Ye Olde Playoffe Scenareeos

Ande, Myself, Kiwon, Crazy have all clinched playoff berths...two remain up for grabs between four squads. Aero, Bill, Karalis, Halbert -- thanks for playing (also, in case you didn't know, KRal is no longer the worst team in the GOFFL, that honor belongs to the other married guy...recent studies are providing irrefutable evidence that marriage=death of manhood/fantasy prowess)

Wk13 Key Matchups --
Ande (9-3) v PGz (9-3) ... Winner takes $125 division prize and 1st-round bye (#1 seed)
Kiwon (7-5) v Crazy (7-5) ... Winner takes $125 division prize and 1st-round bye (#2 seed)
(Fine print-- Division winners take home $125+guaranteed 4th place finish of $250=$375)

The four remaining eligible teams -- Vande, Steve, Mugica, Roscher all play against 4-8 squads

For Vande to clinch -- Win OR Mug Loss OR Steve Loss+Steve Not Outscoring him by 27.0pts (I confused myself...just don't lose and have Steve and Mug win)
For Steve to clinch -- Win OR Mug Loss+Rosch Loss OR Mug Loss+Rosch Not Outscoring him by 38.8pts.
For Mugica to clinch -- Win AND Steve/Vande Loss
For Roscher to clinch -- Win AND Mug Loss AND Steve Loss AND Outscore Steve by 38.8pts.

**All point differences of 65+ deemed insurmountable

Total Points Race ($250/175/125)
Ande - 1053.0
Gizz - 1043.7 (-9.3) +28.0 on Vande for 2nd
Vande - 1015.7 (-37.3) +27.0/33.5/45.9 for 3rd
Steve - 988.7 (-64.3)
Kiwon - 982.2 (-70.8)
Crazy - 969.8 (-83.2)

These findings have not been audited by the GOFFL Ethics Committee, because they have nothing to do with ethics, unless I'm just blatantly lying about all of this (**Nothing official)

Is Mugica this years Halbert?

After an opening week loss at the hands of Kiwon, Mugica has proceeded to rattle off 4 victories. In these victories, he has yet to sniff the 90 point mark. He also finds himself 2 wins ahead of a team that he is 50+ points behind. However, if we call weeks that are not within 20 points of the majority of weeks that team has played an outlier, then Mugica has averaged a full 1.7 points above the league average. Which make me believe he indeed has a better than average team that should have a record above .500.

We then begin to think hmmmm... who is this years halbert? Lets start with the lowest scoring team Karalis. He must immediately be eliminated from consideration based on the fact he has no wins and the premise of this competition is that a team gets lucky in its wins. Next up the list, Halbert, has 1.7 more points than Karalis and 2 more wins. Using the same outlier premise as we used with Mugica, we toss out 2 of Halberts weeks and find his average to be 24 points lower than league average at 53 points.

Makes things quite clear... Halbert IS this years Halbert! That lucky bastard.

Seems to me like we got a good ol' fashioned....


Guess I'll cut to the chase since Steve has not posted his team name ranks and Commish Gizz has not posted his power ranks...

Best Team Name:
Your Body Quit Your Bird Quit (guess if we look back to last year Aero takes the top spot in this category)

Worst Team Name:
Tied for the lazy asses at 1375 N Milwaukee - Team Ande/Team Jameson

Power Rank #1:
I'll have a CHINCHILLA!

That being said, I will change my team name EVERY single week if I see a picture of James Simon on the 2010 Blog... I get annoyed with that as easily as you get annoyed seeing Hedlin posting pictures of half naked ladies...

Where have all the bloggers gone???
