The playoff race on our side is very complicated, and just about anything could happen. My prediction is this, mark it in stone.

There are two different 3 team swings that will develop the next week. You have NY Wahoos, That One Team, Big Bucks and Soulja Boyz playing against each other, and Unstoppables, Meridian, Blackstone and Googily all playing each other. Unstoppables play on the road against Meridian and me, but have an easy win over Blackstone. I predict them to beat Meridian on the road but losing to me. Meridian must then beat me in order to have a shot. IF they do that, both teams will have gone 2-1 in the final 3 games.

Now on to the other teams. NY Wahoos plays on the road against TOT and BB, leaving them a minimal chance at winning both games unless there is more enthusiasm involved. I predict both losses. 1-2 for NY. TOT has NY at home and BB on the road. I predict a 2-1 finish beating NY and Soulja. BB has both NY and TOT at home. Very high chance of winning all 3 games making them 3-0. That'll move BB up to 2nd seed, with TOT moving into a solid 3rd place.

If it pans out like this, Unstoppables and Meridian wont have a shot at the playoffs, but if I'm wrong with anything, and say Big Bucks or That One Team loses 2 games, then possibly both Unstoppables and Meridian might could make it.

This is a difficult one to predict, definitely will be interesting to watch play out.

Since MCM and BB both beat me I think they'll make the playoffs. They must be the best Great 8 teams to have beaten Deronimo right? Leaving 2 spots for Googily and whoever wins the TOT/NY game. And in the Big 8, it all comes down to what the Luchadors do on the road at HI.

Ha. For completely different reasons than Hokied's, I also came up with BB and MCM making the playoffs. I had to go game by game in that conference and decided with my very non-expert methods this will be the final standings:

Googily Dolls
NY Wahoos
THE BIG BUCKS
Meridian Hill McMornings
That One Team
Unstoppables

Bulletin board material for any teams that feel slighted? I'm also going to say Deronimo #1, Liburn #2 and Hoofhearted #3 in the Big 8. Not saying I'll beat Liburn, but I think they lose one against either Raleigh or me while Deronimo wins out. And I'm giving the tiebreaker coin flip to Deronimo. That's so close it could go either way.

Love the chatter... feeling saucy? Je ne sais pas.

I was feeling good about my team until BB rocked me at my place last week... a real wake-up call. That must have happened because of high E... which is why a nice cup run always helps. Anyway. I feel just fine right now, as worst case scenario for the McMornings is a relegation series w/ HCA against Deicidicals. Problem with that is that everyone besides Googily is in this boat with me... row you a**holes row!

I think it will fall out like this:

Googily Dolls
NY Wahoos
THE BIG BUCKS
Meridian Hill McMornings
That One Team
Unstoppables

too I guess I should add since I just pasted it again....

Haha I'm glad you guys don't think I'm gonna make the playoffs.. I was gonna play for relegation and give meridian the 5th spot and let the rest duke it out for the 4th place seed but maybe I'll play for the playoffs to prove you guys wrong. I beat meridian once, I can do it again.

I'll make my plans after your game at Googily....

but the big swing game for me in this final stretch is NY at TOT. Tomorrow night. Let's see some action. Like I said before, we've all got a sweet landing despite the heights to which we aspire. The rest is pride.

Well. im pushing for NY. Check the center they are bidding on for 7.5m.... outrageous i tell you.

eeek he got him... i'd feel like a dick if I shared his stats, but i'll just say he's gonna be one high paid center next season. Only reason I didnt' go for him.
Look out league.

exactly. now possum has rolled over and decided to cross the road, except this possum is the size of a car.

Time to get a definitive answer about the ramifications of that asterisk. I'd rather not worry about the last couple matches.
