Thoughts: Bolderslev pretty much popped MCRG's bubble with their win, now only the unlikely scenario of a Venice loss in week 16 can put them in the playoffs. Helsinki almost put a second loss on the Dynamites, but they survive and in doing so basically have locked up no worse than the 2 seed, and if Oslo were to get knocked off in their next two games, they will be the top seed in Alpha. Barcelona can put a padlock on the 3rd spot, they won't move either up or down. From the looks of it, most seeding in Alpha is pretty much static from this point forward, only an Oslo loss in either of the next two weeks would really shake anything up. I think the lower seeds in the Alpha bracket have some favorable matchups, I think the Magic Dragons match up well with the Doom in round 1, and I think the Red Lights shouldn't be too disappointed by the 7th seed because the Dynamites aren't an awful draw for them. Over in Zeta, Krakow vs the Freebirds, Lyon vs the Spartans, and Jacksonville vs the Assassins should all be major blowouts in round one. Newark and The Wall will, however, be an entertaining matchup, with the winner being thrown at Krakow's feet in sacrifice while Lyon and Jacksonville engage in a battle royale to see who gets a 2nd chance at Krakow.
