Week 13 Playoff Scenarios

Thanks for making this easy for me, guys.

Suspended Atomnation and Psychotic Ninjas have clinched the two week 14 byes.  The only remaining drama here is whether Adam can sneak past Kubicek to hold on to the #1 seed, or whether he'll fall to Kubicek while I polish off Levi, thus grabbing the #1 seed I so rightfully deserve.

Team Harbaughs, Los Diablos and Golden Grahams have all clinched playoff spots, and none of them can get a first-round bye, so the only (*yawn*) drama there is which seeds will go to which teams.

The only real drama of week 13 is determining who will get the final playoff spot.  Mex has so many points that he'll easily clinch with a victory over Jody.  If Mex should lose, however, the #6 seed would go to either Polly Prissy Pants or the River Horses depending on point totals.

Unless, of course, Mex, Taylor and Pete all lose, and Levi casts an evil spell on me to win our matchup, which is the only way the Leviathans can make the playoffs.

However it shakes out, 3 of these 4 teams will miss the playoffs, and will thus join Merrill in a week 14 playoff to try to stay out of the Toilet Bowl bracket.  The Screaming Eagles and Strike Team have already clinched week 14 byes to participate in the Toilet Bowl playoff in weeks 15 and 16.

Also . . . since I've scored really a WHOLE LOT of points already this season, it has motivated me to look back at scoring totals in the Modern Era --- and I'm on pace to absolutely smash the previous scoring record of 1223 points, set by Taylor/Yac Attack in 2011.  Of course, as Taylor has already pointed out to me, the new scoring system we implemented this year increases everyone's total by an average of 3.5 points per game.  But even taking that into account, Adam and I both are going into uncharted territory when it comes to scoring this year.

Would someone please beat Adam, by the way?
