End of the 2000 regular season

League website updated!

Two exciting pennant races came down to the wire. Cooperstown and Racine each surged to within a game and a half of the conference leads in September, but both fell short and were eliminated in the last week of the season. Atlantic City also made a late push but were eliminated on the penultimate day of the season in an 11-inning loss to the Bluesox.

So it will be the Blackhawks versus the Vipers in the World Series! I'll be contacting woody5254 and Operation Shutdown to see whether they would like to take control of their teams before the series begins. We'll sim the series on Monday evening.
