Benchwarmer Championships

It appears the strength of the league is in the Martin Conference - with either Hoboken or Carlisle likely to be favored in the final series.  But Los Anaheim and Lake Wobegon will have something to say about that - and the playoffs have a different look this season without London in the final four.

 

Epstein Conference: Los Anaheim (81-69) vs. Lake Wobegon (85-65)

Something new in the McCartney Division, where Lake Wobegon overtook early leader Dinkytown around mid-season and withstood a late rush by last year's league champ, London, for their first trip to the Beatleball Playoffs.  The last time that Los Anaheim finished a week out of first place was in Week 12.  Yet, the division was tight the whole way, with all 4 teams finishing within 6 games of the lead.

 

Season series: Series tied 6-6

League Power Index Rankings: Lake Wobegon: 5  Los Anaheim: 9

 

Lake Wobegon Wins in 6 Games

 

Martin Conference: Carlisle (90-60) vs. Hoboken (94-56)

Carlisle went 12-6 in the final round of division play to fend off Alphaville and repeat as the Harrison Division winners - again.  They are the only team to win in the 4-year history of the league.  This time around, they'll face tough competition if they want to advance to the final round for the 4th time and potentially follow up on their 2005 League Championship.  Hoboken comes into the playoffs as the top team in the league.  Winning the division for the first time in franchise history, they grabbed a double-digit lead by Week 16.  The only chink in the armor might be the edge Carlisle held in the season series.

 

Season series: Carlisle won 8 games to 4

League Power Index Rankings: Hoboken: 1  Carlisle: 3

 

Hoboken Wins in 5 Games

 


BWB CHAMPIONSHIP : Lake Wobegon vs. Hoboken

Bring on the new blood.  In a season where Lake Wobegon became the first team other than London to win the McCartney Division, Hoboken is the first Starr team to beat Carlisle in the Martin Conference finals.  So, this sets up a first-ever title for whichever franchise wins.
