Howdy folks,
It’s busier around here than Falafel’s mom during fleet
week, so not much time for recapping these days. But with the playoffs imminent, let’s check
things out around here and see what’s what…
Mathematically In
Falafel and Mazzle have both clinched playoff berths but are
trending in opposite directions. Falafel
– once thought by everyone but me to be unstoppable – has lost 3 in a row;
meanwhile Mazzle has won 3 in a row. For
the record, Mazzle would also get 3 in a row before Falafel in a hypothetical
game of Tic-Tac-Toe. Every time. With no ties.
Practically In
Maine lost this past week after Thong Woked up to the tune
of 162 points. However, Maine still glides
into the playoffs with too many total points to realistically get caught,
regardless of what happens in Week 14.
Also, he will be cutting Mecole Hardman this week because seriously.
The Ringo Spot
Thong has to win, Sausage has to lose, and Thong has to outscore
Sausage by 31.29 for Thong to make the playoffs. If one of those three things don’t happen
then Sausage is the 4th team in. And
given that Sausage plays MCole and Thong plays Falafel in Week 14, I think we
know where to place our bets…
The Also-Rans
Mike Frank is eliminated at 6-7 and will fulfill his destiny
by winning this week to finish 7-7.
Regression to the mean is a bitch, but having the cup was fun while it
lasted.
Meanwhile, your trusty Commish has somehow won 3 in a row,
but it’s too little too motherfucking late.
MCole is still technically in this league, but you wouldn’t really know
it. The Brothers Cole are both 5-8 and
should be ashamed of themselves. At
least they’re not going to be Auction Bitch.
Auction Bitches
Well, this is fitting.
Steve. Robby. Week 14 for all the marbles. A pair of 4-9 teams. Strobby Bowl XXVII, AKA “Auction Bitch Bowl.” The winner goes onto 9th place
glory, while the loser finishes last and well...you know…
Hope everyone had an excellent Thanksgiving and is lubing up
their chimneys for a Merry Christmas season.
Good luck to all in the last week of the regular season…
Cheers,
-
The Commish
