Our Expert Predictions:

Jeremy Piper : BCFC Bears
Looking at the teams, it is obvious that Joseph Medlin - DE will drive the offense crazy. This game will be so very entertaining.

Mary Moore : BCFC Bears
Looking at the two rosters, you would be a fool not to think Raymond Vasquez - CB is going to be a difference maker on the Bears defense.

Jim Nox : BCFC Bears
The amount leadership on the Bears will really help them this week. You only need to look at guys like Brandon Monaco - LB and Matt Kendall - LB to see the importance. Leadership like that helps you win games.

Darren Francis : BCFC Bears
Head coach James Hopper does a great job getting them prepared every week. This week will be no different. He is has a really good understanding of what works offensively. He is innovative with his defense. Get your popcorn ready.

John Thompson - C. Mark Abel - WR. Dennis Sands - SS. Team players! With guys who can gell like that, they get wins.

Jim Nox : BCFC Bears
I really think having so strong and vocal leaders like Brandon Monaco - LB and Matt Kendall - LB in the locker room and on the field is invaluable and definitely helps the Bears win this game. Can't lose.

Darren Francis : BCFC Bears
I am sure head coach James Hopper has something up his sleeve for this game. He makes great offensive adjustments. He is running an explosive defense. This is going to be a very viewer friendly game.

Charles Troy - RB is playing great!

Charles Troy - RB is looking like a star out there so far this season. If he keeps playing such astonishing football, he’s got a shot at becoming a franchise legend.

Andrew prepares better than Painter.


JOHN PAINTER, HEAD COACH, NEW ORLEANS REAPERS
The Reapers currently sit at 2-9-0.

Painter is better suited to lead a team than Andrew.
Painter makes his players hit the weight room more often than Andrew.

Waugh: The icon

Nova Scotia has confirmed that many in the owners circle are already considering Marvin Waugh as a sure fire first ballot hall of famer. Naturally, many in Nova Scotia are eager to have him retire with the Vikings. Banners are already being drafted.

Week 12: RB Jeremiah Adams (WIN) wins Offensive Player of the Week

The honor comes after Adams's 17 att, 115 yds, 3 TD performance against the Memphis Pharaohs. Adams from Alabama was selected in round 2, 12 years ago.

Game of the Week: Nova Scotia Vikings at Houston RoughRiders

Our Expert Predictions:

Jeremy Piper : Houston RoughRiders
I have a lot of respect for head coach Billy Vandiver. He is doing great things in Houston. He makes great offensive adjustments. He is one of the best defensive minds. There will be some very good football to watch here.

Mary Moore : Nova Scotia Vikings
Looking at the teams, it seems obvious that you have to mention this LB named Kenneth Corey. He is getting paid a lot. The reason he is getting paid a lot is that he is really good. Do I need to say more?

Jim Nox : Nova Scotia Vikings
Having team player who help coordinate everyone else is invaluable and definitely helps the Vikings win this game. If you look at their roster, I see John Thompson - C and Mark Abel - WR playing this kind of role. They might even win with three touchdowns.

Darren Francis : Nova Scotia Vikings
For this game, my best guess is that the defense will struggle to contain Michael Goebel - WR. Expect him to show up in a big way. They will put up a lot of points.

Nova Scotia Vikings defense dominates!

The Vikings' defense is playing lights out this season. In 10 games they’ve surrendered only 3049 total yards and 114 points. Kenneth Corey - LB is the skipper of the defense with 65 take downs on the year. Could the Purple People Eaters be back in Nova Scotia?

Big boys shows the way in Toronto.

The offensive line from North are dirt rolling defenders this year. They’ve given up only 28 sacks in 10 games while collecting 380 pancakes.

Morgan stirring trouble

Reports out of Toronto suggest that coaches are keeping a close eye on Gregory Morgan - WR. They fear he is a bad influence on the younger players.

Week 11: RB Walter Sparks (NSV) wins Offensive Player of the Week

The honor comes after Sparks's 28 att, 134 yds, 2 TD performance against the New Orleans Reapers. Sparks from Clemson was selected in round 1, 4 years ago.

Bears - 35, Totems - 32

Game of the Week: Houston RoughRiders at Toronto North

Our Expert Predictions:

Jeremy Piper : Houston RoughRiders
When you consider the two rosters, it seems obvious that Jerry Harris - RB can take over a game. The RoughRiders offense is great when he shows up. The way they win this game will tell a lot about what they are as a team.

Mary Moore : Toronto North
When you think of the players that will be on the field, I think that Dennis Duarte - DT will not be a key player. He is hard to gameplan for. You blink for a second and he has taken over the game.

Jim Nox : Toronto North
I think their defense will carry them. They are 4th in pass defense. They only give up 209 per game. They are 5th in the league in tackles for loss. Just win baby.

Darren Francis : Toronto North
I think having a leader like Gary Grissom II - WR is the kind of thing that will help the North win this game.

Moore and Nox Mock Draft

Pick 1: New Orleans Reapers
Larry Moore: Douglas Belcher - QB
Has a cannon for an arm. He fills a need for them. Great pick here.

Jim Nox: James Banda - LB
Known for showing up early and staying late. Here you have a guy, who really benefits the atmosphere in the building. Everyone wants to be around him. Solid technique on tackles. Not the strongest, but strong enough. Can maintain his leverage and shed blocks. He is alert and reacts well on the field. Fans might not be on board with what can be framed as a need pick. But trust me once they see this kid play, they will be more than happy.

Pick 2: Windsor Gamblers
Larry Moore: James Banda - LB
This guy understands what it means to be a pro. Well liked in the locker room. Consistently takes down ball carrier when he gets to him. Would occasionally flatten offensive linemen in college. Even in the pros, opponents better not try to block him with a Tight End or Running Back. Quickly discerns the field, and where to go to to make a play. Fans might not be on board with what can be framed as a need pick. But trust me once they see this kid play, they will be more than happy.

Jim Nox: Bret Robinson - C
Strong enough to play with the pros. In the run game he blocks well, shows tenacity and opens lanes. This will benefit the team. They need players at the position, and good ones at that. He fits the bill, he is worth the pick. End of story.

Pick 3: Seattle Totems
Larry Moore: Brenton Stevens - T
Do not underestimate the strength this kid brings to the table. This is a guy who is already a pretty good blocker in the run game. Plays with intelligence. You need him, just get him already.

Jim Nox: Brenton Stevens - T
Sufficiently strong for the pro game. Nice blocking skills on run plays. He will contribute to the running game. Good instincts. Once this kid gets in the building, they will be set at this position for years.

Pick 4: Toronto North
Larry Moore: Curtis Cruz - FS
