Which, in a way, is too bad. I hate false hope. One of the benefits of being a KU Jayhawk is the regularity in which the Jayhawks get unceremoniously upset in the NCAA basketball round of 32. It's pretty great, actually. No lingering on to be eliminated in the second weekend. Either bow out quickly and let me get on with my life, or make it to the Final Four. Sporting has spent most of the last decade as a playoff lock. That said, they've often spent the last month and a half going from bye week to on the road for a play-in game, but they're approaching the line from the safe side. This whole just under the line, will they make a run, thing is shit. I don't need this in my life. I got other things going on. To be honest, this is the whole reason the Toast threads came about. It's a mathematical measure of when fans can stop worrying and just get on with their lives - even though some, notably Crew fans, refuse to give up when clearly toasted, but that's their problem. I want Sporting to real off 13 of the next 15 points - or - go into another losing skid and just get it over with.
Good thing, or we'd not have a team anymore. That said, we're burnt toast. But we're brewing up some Lazarus butter.
And I posted in the 2018 thread with a calculation of it not being time for this thread. Then AndyMead called me horrible and many people repped him. I'm getting complaints from both sides. In points per game, second is closer to nineteenth than to first.
Educational video on toast number 2 in a series of 2. Long before there was MLS... long before there was myself and @Knave there was not only toast, but toasting contraptions of better quality than modern machines existed. Learn more!
Both Monumental Sports and Entertainment operated teams lost in the semi-finals. The AFL ArenaBowl is tomorrow. I don't know why you misspelled 2018 Champion, Valor.
It shaping up that to get in the playoffs in the West, you'll have to have 2 more wins than you would need in the East. Portland isn't even above the line yet, even after the eventual win over Vancouver tonight.
