WEEK 1 SCEDULE
Rhode Island Dynamic vs.
Koko's X-Cats
This one is tight all the way with Peyton Manning leading the Dynamic and Larry Johnson leading the X-Cats. What it really comes down to is how Drew BLedsoe performs for the X-Cats and how Corey Dillion performs the the Dynamic.
FIRST Force vs.
Cooney Quest
Both teams feature running quarterbacks but FIRST Force features a real quarterback in Daunte Culpepper while the Quest have a glorified running back taking snaps in Micheal Vick. Shaun ALexander and Thomas Jones is where the Quest will be a real threat. FIRST Force needs Domanic RHodes to produce.
Silver Lobos vs.
Eat My Shorts
EMS features the ever deadly Ladanian Thomlinson and Duece McCallister who is comming off a major knee injury. They also feature the underrated Trent Green who could surpise some people. Silver Lobos hope Carson Palmer is all the way back or they're basically dead in the water.
The Very Fast Blitz vs.
Cromer Smash!
The Smash need to fix up their roster but so long as they have TIki Barber they are dangerous. Not sure to expect from Willie Parker. The Blitz have players who are variables. They could be explosive or they could easily be duds. I certainly wouldn't trust my fortunes to Brunell and who knows what Westbrook can do?
Amazin' Blue vs.
Nor Cal Crushers
Amazin' Blue is hamstrung using Domanic Davis who is on the IR. Tatum Bell has to split carries in Denver and Leftwich is incinsistent. The Crushers will have Clinton Portis ready to kick butt on Monday night and Kurt Warner gets to throw all over a helpless 49ers defense.
Boiler 1529 vs.
T-Hawks
The T-Hawks are going to rely on the arm of Jake Delhomme and the hands and feet of Steve Smith. That's tough going up against Boiler 1529's combo of Cadillac Willaims and Warrick Dunn.
Meatball Artists vs.
RPI10
Meatball Artists are going full bore with three running backs but who knows how much Fred Taylor has left? How long til Julius Jones ends up on the bench? Stephen Jackson could be big though. RPI10 counters with RUdi Johnson running all over the CHiefs defense and Eli Manning should play well against the Colts.
sigmakittens vs.
Evil Trav's Minions
ETM has McNabb hungry to make a big comeback without TO publicly dissing him in the lockeroom every Sunday but I'm not sure if Frank GOre is what I'd call a good bet for your running game. THe kitties have a pair of dissapointing backs looking to rebound i Willis McGahee and Lamont Jordan. If Plummer doesn't betray them they could win this one.
{} vs.
Indiana Ironmen
(How the heck do you pronounce {} ?}). Ronnie Brown and Mike Bell are their best bet to survive but going with Kyle Boller is a huge mistake. The Ironmen are putting alot of faith in AHman Green and how effective is Tom Brady going to be without Deion Branch?
stantheman vs.
Stevies Scapegoats
OK this one is weird both teams have turnover prone quarterbacks ( BRett Farve for the SCapegoats and Aaron Brooks for the stantheman) and part time running backs. The SCapegoats are hoping that Edgerring James blows up big for them but I don't trust that o-line. Sould be OK this week.
