LAST SERIES OF THE REGULAR SEASON (97-100): FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY, TUESDAY

Tim  (51-45)  vs.  Phil  (49-47):  The series that will determine the Pigs Division champion.  Obviously Tim holds the advantage leading by 2 games.  It basically comes down to if Phil wins 3 out of 4 (or sweep), Phil will take the division.  If Tim takes the series, or if they split 2-2, Tim will hold on.  Tim will also try to score 61 more total points than Nate over the final four games to claim the season points title.

Chris (47-49) vs. Andy (45-51):  Chris tries to hold on to the final playoff spot, while Andy would need to sweep this series to have a chance...but it would be interesting if he does in fact win the final four games and Bare and Nick do not win their last series.

Bare  (47-49)  vs. Dave  (45-51):  Bare aims to get back in to the final playoff spot over Chris (and hope Nick and Bones stay below him).  Dave, like Andy, needs a sweep to have a realistic shot.

Nick  (47-49)  vs.  Tom  (37-59):  Nick finds himself on the bottom of a current three way tie with Chris and Bare, but gets the advantage of playing the final four games against the league's worst team.

Bill  (54-42) vs. Bones  (46-50):  Bones must leapfrog three teams to get in to the playoffs.  Bill needs just one win or one Tim loss to clinch the all important first round bye in the playoffs.  But that's likely, so Bill is not playing for much, while Bones is playing for his fantasy baseball life.

Nate (57-39) vs. Bug  (52-44): Two of the top three records in the league who are pretty much locked in to their respective playoff slots face off in a mostly meaningless series.   Season points title on the line for Nate.
