Divisional Championships, 2009
The eSFL divisional championships are upon us and all four teams remaining were 3 and 4 seeds.
The Frost Furrious Flurries host the D Crownholders in the Global Division while the Texan Bruisers do the same for the Big D team in the Appalachian.
The Global Division has dominated the eSFL since division/conference play began in 2004, leading the Ballistic Bowl tally at 6-0 in title games. Yeah, that means no Appalachian team has ever won a Ballistic Bowl, and this year they hope to change that. If they are going to do so, the Texan Bruisers or Big D teams must find a way to put up 170 plus. This week, the Bruisers should roll past the Big D team by 40 points or more. Hey, they call me the human ouija (weegie) because of my game forecast skills, and this one is easy pickings. Aaron Rodgers and Ray Rice have been wonderfull performers for Big D all season, but with no wide reciever or tight end that can score more than 10 a week, they can forget it. The Bruisers will come at the Big D team with Pierre Thomas, Anquan Boldin, Vernon Davis, and more, With a superior lineup only bad luck can send the Bruisers home in defeat. Final score, Bruisers 164 Big D 127
In the Global Division championship, the D Crownholders get the opportunity to prove that two regular season losses to the Frost club cannot be used as a guage of current team play. The Crownholders entered the playoffs on a three game losing streak, and four of their past five. With a round one win over the favored Temp team quieted most all critics and appear primed for their first ever Ballistic Bowl appearence. The Frost team enetered the post season in a funk as well, going 2-4 down the stretch. Last weeks upset win over the highly favored Bruisermakers surprised the world, but don't be surprised to see them in Ballistic Bowl X fighting for the second championship in team history.
The human ouija (me), sees this as a serious battle that will end with the score seperated by less than three points. the winning team will be the one with Drew Brees at quarterback. The Flurries also have Colston, Williams, and Williams who will play very well. The Crownholders counter with the best running back in the eSFL since Marshall Faulk, but does not have enough assistance from the rest of his team to help pull this one out. Just imagine what the Crownholders could have had they not drafted Clinton Portis in the first round of the draft. My goodnes, had ownership made a decent pick this team could have gone undefeated. Like I said though, this team simply doesn't have enough players to add to Chris Jonson heroics. Final score, Frost 154 Crownholders 151
In the Gunner Bowl, Perdew pounds Boot Hill, final score 197 to 127. Perdew is the best team in the league, just had tough luck early in the season and couldn't recover. Well he recover this week, 110 dollars worth of recovery.
Good luck to all
