I can't believe that Huntington Beach has a shot at the division title. We started, what, 1-5? Good thing the division is so weak. If we make the playoffs, I don't feel very good about what will happen. The defense has carried the team but after Govan's injury they have not been as strong. And now we are without our top O-lineman.

this week 17 situation is the exact same thing that happened last year, except it was between Sacramento and Long Beach. I had to win and hope for them to lose. I hope it happens again.

Similar story with Hartford. The first part of the season was a disaster, but we ended up winning the division despite strong seasons from the other 3 teams.

Blech. I'm in three leagues and have missed the playoffs in all three so far this year. :cry:

Let's see how good I am at rebuilding - two aging quarterbacks, one leaderless team, no stud RBs and no dominating defenses. Quite a challenge I'd say. :)
