The Run For the Basement

Even the Refs Can't Take it Anymore

OK, we've all had a warm and fuzzy moment over our underdogs....but it's back to the business of losing!

This week's Featured Cellar Matchup

Seahags at Lambs

Hags were Losers of the Week last week, showing how it's done in only their first week of membership in the cellar. This is going to be a HELL of a game, and I'm not kidding. It's going to be awful. Hags do move the ball- 15th in league in 1st downs, and have almost 200 points scored. They shut out the Lambs in September 28-0. This is the LAST winnable game on the Lambs schedule. Lambs could run the table. If 'Hags can lose, 3-8 is nothing to dismiss, even in the highly competitive NFC Cellar.

THE RUN TO THE MOLDY CARPET

THE OUTLOOK in the NFC

Tampa, Detroit, and Lambs- one of these teams will take the NFC Cellar- unless some really bizarre events happen. Like giant meteors and zombies, for example.

Tampa, the sleeper team in the NFC, has the Pansies, Jets, and Seahags as possible victories. They also have Falcons twice and Saints. I see one, maybe two victories in this bunch.

Detroit - Bengals, Ravens, Cardinals, 49ers, Bears. Bengals can lose to anybody. They lost to the Raydurz. Still, the Kittens need a really bad team to beat, and the Brownies have already visited. I don't see a victory in here.

Lambs- Seahags is their best chance to win a game. Their ONLY WIN was against Detroit, so they have the tie-breaker nailed down. They also have Bears, Titanics, Texans, Cardinals and 49ers. Not too tough, but the Lambs...almost beat Deadskins, almost beat Jags, almost beat Saints. They will almost beat 2 of these teams.

I will go out on a limb and say they can win 1 more game. So, it would come down to the tie-breaker with Detroit.

Since Tampa does not play either the Lambs or Kittens, any tie will come down to PF-PA, and any other tie-breakers we can think of.

OUTLOOK in AFC

Brownies, Brownies, Brownies.

As bad as the Raydurz are, and boy are they a bumbling bunch of guys running into each other and dropping interceptions that should be six, it's going to be tough to catch these guys.

BUT! Brownies have the hardest schedule for losing- they have the Bengals, who let ANYBODY hang around, the Cheaps AND the Raydurz. They also have the Steelers, who are not perfect either. But, come on, have you seen these guys play?

Brownies could win 2 games. I mean, that seems completely impossible, more meteors, zombies, and mutant neutrinos, but if it somehow comes to pass, there are 3 teams that could end up in a tie with them- Raydurz, Nils or Cheaps. So don't count them out yet, it could happen!
