Week 16

Well, that just about confirms it.  ACL is cursed.  Is it the name?  It's the name...isn't it?  Always a bridesmaid.  Sigh...

Week 15

Well, the TDs have certainly had better weeks.  Only one of their players scored in the double digits, and even then Thielen was barely able to pull it off.  By the end of Sunday night, Amari Cooper had more points than the entire TDs team.  A rough end for the team even though they spent the first half of the season on fire.  Maybe when Bell finds his new team next year, things will turn around.

Week 14

Ddy's, you're beautiful!  What a way to wrap up the season with three upsets in a row!  Even though it wasn't enough to get you into the playoffs, it was a damn impressive example of never giving up.  Also you knocked Doctor B out of the round 1 bye, so that's cool too.

Week 13

Sorry again for getting this out late.  I just couldn't find the words for such a depressing week.  Not only have four teams been eliminated from playoff contention in a single week, but even more tragic is ACL's fall from the top spot in Colorexico.  Strangely enough, the team is still ranked 1st, but because of our wacky divisional tiebreaking rules, Doctor B currently rests atop the division.  If they can maintain their current postition, they'll end up with the bye.  The eliminated teams are the Zombies, Runner Runner, BgDkDdy, and, despite their improved season, Land O'Nutts.  The other six teams will make playoffs, now it's just about positioning.

Week 12

I don't have as much time this week, so this one will be short and sweet.  With the Ddy's win, no teams have yet been eliminated!  Two weeks from the playoffs and, at least mathematically, every single team still could potentially make it to the show.  While the top 5 teams are more or less established with 7 wins or more, that last wildcard spot is still up for grabs.

Week 11

There aren't many worse feelings in fantasy than being the 2nd highest scoring team, and still losing.  I got season 1 championship flashbacks from that one.  A couple more teams joined the Ddys in being eliminated from bye contention, though nobody is yet outright eliminated from playoffs so that's pretty cool.  That being said, as we head toward the final three weeks of the regular season it's the time where teams will start dropping off.

Week 10

While not yet eliminated from playoff contention, the BgDkDdys are now the first team unable to earn a playoff bye week this season.  On the other side of things, The TDs winning streak finally came to an end at the hands of ACL, tying the two teams at 7-2 each.  Meanwhile the E-Munnies have been continuing their climb up from the dredges, with a 5th consecutive win, bringing them only a game away from division lead.

Week 9

I guess it didn't matter whether I talked shit or sung their praises, Land O'Nutts just does what they want.  Pulling off the "upset", they've worked their way to a tenuous playoff spot, and put an end to ACL's 6 game winning streak.  Losses from the Ddys and bEARs have resulted in a 3-way tie for last place along with the unfortunate Zombies.  Those teams are starting to fall out of it, so will need to make some major changes if they still want a chance at playoffs this season.

Week 8

ACL and the TDs continue to pull away, and while they haven't guaranteed themselves the bye quite yet, it's looking more and more likely they will be the two to sit out week 14.  But the big news is that congratulations are in order!  The Zombies pulled off their second win of the season!  Which actually puts them only a game behind the wildcard running.  Never say never, fellas.

Week 7

ACL and TDs continue to break away from the rest of their respective divisions, but everyone else is still very much in the hunt, (yep, even you, Zombies).  The 3-way tie in Colorexico should make for some riveting rivalries as we head into the second half of the season.  Meanwhile in Newizona only a single game separates the bottom 4 teams.

Week 6

Another week, another former champion defeated by Land O'Nutts.  I think I need to stop talking about them as though they are underdogs, they just keep winning!  The Futures are also starting to look as good as they were three years ago, meanwhile the E-Munnies continue to be the second highest point scorer while sitting at the bottom of their division.  They'll hope their recent win indicates a change as we approach the midpoint of the season.

Week 5

I don't want to spend every week talking down on our reigning champ, just most weeks!  Here's a fun fact: the E-Munnies have the 2nd highest points scored, yet remain dead last in their division (and 2nd to last overall).  That's some rough luck!  The two division continue to mirror each other, with a 3-1, 1-3, and three 2-2 teams in each.

Week 4

So much for figuring out an early playoff picture!  After week 3 not a single team remains undefeated, nor winless, meaning it's really anyone's game.  Also, I should really start using my powers for good.  Seems I've developed the ability to shit talk a team into winning crazy upsets.  I wonder who I should trash on this week?  *checks upcoming schedule*  That Doctor B team can't even get their logo updated, how can they possibly expect to set a lineup?

Week 3

I was really looking forward to using the Fitzpatrick interview for this week's blog photo, but then ARob had to go and steal the spotlight from the Zombies.  Still though, two teams putting up over 150pts means it was a pretty crazy week, which has left us with only two remaining undefeated teams going into week 3.

Week 2

Yay for football!  Hey what if I told you your offensive players could have an average score of 20 and you'll still lose?  That's a fun way to start the season, yah?  Throw in some injury scares, some surprise performances out of new owners, and the TDs starting an inactive...well we got ourselves a stew goin!

2018 Draft Review

We were so close.  Just four more picks, and we would've made it.  Sadly, my pride in you all was dashed by Runner Runner, who was the only team to time out on their pick, in the 6th round.  Their record as a drafter will now forever be tarnished.  We bow our heads.

2018 Rookie Draft Preview

We're here again!  Now that the boring part of the offseason has passed, we can get to the fun stuff.  We've got a couple owners who will be experiencing our draft for the first time, so I'm gonna go over the process below.  Those of you who may have forgotten, despite having done this twice before, read on!

E-Munnies Win!

Well, the first part of my prediction came true.  The Munnies were extremely dominant going into the Monday night game.  But then...they just stayed dominant.  Congratulations to the team for preventing the league's first repeat champion, and taking home the title!
