I'm baaaack. Just in case anyone really cares about their playoff chances, I'm here to (unofficially) tell you where you stand. Let's get to it.
The Gamers - have clinched the playoffs, but can still lose the division and a 1st round BYE to Amy's Excellent Team if The Gamers lose out and the A Team wins out. (A tie would undoubtedly go to The Gamers given their lead in points.) The number 1 seed is their's also as long as the Gliders don't pass them since The Gamers won the head to head matchup.
Sugar Gliders - have clinched the playoffs, but stil need 1 more win, or a Whatever loss to clinch the 3 Cooks and a Johnson (3CJ) division and a first round playoff BYE. If Whatever catches them, it will come down to points, and Whatever holds the edge there. The Gliders can also still claim the top seed, but only by passing The Gamers.
Dreaming Chickens - needs a win this week vs. 'Dis or a win next week combined with a 'Dis loss to clinch the 4CP division and the 3rd seed. For the Chickens to make the playoffs without winning the division, they need a win and a 49er loss, or 2 losses by the 49ers, and losses by both Team World and the Hunters.
Amy's Excellent Team - has clinched the playoffs. Can win the 1 Saint, 2 Cooks, and a Biker (SCB) division by winning out and the Gamers losing out. Can't fall any lower than the 5th seed. Can get as high as 1st seed if they win out and BOTH the Gamers and the Gliders lose out.
Whatever - Can only miss the playoffs by losing out and ending in a 3 way tie with the Chickens and 49ers. Since no one has a head to head advantage amongst the 3, the tie breaker would go to total points. While Whatever currently leads in points, only 20 points separates the 3 teams. 1 win will clinch the playoffs, and winning out while the Gliders lose out will give Whatever the division crown as long as they maintain their lead over the Gliders in total points. If that happens, and the Gamers and A Team also lose out, Whatever would take the #1 seed.
Got Time for 'Dis? - needs to win out, or needs the Chickens to lose out to clinch the division. 1 more win, or losses by the 49ers, Hunters, and Team World will however clinch a playoff spot.
Fake 49ers - need 1 win and 2 losses by the Chickens OR 2 wins and 1 loss by the Chickens plus 1 win by Whatever plus 2 wins by 'Dis OR 2 wins and 2 losses by 'Dis OR 2 wins and 1 loss by the Chickens plus 2 losses by Whatever plus 2 wins by 'Dis and a top 2 finish in a tiebreaker in points between them, Whatever, and the Chickens. Simple, right?
Hunters - Still in the "hunt" if they win out, and the 49ers and Chickens lose out and they pass the Chickens in points or if the 49ers and 'Dis lose out, and Team World loses 1 game and they can pass 'Dis in total points or if Team World also wins out, and they can pass both 'Dis an Team World in points. They are ahead of Team World by 5, but would need to make up 46 points on 'Dis or 141 points on the Chickens.
tmititw - Amazingly, can still make the playoffs. Needs to win out, and have both the 49ers and 'Dis lose out and the Hunters to lose 1 game. With the 49ers losing out, could end up in a 3 way tie at 6 with 'Dis and Hunters. Would need to have more points than both to advance. They trail the highest team by over 50.
The Benders - despite a decent point total that is close or better to some teams poised to make the playoffs, this team's inability to win when it counts means no playoffs this year.
MotherBoy - no excuses Commish - this team was just bad. Their only role is spoiler as no chance for playoff glory for this year 1 championship game participant.
CowPokes - if waiver wire transactions counted as points, this team might have a few more wins. But they don't. In a "never say die" frame of mind, this first team to be eliminated is nevertheless still busy scouring the waiver wire for "talent." Good practice for next year.
Below are the current playoff standings as WatchBlog sees it. The Commish will have to tell us if the 3rd division winner gets the 3rd seed even if they trail wild card teams in the standings. Also, Yahoo! doesn't ignore the division records like the Commish does, so these standings have been altered to show where teams stand under the Commish's rankings. Again, these are unofficial, and just WatchBlog's best guess. The Commish will likely just make it up as he sees fit.
