Well we're down to just 2 weeks left in this football spring season. It has been a weird year but this football season has brought us some sense of normalcy. 4:15 Gatley Dogs on a Thursday and the world is a better place.
Noble Johnson vs Catalyst Maria
This is the 4:15 Thursday game of the week! And man is it a great one! Everyone loves the Noble Johnson. The noblest of all the Nobles it looks like the Johnson has only played 1 game this year(according to MaxPreps so who knows if it's accurate) which is a shame because they tend to be a contender for the Noble Bowl. Big fan of the Noble Johnson and hey it's 2021 so the fact that they have just played 1 game is fine and I can still pick them.

Hyde Park vs Dunbar
I am not sure what has happened to Dunbar. The Mightymen are 0-3 and not looking very mighty mighty. Hyde Park is one of the few teams I don't believe I have ever seen in the CPL. But I have seen Hyde Park wrestle and they got sweet singlets. Also Hyde Park is the Thunderbirds! My HS OC drove a Thunderbird, it was an awesome car and we could score some points!
Thunderbirds 54 Dunbar 14
Little Village vs Dyett
They say it takes a village to raise a child. If the village is a little one do you need multiple villages to raise that child? One of the positives of the pandemic is I changed my diet and lost some lbs. The one problem with losing the weight is nothing fits right anymore. Had to go buy a new belt last week not that I am venturing out into the world again. When in the world did belts become so expensive! Diets are overrated, bring on the beer and fried foods!

Butler vs Fenger

North Lawndale vs Collins
Soooooo I look at MaxPreps to see what North Lawndale is doing. The ever unreliable MP tells me that North Lawndale lost to Clemente 8-2...in OT. I want to see a game that at the end of regulation was 2-2. Man only in the CPL, you all are missing out if you're not checking out some Thursday mid afternoon/late evening games you are missing out! The Collins quadruplets have left Lake View and that's the only Collins I know of.

Senn vs Roosevelt
Looks like Roosevelt may be getting their first game this week. Doesn't matter, no games or 10 games they aint ready for the DAWGZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
DAWGZ 24 Roosevelt 0
Orr vs Michelle Clark
Orr has struggled to Row The Boat so far this spring and seem to be taking on water. Michelle Clark started out hot but struggled last week after Percy said to take Clark getting 14 points. Percy I trusted you and I lost a lot of money on that game! In a normal league I'd say pound the 2-1 team over the 0-2 game. BUT not so fast my friend, there is nothing that is normal about CPL football, especially in the Spring. We rowing the boats this weekend!
Orr 24 Michelle Clark 12
Loyola vs Phillips
I don't get Phillips vs Simeon this year so I'll happily take Loyola vs Phillips instead. Not quite sure about this 4:15 kick, seems a little shady to me. I know this game, like the previous one will be at Loyola. Personally I would love to see the Loyola team make their way down to Mandrake, now that would be an experience! If at Mandrake I would lay all my money on Phillips, with it being at Loyola I'm leaning towards placing a wager similar to my Clark with the 14 last week. Hopefully the Wildcats don't let me down!
