you're just on a bye week, bud.

You're the 2nd tallest midget in the circus, as it were.

There are 2 brackets now. Championship and Consolation. The best 2 teams from each have a bye this week. So, Tony and Shaw have no game this week, and You and PZone (Carmen).

As I recall, the losers play each other too, so don't quit on it if you lose your first playoff round. And remember that the final game is divided into NFL weeks 16 & 17.

I have to beat Amanda this week in order to get a rematch with UT. Aaron Fucking Rogers better do a collar bone double check and get his candy ass back on the field.

I'm ready, I think. It's going to be a close one with Troop. Could go either way.

Biggest decision, as always, is looking into the old crystal ball and trying to figure out if Griffin is going to have one of his 10 point games or a 50 point game. Fucker is so inconsistent. But last week was a 50 pointer, and he usually follows those up with a 10 pointer, so I'm benching him.

Hello, all...I apologize for abandoning Eagle Green this entire season. Things have been extremely weird in my life lately, and my brain just refused to deal with anything football-related (amongst other things).

A bizarre kind of preservation mode? Probably.

Anyway, I tried to fix my team up a little, in the hopes that I'll have a decent showing for the final week at least. Show me what you got, Geno Smith!

Wow. Several of my players did very poorly yesterday.

You're looking good, Shawnee. I doubt Flacco will save me tonight. He's decent, but I need him to be spectacular. You've got this one in the bag.

Wait a second, was I playing Infi for a slot in the championship game?

Come on Flacco, have the game of your lifetime tonight!

If I lose, am I playing UT next week for the third place slot?

Damn. I'm beating the Goats right now, but only by 13 points. All my players are done for the week, and he's still got three to play tonight. Whew! This fight for 8th and 9th place in the league is gonna be a nailbiter!

I can't get my head around the fact that I still have a (long) shot at #1, and am guaranteed at least 4th. My team has been very mediocre this whole season, and I don't think I ever ranked higher than 6th in the league.

Your shot is so long you can't even see how long it is with any long shot devising devices! Good Luck! It would be hilarious if Flacco got enough points, but as I always say: It's football...most anything can happen.

I think it's gonna be Chick Bowl, though. Me and Amanda in the finals. You have to like that!
