I am trying to keep my mind off that game at the top. I need to make sure my team doesn't ease up right now, and California has been moving the ball enough they could take the Toads down.

[Matt]

We absolutely need to win this game. Anything less would be a shameful fall from grace. I'm hoping we can get our swagger back and keep the NC east guys at bay.

The Phantom comeback is playing out well so far. We've gone from mathematically in the hunt to realistically in the hunt if we get a win this week coupled with a Newark loss.

Of course there's a very scary new face in the Bulldogs backfield as of this week.

We travel to LA. It looks like they have been up and down this season. Every game is a playoff game for the TigerHawks. So this is a must win.

[Jave]

The season is over for us but we NEED to get a win this week!! No excuses, this team needs a lift badly and beating the Beasts would go a long way to restoring some pride in Oakland.

Looks like quite a few of us showed up for the party, but no one brought the beer.

[Cringer]

I think you have had enough beer for all of us this morning.

[Suicane]

On it's way, just woke up. sowwwy.

[Warhammer]

If we had managed to win a few of these games earlier in the season, we night not be where we are right now...

[Suicane]

I don't think i've ever been as sick watching the finish of a game. Knowing this is my season. This is my season. Blah.

[Suicane]

I need to get within 1 of Murfreesboro in the next 2 weeks. A sliver of light, but i'll take it.

[Cringer]

California put up a good fight like I figured. Lathum is indeed happy to be starting and in a system he is excelling in. Short shit passes that take advantage of LBs followed up by some long passes that really surprise you they are completed on a regular basis. Their defense is pretty much crap though, HA has that one right as well. Too bad my run game didn't agree and sucked or I could have controlled the clock more. Instead we had to out pass the Heroes and thankfully we did.

Too bad Portland couldn't take down Texas, as that might just crush my hopes of winning a 5th straight division title. Even if I knock off Texas next week I would need them to lose one more game while I win out. Not sure that happens. If we both lose another, or both win out we end up in a tie and he has the division record for the tie breaker win.

I had a gut feeling The Phantoms were going to hand me my ass. Great game on their end. What made the game unbearable to watch was the fact that the Ai decided that my best weapon (rb Osbourne) should all of a sudden SPLIT carries with my backup RB. Half the f-in carries. Out of the blue. He wasn't injured, wasnt tired. UGH.

And remind me to get a head coach who will somehow help the players stop getting penalties anytime they make a catch of more than 12 yards. :-)

ps - ugh.
