The Southpaws kept up their blistering pace it what it appears is a stroll to an easy stone crown. Their sparkling run is over-shadowing the brilliant campaign of the Waffletown Syrups, as well as solid runs by the Nowhere Men and Port Ruppert Mundys. While there are plenty of games left for the top four, the Cary squad does not seem built for anything beyond the mildest of slumps.

Of the remaining three, the Nowhere bunch seems best situated for success, if they can close out the season with a miraculous run. The Syrups and Mundys, thanks to the wretched and unrealistic schedule routine that OOTP employs, will play each other 13 times over the last two month, including nine games in September. I've whined about it before, but I guess it is a feature that bothers only me. I just think that it would be easy to fix, and seems an odd quirk to be part of a game that claims to pride itself on realism. Ah, well.
