Don't take that the wrong way, I meant it as you calling your opponents an SOB because getting angry seems to fire you up.

Unsubscribed from the 'Good Game' Thread earlier to not be ruined on result. I'm good either way. Took a lot to put the work in and I did. I'll take my L, if I do and come back hard again next year. Looks like I'd have CJ or Wart next.

One stipulation, though, if my elite WR gets injured and I can't effectively put him in there next game - I'd think long and hard about abandoning. Too much work put in for the next guy to get a free win.

American Conference Divisional Round

Honolulu Hawaiians (10-7) @ Houston Gamblers (14-2)

Point Spread: Houston -9

Honolulu: Offense 9th Defense 23rd
Houston: Offense 1st Defense 20th

Last Playoff Appearance: Honolulu 2003 Houston 2004
Playoff Records: Honolulu 1-11 Houston 39-15 (8-0 World Bowl)

Head to Head: Houston beat Honolulu 45-14 Week 15 of this season. Houston is 2-0 vs Honolulu in the post season.

Injuries: Honolulu 4 probable, 2 questionable Houston 3 probable

Prediction: Houston 34 Honolulu 20

Honolulu finally gets their first playoff win and their reward is a trip to Houston to face the top seeded Gamblers, good luck Slick. I'd love to see the Hawaiians win again but I can't pick it, especially since Houston has the #1 offense in the league.

Oklahoma Outlaws (15-2) @ Portland Storm (13-4)

Point Spread: Oklahoma -2

Oklahoma: Offense 2nd Defense 10th
Portland: Offense 16th Defense 3rd

Last Playoff Appearance: Oklahoma 2004 Portland 2004
Playoff Records: Oklahoma 13-12 (1-1 World Bowl) Portland 30-20 (4-3 World Bowl)

Head to Head: Oklahoma beat Portland 24-6 Week 5 of this season. Portland is 2-0 vs Oklahoma in the post season.

Injuries: Oklahoma 6 probable, 2 questionable Portland 8 probable, 3 I.R.

Prediction: Oklahoma 16 Portland 14

This is a coin flip game but I'm picking Oklahoma for 2 reasons...they beat Portland already this season and it kind of feels like Oklahoma and Houston need to play each other 1 more time to settle things.

I wouldn't be surprised if Orlando wins but I'm picking Philadelphia. No particular reason for the pick other than the Bell are the #1 seed.

New Orleans VooDoo (14-3) @ Baltimore Stars (15-2)

Point Spread: Baltimore -1

New Orleans: Offense 4th Defense 9th
Baltimore: Offense 10th Defense 6th

Last Playoff Appearance: New Orleans 2004 Baltimore 2004
Playoff Records: New Orleans 25-20 (1-5 World Bowl) Baltimore 17-14 (0-3 World Bowl)

Head to Head: New Orleans beat Baltimore 34-9 Week 6 of this season. New Orleans is 2-1 vs Baltimore in the post season.

Injuries: New Orleans 7 probable, 1 questionable, 1 doubtful Baltimore 2 probable, 2 questionable

Prediction: New Orleans 24 Baltimore 19

New Orleans are the champs until they get knocked off. New Orleans beat Baltimore handily earlier this season, and the VooDoo easily won their wildcard game while the Stars struggled to win their game. I do expect Baltimore to play better than they did back in Week 6 and they have the talent/coaching to beat the champs, but I can only pick one team.

Houston feels no desire to settle things with Oklahoma and feel a 3rd game between us isn't neccessary.

Portland vs Houston
Or
Portland vs Hawaiians

Now those games are interesting!!!
