[Royal Hawaiian Opihi]

It's only week 3 in the NFL season... but already the Frenzy East division has a massive rivalry week! Every team is 1-1 after two games... so this weekend's matchups will start to separate the contenders from the pretenders.

The OPIHI will be limping into this heated rivalry vs. the PREDATORS without their starting QB, Tua Tagovailoa, who everyone and their brother knows had his 3rd concussion in 3 seasons. The Opihi are forced to choose with Kirk "Don't Make Me Throw Off My Back Foot" Cousins or Gardner "I Can't Believe I'm Still in the NFL" Minshew at the helm. Fortunately for the OPIHI, they have a stable of stud WRs (Chase, Olave, Flowers, Ridley) to pick up the slack.

The hated PREDS are rolling with a trio of home-town-heros: Josh Allen, James Cook, and Khalil Shakir. "I'm no homer," said owner Mike SantaLucia, as he was eating hot wings from the Anchor Bar ("Home of the original Buffalo Wing!")... "I just put the best athletes out on the field on any given Sunday."

The prognosticators believe this has the makings of a blowout... with the Preds an AUDACIOUS 38.8 point favorite this week (according to MFL predictions!). In fact, it's the most-lopsided point spread in the entire league. Are the OPHI worried? "Not a bit," says GM Jim White. "Our team always gets up for a game against the Preds. I expect this week to be no different."

These two franchises have quite a history in the Frenzy League with 8 championships between them (4 apiece). But the Opihi haven't won a 'chip' in a decade.. while the Predators were co-champions just 2 seasons ago.

This weekend's game could very well be a blowout.
Then again... you just might be surprised at what the Opihi bring to this divisional battle in upstate New York. Stay tuned!!!
