Commissioner’s Letter – Week 6

From the Desk of Mr. Pop

Well folks, that’s a wrap on the regular season — and what a season it was.


The playoff picture is officially set. We’ve got clear favorites and clear underdogs — but as the great Lloyd Christmas once taught us, even a one-in-a-million shot still counts. So listen up, underdogs: I’m telling you there’s a chance.

 

Your #1 seed and Western Conference champion: the San Diego Garage Crew will face off against the #4 seed: the Pro Wrestling Tee Slammers.

 

Over in the East, the Motor City Sharpshooters take the #2 seed and will face off against the #3 seed Skyline Swishers.

 

Winner heads to the Championship. Loser heads home to stare at the scoreboard and wonder where it all went wrong.

Regular-Season Awards
Ballots are out and the votes are rolling in for our regular-season player awards. We’ll be announcing the winners next week — so if you think you’ve got a shot at some hardware, maybe keep that speech short. Nobody likes an acceptance monologue longer than a Pop-A-Shot game.

Title

Meanwhile in Seattle…
The Seattle Superbirds didn’t play this week. An unorthodox time for a contract holdout if you ask me — but I’m siding with the players either way.  I may wear a whistle now, but I still punch the same clock as everyone else.

Title

A Final Word

To everyone who played, uploaded, scored, and talked a little trash — thank you. This inaugural league has been a blast. I haven’t had this much fun since Chauncey Billups invited me to play poker with him. 

 

Keep an eye on your inbox for a short survey — your feedback will help shape what comes next. (And yes, there will be a next.)

 

Now rest those shooting arms. The playoffs are here.

 

Mr. Pop
Commissioner, National Pop-A-Shot League

Rules

Teams must have 4 consistent players on their roster throughout the season.

Game Mode: Start with :40 of play—shots are worth 2 points, except the final :10 when worth 3. Scoring 40+ earns :15 Bonus Time, with 2-point shots in the first :05 and 3-point shots in the final :10.

Each player can play up to 8 games per week on their Elite machine using six balls.

Top 4 scores per player count toward the team’s weekly total.

Players must toggle “League Play” on their profile at app.popashot.net before playing to ensure scores are tracked.

One video of a full league game, per player, must be emailed weekly for score verification—due by Thursday at 11:59 PM PST.
