    			| Second-Place ShowdownIn 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 2006 Entrants (in order of seeding): 
            Dawns (100-50) - 2005 runner up - perhaps an even 
            more disheartening 2nd place this year - winning 100 games but still 
            finishing 2nd in the Sutton Division.  League Power Index: 3Wayne (92-58) - Tight race all season in the 
            Seaver.  Power Index: 4Fort Marquis (89-62) - Clawed to a first-place 
            tie in the Blyleven, but lost the playoff to South Philly.  
            Power Index: 6Napoleon (70-80) - Division champ in 2005 - fell 
            off this season.  Power Index: 8 Semifinals - Napoleon wins in 6 games, Fort Marquis wins in 7.   Finals - Napoleon vs. Fort Marquis.  Napoleon took the season 
          series 4-2. 2006 Winner: Fort Marquis Green Army Men     Playoffs main page |
