PIFF/PIML Highlights thru the Playoffs

Hello,
  We are heading into the championship games in both leagues, so lets get caught up with how the playoffs have gone so far:

PIFF:  The playoffs started in week 15, the Kreplachistan Rebels and Tuskestan Pickles got first round byes, while the Tea Republic Steepers beat the Scotslandi Kilters and the Svinksland Pillagers beat the Ninja Isle Eldars.
  The second week of playoffs saw the Kreplachistan Rebels beat the Tea Rebulic Steepers, while the Svinksland Pillagers got on by the Tsukestan Picklers.
  This sets up the Championship Game of the Kreplachistan Rebels vs. the Svinksland Pillagers.  This will be the second time that the Pillagers have made it to the championship game, the other time was the first season of PIFF in which they lost to the Grog Island Drunks.  The Rebels on the other hand have played in more than half of the championship games (this will make 4 out of 7) and is the only team to be the champion twice (2004 & 2007).  The projected score for the game is giving an edge to the Rebels by only one point.

PIML:  The PIML playoffs started last week and had the Tea Republic Boilers taking out the Tai Shu Trip'ems, while the Battle Cove Coasters beat the late surging Pesce Bay Savvy Sirens.
  So the first ever PIML championship game will be played out between the two heavy favorite from the start of the season - the Battle Cove Coasters and the Tea Republic Boilers.  Early reports heavily favor the Boilers however that projected score greatly depends on the performance of Chris Johnson for the Boilers.

I will get out the final All-Star totals as well as season All-Stars after the Championship Games.
