TOPIC: 2011 Final Standings & Playoff Predictions |

| We are coming up to the end of July. Most years, that would mean that nearly 75% of the games would be complete, and we should have a pretty good idea which teams will be at the top of the standings. However, this year we’ve only played 60% of the games so far, so it’s a little more difficult to establish trends.
With that said, here are my predictions for the 2011 Final Season Standings and Playoffs.
The top 7 spots are pretty well locked. I predict DST will once again win the President’s Trophy for best regular season performance, but TL will be a close second.
1. DST Output 2. Travel Lovers 3. Nvision/Ed's 4. The School 5. Stephen Tar 6. Summit 6T6 7. Crupilaw
The next 9 teams will duke it out for the final 3 Championship playoff spots. I have listed them in order of their chances of getting in. Kelseys/DBS/Griffiths have the best shot, but look to be only percentage points ahead of the other 6 teams. An unexpected win or loss by any of these 9 teams will shift things around dramatically, which means it should be a close race down to the final game of the season. And BTW, the 2010 Champs are not out of the mix by any means. If the Arms can go on a run like they did last year, anything can happen.
8. Kelseys 9. DBS 10. Griffiths - 11. Remax 12. Grocer 13. Wing It 14. Plumbers 15. Arms 16. Bistro
The last 2 teams should be considering who they will be drafting next year. 17. MAS 18. Harding
Whatever happens, it looks like the Conny side of the playoffs will be strong, with the potential of having the Plumbers, Arms, Grocer, Remax and other tough teams playing each other. Any team who is thinking that they’ll waltz through the Conny Playoffs for a crack at the Championship play-in game should probably re-think their strategy. I can see those teams just pounding each other, to the point that whoever emerges might not have any gas left in their tank come Sunday morning.
Good Luck to All!

| I agree with your opinions above with the exception of the Plumbers and Grocer, they definitely will be fighting it out for the bottom 4 spots. Crupi will also drop out of the top 7, lack of defense.
Travel Lovers Nvision/Ed's DST The School Stephen Tar Summit 6T6 Bistro
MAS Remax Wing It Arms Kelsey’s
The rest are neither here nor there.

| Gimme, you're unreal. Stop posting stupid crap on the forum. You chirp on here like you're chirping someone from Romania in PS3 or XBOX baseball.
Like really, grow up.

| DON'T BE HATING!!!!!
KELSEY’S HAS A GREAT TEAM OF GUYS THAT GET ALONG AND DON'T FIGHT WITH EACH OTHER, NOT LIKE SOME TEAMS IN THIS LEAGUE.
BIGELOW IS PROBABLY STILL CRYING THAT HE LOST LAST NIGHT TO KELSEY’S AND HAS REALIZED THAT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO COME IN FIRST

| Kelsey's is a solid team with a bunch of Gentlemen on it. Last night's game (like nost in our league) was very good and tied after 5 innings. Good job pulling out the victory. No need to be an ass about things, as far as I know Bigelow is not on TL.... and the last time I checked, we were still in first place in the division.
See you in September New Guy !!
Cheers, HP

| Wow this should get interesting. I have seen Ricky and the Travel lovers boys in action calling them out is probably not a smart thing to do. They can backup their talk on and off the field.

| I wouldn’t want to play MAS right now, 4-1-1 in their last six. After having a tie with Travel Lovers and killing The School, I don’t think they are coming 17th. It looks like they might make some noise in the championship side.

| 'This is where the man in the white shirt relays stolen signs from' was the best sign I saw last night at the Blue Jays game. If they Jays are stealing signs then MAS will win the trophy.

| Power rankings {not standings predictions}
1. DST {nice pick up of a ringer} 2. Travel Lovers {too much power} 3. Kelsy's {play some top teams} 4. Nvision {consistent} 5. Summitt {who really is on that team - too many spares to judge talent} 6. Crupi {on a great roll - maybe moving higher} 7. School {hopefully they will be back in the Fall} 8. DBS 9. Tar 10. Remax 11. MAS {climbing} 12. Wing It 13. Griffith 14. Bistro {dropping fast} 15. Arms {starting to put it together} 16. Grocer 17. Plumbing {might end up 18th} 18. Harding {too much talent to be here}

| Not to take anything away from the DBS, they're playing better ball for sure. But 1 of those wins is a forfeit and one other came against a team that looks like it only had 8 players. I'm much too lazy yo actually try and look if those rankings are legit or not. They have put themselves in position to play out of the 8th seed and avoid the big teams, but I don't see them getting past TL, DST or Summit in the round robin. I'm more concerned about Crupi or Kelsey's.

| It's about that time , time for everybody to shut up and just play some ball. Alot has " talk the talk " but only a few will " walk the walk ". Let's go baby.

| What are the teams in trouble? I don't want trash talk or negative responses just info. MAS, Crupi & Wing, Griffith and Remax will fight it out for the last two playoff spots.
The upcoming MAS/Wings game is a big one.

| I'm seeing ALLOT of new teams (and veterans) on the forums late in the season hyped about how their team is blowing out opponents and not allowing any points.
My question is...
Have you REALLY played a tough team yet? Have you REALLY been challenged?
(No disrespect to certain teams..but some are new and others are rebuilding.)

| With the layoff it's hard to get excited about the playoffs. We have not played since August 17. Rain sucks!!!! DBS is the most improved team of the year.

| Man what you talk n bout? That is all I have heard for the past 3 years is those stupid rankings! Go ahead and underestimate Remax, if you want to as they almost beat us last year! I guarantee you they would beat DBS by 21 hands down as they are legit man! You will see at some point this month!

| Gimme is a person who professes an ability to perceive information hidden from the normal senses through extrasensory perception (ESP), or is said by others to have such abilities. Once again you are incorrect with your predications. Crupi is out so is Griffith. DBS may be out and Kelsey’s may win the whole thing.

| Dare I ask a serious and humbling question: Do anyone think that Sumitt can repeat? History says the answer is no.
