Mea culpa, Mea culpa, Mea maxima culpa! I was home.  The game was on.  I was playing Guitar Hero 5.
As most of the world predicted, the Florida Tuskers finished their season with a perfect 6-0 record.  Unfortunately, that meant the California Redwoods were their latest victim.

The California Redwoods are tied with the Las Vegas Locomotives at 2-2, and play each other tonight.
The Florida Tuskers have securely locked up the regular season championship, being 5-0 with 1 game left to play.
As previously stated, the Redwoods NEED this win tonight, given the fact that the Terminators Tuskers will be their last opponent, and the Tuskers can’t be beaten, stopped, or reasoned with, and the Sentinels have as much backbone as a bowl of wet fettucine.
