Question: When names are doubled up in the same bracket does that mean the team has a bye?

I'll take that as a yes then? Only the fcuking FVSL league would have four teams in the same bracket have bloody byes. Brilliant. What does one win at the end of it all, Mickey mouse ears?

Intelligent. You must be on the Pakenham cup draw committee. You're doing a bang up job by the way. Next year you should have a round where everyone doesn't play. That way, all of you can say you've at least made it to the second round...of something.

What does it matter if every team in the bracket has a bye (happens in 2 divs), or 3 of the 4 teams in each division have a bye? There still has to be 4 teams come out of the first round. Who cares where the byes are?

Or is it just more esthetically pleasing to your eye to see 1 first round game in each division?

I guess next year they'll just have to tell 4 teams they can't play in it so everyone plays in the first round.

...or you can just have those 4 fcuking teams play each other. Novel idea in a tournament innit? Is this your first? Anyone else want to rationalize why there are 12 teams with byes?

As in this year were there are 8 teams waiting to fill 4 spots in a 16 team tournament?
Good idea K. Why didn't they think of that?
Luck of the draw numbnuts, either you get a bye, or your one of the eight that plays a first round game.

Forgive me if this is going too far.

Are those really numbnuts? How can you tell? They look more like shavednuts. Or droppysacknuts. I guess they could be all of them at the same time?

You tell me, Skip. Were you the one who took a picture of Coopers nuts? Which of these stunners was yours?

Please stop. My sides hurt. Really. They really really hurt.

Don't bother with your coat the car is waiting.

Yoda, dearest, I am curious why it's called round one with 12 teams watching and 8 playing? It is also incredible to me why this would have to happen considering you actually have 24 teams wanting to play for Mickey and his cold nuts. So why cut it to 16? Wouldn't want to hire outside help to adjust the tournament bracket, eh?


Tell you what I think...

Need to ask: KNVB, have you ever done a tournament bracket?

There is no other way to do it than the way the FVSL has set it up. And back when you were still playing in the FVSL, the VMSL used to do the same exact thing.

Now go play in your precious little VMSL forums where noone knows your name and leave us FVSLers alone.

Yellow cards on both the beaver and the pills w/ extra long sack. Who has a sack that long with such tiny pills, anyhow?

Anyone else notice the beaver is shaped like a mushroom cloud?
