    			| The 2020 Benchwarmer League Tournament - Murderers' RowQuarterfinalsIn the 2020 season shortened by the Covid-19 pandemic, BWB is 
		  restructuring the league playoffs to include all 16 teams in the 
		  league.  Division winners are given the top 4 seeding spots and 
		  the remainder of the field is ranked 5-16 based on winning percentage 
		  during the 2020 regular season.  We've already played 
		  round one 
		  and are down to 8 teams remaining for the league quarterfinals.   The eight teams that lost in round one move to the 
				Bottom 
				Feeder Open - where, for one year only, the winner will have the 
				top spot in the 2020-2021 off-season transaction order, 
				including for the Redistribution Draft.  In the 
				quarterfinals, the four winning teams will move on to what in 
				normal seasons are the conference championships and the league 
				final.  The four losing teams will move on to the
				Gore Cup.   The eight teams advancing from the first round have been 
				reseeded based on their round one seeding (division winners 
				remain on top).   Our Remaining Teams (in order of seeding): 
            France (33-22)Ruth and Gehrig (32-22)Palookaville (31-23)Walking Dead (29-25)Crumpton (29-25)West Coast (27-27)Cold (26-28)Chicago (26-28)
