PRO Week 2

Hello ladies & gents, and welcome to Jack's version of PRO week 2 predictions.
To clear off something real quick, I might not be able to do weekly blogs, as my college schedule this semester is rather tight, but I promise to deliver my whole potential to you all whenever and if ever I write predictions.
A quick comment on Voodoo's PRO week 1 runt: What is my response to your blog? LOL!

With all that said, we can move on to this week's predictions..

Before I start, I did not really follow with anything that happened last week, so these predictions might be a little off, but eh, what the heck?

Match #1 - Sexy Poolerz Vs. Miscues

Sexy Poolerz had a great run last week. This team is led by captain Bev and co/captain Jack. This week I, Jack will be captaining Sexy Poolerz in this match and will be handpicking our players for the night. I really do believe Sexy Poolerz will go far this season, as I also stated in my pre-season predictions, but I do admit there will be a few obstacles and barriers before them, and Miscues are definatly a great example.

On the other side, we have Miscues, coming off strong from WSOP with a 5-0 run. This team defeated Pool Fiction last week, and this does not surprise me a bit. Players in this team undoubtedly have a lot of charisma, starting with Ant, Ben, Stephen, Conor, Zach, and so forth. I would again not be surprised if I saw Ant bring a few more rather professional players on the table this week as well. Let's see what tricks he has up his sleeves this week.

This match is definatly one to watch. Both teams are very talented and have what it takes to give a great performance. We will see a clash between Jack, Troy, and Jason on one side and Ant, Conor, Ben on another. The end result is a no-brainer.

Prediction => Miscues Win 5-2


Match #2 - Dead Strokes Vs. Straight Shots

Dead Strokes had a good performance last week against Freedom, at least one of their players did. I do not see many familiar ids on their week 1 roster, I do not even recognize sin-e, but eventually I should. Dead Strokes has not been performing as well as they would a few months ago in other interleagues. James is a great guy though, a lot of class, and I think he has what it takes to put on a show if he is willing to; and Chele, another great captain with a lot of heart.

Straight Shots very similarly to Deadstrokes had a so-so week 1. Poor performances all around, probably the lack of luck playing an essential role there, Ben was the only guy on the squad with an impressive run last week. He claims to be a champion, well I see the guy stepping up to the plate and proving that he trully is, indeed, a champion. Straight Shots is a very organized league and have a well-structured roster in any interleague they participate in, it will not be any different in PRO.

Another match to watch, James and Chele take on Ben and Shelle, in what should be an epic duel between two great leagues/teams. Consistency and efficiency will be key aspects in this match. Choose your players wisely and give it your best shot.

Prediction => Straight Shots Wins 5-4


Match #3 - Pool Fiction Vs. Freedom

Pool Fiction began their season not so strong. However, that does not mean they are not a tough team. Pool Fiction goes way back, and has been part of some of the greatest clashes in ypool interleague history. They simply had a bad week, but will definatly look to picking up their slack this week, and beginning a hopeful endless winning streak for the remainder of the season. Freedom, Petey, and his henchmen will have their say in this though. Kerry is bestknown for being a sweet and smart captain and has more respect than most people in the game. Look for her to come into this match prepared and bring a few of her top guns along.

Freedom is led by their captain Petey, another great captain full of class and respect. They did well against Dead Strokes last week, but not well enough. Some of their key players lost their games, in Cam and Sean. These are players whose wins are necessary in rare cases where they will have to carry the whole team into a win. Besides that, everyone played generally well. Petey loves it being at the highest extremity of the echelon in any competition he takes part in, and PRO is definatly one of his favorites, so watch out fellow leagues.

This match should be pretty tight, we will see Petey and Kerry battling it out. These two teams again, go way back. They have faced one another a few times in different interleagues, and its always the other league who ends up winning the match.

Prediction => Freedom Wins 5-4


Match #4 - Break & Run Vs. Pool Dragonz

Break & Run had a great kick-off week, defeating a strong adversary in Straight Shots. Dina leads this powerhouse of a league/team, and is helped by Ross, a very loyal friend of hers. Both players have a lot of captaining experience and have led their league to winning many championships in interleague competitions. This week should not be any different from last week for this side, as their players are clearly way more talented than anyone in Pool Dragonz, counting jordy, croz, ross, mike, jim, and so forth.

Pool Dragonz started off poor in week 1, losing badly against Sexy Poolerz. They should have won last week since their opponents were not the toughest in PRO. This weak they will face a much tougher league in BNR. Drew is a good captain, he goes far back captaining BP, a very successful league in its day, and even just recently in UIC. He has DJ, another loyal BP player always there having his back. They have a good roster in Drew, DJ, Hani, but is it enough?

This is an interesting match because BNR will look to picking up a big win and extending their winning streak, whereas PDZ will play this one for pride and to earn more respect and the attention of their fellow leagues and PRO predictors. GL both sides!

Prediction => Break & Run wins 5-3
