LUCKILY FOR THE LIONS THE PRIZEFIGHTERS WILL BE RESTING THEIR STARTERS :)

lol. i dont even think it matters.....Lions are not strong this year without Smith at RB1....although RB Barbecue Sauce showed some promise in his first game starting over RB Jackson "Fumblemania" James

i would love to see a breakdown of the playoff scenario in this situation. im not sure Strongbows are eligible considering their conference record (4-7). also not sure about the Spires since they have a 2-4 division record (but not sure if division record matters in wild card tie breaker). the teams with a 6-5 conference record are Heroes & Stampede and Stampede defeated the Heroes in regular season play so i believe that if the Stampede defeat the 4-11 86ers in Johannesburg they are in

Go 86ers!!!!

but then if the 86ers win and the Heroes defeat the Deities in Ulaanbaatar, where the temperature will be close to zero degrees, then the Heroes will be in

Go Deities!!!!

so then if both the Stampede and Heroes lose and Lions, Manta Rays, & Owls win there will be 3 teams with identical records (total, division and conference) to come down to a tie breaker, which according to NFL (which i believe MFN uses same) it would come down to "Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four" and after that "Strength of victory in all games"

anyone wanna take a stab at it? think Spires division record might not be a factor so if they win it would be four teams with identical record

I am just excited with the Choppers @Guachos winner takes the division. I am also pulling for the Guazues to win and put 3 teams from South American division in the playoffs. Not as bad *** as the 2080 season when all 4 made it .. but still pretty cool

His upbringing as a Chicago Butcher will serve him well. We just didn't have space on the roster for him anymore.

That's strange! He was definitely at 217 after the preseason.

Of course we dream of playing in the postseason, but arriving in the last game with a chance was already an incredible feat after the 0-6 start.

similar thing happen to me.
I turned a 2-6 first half into a 9-6 and a play off spot.
The team had a radical turn when i changed the QB and brought in Ricardo "Homer" Simpson on the controles.
