Playoffs Round 1 in Review

WatchBlog here. We are down to 4. Both higher seeds won, but at the cost of 2 CFFFL heavyweights. Round 2 has already begun. Let's get to it.

Round 1

Coconutycrazy has had an unconventional season. The brand new team focused on drafting a balanced team, and all necessary bench players in order to go a whole season avoiding the waiver wire. The strategy played out perfectly as Cosette "what is a waiver wire?" Cook is now just 1 win away from the CFFFL Championship game after defeating the formidable NFL-NIP(NotInPrison) 98-75. Cindy "I'm sure I was clear that children could play only if they didn't beat me" Cook's team did not show up in this Wild Card playoff round, specifically her New Orleans Saints QB/RB 1-2 punch who couldn't even break 7 points between the 2 of them. The Crazies will advance to take on the only team in the playoffs with a Championship pedigree - No Punt Intended and Amanda "Maybe the Amanda Family FFL is a more accurate name for this league" Cook. Should be an exciting semi-final match up.

In the other Wild Card round, the 2 top scorers faced off in an early round slug-fest. In a heart-breaking loss, Draft King went down to his little brother's team for the 3rd time this season, when Jerry "The GM" Cook didn't fire Jerry "The Coach" Cook before he could bench Tom Brady for Ben Roethlisberger which cost his team 29.54 points in a game he lost by 29.22 points. Ouch. That's a real kick in the King's jewels. As for the Russian Hackers and David "Wait, can't I just play the Draft King every week?" Cook, they will move forward to a Round 2 match up with Josh "Julio Jones may have put up a zero, but it's better than Dez's -1" Cook's Juggernauts in a battle which will feature 2 teams dealing with late season injuries. Which ever team manages around those injuries the best will advance to the CFFFL Championship.

The Finals are next week, and then WatchBlog will un-imbed for another off-season. Not sure which event is more anticipated. WatchBlog out.
