I clicked on the tie-breaker link. Is this not a wild-card spot? I assumed everyone but the division leader is a wildcard team.

I think the top 2 spots get a bye (bradweiser and MSM right now), regardless of which division they're in. 3-6 play each other - tiebreakers are determined by division record (apparently this is the only thing that divisions are relevant for)

I also noticed that everyone is playing their entire divisions twice this year (12 games), and only 1 game against the entire other division of 7 teams. Pretty dumb - but I don't make the rul....oh wait.

I don't think that is true. I think we played 2 teams out of our division so 1 team in our division was only played once. The schedule was pretty wacked. I've never done 14 teams before. Not sure how to make it work better.

Well either way - it's dumb to play nearly half the teams in the league twice, and the other half the teams not at all.

I have a wife and boy I have to feed. And my wife is pregnant with our 2nd child (girl). I've got to start saving up money now to waste on her overpriced wedding.

I'm 26 and my parents still haven't saved anything for mine... I guess I should be offended, huh?


and Beam, you're a lawyer and super rich (I know you are because I've seen you post on the OT). I need to go back to school so I can be rich, too.

My only advice for you Cubs is that if you want to keep whatever money you do make, don't marry an Ole Miss sorority chick. Sigh...

I'll try to learn from your mistakes, beam. Thanks for the heads up.

you call this smooth?


ZZ is calling for your head because a GIRL beat him out of the playoffs for the second straight year.

Your trash talking appears to be premature. Division record is only relevant for determining division leader. So I could lose and still lock up the division. Cuz I'm a lucky fricker and the football gods have deemed it so.

You Cubs must hope for a ZZ loss, or must earn a win of your own next week. As a wild card hopeful, division record is a non-issue. If you and ZZ have the same winning percentage, the tie breaker is points scored. You're currently ahead by only 7 points. So if you lose, and ZZ wins AND he scores 8 more points than you, you are shite out of luck.

My money says you bring down a V next week, securing your birth for the rights to eventually be pounded into submission by me, assuming the football gods feel such an outcome is deserved.

why do i get the feeling that no one is really rooting for me here? yall are such assholes.


it might be somewhat satisfying to deprive you of the chance of "pounding me into submission" if all my players die in a freak accident, though.

Perhaps i didn't make myself clear. I want you to win. I'm rooting for you. If you do not win, then I do not get the chance to pound you into submission. I want that.

Is that better?
