The M. Takers completed the season sweep of the Quiet Storm and moved up into 2nd place (a spot that has not been too lucky lately). The Takers were led by a nice 1-2 punch at running back and an efficient 100% coaching efficiency. The Storm missed 9 extra points out of Trent Green. A Green start would had us going to tie-breakers and the Storm would have lost on tie-breaks by 1. The Pre-Game Hype:The M. Takers and the Quiet Storm both need the "W" this week. The Takers have a bit more of a margin for error, but at this point every game counts and the Storm has the revenge factor from week 5. The Predictions/History: Spock: M. Takers 48 Quiet Storm 42 Week 5: M. Takers 65 Quiet Storm 10 Spock's Predictions based on Points For, Points Against and Winning % |

The "Game of the Week" honors go to the contest between the Black & Blue Attack and the Good Fellas. The Good Fellas split the season series with a win over the Black & Blue, as Manning could not overcome a 31pt. lead. The Fellas were led by a balanced scoring attack as every starter scored a 6 or a 12 except for their ST. The Black & Blue lost their 2nd place spot, which seems to be a very slippery position this year. The Pre-Game Hype:The Black & Blue Attack will try to complete the sweep against the Good Fellas, and keep their championship hopes alive and well. The Fellas need a streak of wins to be a factor in the end. The Predictions/History: Spock: Black & Blue 56 Good Fellas 53 Week 5: Black & Blue 78 Good Fellas 68 Spock's Predictions based on Points For, Points Against and Winning % |

The Jelly Beans avenged their week 5 loss to the Black Revenge. The Beans are "enfuego" (to borrow a phrase from Dan Patrick). They have won 7 in arrow since their 1-5 start. They have scored at least 50 during the stretch and have won 3 of the last 7 helmets including this week. This Holmes and Moss covered a mediocre QB performance. The Revenge have given up over 80 in each of the last 3 games and have faced the "Helmet" in all 3 weeks. You need an all-star t eam to win against odds like that. Throw in the loss when scoring over 100 and methinks the Death Valley patrons have failed to pay due homage to the scheduling Gods. The Pre-Game Hype:The red-hot Jelly Beans take on the Black Revenge who are working on their 3rd defensive coordinator this season. The Revenge won easily in week 5, but the Beans have been on a roll and the Revenge have been giving up points galore. The Predictions/History: Spock: Jelly Beans 53 Black Revenge 50 Week 5: Black Revenge 58 Jelly Beans 27 Spock's Predictions based on Points For, Points Against and Winning % |

The Dream Team completed the season sweep of the Sharks with Lamar Smith and Chambers to spare on Monday. Neither team got what they were expecting from the QB spot. The Sharks running game was good, but their WR's and PK came up small. The Dream Team steady performers like Rod Smith and Tomlinson threw goose eggs. The "W" can gloss over all kinds of coaching mistakes. The Pre-Game Hype:The Dream Team looks to complete the season sweep against the Sharks and start to secure the Championship. The Sharks are hoping to jump back in the thick of things, their point total is killing them.

The Hammer Heads avenged their week 5 loss to the Bull Dogs and won the battle to stay out of the basement. The Heads were led by first time starter MVP Todd Bouman with 39 points. 39 points in one start and 57 in 5 quarters, Dante who? The Bull Dogs benched a truck load of points. The Charger double-bubble instead of the Patriot double-bubble alone would have made this game interesting on Monday. The Pre-Game Hype:The Hammer Heads and Bulldogs take on each other in a game that is more about pride than anything else. The Dogs won the first meeting and the Heads want to avoid a Bulldog sweep. The Predictions/History: Spock: Hammer Heads 43 Bull Dogs 42 Week 5: Bull Dogs 51 Hammer Heads 40 Spock's Predictions based on Points For, Points Against and Winning % |
