Playoff Watch - 2007

More mumbo-jumbo scenarios that will mean nothing come Monday when it's all hashed out.

Unstoppable Forces Division
The newly minted American controls his own fate here; will anyone be able to stop him? Would it be unpatriotic? Meanwhile, the Sox, Naps and Napes all find themselves in single-elimination land, and need the moon to be in Aquarius while the sun shines on the rings of Uranus. They're behind the 8-ball of the magic variety and it says: not bloody likely. And let's not forget the X factor in all of this, Michael X. Roberts - will his squadron wear the laurels or has he been handed a bouquet of pansies?
