Re: Galileo Division 2008

I think the key is not counting out team 8. If they cant strategize and beat them successfully (1114) i.e. slow them down, trap the ball, etc. then who can? Slowing down 1114 will be significant if it can be done since the other alliance can score at will also.

To the other comment about the scenario that could break up the alliance, how ironic is it that Aces High are in the mix again similar to that of Newton 2006!

If 330 wins out, the alliance will be set with 1114 and 330. 330 picking 1114 as a #1 pick is a guarantee and 1114 accepting should be a guarantee. Accepting means its a guaranteed strong alliance versus them declining and taking whoever 330 doesn't take.

With all of the hype this year about 1114, I had to see them for myself in a match. They are the team 25 of 2006 and I am a believer now!


My last scenario would be the most interesting. What if 1114 ends up at #1 and takes 254? That would be such a strong alliance that if they should win the championship title, they would both be the two most strongest teams to have finally won a title!
