For a quick breakdown: The American League East is still undecided between TEAM and The Horsemen. If the Horsemen win this week, then they win the conference. The last American league play-off spot is still between Team Fred, The Outsiders, and The Untouchables. In The National Leaugue Hannah and Barack's Commandos have clinched The Northern Conference, and George Washington's Slaves and Le' Napoleon Brigade have clinched the play-offs but both still have a chance at winning the conference. The Legion of Doom was statistically eliminated from the play-offs this week, which means that the winner of The Better Than All of You Vs. The Right Wing Week 10 match-up will get the last spot in the Play-offs. Unless there are 3 teams coming out of a conference, you will not play a team from your conference in the first round.

It is also worth noting that the fate of The Horsemen, George Washington's Slaves and Team Fred are all in there own hands. If they win this week than they will have the respective conference or play-off spot that they are fighting for. The other teams battling for those spots require not only a win on their own part but also a loss from the team that they are competing with.

TEAM said...

How exactly are tie-breakers determined? Also, how are playoff seedings determined? If three teams from a conference make the playoffs (which is a real possibility) then two teams from one conference are playing each other, unless you seed the AL & NL together.

OFFICIAL B3 PRESS CONFERENCE:
[In attendance: Pablo, Tyrone, Uniqua, Tasha and Austin].

Pablo: Although we are very grateful that our team is in the playoffs this year, we would collectively like to address both the commissioner and vice-commissioner. . . KISS OUR COLLECTIVE COMPUTER-GENERATED,CARTOON A**ES!

Tasha: Yeah, who the f*ck thinks that myself, a hippo, one of the fiercest, most feared and dangerous animals on earth would die so g*dd*mn easily! Utter B*llsh*t!!!! Hey Commish and Vice: why don't you get your f*cking heads out of your a#*es and start reading the f*cking Encyclopedia Britanica! You'd learn something. . . you F*CKS!

Austin: Yeah, speaking of heads out of a#*es. . . how'd you both like for my paws to claw up your f*cking a#*es while I rip your balls off with my f*cking teeth! Although, I think you both may like that so I'd rather just rip off your f*cking heads and sh*t down your necks!

Uniqua: Maybe if you pr*cks spent some time not only reading your stupid, f*cking comic books, but watching some television besides your sh*tty sci-fi, geek-fest shows, you'd know about our characters and what we can do? Have any of you f*cks seen "Samauri Pie". . . "Mighty Knights". . . "Snow Fort"? ? ? Think not. . . you b*tches!

Tyrone: And one last thing. . . we . . . .having trouble. . . breathing. . .

[In walks Darth Vader]
Darth: I find your lack of faith in the Commish and his Vice. . . disturbing. Please apologize! All of you!!!

Pablo, Austin, Tyrone, Uniqua and Tasha [collectively]: We are sorry that we slandered both the Commish and Vice, whom we believe are doing a MAGNIFICENT job this year! We THANK YOU for all the time spent and well-thought out battles!

Vader: That is much better. . . I believe with that said, the press conference is now officially over.

[Vader follows the entire Backyardigan clan out of the conference room. . . Pablo peeks back in (like a Backyardigan does at show's end)

Pablo: Hey, it's all good. No offense. . . . SUCK IT B*TCHES!!!

Vader: PABLO!!!!!

Pablo: Coming Vader. . . .

I think somebody needs a time out. Where did they learn such language??

Yes, we are fully aware of what these said animals are capable of doing. However, the Backyardigans are preschoolers. They have not yet grown into their abilities. This is why in the wild; the adult animals have to protect their children. So chances are in battles as vicious and bloody as this season's were, children would probably be killed just that quickly.

We are just reporters. We only document what we see happen. It's a shame that the children on B3 are not guarded more carefully.

hmm...Tasha is now "one of the fiercest, most feared and dangerous animals on earth"? I thought she was just "a Nickleodeon Cartoon Hippo that sings 'I love being a princess' for your 4 year old twins." My bad...

Josh the Commish said...

I saw the Backyardigans once. It was a pretty good show....... For me to poop on.

To answer Team's questions: Tie-breakers are determined first by head to head match-ups. In the case of the Team/Horsemen situation since they both beat each other once (this can only happen in a "rival" situation) the edge is given to the team that won in the higher point week (in this case The Horsemen of Apokoplips). If 3 teams from 1 conference all make the play-offs then the winner of that respective conference will play the weakest team of the 3, and the winner of the conference that is only sending its winning team would play the middle ranked team from the other conference. The AL & NL will not play each other until the finals.
