The Comm-nosticator’s predictions for week 9:

Lightning (-1) vs. Baltimorons
Both of these teams would really like to gain some ground on the leaders of their divisions. One of them will get to add a W to their record. But Coach Thadtotti will have to suffer through a Monday night Steelers game against an opposing RB.

Predacons (-1/2) vs. Yuengling Brewers
The Brewers won last week despite having all of their stars on a bye. The Preds are in a similar situation this week, with the 3FL's top pick and two WRs enjoying their off week. These two teams have been unpredictable this year - the game could be the Toyota "biggest blowout" or a tie.

ray ray haw (-1/2) vs. Marauders
At 3-5, both of these teams are on the edge of the playoff picture. A win here could be a very important separator in the coming weeks. Unfortunately, Ben Roethlisberger and Skippy Reed control the fate of both teams.

Stiletto Stompers (-1/2) vs. Dumbbums
Coach Bev's team has been outstanding so far this year. They have won their last three games and lead the league in points. The 'Bums are looking to regain some momentum after two straight losses. Prime time will rule this matchup, as a combined seven players start their games after 8pm.

Misfits, Inc. (-1) vs. The Comfy Chair
The Chair can't buy a break this season, but it's unlikely that the Corp will be very sympathetic. Still, it will be fun to watch McNabb and Romo go head to head on Sunday night.

And the game of the week...

Spiked Vipers (-1/2) vs. Renegades
More than half of the Vipers are playing in the same NFL game. They better hope it's a high scoring affair or the Renegades can definitely steal a win. Whatever happens will be late breaking news - SpiVi doesn't have a player on the field until after the 1pm games are over.

Good luck this week.
