Okay, the news you've been waiting for, the postseason begins on Tuesday. This thread is only for the players who qulaified for either the promotion playoffs or the Champions League/Cup. Any new players who wish to join are welcome to do so in Crew Sheep League Season VIII, which will begin after the New Year. Due to there being no Champions league after season 5 or 6 also, the following players are all eligible for the current competition: Season V Champions League: beast01, Hamburgler03, CrewBeat, ZipSix Champions Cup: TonyDanza, 110toyourleft, DrunkandDisorderly, Nostradumass Season VI Champions League: DrunkandDisorderly, Nostradumass, beast01, CrewBeat Champions Cup: ZipSix, foozer, 110toyourleft Season VII Champions League: DrunkandDisorderly, foozer, ZipSix, beast01 Champions Cup: 110toyourleft, Crewster, Hamburgler03 As you can see, a number of folks qualified for both the Champions League and the Champions Cup. You cannot be in both. Those players must declare for either one or the other, either by posting your choice in this thread or by sending me a PM. Logically, the Champions League is the better choice, but theoretically, the Champions Cup might be easier to actually win, due to fewer players (possibly) and theoretically lower-scoring participants. (And of course the fact that TonyDanza is unlikely to play, though he's welcome, naturally.) Here's the list of the 18 players eligible to send in answers in this thread--- Champions League: beast01, CrewBeat Champions Cup: TonyDanza, 110toyourleft, Crewster Both Champions League and Champions Cup: Hamburgler03, ZipSix, DrunkandDisorderly, Nostradumass, foozer Division Two Promotion Playoffs: DAK77, jackmann, DhamphirLoki, DaKeeperMan Division Three Promotion Playoffs: danndamanny, puttputtfc, Swellster, chr1st And of course, the people who've qualified for both the Champions League and the Champions Cup need to pick one or the other. If you wish to keep your choice private so as not to influence others, feel free to PM me. The first of 3 rounds of questions will be posted in this thread on Tuesday.
PM's have been sent to everyone. Questions will be posted on Tuesday, and if everyone send their answers in, then answers will be posted on THURSDAY. Rounds 2 and 3 will follow in short order in this thread, so this will be wrapped up by next week.
The world, as far as the Mayan's are concerned, ended almost a thousand years ago, so they were way off in their predictions. Onward to the Champions Cup (I dont think a formal repsonse is required by me because I only qulaified for the Cup).
Sheep League Postseason Week 1 Questions As usual, don't post your answers in this thread, PM them to cleazer. Only the 18 players listed in this first post are eligible to send in answers. Everyone else, either new players or old ones, will have to wait for Season VIII to start in 2013. 1. name the best Crew assistant coach of all time 2. how many playoff games will the Crew win next year? 3. will the Galaxy play in MLS Cup again next year? 4. will Toronto be better than they were this year? 5. name a western conference team that the Crew always seem to beat 6. the worst stadium for the Crew to play in in the the history of MLS 7. the best stadium for the Crew to play in in the history of MLS 8. name a bird that cannot fly 9. how many of the eligible people will send in sheep answers this week? 10. Who will win Saturday's Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, Utah St or Toledo? Hawkeye Pierce vs James Bond 11. who has had more to drink in his life? (alcohol) 12. who has cut more people? 13. who has funnier one-liners? 14. who has seen more dead bodies? 15. who is more likely to go crazy? Remember, answers are due by Thursday this week!
So, normally when I think the questions are easy, I end up sucking. Commence destruction in 3...2...1...
I have an odd question. Does anyone know how this got started and when? Was it strictly for Big Soccer or did it come from somewhere else? Just curious really.
