I wasn't predicting the potatoes would lose. I was merely stating that none of the other three would. The Potatoes are entrenched, in my opinion, as the 6th seed after today's games.

The only way they get a higher seed than 6th is by every other team losing. They've lost to all three teams, so if they end with the same record as any of them, they're the lower seed.

Ah ok. Yea, I really don't think that either of the other three teams will lose. But GCP has a tough game, though they are great gameplanners so they should be able to figure out a way to win it.

Ah, I didn't realize that either. I was making my statement based off the point differentials.

I suppose if the potatoes win and another team is upset, they could move above that team. But like I said, I don't see any of the other teams losing. They play some weak teams.

Yeah, the 3-5 teams should all win. GCP has the toughest non-conference game, going up against Austin (10-5). We've pretty much accepted that we're going to get the #6 seed, barring a pretty significant upset.

Good thing at least Detroit won't go in with that level of thinking. The medium level teams can spring upsets pretty easily in this league. Our matchup has a significant level difference but we're not taking them lightly, every effort will be put in to eliminate all chances of anything but a dominant showing by us to preserve our playoff standing.

Although I aim to stay in fourth, I'd prefer those matchups Kiev, Prague over GCP,BHB as we want to avenge those losses. We've already beat GCP and BHB once, give us Kiev and Prague

You can take 3rd with a big enough final game victory if ADD wins also.

We won't want third. We want fourth, which matches us up with two previous losses. We've already handled GCP and BHB, Kiev and Prague would be the remaining top five targets for us to prove ourselves. Assuming we win the first two round in the playoffs, this is an ideal scenario

1)Kiev
2)Prague


The winner we would be theoretically facing is impossible to predict. GCP/ADD/BHB all have a shot to be there, although I expect it to be GCP/BHB with BHB squeaking it...although it'd be a perfect setup for GCP to win it

Kiev, Prague who beat us and GCP who knocked us out last year for the title game?

Well I hope we play you too. I like beating teams twice.

The only team in this conference I think everyone else wants eliminated is Prague. Not because of the "fear" of playing them, but rather to shut you girls up. You might wanna consider that before assuming you win any games

Hey now, that was a good natured rib there. Don't turn it into anything more.

I may think that we're the best team in Alpha, but I'm not trying to piss other teams off. There isn't anything wrong with good natured trash talk. Which is all I was trying to do.

Your team had a target on it's back for beating us. Add in all of this forum bitching and it's just one more reason to "knock their ****ing head off" quoting myself previously. I have respect for Prague as a team, but that doesn't prevent from trying to destroy the team in the playoffs. Keep on proving the naysayers wrong, it's the joy of football. Detroit just took a stand against the haters, will you?

Whatever. So we're the haters now is that what you're saying? You wanting to knock our ****ing heads off isn't going to change how the sim goes down I hope you know.

Did I say you were haters? No where in my post did I imply you were "haters", I simply posted we defended ourselves from them today. I never implied you were in such a group, in all actuality Prague has actually given Detroit a lot of credit for it's season so far, so why would I do that? I claimed you were bitching over trivial crap, which everyone else is agreeing you are. Running up the score? Passing too much? Grow up. It's an online sim for Christ sake. Play hard and let the team speak for itself. Yes, people are questioning you. So what? It's a fact of "e-life". We're not going to come out and say "Prague is the best team in Alpha" if we don't believe it's true. I'll list this weeks power rankings as an example. Where does the top five go now? I don't believe Prague is first, we beat BHB, ADD and GCP so I guess no matter what where I rank teams I over-rank myself again. Aww shux.

Well you just said Detroit took a stand against the haters, so I was trying to figure out where that was coming from. I could only assume from the post that you were referring to us, which is why I asked if you were calling us the haters.

I wasn't implying you were there. Prague has been fine towards us. But many teams questioned whether or not Detroit was an elite team or worthy of being considered in the playoffs, we answered those doubts today. I called them haters but skeptics worked as well
