1) South Texas – (12-0) – PRV 1 –Rolled over Nic Cage, The matchup with San Antonio could determine the #1 seed for the playoffs.

2) San Antonio – (11-1) – PRV 2 – The Heat have back to back games against top notch competition in South Texas & Riverhead. A split could still get them the 2 seed, but San Antonio has their eyes on the top spot & upsetting STR could get them there.

3) L.A. – (10-2) – PRV 4- Knocked off Riverhead & are breathing down San Antonio’s neck for the 2 spot. LA can score with any team in the league, they have a cake walk into the playoffs & should do some damage.

4) Riverhead – (10-2) – PRV 3 – The Blue Waves have lost 2 in a row & have 2 more tough opponents yet to face. Fall any further & they may not get a home playoff game.

5) Lynchburg – (9-3) – PRV 5 – Lynchburg is rolling through the easy part of their schedule, if the chips fall right for them they may get a home playoff game.

6) Dayton – (8-4)- PRV 6 – The Devil Dogs are just hitting their stride, & should win out, but their game against Minnesota might be interesting.

7) Gotham – (8-4) – PRV 7 – Gotham should get to 10 wins which should be enough to get in the playoffs, but nothing is clinched yet.

8) Minnesota – (8-4) – PRV 8 – Have the inside track on the 8 spot at the moment. The matchup with Nic Cage will determine who gets the final spot in the playoffs.

I just assume not start the playoffs against Dayton. Riverhead will have a tough time rising up against the remaining big boys, so we could weasel back up to 4. I doubt LA loses, but if they stumble against either the 7 or 8 seed, then we'd win a tiebreaker against them. I'd say we have a solid chance of getting back to the 4 seed. We suffered through the tough part of our schedule while barely getting to know our teammates, so we deserve a slow nice break now. You guys keep beating on each other

No disrespect intended for Minny but they will probably lose 3 if not all 4 of their remaining games whereas nic cage could very well win 2 of their last 4. As for Gotham we stand a good chance of winning 2 of our last 4. This would put it where we finish 10-6 nic or minny finish 9-7. As you've put it the match up between Minny and Nic will determine the final spot.

In reality the top six teams are in a category among themselves regardless of how well we finish up. I think we've beaten the teams we were capable of beating and the teams that beat us won when they were supposed to have won. It would be nice to dish out an upset or two and beat Dayton or Looters BUT...

Nic's next 2 games will be 1-1 for sure. Then they play Gotham and Minn. How do they guarantee a win over either of those 2? So they'll be 8-6 heading to those games.

Minn will lose 3 of their games. That's 8-7 and play Nic in the other game. They MUST win that game as much as Nic must win it.

The winner of that is in and the loser out. That's why noone is predicting it much. But most think Minn has a slight edge.

Gotham is in by merely beating Tucson to get their 9th win. If they lose to Nic, then Nic coul edge out Minn. But most think Gotham is better. That said, we've seen many upsets so far.

Well the good thing for us is I believe I have the D AI worked out and running the way want it to run. I have some minor changes to make but I thinkk it will get better for us ove rthe next few game. I know we can pull out 2 of 4. But I want to try and upset and get us to 3 out of 4.

We are a team that doesn't quit. We got our asses handed to us several times over the past few seasons and we come prepared week in and week out.

At some point however, the GLB Gods have to smile upon us and give us an upset win. could it come against a better Dayton or Looters?

Also, don't let Nic slide under anyone's radar... they're a steadily improving team week in and week out so trust me we're not looking past them either.

An upset or two isn't out of the question. As I've been stating all along the top six are in a seperate category and you guys have a heck of team.
