I guess I will not get an friendly invite and get my own bye as the 16th seed!!!


Lol. And yeah, what the heck? The best 4 teams get a bye, so what, they would have won if they played the worst teams anyway.

i say if they were so good they wouldn't need a bye, how do we know their good? What criteria was used to determine their ability?

But since it's your tournament u run it the way u want - but plz don't try n sell other teams short - n no i didn't go team by team to see every1's team lvl - i'm here to play so let the games begin - we'll just have to wait 1 more round to see just how good they r - n most likely -(since their all so good (more like higher lvled then some teams) by the time that rolls around they would've lvled up even more n causing the lvl gap to grow even more), hopefully next round they aren't seeded against teams with "less abilities" but like the sayin goes "Any Given Sunday" in our case ne "GLB Game".

Well, if Prestige or Legends played Blair Woods, they would probably win 10 teams out of 10, that's all I was saying.

DL ignore the complaints, you are doing people a favor organizing this and if they dont like it they can forfeit and talk about what they would not have done anyway, the true good teams will play it no matter what. I wouldnt care if the DOTs got the Legends the first round, to be the best you beat the best, period, first round or title game it doesnt matter.

I looked at personnel, overall ratings, stats, and matchups.

cool, n with that u felt they should have a bye? we'll i'm sure other teams have comparable personnel, ratings, stats, idk about matchups - because this is a tourney so if their not matched up how can u evaluate them n what teams did u use to evaluate them against?

Basically, everyone should play in the first round regardless of "ability" n i'm not sayin the work u did isn't appreciated but at the same time i and other team owner's r wondering how 4 teams get a bye, n as for the best team win's - the best team will win but it would be better if all teams involved would start out at the same time, this is my opinion, some may agree n some won't - maybe the 4 teams that got bye's may ask to be put back in the round - idk - but if it was my team i wouldn't accept a bye, i'd let the chips fall as the may.

I did not want to wait 5 more days for just 4 more teams to join. I felt that we needed to start, and the 4 best teams, in my opinion were given byes. Their was no favoritism, as I seeded my own team 6th, when they debatebly could have been anywhere from 1-4. I wanted to start this thing, so they got byes.
