Tonight PLAYOFFS. We are short on players.

Also: the reason why Good Sports was taken out of the league. WAS US, by way of Rub the Fish:

"Hey Donald,

I just wanted to drop you a note regarding our situation with the Sports Connection. As you know our bar, the Last Drop, is directly around the corner from Crossroads. Crossroads as you will remeber had an 11-0 win against this team the week previous to ours. We are friendly with many of the guys on their team and they in fact have told us that only three of the sports Connection players showed up and just signed the paper. No match was played and therefore Croosroads automatically received the 11-0 win. With this team already having two 11-0 losses, not even calling us to let us know they would not be playing, and the gentleman I spoke with telling me to forge his captain's name, I must say this team jeopardizes the integrity of the league. The player refused to accomaodate any offer we had regarding the match that night even after leaving wondering what the story was at 8:45. Under normal circumstances I would have no problem making up the match with this team but even if we won 10-1 we are still not on pace with other teams. This comes down to cheating and lying. I'm sorry to drop this all on you again but I felt the new knowledge from the Crossroads team pretty much ends all speculation regarding this team. In addition, I have guys that travel from Cape Cod, Walpole, Beverly and VERMONT, for matches and for them not to notify us previously, or even that night is downright rude. Anyway, I trust you and the crew will make the right decision but I just wanted to reitterate my points. Thanks for your time Donald. I'll be in touch.

Sincerest thanks,

Brett Ricci"

We finished in 4th Place with 65 points.

24 pts behind Big Dogs in 1st. (89 pts, W 10-0)*
19 pts behind The Sevens in 2nd. (84 pts, W 6-5)
7 pts behind of Rub The Fish in 3rd. (72 pts, 0-0)*
We finished in 4th place (65 pts, W 8-3)
9 pts ahead of Castlebar in 5th. (56 pts, L 5-6)
14 pts ahead of Bad Mechanics in 5th. (51 pts, 0-0)*
16 pts ahead of Sevens 2 in 7th. (49 pts, L 3-8)
Good Sports becomes a bye week.

The league took away all points scored against Good Sports. This means we lost 18 points.

We came in 4th place and so play the 1st place team in A1 which is Rubbernecks out of My Honey Fitz Irish in Malden.

I am not positive about this, as there seems to be some problems with the tally. Big Dogs got 10 points but they should have had a bye week and Bad Mechanics and Rub the Fish didn't send in there scores.
