The League unanimously and immediately confirmed an appeal from Chape, Cody and Glen was unnecessary as the notes posted in the game summary regarding the third game of the day being a 'championship game' were both unofficial and false. The League went on to say this was a desperate and futile attempt for victory and further prosecution, including possible suspension(s), may be handed down accordingly.
The League confirmed that game 2 was an official trophy game, due to the proceedings, participation of all players, and conclusion of, the award ceremony. The League also reviewed the Jumbotron tape which includes audio of Clem, Gus, Cody and Glen discussing that the third game would be an 'exhibition' match and may not even include 7 innings. (They ended up playing 6 todal).
The League requests that the COTW webmaster immediately revise verbiage in the game summary, including the removal of the word 'provisional'.

Don't miss the signing statement on the appeal ruling - the 8/19/06 championship may stand, but future championships will be more in line with the old school, traditional, hard-earned reputation of the COTW. In the future there will be no free passes given to players who leave early to earn non-cashable brownie points. Players who want to win championships will need to be committed to putting in the time necessary to win them, without exception.

So let it be written.
