I wouldn't even be mad if I lost in the playoffs to a Josh Gordon 200 yard, 3 TD game. I'd be happy for him.

If I'm reading things correct, it looks like I'll be representing the Tony Romo division in the playoffs this year.

All hail the Dolphins D/ST!

I think this should be the easiest year for calculating the playoffs ever. Just the slotting of seeds is the only thing needed.

So thanks to Burrito for reminding me it's playoff time. I've paid literally zero attention this year, another implication I need to assign a replacement. I don't want to see the league die but I'm clearly not the person to run it anymore.

I'll try to get it done after work...

Our commissioner did not start a quarterback, had a kicker on bye, and a player ruled out. So, I'll also take that win, thanks.

You commissioner has had to play most of the season with both his QBs IRd and no even lovely QB available to pick up.

20 team league owns.

Juiced didn't make the playoffs? Below .500 record? I'M SHOCKED. For someone who talks so much, you continually suck each and every year. Good luck in the losers bracket yet again.

Man, this is the nerve wracking part. You have what you hope is a good team, and hope that no one gets injured or has a belly flop of a game. I'm likely going in with a new WR and TE this week.

The best I've ever done in this league is 3rd place, and that's because Aaron Rodgers had one of his worst days ever. :argh:. Here's hoping Alex Smith stays in his own personal Chief Mode and keeps slinging TDs.

Good luck to you all, but mostly to me. :D

It's very unfortunate that you have to play me this week. Because nothing stops the Goff train. NOTHING.

Copied from the league manager post:

quote:

Ignore what ESPN says the seeding is because there's no way to put in conferences into ESPN...

AFC:
1) Clear #1 Seed Taco Tuesday
2) Baller Status wins Namath Division (beat Cows 2x)
3) Wisconsin Cows. (rule #2: 7-4 Conf record)
4) Jameis's Crab Legs Emporium (rule #2: 6-5 conf record)

NFC:
1) Clear #1 Seed Boudin Ballers
2) Clear #2 Seed Naptown Sleepers
3) Seattle Fraisers (rule #5: SoS; CORRECTION: rule #2, Division Record)
4) Discount Double Champ (rule #5: SoS; CORRECTION: rule #2, Division Record)

NOTE:
I skip rule #4 for wild cards (Margin of victories) as unlike with real football, you have no control over how many points your opponent scores.

UPDATE NOTE:
I forgot that if WC teams are in the same division you apply the division tiebreaker instead. Fortunately, it changes nothing as Seattle Fraisers have a better Division record too.

I will do it as long as everyone is willing to give me training wheels and not expect everything to be perfect year one. This looks quite complicated, so I am expecting a fuckup here or there.


At the same time, I will defer to the Burritos if they want it, as they are the first family of 20 team fantasy at this point.

Nah. I love playing, but if someone else wants to take it, more power to them. Commish can be a thankless job, and as much kidding as we give Jetsguy, he's been a good and fair one.

If you do take it, good luck in calculating the playoffs. :)
