So intense, frenetic, and physical was the game of gridiron between Renaissance and Venezuela that the Round Up develops a nose bleed each time it thinks about last week's clash. Now we'll be the last weekly round up on the internet to cast aspersions about Venezuela's brand of American football since we don't actually know the rules of the sport, but surely there's a law that says attempted amputations have no place in the game. No?
As far as we know, Venezuela's Chávistas aren't qualified surgeons but surely they should have applied some form of pain killer before crudely attempting to separate Scholsey's right foot from the rest of his body. No? The Round Up doesn't watch ER or CASUAL+Y these days but we're pretty sure the routine is sedate first then operate second.
The only surgical procedure remaining this season is for Recreativo to stitch up the carcass of this league with at least a point required in their next match against La Chávistas. The Spanish campeones have requested to play both La Chávistas and Renaissance in the final week of the season in a cocky and (soon to be backed up) show of confidence.
Renaissance's injury ravaged squad will have to settle for second at best and their mood won't be livened by a tough visit to FC Warne. The Aussies will look to use their home advantage to good effect and make the most of the small rectangular space containing 14 tightly cramped individuals and no southward facing window.
This week's predictions
The Minus Column is very cerebral, went to the finest schools in the land, and was brought up on a diet of goose liver moose, sardines, egg yolk and other nutritious food that help boost IQ. The Minus Column predicts:
Avalon 4 - 3 Ted Baker
Recreativo 6 - 4 Venezuela (if they play this week)
Warne 3 - 4 Renaissance
The Round Up didn't go to the finest schools in the land and was brought up on a diet of spaghetti hoops and Monster Munch. The Round Up predicts:
Avalon, Renaissance, and Recreativo. Genius, isn't it?
