Okay so very meaningful games tonight to determine who is in for that final 8th seed and also what the seeding and matchups are for A League Playoffs. Here`s the possibilities for the 8th seed:

Sharks: Win vs. Magnums and win vs. Rejects and they are in. Lose vs. Magnums and win vs. Rejects and they are in. Win vs. Magnums but lose to Rejects then we have a 3 way tie and it will come down to point differential in games played between Chaos/Sharks/Rejects. Sharks are currently at +5, Chaos is at +5, and rejects are at -10 so if sharks beat Magnums and lose to Rejects then they are essentially out because they would drop to at least -4. Lose vs. Magnums and Lose vs. Rejects and they are out. Sharks COULD tie both games and they would make the playoffs. Bottom line it comes down to Sharks vs. Rejects. Magnums game almost meaningless.

Rejects: They have to hope for sharks to beat Magnums and then Rejects have to beat sharks by 16pts.

Chaos: They make the playoffs if Sharks lose both games or if sharks win vs. Magnums but lose to Rejects by less than 16pts.

This is exactly why I refused to break down those scenarios last week. Waaaay too much to think about.

Comes down to the last game of the season. Adam, any insight on the seeding? 2-7 seem to be still up for grabs also.

For the other games here is the breakdown of each scenario:

If Magnums win and 7pt Spread wins:
1) TC
2) Magnums (mags and collision have same win % but mags get head-to-head)
3) Collision
4) Wolves
5) Badboyz
6) 7pt Spread
7) Novacaine
8) Chaos/Sharks/Rejects

If Magnums win and Novacaine win:
1) TC
2) Magnums
3) Collision
4) Wolves
5) Badboyz
6) Novacaine
7) 7pt spread
8) Chaos/Sharks/Rejects

If Magnums lose and 7pt spread win:
1) TC
2) Collision
3) Wolves
4) Magnums (tie badboyz but win in head-to-head)
5) Badboyz
6) 7pt Spread
7) Novacaine
8) Chaos/Sharks/Rejects

There is only one person that I know of that accurately breaks down playoff possibilities at the end of every season. LOL

If Magnums lose and Novacaine win:
1) TC
2) Collision
3) Wolves
4) Novacaine (3 way tie with Magnums and badboyz but would have +7 differential among 3 tied teams)
5) Badboyz (-1 differential)
6) Magnums (-6 differential)
7) 7pt Spread
8) Chaos/Sharks/Rejects


And there are your scenarios

Thats a breakdown right there...Big games tonight.

and who would that one person be??

I`m no snitch. I`ll let that man reveal his identity.

Its stat boy fa sho

i`m not sure if you`re talking about me locs, but i didn`t do this breakdown. besides, if i did take the time to break down the scenarios again, i`d definitely take credit for it.

if you were talking about somebody else, then nevermind anyways.

what does everyone think will happen tonight??


I`m going with Sharks winning both. 1) they have the magnums number. magnums have never beaten them. 2) with playoff chances on the line and the fact that chuck has said this is the last time sharks will play together I think they will have all their ringers make the games.

Also think novacaine destroys 7pt spread.

Damn, I thought it was you Kyle. You let someone take your hustle man.

I say sharks beat mags.....lose to rejects Chaos makes playoffs.

7pt wins

meh, i figured i`d let bun b sort things out at the bottom of the standings. let me know when there`s some real analysis to be done and i`ll write something up then.

my man kyle on the boards.. must be a bad of poker... haha

Kyle you play poker?

Cody you play poker?

What the heck is a "bad of poker"?

you know what poker is?

meant to say bad day..

Learning, the hard ($$) way.

I don`t even know whats bingo

Kyle is a Poker All Star and I`m the Blackjack king.

cody: ya, i play some poker from time to time. learning can be tough (and sometimes expensive), but it`s definitely worth it.

dre: haha, no poker today, at least not yet. just a slow day at work.
