November 2, 2008 Predictions

Round 1

“No Fear” (3-2) vs. “Hell’s Bells” (4-1)

Despite Hell’s Bells' near-perfect season, No Fear is going to make a comeback and take the win. With the help of some good popping, Royal Blue will work Silver’s zone D and run down the field on defense time and time again. After suffering two losses last week as a result of a crappy team turnout (3 dudes, 5 dudettes), No Fear is hungry for a win and will stop at nothing to wring Hell’s Bells. And of course my affiliation with this team has no bearing on my prediction. No Fear by 15. Ok ok, by 3.

“Red Scare” (3-2) vs. “4!” (2-3)

This is anyone’s game. 4! Is feeling good after coming off a win against No Fear and showing 32 Colts who's boss. White will need to work hard to turn the disk over on defense and stay away from the footraces. However, Red has to look out for White's momentum. With their taste of victory, 4! May prove to be a fource to be reckoned with. Despite a strong line-up on red, my money is on white. 4! by 1.

“7 Seas” (1-4) vs. “32 Colts” (4-1)

I think this match up speaks for itself. 7 Seas was only able to capture a win against a predominantly female, practically savage No Fear, and it only came with a good fight. Black has been a powerhouse that has worked together time and time again. Their loud cheers will drown the 7 Seas in their own water. In order to stay afloat, Navy is going to need to work together to move the disk upfield. Some people say 100 passes is impossible, but that’s not saying Navy shouldn’t try. Black takes it by 4.

“Golden Girls” (1-4) vs. “Green Goblin” (2-3)

With Green Goblin’s deep attempts, the Golden Girls should expect to do some running and jumping. However, if they can put the pressure on Green, Gold can rest assured that the bombs land a little off target. It's time for the Golden Girls to get in sync and start moving, and this matchup against a trigger-happy Green is the perfect opportunity. It's going to be a weak struggle to the top, but the Golden Girls will be the victorious alliteration. The Green Goblins chivalrously give the win to the ladies by 3.

Round 2: All-Star Game

These teams are stacked with the best, most enthusiastic, skilled players in the league. What is most important here is not who wins, but rather the opportunity for some great ultimate. Expect to see impossible passes, deep bombs, great aerials, and some fancy footwork. Personally, I want to see some great zone defense and equally as good offensive handling. Hammers, anyone? With the assumption that both teams have been matched up fairly, it's hard to predict who is going to take this win. But if the number of players who have listed a nickname on the roster is any indication of self-defined greatness, it'll be a sweep by Phil's "Nicknames are Intimidating" Light.
