Week Four Matchups

The CASINO probably ran off some would be gamblers last week. But, we are always looking for new gamblers. Word on the street is that Parker is working overtime this week, to make up for his losses. Hoping that the Better Half won't recognize the losses missing on the debit card. Ryan Reynolds recently stated, "I don't know if I can handle losing $5.00 a week to the CASINO, I need to save that money to buy tampons for my bleeding 'tang."

The Casino is happy to cover and analyze 2 games this week. As some front runners match up early in the IIFFL season.

GAME 1: Oinkpigs(2-1) vs. Mr. Natalie Portman(3-0)

Team Portman is shaking in their cleats this week, facing a very strong Pigs team. In fact, they are openely admitting they are "worried" about losing this week. They better hope that attitude changes before kickoff this week.

The Pigs will bring a very consistent club into the game, with guys who are capable of blowing up. However, one of those games last week by L. Tomlinson didn't save them from their first Loss of the year. Tomlinson this week goes to NE. But, C. Johnson against Houston. B. Westbrook @ KC, and the Baltimore D should score well. Team Portman should have at least a couple of big showings from the following. Jake Delhomme against Green Bay. T. Holt @ NYGiants, R. Johnson against Hou., C. Williams against Det.

Yahoo Projection: Oinkpigs 107 Mr. Natalie Portman 107
RRT CASINO: Oinkpigs -4.5

GAME 2: My Brain Hurts(2-1) vs. Running Mad(3-0)

Team Brain Pain once again is in a game of the week. This time facing the much hyped and undefeated Running Mad. This game as well will directly affect the top of the IIFFL standings for next week.

Brain Pain is hoping to have a big week from P. Manning who is quarterbacking @ Ten. If Manning ever gets it going this week, this would be the place. The team will also have A. Boldin against SF. T. Glenn @ Oak. And J. Lewis against the Jets. And a little added bonus of the Bucs defense against a turnover happy Joey Harrington. Undoubtedly, Running Mad has its hands full this week. But, they have the tools to pull this off. They have to like the fact that C. Palmer is home against the Texans. And is capable of bringing in more points than Manning this week. W. Dunn and D. McCallister should once again put up good numbers. But will either one of them find the endzone? And with team MVP S. Smith piling up numbers every week this team is always a threat.

Yahoo Projection: My Brain Hurts 105 Running Mad 101
RRT CASINO: Brain Pain -2
