The week that will determine it all....
The final week of the regular season playoffs...
Who doesn't love a nice jumbled mess in the standings of any league? Personally, I love thinking of all the crazy scenarios of how a team might be able to make the playoffs. This fantasy league is no different.
It is going to take 7 wins to make it to the playoffs - and 9 teams have a chance to make it there.
The teams that are locked in the playoffs.....
BringBack Harbs
Sagging TD's
Mizuno Blues
These three teams are fighting for the top spot in the league - they are guaranteed to make the playoffs. However, nothing is safe for the following teams....
Waco Kids
Dakster's Lavatory
Prible is my B*tch
John Robles
Hoosier Daddy
I love it! There are five teams fighting for three spots! Let's just skip all this fake bulls*t that half you guys don't read at the beginning of the blog and get to what you really came here for....
Juan Fatt Bidge v Sagging TD's
This matchup is way more about pride than it is anything else. Yes, Sagging TD's could win their entry fee back if they win - but BringBack Harbs would have to lose or Sagging TD's would have to outscore BringBack Harbs by 60 points. Neither is extremely likely.
This matchup is really all about one team who was ranked at the extreme low-end of the DDA (see earliest blog posts) and now sitting on top of the standings and the other team who manager happens to be a very confident, some would say arrogant, person and predicted his team to be the best in the league.
Juan Fatt Bidge is here to prove to all the haters that his team belongs in the playoffs and he will do that by demolishing Sagging TD's. In fact, I will personally take any side bets that Juan Fatt Bidge wins this matchup - all bets must be finalized before the opening kickoff on Thursday Nights Game, let's do this chumps!!
Prediction: Juan Fatt Bidge wins
Team Price is a Dick v Mizuno Blue
Mizuno Blue wins and Sagging TD's and BringBack Harbs loses - "The Swindler" earns the top seed
Mizuno Blue wins and both Sagging and BringBack win - Mizuno must outscore Sagging by 50 points and BringBack by 100
Either way, Mizuno Blue is in the playoffs
Team Price is a Dick wins and Mizuno Blue, Sagging TD's, BringBack Harbs all lose - Team Price is a Dick must outscore BringBack Harbs by 40 and not be outscored by the other two teams and they win first place
Team Price is a Dick loses and The J-Bones wins - The J-Bones wins the 2nd seed by placing first in their division
TPIAD loses and The J-Bones and Waco Kids win - TPIAD must then outscore John Robles (should John Robles lose as well) in order to stay in the playoffs
TPIAD loses and The J-Bones, Waco Kids, Hoosier Daddy win - TPIAD is out of the playoffs
Sadly, there are still plenty of other scenarios - but damnit, I am only a human and my brain hurts!!
Prediction: TPIAD wins
Dakster's Lavatory v BringBack Harbs
Thanks to last week's outburst of points BringBack Harbs in the drivers seat for the top spot in the league.
BBH wins and doesn't get outscored by 40 points by TPIAD and they are the top spot.
BBH loses - still in the playoffs
However, Dakster finds himself in a very peculiar spot...
Dakster must win to make the playoffs, lose and he is out. If he does win....
The J-Bones, TPIAD, and John Robles must all lose and Dakster needs to outscore each of them by 120 points or so (not each, but the top team). Also, Dakster will need to outscore Hoosier Daddy by more than 200 points. All of this is extremely unlikely - but there is one other way....
If Dakster wins and TPIAD and The J-Bones lose, he just needs to outscore Waco Kids and the other two teams by 120 points and he will earn the 2nd seed by winning his division.
Highly unlikely - but there is a chance!!!
Prediction: BringBack Harbs wins and ruins all the fun!
Aaron Rodgers is GAY v Sergio Dippsh*t
Hey look, this matchup doesn't shit!
Prediction: Sergio Dippsh*t wins
Waco Kids v Certified "G"
Certified "G" is fighting for pride - especially after almost scoring 150 points last week. Not bad for team that had trouble scoring in the 90's earlier in the season. If Certified "G" does pull-off the upset it will end the season for Waco Kids.
On the flip side, Waco Kids needs to win to make the playoffs - if they do and....
The J-Bones and TPIAD lose - if Waco Kids doesn't get outscored by 40 points by either team, they will get the 2nd seed.
Hoosier Daddy loses, along with one of the previously mentioned teams as well as John Robles lose - Waco Kids must outscore Hoosier Daddy by 70 points, or get outscored by the other three teams and they are in.
My head hurts - let's just end this madness right here....
Prediction: Certified "G" wins and Waco Kids ends the season with 4 straight loses and falls out of the playoff - just as I had predicted!
Prible is my B*tch v John Robles
PIMB is out of it - sorry, the loss of Elliott proved to be too much in the end! However, it is ironic that the final matchup for PIMB happens to be against a team that has committed "libel" against him the entire season. PIMB - this is your chance for revenge!
John Robles win and you are in, even more so - win and have Mizuno, Sagging, and BBH lose and you are contending for the top spot. You will need to outscore BBH by 70 points - but hey there is still a chance!
John Robles can still lose and make the playoffs. If he loses....
Waco, Dakster, Hoosier all lose - he is in
Waco wins - Robles must outscore Waco by 70 points
Dakster wins - Robles must not be outscored by 100 points
Hoosier wins - Robles must outscore Hoosier by 140 points
Here is hoping Dakster loses!!
Prediction: John Robles wins - but does not get the top seed!
Matchup of the Week
The J-Bones v Hoosier Daddy
Seriously, this one has so many possible outcomes - I am positive that I will miss one. Here we go...
The J-Bones win - they make the playoffs
JB wins and Mizuno, BBH, Sagging all lose - JB must outscore BBH by 110 points and he wins the top spot
JB wins and TPIAD loses - JB wins the 2nd seed
JB wins and TPIAD wins - JB must outscore TPIAD by 65 points to get the 2nd seed
JB loses and Waco wins - JB must outscore Waco by 110 points (or John Robles loses and JB outscores him by 45 points) or he is out
There are a few more scenarios with JB losing and other teams winning and outscoring each other and the nonsense. Let's just move on to the flip side...
Hoosier loses - they are out of the playoffs (which would be extremely crazy)
Hoosier wins - they have a chance to make it....
I am just going to say this if Hoosier wins, they have enough points to essentially beat any other team in tie breaker. The following teams would need to lose...
The J-Bones, TPIAD, John Robles - however, The J-Bones and TPIAD is in a different division and therefore one of them could still make it.
Prediction: The J-Bones win, not super confident - but it would be crazy, so why not!
I hope your head hurts as much as mine does!
