Fantasy Football

OK, for those of you who hate Football or hate Fantasy sports... move on!
Go to the next post...

The following is LONG! LONG LONG LONG! The unique thing is that this year's
Mud and Blood Fantasy Football league - all teams are close, except for mine of course! HAHA. There is one week left (one game left) in the regular season and the following is potential playoff scenarios!!!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings Owners -

The following took me about an hour to figure out.
Very interesting. Enjoy and Good Luck!

OK Mud and Blood fans ... it is coming
down to the wire. Let's look at the
standings. The only teams that are
eliminated from playoff contention are:
Kevin's Team (4-8)
d20s (4-8)
Shockingly Offensive (4-8)

Remember, tie breaks go like this:
1. Head-to-Head
2. Division Record (if applicable)
3. Points

What we do know is this:
The GridIron Masters on Crack locked
up the #1 seed last week and won the Summerall
Division. They will get a BYE next week.

The #2 Seed (Division winner for Madden) is notted
up now - Schrodinger's Cat and K's Other Men are
tied at 7-5. The rest of the Division is ONE game
behind at 6-6. More on this later.

The wild card will come from the Madden Division.
Carnivorous Snatch takes the other playoff slot
with her 7-5 record. If The Snatch wins their
last game they will lock up a first round BYE.
If they lose then their fate is with the other
teams in the Madden Division.

The Easy Part:

1. If The Cat wins (vs. d20s) they lock up a playoff slot.

2. If K's win (vs. Kevin's Team) they lock up a playoff slot.

3. If The Ferrets lose (vs. GMOC!) they are eliminated based
on Division record (3-5). That would leave them at
6-7 and no way to win any tie breakers.

4. If D'z Nuts loses they are eliminated based on point
total and division record.

Playoff Scenarios:

The Ferrets get a wild card if:
1. They beat GMOC!
2. Mudflaps and D'zNuts lose.

D'z Nuts gets a playoff slot if:
1. They beat Shockingly Offensive
2. Mudflaps lose

Mudflaps gets a playoff slot if:
1. They beat The Snatch
and will back into a playoff slot if:
1. They lose, D'z Nuts loses and Ferrets lose. They
will get in with a 6-7 record based on better Division
record than the Ferret and better point totals than
D'z.

Simply put, if The Ferrets, or D'z nuts lose they are
ELIMINATED from the playoffs.

Now the complex part, seeding:

GMOC is the #1 seed.

The #2 seed will be determined by who wins the Madden
Division.

1. K's Other Men will be the #2 seed if they win and Cats lose.
2. Cats will be the #2 seed if they win and K's lose.
3. If both K's and Cats win - the Division winner will be
The Cats...based on a split head-to-head and better
Division record 6-2 vs. 3-5. Cats will be the #2 seed
and the K's will be the #3 seed, regardless, since
they beat The Snatch in week 4.
4. If the Cats lose and K's lose the Cats will have the #2
seed regardless of how the other teams do... based on
their 6-2 best Division record.

Now, the #3 seed:

5. The Snatch gets the #3 seed if they win and the Cat
OR K's Other Men loses.
If The Snatch, K's, and Cats all win then the Snatch
gets the #4 seed and has to play the Wild Card, since
K's has tie breaker on The Snatch by head-to-head.

If the Snatch loses they will have the #3 seed only
if K's Other Men wins and Cats lose. They have tie
breaker over the Cats based on this week's victory.

Any other scenario other than the above one, The Snatch
will have the #4 seed. The Snatch does not have the
tie breaker on the Mudflaps or D'z based on head-to-head
games.

6. The Mudflaps can get the #3 seed with a win and the following:
K's lose
Snatch lose

If the K's lose and Snatch wins then they get the #4 seed,
regardless of if the Cat wins or loses.

7. D'z Nuts can only get the #3 seed if they win, K's lose,
Mudflaps lose and Snatch loses.

If they win and K's lose, Mudflaps lose and Snatch wins then
they will be the #4 seed.

8. By any scenario, K's Other Men cannot be the #4 seed.
They can only be the #2 or #3 or wildcard.

9. The Ferrets cannot be a #3 seed, but they can be a #4
seed IF they win, and K's Other Men, Mudflaps, and
D'z Nuts lose.

WILDCARD:

10. Ferrets get it if they win and D'z, Mudflaps lose
and K's win.

11. K's Other Men become the wild card if they lose and
Mudflaps, D'z lose and the Ferrets win.

12. Mudflaps will be the wildcard if they win and K's
win. Cats can win or lose, they have the tie breaker
over the Mudflaps. If Mudflaps, D'z, and Ferrets all
lose, the Mudflaps back into the wildcard.

13. D'z Nuts become the wild card if they win and
Mudflaps lose and K's Other Men win.

Let's play out a few scenarios:

If all teams in Madden lose this week:
#1: GMOC!
#2: Cats
#3: Snatch
#4: K's
Wildcard: Mudflaps

If all teams in Madden win this week:
#1: GMOC!
#2: Cats
#3: K's
#4: Snatch
Wildcard: Mudflaps

Most likely scenario (Vegas Odds):
#1: GMOC!
#2: Cat's
#3: K's
#4: Snatch
Wildcard: Mudflaps or D'z Nuts

Which makes the following Playoff schedule:

Round 1:
Mudflaps vs. Snatch = Winner 1

Round 2:
Winner 1 vs. GMOC!
K's vs. Cats

Superbowl!
