You stated that the Bosses would have been automatically deemed Champions if they won the game against the Sirens. This is not the case. Had the Bosses won or lost the last game, they were guaranteed a spot in the Championship game. Had the Sirens lost the game, they would have been tied with the Brawlers and the Betties at 1-2. It was decided the tie breaker would be a round robin tournament between these three teams to determine who plays the Bosses in the Championship game and thus have a shot at the title. As it turns out, the Sirens won and now have a tied record of 2-1 with the Bosses.
