If UMBF wants to set it up, The Pirates will play the Prime Timers.

If it were me making the picks, I'd just have the OPL guys rank their teams and we rank our teams, then match up 1 vs. 1, 2 vs. 2, etc. To me, that seems the fairest way to do this.

But that's just me...

I have no problem with Orlando vs. Orlando.

Are we targeting a specific time frame to get these done or is just whenever?

I don't think we have a specific timeframe right now. Obviously, I'd like to get the matchups all hashed out first, then start scheduling.

I think we missed getting in on this, but if you need us, BSB is in and even has some Advanced AI set up - so we should only lose like 60-10 instead of 70-10

Never too late. Glad you guys are in. That makes an even 16.

What we can do is reserve the day between the 9th game and 10th game for this. Rank the teams after 8 weeks and then set the match up according to the first 8 games record.

That would work too. That way there's no guessing involved w/ the new teams from AAA.

My thought on games is the following:

Each League selects a Captain (say the reigning Champs).

Then each game is worth different amount of points...and each captain takes turns selecting Teams to play that game.


So lets say we have 10 teams from each league.....we then could have the following:


Game 1 --- 100 pts

Game 2 --- 75 pts

Game 3 --- 65 pts

Game 4 --- 60 pts

Game 5 --- 50 pts

Game 6 -- 45 pts

Game 7 -- 40 pts

Game 8 -- 35 pts

Game 9 -- 30 pts

Game 10 --- 25 pts


So there is a coin flip...and 1 captain gets 1st pick, then each captain after the 1st pick gets 2 picks in a row.

Capt 1 can select any team from their conference and put them in any game....say MEM Game , then other Captian for other league gets 2 picks. He could concede and say screw it...we cannot beat MEM lets give them 100 pts and lets put our best 2 in Games 2 & 3. Then the USA captain gets 2 picks...and can decide whether USA #2 team could win games 2 or 3 or maybe select game 4.

Just one of billions of crazy ideas my brain is filled with.

We have Cincy, DDL, Philly and GB in our first 7. Any chance we can base it on something else

Nice idea. Makes it a little more interesting IMO

Any matchups that anyone really want?


Please avoid Parma vs Scranton. That would be pretty pointless.

And if you want to make sure Scranton is in, just tease Naut for a bit.

By tease do you mean post rude things about his sexual impotence and his receding soon to be receding hairline or not quite so pointed attacks?
