 Timão and El Taladro

Why are Banfield called "the drill" ?

In what Universe is Criciuma- Corinthians a balanced match. The latter
were indeed relegation threatened about 6 weeks ago, but have gone on a
tear (five wins in a row in the league), and also did well in the
Sudamericana. Criciuma ? Doing their best to ensure that there are no
teams from Santa Catarina in the Brasilerão next year. It is true they
should be the more desperate of the two teams, since they still have
prospects of staying up.

Anyway, the other match is apparently a derby, and I will go with the
Granate.

 Tchau!

- If life taught me anything, it's that anagrams never lie. Defies Juicy Satan vs. Cozy Gourd. This is no time to make new enemies, and gourds
look actually cozy as gnome houses. I pick *Godoy Cruz*.

- If this newsgroup taught me one thing, it's that Flamengo are evil
itself, while Internacional are nice (or the best team of the world, depending on who you ask). However, if this newsgroup taught me _two_
things, it's that I---well, long story short, I pick Flamengo.

Perfect way to approach the match that will decide my season, I know.

Results and standings


Tier 1
----
Werner Pichler 0-1 The Doctor (Banfield - Lanús)
Futbolmetrix 3-2 Blueshirt (Flamengo - Internacional)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
7 5 4 5 -1 5 The Doctor
5 5 6 7 -1 5 Futbolmetrix
3 5 1 4 -3 5 Werner Pichler


Finally Tier 1 breaks its duck against Tier 3. I will need an away win
against the Doc in the final match day to capture the title.


Tier 2
----
milivella 1-2 Mark (Godoy Cruz - Defensa y Justicia)
Lléo 1-0 Jesper Lauridsen (Lanús - Banfield)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
9 5 4 2 2 4 Lléo
6 5 4 4 0 5 milivella
6 5 3 3 0 5 Mark
4 5 4 6 -2 5 Jesper Lauridsen

milivella loses but somehow still retains a promotion spot. I really
should change the tiebreaker to "at the discretion of the gamemaster"

Mark-Lleo and Jesper-milivella in the final matchday. Hadn't I promised
Mark a home matchday where he would have Bayerns/PSGs of the world? In fairness, the other match in the tier should be extended the same
favor...




Tier 3
----
Jesus Petry 0-1 MH (Banfield - Lanús)
Futbolmetrix 3-2 Blueshirt (Flamengo - Internacional)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
13 5 7 2 5 5 MH
9 5 9 7 2 5 Blueshirt
4 5 3 5 -2 5 Jesus Petry

MH and Blueshirt secure promotion to Tier 2. Tier 3 next season will
have Jesus, Silver Skull, Homer Simpson and mil...erm... the team
relegated from Tier 2.

What is the tie-breaker? If Mark win 2-1 and milivella FC win 1-0, the
top 3 will finish level on points, goal difference and goals scored!

[It's actually number of picks, so Lleo would get the short straw in
that case...unless of course he picks and both you and milivella forget
to pick]
