While it's possible that they will both continue to be totally dominate in respect to everyone else, I suspect what Vexxet said in another thread may prove to be prophetic: Originally posted by vexxet
....The separation will be a lot smaller than this season. It is going to be a slugfest all over the place. With luck, good management and a few of those "funny bounces" going in the right direction, I can foresee a scenario where there might be as many as 5-6 teams having a legitimate claim to life within Zeta's "upper echelon" next season, as parity rears it's ugly head and "Any given Sunday" is more than just a catch-phrase to explain the inexplicable.
