I'm not saying any one team is throwing in the white towel other than Gavno and Roxas City Red Claws.
My theory is that Gavno is not really throwing in the towel but rather taking advantage of acquiring a great draft choice while stashing away a great deal of cash before obtaining some fantastic talent followed by promptly kicking the bejesus out of the lesser teams.
However, when comparing the two conferences, the Big Eight has proven to once again be far superior to the Great Eight.
