Nationals Preview - Declaration of Derby

Finally.
What has to be the most anticipated roller derby event in modern history is finally happening this weekend. The wait is over. It's time. Lace up those skates and get awesome.
This tournament has everything you could want. Gotham, the defending national champs coming off their first loss in 19 games. Philly, the team that caused that loss and the hosts. Oly, the undefeated unknown. Denver and Rocky Mountain, the underdogs with a chance. What more could you possibly want?
Nationals (as seeded):
Windy City Bracket
1: Windy City Rollers (#3, 10-1)
2: Kansas City Roller Warriors (#8, 8-3)
3: Denver Roller Dolls (#5, 8-2)
Oly Bracket
1: Oly Rollers (#7, 8-0)
2: Gotham Girls Roller Derby (#1, 6-1)
3: Detroit Derby Girls (#9, 8-4)
Texas Bracket
1: Texas Rollergirls (#4, 9-1)
2: Mad Rollin' Dolls (#12, 7-3)
3: Boston Derby Dames (#10, 9-8)
Philly Bracket
1: Philly Roller Girls (#2, 9-1)
2: Rocky Mountain Rollergirls (#13, 5-4)
3: Houston Roller Derby (#18, 5-2)
Champion: Gotham. Maybe this should be Philly. Philly's numbers are being skewed by the loss to Charm City in which they sat most of their stars. Philly is playing in their hometown but these games count as neutral so no home track advantage, at least in the numbers. Maybe not. The close game with Philly in 2008 regionals may have been the precise thing to set Gotham's 18-game winning streak in motion. Could the loss in 2009 regionals do the exact same thing yet again? The Derbytron seems to think so. It's never easy to beat a team twice in the same year and especially when that team is Gotham.
Runner-up: Philly. The beasts from the East may not have separated themselves too much from the pack, you know, 1 point here, 8 points there, but Gotham and Philly seem to be on a collision course. Whether you're looking back at the ridiculous game that was the Eastern Regionals Championship. Whether you're looking back at the late controversy that sprang from that game. Or, maybe you're just looking for a rematch of the World Series.
3rd Place: Windy City. The Chicago crew should get a rematch of last year's championship game in the semis with Gotham.That game may be closer than last year but Gotham is still the superior team.
4th Place: Texas. Yes, the Derbytron is predicting the same teams that represented 2008's final four. Yes, the Derbytron is predicting the third straight third place game for Texas. Get over it.
Quarterfinal Dropouts: Denver, Oly, Boston, Rocky Mountain.
First Round Dropouts: Kansas City, Detroit, Madison, Houston.
