addition to the fantasy league. PD has continued his historic tradition by doing the things that have taken him to the top in the past. These two managers are trying to climb the ranks in their separate divisions, but for this week the focus is squarely on each other. Just yesterday, a scene occurred at Cosi when Loco seemed to refuse to take the clean dishes to the front of the restaurant. A quick reminder that PD was his commissioner put Loco into place, and the dishes were put where they belong; but Loco did it hesitantly. This was a sign that it was rivalry week, and these two managers want to throw down.
3. The Real McCoy VS. Brax To Da Max
Two guys who lived together for 4 years duke it out on Sunday in this rivalry game. It is a rivalry that was born through many weekend sporting events like flag football, basketball, and ultimate Frisbee. These two have constantly been trying to prove their dominance over the other, specifically McCoy yelling at Brax. Each matchup was close and competitive and that's what's expected to happen this weekend as well. While Brax's record may not look good, he has the toughest schedule in the league, and continues to put up points each week. For McCoy, he is hoping to have his players play the same way they did a week ago, which might be more difficult do to harder matchups. Either way you slice it, its going to be a tough game. The winner will have bragging rights.
4. ShowMeYourTDs VS. Beaus N Hoes
Like the previous discussed matchup, these two managers have shared the same roof. This rivalry was spawned during countless match ups between the Steelers and Patriots over the years. Both managers have always been confident about their favorite team and both guys are now confident about their fantasy teams. TD's is looking strong and hopes his team stays hot, while Beaus is trying to get things going after a (1-4) start. For more info on this rivalry check out TD's team page.
5. Weeden and Weep VS. La Flama Blanca
Two guys with a history clash. The biggest incident between these two managers happened at a Pirates VS. Braves baseball game a couple years back. Sitting only 7 rows behind home plate, Blanca caught a foul ball. It was incredible, a purely magical feat. But, not to be out done, Weeden wanted a ball as well. A chance came late in the game when a foul ball was hit directly to Weeden. He stretched his arm and reached for the ball but it skidded off of his hand and into the seats behind him. It was a destructive blow to his confidence. Ever since then Weeden has had an inferiority complex when thinking of Blanca. The match up on the field will be close, but each team needs to step up in order to start winning more games.
Tesus Crusades VS. Gothams Reckoning

Most Anticipated Matchups Week 5
GAME OF THE WEEK
Perpetual Dynasty VS. Tesus Crusades (DG)
Two hot teams face each other in this clash. Tesus is unbeaten while PD has won two games in a row on miracle Monday night performances. PD has been wheeling and dealing all season, and last week it paid off with 145 points. This could be the time when he goes on a roll. On the other hand, Tesus has been great all year, and is not looking to slow down for this week. This divisional matchup is sure to have fireworks. Neither manager has their starting quarterback's in the lineup due to bye's, but their starting RB's could be lethal. There is also a great defensive matchup between these teams, with PD starting Chicago and Tesus starting Houston. This game could go either way. The key will be which team has the most consistent effort. Both teams want to head into rivalry week on a good note, and whoever wins this matchup could be looked at as a juggernaut team going forward. This is the GAME OF THE WEEK.
2. ShowMeYourTDs VS. Brax To Da Max (DG)
Two teams looking to make a statement face off when TDs battles Brax. Brax is coming off of a devastating loss to PD, while TDs enjoyed the best point total from a week ago. TDs is feeling confident after making moves to really upgrade his roster and Brax should feel confident after a 138 point week. The fact is both theses teams went out and balled last week, and there could be points a plenty in this one. Look for a high scoring affair with the winner being the manager who puts in the right players to maximize their starting lineup potential.
3. La Flama Blanca VS. EL Pollo Loco
Two under appreciated teams duel it out when Flama takes on Loco. Loco is coming off of a very nice performance a week ago, scoring 146. Blanca happened to run into TDs last week, or he could have gotten away with a win. While the story lines are not very enthralling, the sheer magnitude of two teams ready to stake a claim in the playoff push sends this matchup to a more anticipated level. Do not be shocked if one of theses teams explodes for a huge week.
4. Gothams Reckoning VS. Beaus N Hoes (DG)
What a difference 2 weeks can make. 2 weeks ago this was the most anticipated matchup, but things have changed. Gotham has steam rolled his competition leaving nothing but shrapnel and dust behind him, while Beaus has fallen to (1-3). Even worse for Beaus, he is without Calvin Johnson, his star player; but he added Brandon Lloyd to try and soften the blow. In my opinion, this was the easiest matchup to select, and judging by an (8-0) voter differential all other managers agree. But, do not sleep on Beaus they are an extremely talented team, and Gothams magical Thursday night hysteria will not be a factor in this matchup. Still, as far as anticipation goes, this matchup is near the bottom.
5. The Real McCoy VS. Weeden and Weep (DG)
Anticipation is not the opportune word for this matchup. Weeden and Weep has lost 2 devastating games already this year, and McCoy is coming off of the lowest point total from a week ago. The biggest problem with both teams is consistency Each team can explode at any moment, but they're both capable of low scoring as well. It is uncertain which team will show up for either side, but bet your sweet bippy that which ever team figures out how to stay consistent, will put their teams on a collision course for the playoffs. This week however its a wait and see.
Perpetual Dynasty VS. Tesus Crusades (DG)
Two hot teams face each other in this clash. Tesus is unbeaten while PD has won two games in a row on miracle Monday night performances.
