Welcome again to another edition of Div II.4 Survivor

In last week's episode Great the 8 clan was leading the Big 8's 4-2. On the Big 8 side, the McMornings were up early and got the worm before the Eagles and shot them down . While the pwnstrz could not find the cash and were mortgaged by the end of the alphabet ....

So now it is down to 3.....Great 8 - 2 and Big 8 -1....

In Thursday night's Sweet Sixteen episode you will see -

Flash Mashers at NBBA Dog River Riverdogs (6-8) -The Mashers starters took Tuesday off to rest up for the Dog who are fighting for a 5/6 slot. Even if they finish 6th it looks like their relegation opponent is rebuilding so they can put out a tough lineup. On the downside the Mashers are unbeaten in real games and the Dogs were extended to OT in their last game where they did rest a few starters. Even matchup and can see this going to OT...going with the Riverdogs as to sloe the Flash are at home and have a little better Game Shape (and can afford to Normal if they want.....)

EDH Wolves vs Div III Ducksnorts (8-6) - The Wolvves lost a key player in Playfair last week so are scrambling as they are in a tough Division fight though they did rest against the Mashers on Saturday night. On the other hand the Ducksnorts are in tough Division Battle as well and it looks like they are beat from all the games to date. The Wolves at home will hunt the Ducks down in this surprisingly close game.

The Closers at Div II Meridian Hill McMornings (7-7) - The Closers face off with the McMornings which downed the xxx last week. Both teams are rested and it boils down to who wants it more, the McMornings have HCA but the Closers have a little more depth and Game Shape so I see the Closers ending the McMornings night.

Game of the week

And for the Big Picture we have a close one

NBBA - 5

Div II.1 - 3
Div II.2 - 0
Div II.3 - 3
Div II.4 - 3

Stay tuned for prognostications after tonights game

Probably a smart move.

Wow, gonna quote you and show my wife she will be so surprised.

I think the Riverdogs are one of three teams left in the cup that I would be the underdog to... I think I'd also have a hard time beating Milwaukee, and Upsyndrome will win the cup regardless of what order he knocks us off in. But like you pointed out I can't afford to give it my all in the cup as much as I'd like to.

That said I still think I have a fighting chance in tonights game. Wish me luck :-B

Good luck tonight. I know I was fortunate you drew such a tough week.

I think I'm about to lose which I would be fine with except that I'm kicking myself thinking that it was a good idea to guess the Dogs would go with a Balanced offense. Stupid. Wonder what the score would be had I not chose that.

Still one good quarter left to play. Let's home I can overcome the six point deficit.

Been watching all our games....well mine not so much. Rooting for us go, go, go.....!!!

The Yazzie missed layup at 39 sec was killer....

Yeah I think I'm done. It was a lot closer than the score will show though. Really it was a one point game until the end... Really mad at myself I tried to go with a GDP guess. I'm convinced that made the difference.

Edit: Real good learning experience though. I think I know a bit more about what I need to do to my team if I want to compete with beefy look inside teams. First step is not put Balanced offense as GDP. His bigs still ran through my Shot Blocking though.

Couple of tough losses for our league tonight.
Best wishes to the Wolves going forward.

Thanks, but I drew the Upsyndrome and he has a gimme on Tuesday night....

Welcome again to most likely the final episode of D.II 4 Survivor.

In last weeks games, the Riverdogs drowned the Mashers in tight affair (if only they did not try GDP). And once again the McMornings are the nemisis to our league and got the early start and held on against the Closers.

This left only the Wolves on the Tourney Island this week....

So for this week's game....

(BB) EDH Wolves vs NBBA Upsyndrome (14-3) - The only chance the Wolves have in this one is if Tonya Harding sneaks into the locker room prior to the start and takes out the opposition .....

(BB) Game of the week...

And for the Big Picture we have a close one []

NBBA - 5

Div II.1 - 1
Div II.2 - 0
Div II.3 - 1
Div II.4 - 1

The way the matchups are set the semis will probably have only NBBA teams.....

I hope everyone enjoyed this season's edition of D.II 4 Survivor and see you next year.
