OT: HF Wild Fantasy Football League

[tyratoku]

So, remember last week when Gordon turned in 43 against me? 30 more than he's supposed to and more or less wrecked my week single handed?

Eric ****ing Decker has 51 points with 4 minutes left in the 4th, close to 40 more than he was supposed to get.

My opponent, the leagues punching bag, is now a 52% favorite.

If I lose this week I may just explode. Spend all season playing the waiver wire, making trades, building an elite team, and of course start landing opponents who have players that have career best days.

**** my life.

Ouch. But I suppose that's true.

 

[Avder]

Ouch. But I suppose that's true.

AND you're beating me in fantasy hockey this week! GET AWAY FROM ME!!!!

 

[tyratoku]

AND you're beating me in fantasy hockey this week! GET AWAY FROM ME!!!!

It's your initiation into being a Mod from the hfboards fantasy sports community

 

[Avder]

Andre Brown please rack up 40 or something I'd like to keep my sanity this week.

 

[Avder]

Unbelievable week.

Hey Generic....know that game we're playing next week that was supposed to be for the Division Title and #1 overall? Now it looks like we're playing for a god damn playoff spot.

Eric ****ing Decker. God ****ing dammit.

 

[Avder]

Once the standings go final tomorrow I'm gonna write up clinching scenarios for our division...and I guess for tread lightly too.

 

[elnewby]

To whoever I played this week; you're welcome for not playing Gordon.

 

[tyratoku]

Unbelievable week.

So with my sudden win over the almighty Avder, does that mean I'm back in the playoff hunt?

 

[Avder]

The Other Guys are eliminated from playoff contention

What was the point of divisions? Played half the games against the other division and only the top seed gets a playoff berth?

 

[Avder]

I have no idea.

Edit: Well, the schedule was unblanaced. Played each divisional opponent twice, but some opposite division opponents once.

 

[saywut]

Haven't met my projection for 7 straight weeks, graded as the worst draft in the league, yet somehow I'm in first place. Still don't like my chances winning the league though, team has slowed down as seen by failing to meet projection for 7 straight weeks.

 

[Avder]

Well you can thank Josh Gordon and Eric Decker for me not having won the last two weeks. Had I won my last two games like I was supposed to I'd have clinched first overall by now and the playoff picture would be a lot different, with elnewby on the outside looking in, hasbeens in 3rd and Balls Deep in 4th.

 

[Avder]

So, Generic. Today we play a game where the winner gets in, and the loser may just be out of the playoffs.



This is gonna be good.

 

[Avder]

Last two spots going down to the final day, and determined entirely by what happens in my game against Generic. This has got to be one of the tightest finishes ever seen in a fantasy football league. One spot goes to the winner of Balls Deep vs Threshecutioners, the other one is based on points diffferential between the loser of that game and elnewby's Fine Team.

CLINCHING SCENARIOS FOR MONDAY:

Tread Lightly is in as the #2 Seed

HasbeensnHoneyBadger is in as the #1 seed

elnewbie's Fine Team
Can clinch a playoff spot with:
-Finishes with more points than the loser of Balls Deep vs Threshecutioners

Balls Deep
Can clinch a playoff spot with:
-A win
-A loss & Brandon Marshall scores more than 25.68 points

Threshecutioners
Can clinch a playoff spot with:
-A win
-A loss & DeMarco Murray scores more than 13.18 points

Didn't expect my season to be hinging on the shoulders of Brandon Marshall. ****. So many decisions I wish I would've done differently throughout the season and draft. And that damn schedule.. /excuses

If we had both played our current optimal lineup, we'd both be in right now with about 150 points in our game.

 

[Avder]

So, if my final score today is higher than 148.36, I am in on points.

If Generic's final score is higher than 133.12, he is in on points.

And then the winner of our game is in on record and will be the 3 seed.

[Avder]

I wish the game would hurry up and get here.

 

[Avder]

This game is a shootout. Decent chance Generic and I both get in. I'm 0.4 points away from getting in, and Generic is 12.9 away.

 

[Generic User]

That catch by Jeffrey was amazing. Wish it was Marshall though. Edge of my seat here. Every time McCowen drops back to pass, "Marshall Marshall Marshall.."

To be honest I'm kind of hoping for that to happen too, haha. This is exciting.

If I miss the playoffs by 5 points or less, you guys might not hear from me for a while. Sorry to some of you, congratulations to others.

You can do it. If this game keeps going like its going to, you're gonna get those last 13 points, and we're both gonna get in.
