Wednesday Night
Atlantic - MadSkillz, we're looking for a win to lock up a playoff spot against HappyPool. So we can expect their all-star alex to...nope wait, no-show. OK let's get uh...Pete come on down! ...OK he's not here. Chris you're here right? Wow...team consisted of Choppy_boy, sniper_aims, gaz, alvie, nice_bad_boy, sassycasi, and king_hustler...that's not a week 14 big-match team. Needless to say, they lost 4-3, it was over in 6. MadSkillz now 7-7, they finished with 8 wins last season and got in, they'll need it against UnitedPool in week 15. Not locks for the Playoffs YET. Though if the season ended right now they'd be #7. Even bigger match...Outlaws visiting PoolFiction. Now here's what a PO win would do. It would clinch the AL Conference for the Outlaws, giving them the #1 seed. It would eliminate PoolFiction from the Central Division race, giving Quez the Division and since QZ can't beat the Outlaws (PO owns head to head), well QueBallz will be your #2 seed. But it gets better...PoolFiction is 10-4 and since they beat LPL, the only league who could tie them, well PoolFiction is your #3 seed. But speaking of LPL... See LPL is 9-5, uh they absolutely demoralized DreamPool so even if DP goes 9-6 and LPL loses to go 9-6, well LPL gets the #4 seed. So now the bottom half of the seeds are up for grabs, if the Outlaws win. Well, Full_Blast and MJ made sure they made their contributions beating Mark and Bizzy respectively. Jammy in game 3 against Austin, Jammy early 8. We'll do the whole re-rack business though and all is well in Ireland. Jammy wins it's 2-1. Joe in to try and tie it against Roob_van_nistelrooy...Roob got Glazered. 2-2 as Joe ties it up. game 5, it's the w3t version of PO Chris, and it's...well it's just some aimer who I think MLP should ban named wolf_cubby. Just dried up Chris. It's 3-2 PFN, first lead of the match, only lead. The soccer version of PO Chris, aka_chris_soccer against Killahsoul, and Mike got a lot of balls left on the table. 3-3, Mick vs....Jamie. Dan not around. Mick narrowly misses a 3ball combo attempt, ball hangs bottom right. Jamie, later in his run, hahaaaaaaa you gotta bank nana nana...oh crap. Off the bottom rail, top right, oh the force is with you. After a beautiful position shot to get to the 8, Jamie and the Outlaws down PFN 4-3, and ensure that the only time they'll meet again this season can be the AL Championship, as PO gets the #1 seed, PFN the #3, etc. as I explained. Outlaws 13-1, winners of that same number of wins in a row, 71/26. That, is consistency. Congratulations Pool Outlaws, your American League Season Champs.
Central - So, results out of the way in their usual messy fashion, HappyPool is 7-7. They lost to XPool so they're still not 4th place. XPool however must win, because if HappyPool wins over DreamPool, and XPool loses, it's byebye XPool. However, if XPool wins they are guaranteed a spot because...there would be a 3-way tie for 4th at 8-6 if HP wins, and it's that 1-1 against each other stuff. So since XPool has 50 wins, HP and DP would both need 51 to knock them out. Easy right? Well, being that they both have 46...only 1 could do it. If DreamPool does it, well they're 9-6 and it doesn't matter what XPool does. Unless...XPool gets swept, CueKeepers beat PFN, and SuperbPool pulls off back to back sweeps, that'd make a 4-way tie at 7-8, then ONLY games record counts, and SP would have 51 wins to XPool's 50...Wouldn't that suck for XP? Tiger_Arse really shoulda changed that name before the game...PoolFiction is 10-5, QueBallz are your Central Division Season Champions, they get the #2 seed and will play the #7 team in the AL. PoolFiction gets the #3 seed, they play #6 with the winner to face Queballz vs. #7, so what do you do for Week 15? Already in, CueKeepers need a win, ah, knowin Mick he'll have us take out our anger from the PO loss on the Keepers. Sorry Brandi ;)
Mountain - Pool Hustlers do-mi-na-ted the Bearskins. They win 6-1, the only PH loss coming from _SweetObilivion_. With this win, PH is now 11-3, tied with Absolute Finest for #1 in the Mountain, a win Week 15 over Pool Pimps would lock up the NL Mountain for the Hustlers, it would be their first ever Division title, and head to head would HELP them. Season 3, Smoking Cues and Pool hustlers 10-3, 55 wins, SC beat the Hustlers, and head to head hurts PH. Season 5, opposite. By the way it's PH's 10th straight...Big big streaks. LuckyPool, just about the same to CHP. Must-win for both, LKP wanted it much more, 6-1, only loss was Colonel_KC. So LuckyPool is 8-6, a half-game behind HotShotz who will play Thursday with Bearskins, and if HotShotz beat Bearskins, LuckyPool...you guys are out, again. But there's hope.
Pacific - In case anyone's wonderring, I had a phonecall just before doing the NL parts (around 2:30, long-distance friend, don't ask -_-) and now I'm really tired, so this'll be rather quick. Bearskins are eliminated from Playoff contention. David_26ok is their new All-Star being that pudsybear had it taken away after an aimer accusation, and I almost took another 5 minutes to go laugh there too. 3-10 on the season, but...they do have a dominating win over BNR on their resume. Now they play bracket buster against HotShotz on Thursday. ChampionsPool however not eliminated, tied at 5-9 and a game and a half back with BBM, from Pool Legends, they're still in a situation where PL loses out, CHP wins over Break and Run, BBM loses to...Bearskins, CHP in, PL out. Well Legends have PoolMasters Thursday and Regs. Good for CHP right? Well, PM's shaking. They've apparently lost blue83 due to issues with a PM Admin, will it hurt 'em that much? *looks at the lineup* Dynamite...Ehkohz......matt...Jim...uh...mrsr...Nah, PM won't miss him that badly. PL still gonna have a match on their hands.

Playoff Moment: Staying with Season 2...Just because Kenny likes to talk trash on my beloved Red Sox, Season 2, Round 2, SCPG @ PoolFiction, Kenny the ump, DQ's jammy_hure for sitting between games, and boots him, PoolFiction STILL wins 4-3. They would eventually go on to the World Series and lose.
Thursday is gonna be one bonkers shootout night of MLP, hey who thinks this is a bad year to be a closer in MLB? Actually, who thinks it's a bad time to be an NBA player... lmao. Money-hungry freaks =)
