If you have any run blockers let's try to get them on the same team as the best Powerback in GLB history...so far. K?

Senior League Championship Preview and Predictions
With the dust of the first playoff game settling, the Eugene Elderly are set to challenge the Saskatoon Sleepers. Saskatoon beat the Wrinkles 38-7, taking advantage of turnovers and controlling the clock in a fairly defensive battle overall. The Elderly crushed the Retirees 31-7, holding their productive offense to only 160 yards and 7 points. The hapless Retirees completed 28 % of their passes and ran for 2.3 yards per carry. Eugene was in cruise control early, running the ball 51 times as they were on offense for 42 minutes of the game.
Saskatoon Offense vs. Eugene Defense
Eugene's strength is in their tenacious defense, particularly in their rush defense. A great deal of pressure comes up the middle with their S* DT, Bunker Buster, who has 79 hurries to go with 15 TFL on the season. Their DE Storm Hendricks has 18 sacks on the season. The Saskatoon QB, Ser Percival, has a lot to match up against. In a season where he has been remarkably efficient a poor game could go a long way towards an Elderly win. Saskatoon's main strength is their running game. Though depleted by the loss of S* HB Max Power, their other main back, Death Tank, has picked up the pace admirably. His 3 TDs against Washington paved the way to the finals matchup. Boy HB Rusher provides a change of pace that has devastated past opponents. If Eugene can tackle well and force Saskatoon to go to the air, their pressure can do the work to hold the Sleepers to a below average performance. If Saskatoon can run free, then the Elderly will not be able to keep up.
Saskatoon Defense vs. Eugene Offense
The Saskatoon defense is #1 in every statistical category, an absolute monster that has held opponents to under 7 points 8 times this season, taking 7 games to allow their first TD. They have been scored on in the past, but have shown incredible consistency throughout their undefeated season. They have had 58 sacks on the season contributed by a variety of players. Every player on the field is a threat defensively. CB Test Interceptor leads the league with 6 INTs. Eugene has two QBs, and has struggled in the air, barely making the top half of teams statistically. Their real strength has been their run game, focusing on league leading HB Juwan Butler to open the way for them. Saskatoon must shut down Butler to win the game against Eugene.
The Prediction
The last time these two teams faced off, Saskatoon trounced the Elderly 24-0. Eugene has not lost since, rolling through every team to face them. They have not always won big, though, and on paper Saskatoon clearly seems to be superior. It will take a perfect game from Eugene, and a poor one from Saskatoon, but an upset is possible. In the end, though, I have to go with consistency. Saskatoon will finish the first undefeated season in Senior League history, and claim the title of the only undefeated team in Season 16, beating the Elderly 28-3
Everyone else, feel free to chime in with your picks.

Some mighty teams have fallen hard so far in this season of playoffs and so Eugene steals the show 13-10.

I do too.

Last time Butler played them, he was held to 24 yards. Hoping it's different this time I've changed up his running style all season to see what's best.

Something fun to watch for the offseason. Code it to run automatically and run over the 3 days so picks come in at certain intervals (interval would be 3 days divided by how many players in draft). Require people with Legends to declare for the draft by last day of season. Allow people with less than 30 games left on a Vet to declare for draft and it will auto catch them up to Legend status immediately prior to draft.
Rank players some how (maybe on career stats?) and try to mimic a real draft where certain positions get taken with a higher priority (and also a team won't draft 2 QBs with other needs).
If you get drafted, you start season on 100 chem. If you skip draft, you can try to sign as a FA the normal way, but you start season on 0 chem.

I think the way you beat this is to have Auto-renewing contracts for players of active agents.
Yes, that would mean that a current stacked team could continue BUT that would change a lot over time. New players would join non-stacked teams, building more stacked teams.
Plus, even active agents may retire players during a season to get Flex back.
A draft is a good idea but is probably more impractical from a coding point of view.

I'm past the point of thinking Bort/Corn are up to doing major overhauls (which is what a draft-able senior league sounds like), but there are other ways to improve senior leagues. It's amazing to me people care about these leagues, but some do, so GLB should see this as an opportunity.
Allowing users to pay 100 or so flex to sign up to coordinate a senior league team would be interesting as well. You could sign up as OC or DC, be put on a waiting list (like team purchases) and be placed on a random senior league team for the year. The random pairings of OC/DC could be pretty funny to see in it of itself. GLB makes money, senior league games become a little easier to watch, and it should be easy to make happen, win-win-win.
Incorporating a draft into senior leagues would be pretty cool too, but I can guarantee that will never happen.
