Around SBN: Ellenberger vs. Sanchez Heats Up, Hughes Talks Retirement

Shakedown League Update

Playoff berth's are nearly clinched and 4 teams are officially out of their division race. The top 6 remained on top and in the same order. The big 2 vs 3 matchup of the week was never close. Thanks to my worst day of the year on starter choices (Garrard over Garcia -12.2 pts, Andre Johnson over Driver -7.4pts, Lee Evans over Anthony Gonzalez -14.4pts) my Inflamed Bursa Sacs fell to Pat Beach 4 President.

In the only game with a single digit margin this week Tom Brady's Bastard Children escaped with a win over Marlin, Bob, Antoine, Kelvin-Heavy Hitters after slash196 was too late in trying to switch Adrian Peterson back into his starting lineup. Tough break. If it makes you feel any better slash196 you still would have been eliminated from your division race if you had won.

The current playoff field remains, [magic # for playoffs]

  1. 48 Layers of Kevlar (dothemathis98) 8-1      [1]
  2. Pat Beach For President (Matic) 8-1             [1]
  3. The Inflamed Bursa Sacs (Shake) 7-2          [2]
  4. Fighting For Last (jdb) 6-3                             [4]
  5. Tom Brady's Bastard Children (furrycolt) 6-3 [4]
  6. Memphis Red Dogs (ttmemphis) 5-4             [5]

Outside looking in

  • Hart Attack (Aerostar193) 4-5
  • Gotta Hart Hart (MarkFive05) 3-6

Matchup of the week is Memphis Red Dogs vs Hart Attack. Winner takes the 6th seed. A loss by Aerostar193 would guarantee playoff berths to Matic and dothemathis98 and allow me to clinch a playoff spot with a win.

Good luck to all, but less to Jake's Philly Ninja Hands

Oy

Not only am I mathematically eliminated, I’m also cursed. Not a good year for the Ninja Hands.

Not from the playoffs (yet)

you can make a run at a wildcard

Shonn Greene for Heisman
140 yards per game
6.3 yards per carry

Well yeah

I mean, the Raiders still have a shot to win the wildcard too. I’m just looking forward to rebuilding.

yeah...is jdb's stratetgy...

by design? i was really hoping he could make a run at 48 layers, but nope…multiple players on bye/injured. i think he only had like 4 guys that scored points!!!

by Matic on Nov 4, 2008 2:20 PM EST reply actions  

Boy I wanted that win

Figures the Steelers would drop 18 points on me when I was up by 12.1. Well, you can be damn sure I’ll have my lineup set this week.

I'm not losing this week

With Owens on bye, there’s no conflict whether to bench him or not. It’s in the bag.
