Very interesting scenario has developed in the East.

West Bend-Grizzlies-Warriors are all tied at 8-7 with each team having a 1-1 record amongst each other. Warriors grab the 7th spot with 418 pts scored, Grizzlies are 8th with 342 pts scored, and West Bend is in 9th place with 326 pts scored.

Unless West Bend outscores the Grizzlies by more than 16 pts next game, they either need the

1) Grizzlies (against the Hitmen) to lose and West Bend (Omaha) to win.
2) or DC to win and grizzlies to lose. (they would then be in a 2 way tie and they beat the grizzlies head to head).

If all 3 teams win or all 3 teams lose West Bend is likely out because of the tiebreak?

What makes this all so interesting? DC plays San Francisco who has the same GM as West Bend!

(note - I don't think Kingofva would throw a game, he seems like a standup guy. Just an interesting development)




No way would I throw a game but your right it's an exciting night of games. Those 1 point losses vs DC and Orlando is biting us in the butt. I hope we(West Bend)can squeak in. Regardless we are having a great season and living the dream. We need to protect the QB though. I got hurried 21 times and sacked 9 times yet I managed to throw for 350 yds 70 comp %. I only had 2 td's to 3 int's thanks to the hurries though. We have to figure out how to protect our QB. Plus it sucks when you own the QB and your game plan is the reason for him being a punching bag lol



Yeah...what is his confidence...like 70?

FWIW 4 of our 5 losses were to the best 4 teams in the Eastern Conference. Granted 3 of them weren't close, but the better teams won those games. Thanks for the respect and props, but I don't see us doing much damage in the playoffs this season, but we will fight like hell trying.


For what it's worth bro I've never had anything but respect for the Pound because of our history. I think we're in the same boat this season except we jumped out of the gate hot and have since cooled down a bit. Since we've hit the top tier teams in the league we've struggled but IMO that's due mostly to some incredibly bad luck with turnovers. We've managed to be in every game so if we can get the kinks ironed out we'll be in good shape. This has turned out to be a very good league minus a few gutted teams and I'm looking forward to seeing some of the other top BBB#2 teams up here next year to replace them.


Thanks man! I don't need to tell you what I think about your team. Especially after the whipping you put on us last season and with the class with which you handled it. I have enjoyed this season a lot and it was very hard. I'm looking forward to trying to keep building this thing up and continue to improve.

Man - don't count yourself out yet. Some of those losses were very early in the season and you guys have come on strong at the end of the season. Right now I'm still putting the Bears as the favorite, but I think almost any of the playoff teams can make a run this year. Probably the only 2 I don't think can win the whole thing are the Grizzlies or Warlocks (of course it all depends on who makes the playoffs - DC included). They're good and could upset a team, but I can't see them winning 3 straight in the playoffs.

Think how we're feeling about our 2 turnovers in the endzone and 3 pt loss to the Grizz...

It will be interesting to see how it works out in 2 days.

Ooo, this is way closer than we (Grizzlies) wanted it to be. French Lick's D really came through and managed to somehow overcome 5 interceptions and a lost fumble. I still am not sure how we lost that game, but I gotta hand it to the Whorns. GG guys. Now, Ill be sweating the entire 2 days until the Hitmen game. Thats gonna be a doozy.

I wouldn't sweat to much, seems our offense decided to start the offseason early.

Would you guys like some airline tickets to Hilton Head? You could get an early jump on your golf game and that way we wouldn't have to play you guys again.

LOL...it's all part of my master plan to lure you into thinking we suck. I told my QB to throw as many INTs as possible until the playoffs to catch everyone off guard. I actually set our opponents' CBs as Reeko's primary and secondary targets just to make sure it looks believable.

nothing to see here
