Dale, I’ve had lineup problems all season. I blame the system.
Big Johnsons Thu Dec 4 2:31pm CT
Thanks Dale!
Trojan Roosters Thu Dec 4 11:58am CT

Problem should be fixed now. Let me know if anyone has any lineup problems.

Big Johnsons Thu Dec 4 11:33am CT

Dale, something wonky going on with the lineups. I am going to send mine to you in case I can't get this figured out...

Pink Floyds Tue Dec 2 12:19pm CT
....and so it begins.

I’d give the Plow Boys about 6%. Maybe 6 and a half.

One week to go, but the playoff picture became pretty clear after this week's results, with only one spot still left to be determined.

The Pink Floyds and Big Johnsons have clinched their divisions and a first-round bye. The Floyds basically clinched the No. 1 seed throughout the playoffs with their win over the Johnsons this past week.

Seven wins is good enough to make the playoffs this year, so the Roosters and Clissos both clinched spots, despite losing last week, and the Buffaloes are back in the playoffs after winning their seventh. So that's one left with the Maq Daddies in control with a one game lead over three teams. QMaster was eliminated.

The Daddies can clinch the final spot with a win over the Roosters this upcoming week, but if the Daddies lose,  there is a chance of a three-way tie at 6-7, but the Daddies would still be in the best position, because they own the head-to-head tiebreaker over both the Hand Grenades an Plow Kings, so no matter who wins that matchup, they can't win a two-way tie with the Daddies. The Boozers, though, split two games with the Daddies, and if they end up in a two-way tie it will come down to total points, and the Boozers currently have an 18-point lead there. 

But here's where it gets really complicated. The Plow Kings own a 2-0 head-to-head over the Boozers (the Hand Grenades are 1-1 with the Boozers), so in a three-way tie the Kings actually have the best three-way tiebreaker record and would claim the final playoff spot. So the Plow Kings need to win, they need the Daddies to lose, and they need the Boozers to win for force a three-way tie. The Boozers need to win, the Daddies lose, and Grenades win because then they win the three-way. Sorry Grenades,  it looks like you are out either way, because you lose the tiebreaker in both the two-way an three-way ties.

So, there you go. The easiest solution is either a Daddies win, or a Boozers loss, and the Daddies clinch. Oddsmakers are listing the Daddies odds of getting the final spots 61 percent, the Boozers at 27 percent, and the Plow Kings at 12 percent.

Is it, though, John? Seems like hardly any at all.
