It seems like a lot of people didn't put very much thought into their answers. Right now there are only four teams within reasonable grasp of first place, and we're almost 40 games into the season. So if you picked someone who isn't Calgary, Helsinki, Toronto or Quebec you probably suffered brain damage at some point in your life, or you're 11. Vasteras, Riga, Davos and Seattle rightfully received 0% of the vote. Most of those teams are out of the playoff picture and Davos, while good enough to make a shot, certainly can't win the Victory Cup. Then we have a massive insult amongst our fan base to Jason Glasser and the team he's put together. The Calgary Wranglers, the team that is currently in first place and has many upcoming trophy winners with stupidly good stats, is tied with the NEW YORK FUCKING AMERICANS for 7.69% of the vote. You the people think that Calgary's powerhouse is on footing with the second worst team in the league. Congrats. Next we have a tie between Toronto and Cologne with 15.38%. I totally get the Toronto vote, they're only 3 points back of Calgary and they definitely have an argument. Cologne on the other hand is a good 20 points back of Calgary. They'll get into the playoffs, but they aren't going to win the Victory Cup. So we have a couple of retards who picked their own team without looking at the standings page. You'll be statistically eliminated from the Victory Cup in about a week and a half, so great job. Solid vote. Next we see Quebec with 23.08% of the vote. Again, I see the argument here. Though the Meute are in 4th place they sit only 4 points back of the first place team and have a game in hand. The Victory Cup is not out of their reach by any means. Finally we have the league favorite. The Helsinki Titans won the poll with 30.77% of the voters backing them. Helsinki is a strong option as well. They currently sit in second place in the league standings, just two points behind Calgary. The message I want to impart on you people, the message you really need to understand, is please do some research before you make stupid statements. It took me 15 seconds to look up the data I used in this article, and all of you could have done the same thing. I understand that the New York vote was a joke, but the Cologne picks were awful. It reminds me of those people who posted that facebook status a few years ago where they tried to use legal jargon to say facebook had no right to their personal content. They didn't bother to look up any of the legal terms involved and as a result looked really stupid when people started googling them and found out they had nothing to do with the internet or privacy. Also, anyone who thinks that facebook walls override a terms of service agreement that everyone accepted is a drooling puppet who should go worship Kelser as their god because he's unimaginably smarter than they are.
"Homer vote for Quebec! Corcoran will kidnap all the good players on other teams and drag them to Vasteras, so Quebec can walk all over everyone else. Calling it now." - Jordan Eng
"Imma go with Helstinki, too much firepower " - Sebastian Ball
"Calgary seems to have a real advantage with their star power. It helps them punish weak and mediocre teams and though it might not get them through the playoffs, it almost certainly grants them a Victory Cup." - Kyle Snow
WOO! Nice work everyone, the fact that we've overcome this big of a hurdle is a testament to our strength as a league. Mad props to all of the guys who put in countless hours of hardwork to save our amazing league. Excellent job everyone!
