The NC Playoff Race
At the quarter pole with most teams having four games under their belt, let's take an early look at the playoff race. The NC has only gotten tougher since last season and let's not forget a strong 12-4 +152 Sheffield Wednesday team failed to make the playoffs last year.That 5th loss for any team is sure to be fatal this season. NC East Sheffield Wednesday leads at 3-1 with the Bergen close behind at 2-1 and the Copenhagen Chargers a dead-level 2-2. The Downriver Seals got their first win and close out the division at 1-3. The early statement win by Wedneasday against the Bruisers is the only real in-division action we have seen so far. The Chargers went 1-2 in their tough tour of the NC North so far and it will be interesting to see how they match up in division play. STATUS: This is a 3 way toss up. Sorry Seals. NC North The St. Pauli Packers and Riga Smokers sit atop the division at 4-0. With the HAMBURG SEA LIONS(feels like shouting) and Hamburg Baltic Dogs tied for third at 1-3. The Pack have had a hard schedule to get to 4-0 while the Smokers are feasting on relatively easier opponents. Common wins against the SEA LIONS would also support giving the edge to St. Pauli at this point in the season. STATUS: The Packers should control this division but an argument can be made for all these squads in the North. NC South Social Distance Runners at 4-0, with the Northern Storm and Manta Rays at 2-2. dERBENT CONVICTS bring up the rear at 1-3. The Northern Storm is the only team to not feel the Runners wrath so far this season. The Manta Rays came out of the gate with back to back losses against the Weasels and the Runners but have put wins on the board against the CONVICTS and the Northern Storm to get back in the race. Here is a bold prediction:The Runners, with that gaudy 1180+ ELO will win this division. Status: Runners take the crown, but can any of the other 3 control the damage enough to get a wildcard? NC West Michigan Weasels at 4-0, followed by Vancouver Corsairs at 3-1, Minnesota Silver Foxes at 2-2 and the Minnesota Minotaurs at 0-4. Fun fact: The Weasels and Corsairs have captured 2 playoff spots for the West since season 56. That is how it looks now with Vancouver holding the final 6 seed right now. The Silver Foxes have suffered losses to both Michigan and Vancouver and will have to fight like hell to be a factor in the playoff race. STATUS: Weasels or Corsairs win the division, The other is in a fight for it's life to keep the streak going. Playoff seedings right now with record and PD 1. St. Pauli Packers 4 – 0 +124 2. Michigan Weasels 4 – 0 +115 3. Social Distance Runners 4 – 0 +106 4. Sheffield Wednesday 3 – 1 +42 5. Riga Smokers 4 – 0 +83 6. Vancouver Corsairs 3 – 1 +12 7. Bergen Bruisers 2 – 1 +10 8. Northern Storm(+55), Manta Rays(+9), Silver Foxes(-18) and C. Chargers(-37) all 2 - 2 |

There are not many bots now, which is nice. But I, for one, whenever we play a bot use a friendlies lineup where the weakest players play first... usually they are the developing players. So my PD is usually lower than others... yes. This year no bots yet, just that we are not being so good in attack as other years.

PD will decide whether I have to play in the wildcard round or not. Now, making one more tuddie in each game is easier than having to win one more playoff round. |
