I hope someone has graphics or can make graphics related to my latest graphics request that won't have anything needlessly to do with Photobucket, but if they don't want to help me or can't help me, then so be it, obviously, folks. Two of the teams basically only really need a sleeve patch removed and/or changed fonts, I think, if not three of them. The fourth team's looks and all can basically be however a potential designer might want to design them here, in truth.

Will write more later, I'm sure, if I'm not otherwise occupied and all, Lord willing and all. Such as being occupied with working on Lighting Up the Darkness's thirteenth chapter, for instance, that is. Until the next post, then, I'll close this. CD out.
I'm using 2-2-2-2-1 for my best-of-nine IPA Pro Cup now.

The reason that I prefer 2-2-1-1-1 over 2-3-2 for best-of-seven is that I feel that at no point in the series should the lower seed play more home games than the higher seed. I do see the upside in the 2-3-2 in that it cuts down on travel. However, it seems like home field doesn't matter as much as it used to. Plenty of road teams have won Game 7s in recent years, and look at the 2019 World Series where the home team lost every game. Even in this year's NBA first round between the Clippers and Mavericks which went 7 games, the road team won the first 6 games. Two years ago in the Stanley Cup Finals the Blues beat the Bruins in Boston in Game 7, and quite easily.
