Magic Pool vs Brit Pool
The thing with the MP squad, is so many of their players are overrated, but at the same time, the rest are underrated. Either way, MP have plenty of good shooters that can nip ya if you're not paying attention. One who has been paying attention, is the HA of BP. When asked if he believes his league is over-hyped, "yes" wasted no time appearing in the conversation. Should he worry? To a degree since as it is we place BP on a pedestal high above our wildest imaginations, but that doesn't mean they can't get there.
Wildcard - Best banker? Drill__. Who to stay away from? UIC10 ED-MVP Jeremy.
Prediction - 3-2 BP
Straight Shots vs Extreme Cues
The reason I was the lone predictor to have SS missing out on the playoffs was confirmed by someone special just today, but does that mean SS aren't capable of making the playoffs? Of course not! Nigel will bring a solid 5 week in & week out, but with the amount of compact talent in the league, will it be enough? Some people could say have had enough of Ben and his league hopping antics, but for the time being he's with EC and Paul couldn't be happier. With Ben comes leadership, dedication, and some good shooters [until he leaves]. EC would've been able to bring the heat without him, but with him? Better getchya popcorn ready!
Wildcard - Best banker? nullified. Who to stay away from? The not-so sleepy Paul.
Prediction - 4-1 EC
Money In the Bank vs Ultimate Outlaws
So, no one knows anything about either of these leagues apparently, history lesson? MIB was created by Rich and was a bit of a spin-off league from TC. He has picked up steam within the league and has been able to compete with the big dogs in WPC, IPA & UIC. His players aren't well known, but underestimating them is just, well, dumb. Ultimate Outlaws, were a quiet league. Led by Rebs, UO slowly creeped into the interleague scene, gaining plenty of experience along the way and finally this season breaking through with some solid scores in most notably IPA & WPC. Lately though, the once very-sporty side has turned around have slowly been gaining a poor reputation. A shame because they had picked up Jordy, but who knows now..
Wildcard - Best banker? Monte. Who to stay away from? CRAZYREDNECK/SKULL_FUCKER
Prediction - 3-2 Money in the Bank
Extreme Pool Competitors vs Freedom
3 mixed reviews from the other predictions about EPC. "They have no one", "He should have his IPA team" & "He's got some good shooters coming in". Well, his IPA team is pretty good as evident by their undefeated record, but he does have some good shooters in, and some "sicc" players coming in. Jack will always be there no doubt, along with his "mvp", but what about the rest of his team? Consistency is always the key for Jacks squad, not playing well, but getting his top guys to show more often then not. He's a damn hard competitor and he's been cleaning up his act and it's done well for him, so I don't see him changing any time soon. Apparently Freedom needs to change their captain because it seems their hopeless at the moment. With no captain or co-captain listed, it has some saying they may withdraw week 1. Did Momma ever tell you not to judge a book by a cover? Like Jack, Pete's a competitive guy and will push as hard as he can to get a full, skilled roster.
Wildcard - Best banker? That sicc mvp. Who to stay away from? MLP's bank comp winner Petey
Prediction - 3-2 Freedom
There's the first week, hope you enjoy them! Best of luck to everyone this week & season!
