Second-Place Showdown

In honor of the 43rd President of the United States (heh, heh, heh), The Al Gore Cup is a forum for teams that finished second and most likely feel that they're more deserving than all of the other first-place teams to be in the championship bracket.

 

Teams are seeded 1-4 based on regular season records and play a best-of-seven semifinal round followed by another seven game series to crown the winner.

 

The winner receives a bonus of 1 million Benchwarmer Bucks.  The runner-up gets 500,000.

 

The 2013 Entrants (in order of seeding):

  • Corcoran Neighborhood (83-67)
  • Boone Central (79-71)
  • Palookaville (77-73)
  • Detroit (68-82)

 

Semifinals - Detroit vs Corcoran Neighborhood; Palookaville vs Boone Central

 

Finals - Detroit vs Boone Central - Season series: Detroit 4-2
