The rules clearly state the number of games between opponents have to be equal. Vanilla knew what was up, thats why,he was making adds like a mad man. He was trying to keep up with your boy but he couldnt. Tell him he needs to step his game up if he wants to take me down next year.

One I thing I'll admit is fricked up is not ever know the true playoff scenarios. One of the awol commissioners shoulda have taken 10 minutes of their time and clarify that.

That being said, WORD TO YOUR MOTHER frickING MOTHER VANILLI FGT.

Because it was said that a 3 way tie would go to points. So he was trying to either win or beat you in points. He did not know that Los Lobos would get beat until the last day and Lobos had him beat on points. Once Los Lobos lost, his win should have been a moot point. Like you said yesterday.

Additionally, if Lobos would not have gotten beat, there would have been no clear hierarchy of head-to-head I believe. 3 way A beat B beat C beat A triangles would necessitate that the next tiebreaker be used. So of course he was trying like hell to win/accumulate points for a potential tiebreaker. But he still should be in based on the stated rules as of Lobos loss. Unless I'm ignorant to where the tiebreaker was stated to be something other than head to head.

Link? If they indeed state that, and that in the absence of equal games, it goes to points. But that it reverts back to head to head at any point that a team advances based on the points. If it says that, then Vanilla Ice definitely has no case. Just shitty luck that he fell victim to such terribly arbitrary and non-intuitive rules but definitely not unfair. Everybody could have educated themselves to that risk beforehand. Can you show me where the rules clearly state that?

Otherwise, this is total chicken shite, and he should be refunded his money if he is going to be withheld from the playoffs in lack of accordance with the rules.
