So, now that the matchups are set, I'm going to predict that Albany will beat Seaslugs and Wahoos will edge out Death Star (superior talent outweighing game shape deficiencies). Deronimo will make it out of the Big 8 to the finals fairly easily. The two best teams in the Great 8 (no offense, McMornings) meet in the first round, and I think HCA will be enough to give Nashville Freaks the win, with a subsequent road win setting up a Deronimo-Freaks showdown. I'll hold till the finals are set before predicting who will get promoted.

Well I predict the winner/promotee will be out of the great 8. I agree Deronimo will make it to the finals but I just don't think he has what it takes to take down our top teams.

And I feel deeply honored you included me in the 2 best teams category =)
Even though I don't necessarily agree but, I'll go along with it for now.

Well he did go 5-3 against your division with the 3 losses coming on the road. Home Court Advantage anyone?

HCA is big, but I just don't think McMornings is at that level yet. Also, that first game was against the other division, so he went 4-3 down the stretch within the division. Just not sold on them putting everything together this season.

Ohhh. In that case, I agree that Deronimo will have the edge. Not only due to HCA, but due to a clearer road to the finals. The question is whether or not anyone risks a Playoff Normal to gain an enthusiasm advantage in the finals. Deronimo seems to be the most likely to be able to take this chance.

Looking at the path each team has to take, in each of the three rounds, I'd say Deronimo is the favorite to promote at this point.

Yea Nashville thought you were talking about Meridian.

And those 3 losses came against our top teams. Had Nashville played his normal tactics and lineup, and Deronimo not had HCA then that game would've gone completely different I believe. I believe Nashville is by far the best team in the league.

And I'll reiterate what I said, I don't think Deronimo has the guns to take down our divisions' top teams. And our top teams are all in the playoffs, and one is going to the finals, which I believe any on of us 4 can beat him 2/3 games on the road.

I think I'm lucky to even be in the playoffs. This season has kind of been a re-building mode for my team, so I don't play my lineups at full strength like I should. If I did, I believe my team could beat anyone in this league, if I had HCA. Our division is just to damn tough though, so who knows.

Probably Nash/Unstop. will be the victor this season. Good riddance, this division needs to get easier.

Interesting comments, guys. It seems that Meridian Hill is the Rodney Dangerfield of your league. Your conference is indeed tough but I believe that I'd rather try to compete in your conference than in the one I'm in:-)
