Clear-cut MVP, MLP news, World Series participants

That is MJ. 2 game 7 wins, knocking off BOTH ends of the PM-PL rivalry in consecutive matches. All DreamPool has had to do is get 3 wins, and they've got arguably the most clutch player in MLP this entire season to deliver the win. Now, does that mean he'll win every time? No, because if it goes 7 against Pool Outlaws who won tonight they'll have Jamie waiting for him. Captain vs. Captain to go to the World Series, oh how often do you see it?

Also it's quite apparent the merit-based division idea will be in place for season 7. The bottom group is likely to feature completely new leagues, and maybe a few teams that have dismal seasons. According to the big response though there may be 1 or even 2 new divisions. Well, let's not go that far. It's still in the developmental stages but of course if I hear anything, to here it goes.

That leaves us with 2 matches to determine who goes to the World Series as this season mercifully ends just in time for Christmas, Feliz Navidad Prospero Ano Y Felicidad or something like that. As you can tell I don't speak spanish. The battle of the #1 seeds PoolFighters and LPL. So where is it to be played? Duh. Advanced Lounge. PF had a better record, etc. So uh... What happened last time these 2 faced off uh we had a little this a little that OH! LPL went up 3-2 and timed out due to not having anymore players. Who played the last game? Ogie of course. He ALWAYS has the last game of the season for LPL. Maybe thingswill change but does LPL have enough to make it to the World Series? I doubted PF in the pre-season I won't make that mistake in the post-season. PF to their first World Series in... Oh I dunno, 6? Sounds fair.

DreamPool and Pool Outlaws square off in Rebel's Loft to determine who will advance for the National League. Either way MJ was gonna have a story here. He was in BBM, PO, now DP, it's 3 degrees of MJ/MVP. This too will be 7-gamer and if not, 6. Every DP match so far has gone all 7, why stop now? I think DreamPool has a better team top-to-bottom, but at the tail end of the games when Jamie and Mj face off, if it happens, that's going to be one incredible matchup. I've said the winner between BBM and PO goes to the World Series, but after maybe over-thinking it, I'm gonna go ahead and call DreamPool making it to the Series. Either way, great great matchup in the making.
