| Hey Bo I agree that's going to be quite the bloodbath in that group.........If you're looking for some good entertainment School and DST go at it on Tues night at 8 at Crosby.....I'm not sure about the quality of ball but based on past history there will definitely be some drama......good luck boys and girls the playoffs certainly will be fun.

| When's the rest of the schedule coming out? Don't tell me we're waiting until after the final game to publish... there's one game left, and there is no possible way for teams to position themselves in the standings.

| A dead pool, also known as a death pool,is a game of prediction which involves guessing when teams from a strong division will win the cup. Which of those 5 will be drinking champagne on Sunday night? Bistro

| In retrospect in “death pool” did kill themselves. The final game had two weaker teams from the other division.

| When you say weaker do you mean can't bench press as much free weight? Or are you using the term weaker as in "this team is so friggin weaker, they have won the championship 6 of the last 8 years!"

| If weaker means winning the regular season and the championship, I hope we continue to get weaker and weaker! I guess TL/SF must have been pretty weak too to beat DST from the stronger side (according to daump) by nearly 30 runs.

| NL - read the playoff format.
They won the connie...and proved they could beat a championship team when it counted.

| Plus, NL, if you would have won another playoff game or two during the round robin, you wouldn’t have been stuck in the position of playing Wild Wing first thing Sunday morning. Don’t fault the playoff format for the game... if you're trying to lay blame, have a look in your mirror.

| You have to admit though, that perhaps The School should not have had to be in that position at all. They earned a spot in the Championship round for a reason and Wild Wing was in the Consolation for a reason. Granted it was exciting and Wild Wing were jacked to say the least. To allow a team to "play their way in" makes for a good story but detracts from the 25 games played during the regular season. Just my 2 cents.
