I&#039;m gonna do something cooler than predictions, and talk a little about the WDC.&nbsp; Right now the standings, along with forthcoming games and potential outcomes (ties notwithstanding), are:<br /><br />[font=courier]<br />BSK - .600 FLS, SPE, EBL (.375, .500, .625, .750)<br />SPE - .500 DMR, BSK, FLS (.313, .438, .563, .688)<br />FLS - .600 BSK, BBC, SPE (.375, .500, .625, .750)<br />BBC - .583 BYE, FLS, DMR (.438, .563, .688)<br />[/font]<br /><br />It&#039;s a complete clusterfuck.&nbsp; A couple games you can call, but BBC&#039;s game against us is huge for them, FLS&#039; has big games against BSK and SPE coming up, SPE is hoping to even the score with BSK next week... it&#039;s pretty crazy.&nbsp; Here&#039;s a quick breakdown of all the WDC games:<br /><br />So what are the stakes?<br /><br />[b]BSK[/b]<br /><br />- Losing against FLS probably loses them CC homefield<br />- Losing to SPE opens the door for them to lose their division<br />- Losing twice knocks them out of playoffs unless SPE, FLS, or BBC loses at least 2 games<br /><br />[b]SPE[/b]<br /><br />- Losing a game knocks them out of playoffs unless either FLS or BBC loses at least 2 games<br /><br />[b]FLS[/b]<br /><br />- Losing a game makes losing their division possible, and probably loses them CC homefield<br />- Losing twice knocks them out of playoffs unless either BSK, SPE or BBC loses at least 2 games<br /><br />[b]BBC[/b]<br /><br />- Losing a game knocks them out of playoffs unless SPE loses a game.<br />- Losing 2 games knocks them out of playoffs unless SPE loses 2 games, or BSK loses 3<br /><br />OK, I guess I will make some predictions.&nbsp; [b]GENEROUS[/b] predictions, because I&#039;m pretty sure FLS is gonna wipe the floor with all you suckers.<br /><br />[font=courier]<br />BSK: .500 - 3-3-2 (loss against FLS and SPE)<br />SPE: .688 - 5-2-1 (no losses)<br />FLS: .625 - 5-3-0 (loss against SPE)<br />BBC: .563 - 4-3-1 (loss against FLS)<br />[/font]<br /><br />This comes out so that BSK misses playoffs, which a pretty bold prediction.&nbsp; If I&#039;m feeling more timid:<br /><br />[font=courier]<br />BSK: .625 - 4-2-2 (loss against FLS)<br />SPE: .563 - 4-3-1 (loss against BSK)<br />FLS: .625 - 5-3-0 (loss against SPE)<br />BBC: .563 - 4-3-1 (loss against FLS)<br />[/font]<br /><br />This knocks SPE out, because BBC won against them last week.<br /><br />That said, it&#039;s real gay that a team with a .563 will miss playoffs, potentially against a team with a .188 (DMR if they &amp; EBL continue their losing streaks).&nbsp; I guess that&#039;s the perils of the conference system; maybe we need a Wild Wildcard round or something.&nbsp; Or really with 8 teams, it&#039;s not totally out of the question that every team makes playoffs and we switch to a division/conference/league system, with leaders getting homefield advantage (Masterbowl excepted of course).&nbsp; Just thinking out loud :) .
