"...And they are off and running, they make the turn at the first quarter mile with Sagging TD's leading the way - The J-Bones closing in, about a length behind. At the half mile, TPIAD is making a surge and here comes BringBack Harbs from the inside lane. Mizuno Blue and Hoosier Daddy are trailing, but only by half a length - this is going to be a tight race! My oh my, this is looking interesting - Juan Fatt Bidge is limping, something is wrong. Somebody is going to have to shoot that Fatt Bidge - shoot her right in the face!"
It would have to be the Belmont stakes - the longest race of the triple crown. Fantasy Football is clearly not a sprint, but much more of a long haul and then turn on the jets at the end. Nothing is better than just barely making it to the playoffs and then dominating in the first round.
Which brings me to what you came here for....
Hoosier Daddy 102.9
Mizuno Blue 88.2
Just barely making it into the playoffs - but very clearly one of the teams to beat, Hoosier Daddy advances into the second round. Interestingly enough, Kamara (Steal of the Draft) was knocked out of the game early on and was never able to return. Have no fear, Hopkins is here! Seriously though, Hoosier Daddy has so many different players that can score points - this has to be the team to beat in the playoffs.
On the flip side, the magic has died. Once the trade deadline passed what was Mizuno supposed to do? It was as if, he was lost - looking for a way to change his lineup but just couldn't piece together the winning combination without the ability to take other team's scraps and turn them into gold. It was a good run, and we are all proud of you buddy! You may have single handedly change the way fantasy football is played - probably not - but hey, at least we know someone who is willing to make trades for next year!
Result: Hoosier Daddy wins
Prediction: Hoosier Daddy wins
Waco Kids 135.3
Sagging TDs 98
Can I just say, it feels good to have our head football coach in the playoffs! It feels right! Not only that, he decided he would go ahead and dominate in the first round and hang around another week.
Gurley did what he does best, score fantasy points. Landry had himself a game - thanks Jay Cut-eh-ler! It is just too bad, Kelce fell at the one yard line - otherwise, he would be in the 20s as well. Not that it mattered though....
Antonio Brown is not a human being. He is so good, it is ridiculous. However, he was the only player to actually show up this week for Sagging TDs. Sagging TDs was always a "boom or bust" team, this week happen to be a bust week and he have to just watch his team score 140 in the consolation bracket. I will say, bold move on Stephen Anderson - I mean, everybody had their eye on this guy!
Result: Waco Kids wins
Prediction: Waco Kids win
On a side note, the top score this week came from two teams not in the playoffs. JFB (no surprise there) scored 141.6 and Dak's Lavatory scored 159.2. I am just hoping that JFB can be the top score by the end of the season - in fact we all know it is going to happen!
