Click on the spoiler to see a sneak peek of a bronze statue that will be unveiled at the foot of these stairs outside of Hampden Park's main entrance (above). Hampden, normally a soccer venue IOTL, has become the full time home to the Claymores in recent years after splitting time with Murrayfield, a rugby venue in Edinburgh.

Jackass Number Two
Released by United Artists. Produced by MTV Films and Dickhouse Productions.
This installment will likely be Bam Margera's last Jackass appearance for a while due to his excessive drinking causing a rift within the group.
Happily N'Ever After
Released by Lionsgate. Produced by Vanguard Animation.
Epic Movie
Released by Miramax Films. Produced by Seltzerberg Productions.
This is one of Miramax 2.0's first releases since former President Harvey Weinstein resigned from the White House and was welcomed back by Miramax owner Phil Anschutz.

@WB18
As a side note, with Kino Veterans Stadium in Tucson being an outdoor venue, the Arizona Wranglers have received special permission from the WLAF play their home games exclusively at night to avoid the hottest parts of the daytime, especially in May and June. That pretty much guarantees the Wranglers an opportunity to build a nationwide fanbase in the US with home games played in prime time.

Because of course it is. Harvey Weinstein coming back to Miramax, with Phil Anschutz owning the company, Dan Schneider running the TV branch, and Seltzer/Friedberg having a partnership with them.

Something tells me that Ray Spum is going to be the head of Miramax Animation if he hears about this, I just know he will.
To @OldNavy1988, look forward to Miramax 2.0 to co-release films with Turner during 2007 and 2008 and heading a new deal with Joss Whedon, who has been fired from Buffy nearly a decade ago for an overall film and television production deal. Films heading for February 2007 include New Line's Hannibal Rising, Peacock Releasing/DreamWorks' Norbit, Paramount's Music and Lyrics, 20th Century-Fox's Ghost Rider, New Line's The Number 23 and Luxor Pictures' Reno 911!: Miami.

WLAF scheduling format as of 2007
@WB18 @stratonapba @TheMatthew25
WLAF's scheduling format as of 2007.
The 30 teams of the WLAF are divided as follows:
Each team plays the following over the course of the regular season...
Eight games within the division (4 home, 4 away)
Four games against the opposite divison in the same conference except for one based on standings (Using the chart above as an example, the Wranglers would face all Coastal division opponents except the Orcas)
- 1st place: 1/2/3/4
- 2nd place: 1/2/3/5
- 3rd place: 1/2/4/5
- 4th place: 1/3/4/5
- 5th place: 2/3/4/5
Four interconference games against each team who finished in the same place in their respective division (Using the chart above as an example, the Admirals would face the Avengers, Wranglers, Maulers and Ravens)
Playoffs
The WLAF's playoff format is skewed to guarantee a World Bowl between a European and North American team.
The European Conference's playoff seeding consists of Metro and Capitol division winners plus five wild cards.
For the Pacific and Atlantic Conferences, seeding consists of division winners for the Central, Seaboard, Coastal and Frontier divisions, plus three wild cards spread out across those four divisions based on regular season records.
Only the #1 seed in the European Conference gets a first round bye. The Pacific and Atlantic conferences are grouped together as a defacto "North American" conference and only the team with the highest win total from that bunch gets the #1 seed.
Wild Card or Quarterfinal Round
#7 at #2 seed
#5 at #4 seed
#6 at #6 seed
Semifinal or Divisional Round
Second Lowest Remaining Seed at Second Highest Remaining Seed
Lowest Remaining Seed at #1 Seed
Conference Championships
Lowest Remaining Conference Seed at Highest Remaining Conference Seed

NOTE: The regular season and playoff formats can be modified if necessary.

Nice work! But Luxor Pictures' 300 is on the way and the film success led Luxor to greenlit Sin City 2. 20th Century-Fox would release Ghost Rider, a new Marvel film this month.
Yup that is correct.
