Congrads Greg...that's a nice playoff run that was snapped this season. I'm sure you will be back next season.
Two streaks I still have going is 12 straight seasons with a winning record (7-9 in 1976) and we've never lost double digit games, ever. Still wish we were still playing though.
Good luck to the 12 teams that are still playing, the playoffs should be a fun ride.
For the 1st time in a long, long time - We both hope to beat each other tonight...... Good luck, 4343. If it's not a blowout by either team, expect a GG post from me. It's long overdue, even for bitter rivals.
Well, that was tragic. I got some serious work to do next season.
Good luck going forward, 4343. Maybe you can bring a title to the division.
Memphis is still the Champions until someone beats them. Michigan stopped the Showboat's long winning streak last year and the Panthers have the league's best record. I think the injuries finally catch up to Memphis and Michigan slips past them in a nailbiter of a finish. _______________________________________________________________________________
Denver destroyed Cleveland in the Wildcard round, but Houston is a different story. The Gamblers seem to turn it up a notch in the playoffs, although Denver is responsible for 1 of the 3 Houston playoff defeats. The Gold won't be intimidated, but I think the playoff savvy Gamblers pull out a close game.
New Orleans has lost 4 playoff games in a row, all to New Jersey, but the Generals are on the couch this year. The VooDoo are also at home after a BYE instead of going on the road Wildcard Weekend. The 14-2 record is also the best record in VooDoo history and I expect New Orleans to handle business at home. Not to take away from the excellent turnaround season of Orlando but the VooDoo look primed for a deep playoff run. _______________________________________________________________________________
Playoff Record:Baltimore 7-5 New York 3-4 Last Playoff Appearance:Baltimore 1986 New York 1981
Head to Head: No playoff games/Baltimore won 22-17 in 1988
Injuries:Baltimore 4 probable, 3 questionable, 1 doubtful New York 5 probable, 1 doubtful
Prediction:Baltimore 20 New York 17
The Stars will win the game. I think Baltimore's #1 defense will be the difference, though New York has a top 5 defense of their own. Baltimore is 3-5 in the playoffs against non Washington teams and New York is certainly capable of pulling off the upset at home. I have to pick somebody, and I think the momentum of Baltimore will win out in the end.
The top 2 seeds in the American Conference meet for the right to go to World Bowl XV. Houston has the playoff experience but Michigan is the giant killer, so who will win and why? I can see either team winning this game and I expect the final margin to be within one score. The Gamblers have the experience and health edge, and I believe that health will enable them to pull through in the 4th quarter. _______________________________________________________________________________
Baltimore Stars (14-4) @ New Orleans VooDoo (15-2)
Head to Head: No playoff games/New Orleans beat Baltimore 25-17 in 1988
Injuries:Baltimore 3 probable, 3 questionable New Orleans 7 probable, 1 questionable, 1 Out
Prediction:New Orleans 22 Baltimore 21
Both teams overcame double digit deficits to reach this point, but just one can advance to World Bowl XV. New Orleans won the regular season game and I think they pull out a nailbiter here as well. Baltimore is about big plays, and they will hit some, but Jon Snow has also thrown a lot of interceptions. I think the difference in this game is the 2 point conversions the VooDoo like to use in the first half. I'll say the halftime score is 19-7 VooDoo on 2 TDs, 2 two point conversions and a FG. Baltimore will take the lead late 21-19 before the VooDoo drive for the game winning FG in the final 2 minutes.
