Playoff time, not happy

So I shoot in a bar League with 23 teams, we finished 8th in the regular season and now start the playoffs. My bar has 2 tables and 4 teams, so 2 teams each week are home and 2 are away so 2 teams share table "A" and the other 2 share table "B".
There are 16 teams that make the playoffs so we should have home table because we finished top 8 and the other team that shares the table was a lower seed, but both teams that shoot on table "B" finished ahead of us so one of them is shooting on our table and we're force to go to a neutral bar or shoot as the home team at our opponents bar. Can't say I'm happy with that. I feel the 2nd team on table B should go elsewhere since our table isn't their home table. Any thoughts on this?
So this also means that if both those teams win at home the 1st round along with my team (shooting away), we'll be forced out of the bar a 2nd week too, unless we happen to match up with one of them.
 
Surely, your team can win on any table and any location. Heaven forbid you advance one day and have to play on a table in a state you don't often frequent. Tell those on your team who are whining about this to suck it up, drive on and play some pool.

I agree. The team should be proud to have made the playoffs. Now it's time to show what your team is made of and play pool. Like Jimmy Reid say's "No Time for Negative" My team has won the Division Championship playing as away for the entire playoffs before. We've also got knocked out early has a home team favorite. It doesn't matter where you play, you just have to match up well and play.

I hear you, we're planning on kicking some ass either way. We're planning on shooting at their bar instead of a neutral site so the victory will be even sweeter. Plus it's a club so the beers and shots will be cheaper too!
 
Just my opinion, the two teams with the highest average should be home.
