Wow, Paul Owens is very solid. Are you going to keep him as is or thinking of training him for the NT?

First I'll probably giggle like darky when he gets a pop from Timmons

Timmons hasn't popped all season! What the crap?

How the play-offs are certainly to unfold, so go ahead and run to Vegas.


Round 1
USA shuts down the Machines
How does USA not beat the machines. It's like a bad summer movie, an entire freakin' country can't beat down the machine uprising? In all honesty, I don't really care about the blue teams on the inferior side of the standings, but it seems like USA winning will piss off the most people while the 'other' most people can scream about crow, so Team America wins. Fuck yeah!

Angry Dragons blows his Phantom Menace
Really, the Dragons should be the best team over there, but they don't seem to be. My inner adolescent boy is chuckling over the angry dragon thing, so they have to win, right? sounds good to me.

semis
Dragons eat USA
It takes a reptile to destroy a country, not some machines.... Dragons advance to the finals, rightfully so.


Round 1
TF rides out R. Doggie-stylez G white
Why the hell would I not pick me to win? I can't win on the road. I also can't beat better teams. I also 'rebuilt' and will field the worse team I have ever had the past few seasons. Since I am not a good manager, this means I should win, because I was doing it wrong before. It just makes too much sense that I will lose by 30, so I predict I win in OT by 7.5

Bullshi... beats on his 10 inch pipe dream
Bullish might have won on the road in last year's playoffs. Now he gets to win at home. His fans deserve it. Plus, if I can predict this, then the semis is a rematch of last year, but at the wrong arena this go around.

Semis
TF over Bulls

Yeah, still going to predict my team to win my fantasy prediction brackets. As I already mentioned, I have a bad team, so they will find a way to win. Plus, I decided to create a 'real' training program the likes haven't been seen in TF-land in many seasons. Apparently one is not supposed to buy 23 and 24 year old trainees, but as I said earlier, I don't really know wtf I am doing, so this should propel me to greatness....

Finals
TF over Dragons
Holy crap, it looks like I just foreshadowed something baller. Yes, my fake and completely BS prediction bracket has me winning the entire thing and promote back to NBBA. Why not? I finally am fielding a team in the playoffs that doesn't deserve to win, has no depth, and wouldn't qualify if I went through the season like this.... It just makes perfect sense that after under-performing this season and not being able to win on the road, I ride a massive road winning streak all the way to the promised land. Plus, Dragons and I should have met in the finals at least once by now, so in a season when neither of us really should, I will boldly predict that now is the time. Sorry Dragons, but in my fantasy-land, I get to promote when you were ever so close. Maybe next season.....


Anyone care to counter what will actually happen?

Looks legit. I am now writing up apologetic notices to my season ticket holders for the future loss in the Semi's...again.

My only regret about the playoff bracket draw is that my fans won't get to sneak batteries into darky's arena to throw at his players during time outs.

While they appreciate your donations, my Machines have eaten plenty of batteries during team brunch, so they're probably not too hungry for the ones you're throwing.

Edit: do you ever type something, hit "send message" and in that second before the page loads, you see the typo, and the typo sees you, and for a moment you lock eyes and then he escapes out into the world to injure thousands, maybe millions, with that extra o missing? Asking for a friend.

No no no.... THIS is what will happen...


USA vs. Machines

As much as I'm rooting for USA, the only way I see Machines losing is if they try to squeeze in a PON. Machines fears USA too much for that (combined with their constant doubting of their own team) and will PCT and as such will win a close game while pulling away at the end.

Machines + 12

Phantoms vs. Dragons

The Dragons look to avenge their early season fluke loss @ Phantoms (36158063) In these two team's only real matchup of the season it took an early foul out of Dragon's C and a injury to the his backup for Phantoms to win. This time around Phantoms is the one with injury problems. The Dragons maneuvered for this matchup so for their sake they better hope they win.

Dragons + 15

TF vs. Riverdogs

With TF's self-noted overhaul of his team I think he hurt his chances to win this game, not that he had that great of chances anyways. Riverdogs has what in my opinion looks like the best team in the division this season and I would peg him as my favorite to promote. That coupled with TF's moves is too much as Riverdogs wins this game in a run-away fashion.

Riverdogs + 15

10 inch vs. Bullish

In what should be the closest of the first round matchups, these teams are similar as both are built on great D and great inside games. I think either one of these teams would have a great chance of winning the conference final, but unfortunately only one of them can get there. I will take Bullish over 10inch has the home team as won each matchup this season. A nice close game all the way through though.

Bullish +5
