We Could Clinch Next Week

With two games to go, we find ourselves in first place by a slim margin over the Mod Squad. Next week's games could determine our final place in the standings before we play our makeup game with the Terminal Digits. If we take care of business with the Dream Team and the Mod Squad knocks off the Terminal Digits next Tuesday, we clinch first place. We would be 5-1 and the Mod Squad would be 5-2. Every other team would have at least three losses or two losses and a tie. The worst we could do is finish 5-2 which would tie us with the Mod Squad. Since we beat them in head-to-head competition, we would win the tiebreaker and claim first place regardless of the outcome of our game against the TD's. If we win but the Terminal Digits defeat the Mod Squad, the TD's would still have a chance of claiming first place. They have played only four games because of their postponements with us and SWAT. Their record is 2-1-1. If they beat Mod Squad and SWAT, they will be 4-1-1 and we would be forced to beat them in our final game to keep them from overtaking us with a 5-1-1 record. If we lose to the Dream Team, we'll definitely have our work cut out for us. We would have to defeat the TD's and hope SWAT could knock off the TD's in their makeup game. So as you can see, losing to the Dream Team would put us in a most uncomfortable position. I recommend we avoid it.
