As we head into the last week of the regular season, the playoff scenarios have shaken out pretty cleanly. But before I get to that, a few recap-ish notes...
- The words "Close and Ugly" could be applied to a lot of things on Monday night. The Dolphins victory over the Jets. My victory over my brother. My testicles. .. I'll take 'em all!
- Mike Cole runs away with last place in convincing fashion. His "Auction Bitch" T-shirt is on order.
- The Falafel Shit-Stain Train to the Chicken Bone Cup took a slight detour in Robbytown. No doubt, he'll get back on track this week. With his awesome team, he can't lose!
- Robby's victory and Maine's loss mean that either one of them can end up in the Jean Shorts consolation bracket. I think Maine would happily finish in 9th place, if only not to have to look at his stupid team ever again.
- Thanks to Hopkins and his Kicker-Defense Combo, Thong gets a much needed victory to keep his verrry slim playoff hopes alive. But it's faaaaar more likely that he regains the 7-7 championship belt from Mike Frank.
- Meanwhile, Steve can thank Antonio "Garbage Time" Brown for his win this week. Is his team now back in it, or is this just a hope cock tease?
- Bradley goes out with a whimper.
So here are the (not fact checked, and most likely incorrect) Playoff Scenarios. These assume no unlikely shenanigans with point totals.
#1 Seed:
Sean with a win OR a loss and a Commish loss.
Commish with a win and a Sean loss.
#2 Seed:
Sean with a loss and a Commish win.
Commish with a win and a Sean win OR a loss and a MFrank loss.
MFrank with a win and a Commish loss.
#3 Seed:
Commish with a loss and a MFrank win.
MFrank otherwise.
#4 Seed:
This is remarkably cut and dried. The playoffs essentially start this week! Falafel vs. Steve-O. Both are 7-6. Winner goes 8-6 and gets into the playoffs as the 4-seed. Loser goes home as a big fat losing loser.
*Note: Thong is technically still alive too. If he wins and out-totals the winner of Falafel/Steve, he can still sneak into the 4-seed ahead of that person. Stranger things have happened.
Good luck to everyone not named Travis!
