League News

I am going to cut and paste from an email sent from Chad over with the Brahmas:

Killer-
throw it out on the blog that the Jaguars are no longer subject to forfiitting every game they play. Ivana just emailed me, and she has 10 full time players with a goalie who have all paid up legaue fees, and are ready to rock. So the Jags are back, in fact last week their games started counting.

Also let everyone know about the playoff format. Every team will make the playoffs, and will be seeded 1-10 based on how they finish the regular season. The 7-10 seeds will have a mini play in round with the 7 seed playing 10 and 8 playing 9. Once those winners are determined then it will be 8 teams remaining playing single elimination. We will have quarters one week, and then the next week will feature the two semi final games followed by an all star game, and then at 10 the championship match. Teams playing in the championship are not going to be allowed to send anyone to the all star game (unless something happens and players are needed). Then by 11:15 a new team will be skating the keg.


Killer's initial thoughts are that this is a good thing for the league. We have half a season left, and the playoff format is unveiled. I am sure some folks will offer resistance to this format, but it beats the shit out of the old format of playing one meaningless game and calling it the playoffs. These final 6 games will be interesting to see who ends up the number one seed.
