;	Its not the first time we`ve done this - we only have most fields for 3 hours and playing 2 quarterfinals a night (you can only sched 2 games in case of OT) would require 6 field nights for quarterfinals vs 4 and at this point we don`t have the margin to accomodate this. Another solution would be to limit playoffs to the top 6 teams (vs 8), but I think most would agree that would be worse than "no overtime in the quarterfinals".

;	Then your team should have done better in the regular season. I think everyone would like to play overtime but this seems like the best solution given our limited amount of time. Now would I be saying this if we were the lower seed.....maybe not.... haha

agree with Tom
