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 2011 Entrants (in order of seeding):
- Philadelphia (80-70)
- Atlanta (79-71)
- Moscow (77-73)
- Austin (74-76)
|

Semifinals - Austin vs Philadelphia; Moscow vs Atlanta
