PIFF Highlights and All-Stars 08 Week 15

What an amazing finish to the regular season. Four teams had the chance to make the final championship playoff spot with a win, all of which lost, which defaulted the Steepers into the playoffs because they scored more points throughout the season. This week the Championship playoffs pit the Pirataly Vampirates vs the Tea Republic Steepers and the Svinksland Pillagers vs. the Snotvia Snotknockers. The Consolation Playoffs has the first round match ups of Tsukestan Picklers vs. Harbor Coast Red Burns and Scotlandi Kilters and Kreplachistan Rebels.

Game of the week from last week: The game of the week last week was the Maties and the Kilters. The Kilters put on an impressive showing preventing the Maties from making a repeat appearance in the Championship playoffs. The game was close but the Kilters held on in the end.

Team to raise the sails: The Berry Island Rum Runners started the season 1-10 but won 3 out of their last 4 games to finish up their season. It turns out to be too late to make a push for the Consolation Playoffs, but it seems that the team is starting to work better and will have a foundation for next year.

Davey Jones Team: The Kreplachistan Rebels finished the season scoring the most points in PIFF however they failed to make the Championship Playoffs due to their inability to win when they needed to. Their coaching was lacking this year and hopefully they can recover next year.

Brawl of the week: All eyes will be turned to the Championship battle of the Pillagers and Snotknockers this week. Both teams have played a solid season so far and they both would like a PIFF Championship (actually none of the teams in the Championship Playoffs have won PIFF before). This game will be close.
