Teal and Purple Cover the Brown

There is a fun aside to tonight's 2 vs 3 series between El Diablos and Holy Balls that has nothing to do with these games. In both of the first two years of WSEM the Belgian Wiffles and Flying Squirrels met up in the first round of the playoffs. Squirrels took the first meeting in 2011, and Belgian got sweet revenge in 2012. It is that 2012 series [video] that provides the fun angle.

Last year's Squirrels playoff roster featured Ryan Bullard, now of Holy Balls, and Craig Skinner, now with El Diablos. Belgian's 2012 playoff roster housed four players in action tonight: Chandler Phillips and Kyle Tomlinson, who now play for El Diablos, as well as David Castle and Brandon Corbett, who now are Holy Balls. Six players from last year's 4 vs 5 "brownout" evenly divided up, two Belgians and one Squirrel, to play in this year's 2 vs 3 series.

Even with the new playoff format. Even with neither team in the playoffs. Even with one of the teams not currently in the league. Somehow the spirit of the Belgian/Squirrels first round brown-a-palooza seems destined to find a way to happen.
