ALL TIME COACHING RECORDS & POWER RATINGS: Updated

Who can now call themselves the all-time winningest coach in Blue Ribbon League History?
Who has scored more points per game than any other coach?
Who is the top team in this week's Power Ratings?

The answer to these questions and more can be found on the pages in the sidebar on the right of your screen!

As a side note, teams with a higher Power Rating won 5 of the 6 games last week.  Only the K-911s lost to a lesser ranked team, and that was only by .5 point!

The Blog Predictor went 4-2 on the week.  The Predictor was wrong about the Pretty Boys stealing a victory from the Freemasons, and also picked the Soup Can to upset the Fluffernutter.

WEEK 2: Predictions

PRETTY BOYS vs. FREEMASONS
The Pretty Boys will look to even the all-time series against the Freemasons (3-2-1 against the Pretty Boys).  The Masonic lodge is a tough place to play, and neither of these teams wants to fall to 0-2 on the season.
PREDICTION: Pretty Boys 118 vs Freemasons 112

FELONS vs K-911s
The Felons are 4-1 all-time against their division rival the K-911s.  But this is a new year for the K-911s who are coming off of a big victory in week 1.  The K-911s get back their staring RB Arian Foster this week, while the Felons most likely won't have Steven Jackson.  If Kevin Kolb and Kenny Britt can recapture week 1 magic, the K-911s have a chance.
PREDICTION: Felons 121 vs K-911s 120

RIGGINS vs ROOMMATES
Riggins is looking lost.  Coach Holicky is lost enough to start Rex Grossman.  That can't bode well for the winless Riggins squad.  Meanwhile, the Roommates look to move to 2-0 and stay atop the Columbia City Division.
PREDICTION: Riggins 96 vs Roommates 125

COUNSELOR vs MANTI
The Counselor only has a winning record against two teams, the now defunct Ballard Kittens (3-0) and the Manti (4-1).  In this clash of the two least winning teams in league history, the Counselor should have a good chance to move to 5-1 against the Manti...as the Manti most likely will start at least one player who will not play.
PREDICTION: Counselor 105 vs Manti 91

SOUP CAN vs. F:LUFFERNUTTER
This prime time matchup is the other battle of unbeatens in week 2 (the other being the Felons/K-911s).  Fluffernutter looked like a juggernaut last week by putting up over 160 points.  The Soup Can won a tough battle against the arch enemy Freemasons.  The Soup lead the all-time series 3-2, but find themselves a 20 point underdog.
PREDICTION: Soup Can 130 vs Fluffernutter 132

MARQUEE MATCHUP: Royale W/Cheese VS. Purple Hurricanes


12 fans die in 'Explosive Offense' stunt


Tweeted by: the Ochocinco News Network***


Coach Cam has been know for his explosive offenses since the inception of the league in 2008. As the leagues all-time highest scoring team, he has a skill for bringing in the "home run hitting" players and mixing them with the steady big scores of Aaron Rodgers and Andre Johnson. His prolific scoring has landed him in the playoffs each of the three years this league has existed, the only team to have done so. In other words, Coach Cam is consistently scoring fantasy dreams.

This past season, Coach Cam may have met his rival with the rebuilt Purple Hurricanes, led by the masterful managerial skills of Coach Pierson. Last season Coach-P was met with a chorus of boos with the keeper selection of Hakeem Niks and the drafting Darren McFadden. All skeptics were 'caned' when the team went on to lead the league in regular season scoring and record. They then went on to beat the Masons in the Blue Ribbon Bowl, a moment Coach-J called, 'whimsical' and 'like fairies and sprites doing a dance above my head.'

To amp up the excitement for this weeks action, the two coaches combined forces to put on a fireworks display that would 'blow you up like how our scoring blows other teams up.' The event was dubbed a 'fan appreciation blow up'. Blowing up they did, as they used a dangerous amount of fireworks after which chaos ensued, killing 12 fans and injuring 44.

"All I remember is Coach-J yelling, 'Who likes explosive scoring,'" said one of the injured, "He then stood behind a protective shield with Coach Cam as they detonated the explosives... oh, the horror... I can't find my wife... no one knows where she is..."

"Coach Cam said he put a firework out there for every point his team has scored in the past three plus years," said another victim, "Good lord... that was like... 4,000 fireworks in an area no bigger than a front yard... a fan next to me gave me a look of fear... then his head was blown off... and all of the carnage... this is a day I never want to relive."

When asked for comment, Coach Cam was passed out on a couch. Coach-J made himself available and stated, "Yeah... our bad... we honestly didn't consider how many fireworks we were using... or the danger behind it... I mean, we did because we got ourselves a protective shield... but shit happens... sometimes you get steam rolled by a high octane offense in this life... AM I RIGHT!?!?"
