Assunto: I.1

I don't think you have anything to worry about. Six point lead with 4 to go is insurmountable with your team. You could probably run your second camp and still take 3rd.

Alright. The battle for 4th is coming down to the wire. This should be exciting

Atomics 75pts
Betamax 75pts
Wildcats 73pts
Psychos 72pts

Remaining schedules (my prediction):
Psychos - High Headerz(L), C.Cosmos(W), Corona(L), Dead Pooks(W)
Wildcats - Betamax(ooh,L), Corsairs(W), Dead Buckeyes(W), Atomics(ooh,?)
Betamax - Wildcats(W), Firehoses(?, never know what to expect from the Firehoses), Magic Kicks(W), BRBombers(W)
Atomics - C.Cosmos(W), Corona(L), Dead Pooks(W), Wildcats(!?!)

That would put us here:
Atomics 81pts (with one to play)
Betamax 84pts (with one to play)
Wildcats 79pts (with one to play)
Psychos 78pts

Damn. I think it's willmott's to lose. Unless RunnyOnion can win on Sunday. That would make things a whole lot more interesting. In the end, I really think I'll be playing the Wildcats on the last day of the season for 5th place.

Nice analysis. That makes it all the more difficult to decide how to play these next two games. I'd love to conserve energy in the league and go all out at the ChL championship...it would be fun to win two international cups in a row, and it would be really cool to secure a CWC berth for Team USA after their great run in the NC this year.

But can I beat the #1 Japanese team, who has better players anyway and has played 34 league games on very low (while going 38-0-0 in league play)? I'm basically playing the entire Japanese national team! Sure, I'm at home, but I have to beat them by two, or beat them 1-0 and win the shootout. Is it even worth it to conserve energy for that?

save some energy,you never know,you can do it,we gonna beat Canadiens team in the finals....

YOU CAN DO IT.. Love the analysis Tujague. Funny how my destiny is in my own hands.

My prediction:

You guys lose all of your games and get no points (even the ones you play against each other) - I win all of mine and retake 4th!

Your game vs willmott is definitely the lynch pin. If you can pull it off, everyone is still in the running for 4th. And our final game could decide everything.

And of course this is soccer, so anything can happen. I didn't really like giving the Psychos those two loses. I think he could upset one of them.


Good luck with that, zomg

You're just saying that because you want me to play you on low tomorrow!

I told you the Psychos could upset one of them Well done, Mr.Bateman. That certainly makes things more interesting. If the rest of the games go as expected, we would both end up with 81 points. What's the tiebreaker? Ah. Goal difference and then Goals. I have you in both of those

I think Tuesday is the day that willmott puts me away. I have the damn Coronas. I would have a tough time competing if my players had 100% energy. No way I can win that with my team running on fumes. Maybe the Firehoses can pull off a bit of an upset to keep things tied. Please?

Speaking of the Firehoses, his goalie's scoreless streak ended at 985 minutes! That's got to suck losing it so close to 1,000.

Ha. I told you the Firehoses were unpredictable. Nice win, xivam

So where do we stand now?
Atomics 79pts
Betamax 78pts
Wildcats 76pts
Psychos 76pts

Remaining schedules (my prediction):
Psychos - Corona(L), Dead Pooks(W)
Wildcats - Buckeyes(W), Atomics(ooh,?)
Betamax - Magic Kicks(W), BRBombers(W)
Atomics - Dead Pooks(W), Wildcats(!?!)

Looks like I'm now defending 4th!?! What a crazy yo-yo season. I think the worst I can finish is 5th. Unless Runnyonion beats me 10-0. Please don't do that.

I still think the Betamax edge me out for 4th. Wildcats probably take 6th. Psychos in 7th. Whoa. Team USA is in a very respectable 8th place and could catch the Psychos since the High Headerz have nothing left to play for. That would be a nice trick.

On what day after the season over, relegation matches and League Cup starts?

Looks like I'll be playing a relegation match- wish I would've saved that energy from my late season push, but I had to at least try to avoid it.

I'm not sure how I'll fair but I'll give it the ole college try. If not it's back down to II for hopefully only a short stint

Ugh. Two consecutive 1-0 losses on games where I outcontrolled and outshot my opponents, and both on goals after the 80th minute. If you could stop jinxing me with predictions of 4th-place grandeur, that would be cool.

Good game, marsrover.

I can guarantee you that there will be no more 4th place predictions for you this season.

But you do have 5th place locked up

Oh, and Congrats to divoch on his second title. Is that right? It's only two? It seems like more.

willmott, this has been a horrible finish for you. 2-3 in the last five. Damn. Ever since I mentioned the ridiculous streak you were on, your season went in the tank.
