;	Still a little early to be thinking about PLAYOFFS, but just wanted to check and see if anyone knows how many teams get into the B League Playoffs. I had heard it was only 4 teams from each division (8 total teams). Is that correct?

;	As it now stands, 8 teams from B, but that could change if we don`t get the full nine games in. If we do not get the full nine, we`ll expand the playoffs to 16 teams versus rescheduling that week. Everyone in C makes the postseason since they will only be playing an eight game regular season schedule. In A we`re going to take the top 6 and give a first round bye to the 1 and 2 seeds.

;	Tom, Did the playoffs change for A? I thought it was top 8.

;	Well shoot, in my opinion, lets drop that 9th game and go with a 16 team playoff for the B League. I think it would be more exciting to allow more teams to have a chance to compete in the playoffs and they still get that guaranteed 9th game. I`m not the commissioner, so its not up to me, but that`s just my opinion. Thanks

;	exciting, I believe we should earn our spots for playoff, top 8 it should be, if we don`t complete the season as it`s happened before so be it but we`re here to have fun, compete and earn our spots...

;	I think I would rather the 16 team playoff also for b league (partly because my team would actually have a chance to make the playoffs), but also in past seasons, its exciting because we have seen some surprises in the playoffs from teams that didn`t necessarily do well in the regular season. It gives all the teams more to play for at the end of the regular season. With an 8 team playoff, a lot of teams are knocked out of the race halfway through the regular season. It should be about getting better in the regular season, getting the kinks worked out, and then having at least 1 shot in the playoffs.

;	Personally, I agree with that idea but it`s up to the commish. I understand the reasons behind making the top teams work for position where only the top four make it to the playoffs, but no one is a pushover given time to work out kinks, etc....that would be the beauty of it, "anything can happen."
