CaComm 12-29-04 OneMan Short of a Full Roster Final
Score: OneMan (85) over Woodies (63) - In what appears to be the most costly of coaching mistakes, gaffs, bone-headed moves, Woodies get 0 (zero) from his starting QB. Yes, folks in a move reminiscent of Hefe's first round playoff loss, Woodies QB is a last minute injury scratch, and his bench QB (Brady, QB, NE) racks 32 points for what would have successfully defended his Wolf Bowl Title. AS a side note, all 4 of his RB's (2 starters, and 2 bench players) also got a big goose-egg(s)! But the QB start, is what cost him the title... OneMan, on the other hand, coached a perfect 85 out of 85. Then again, her entire bench only scored 18 points. As they say, "A win is a win"!!! In the Consolation Bowl we have: Shortline Final
Score: Shortline (119) clubbing like a baby seal Schmen (86) - Welcome to the playoffs Schmen! Yes, I know your 86 points would have won you the title, but you have to get to the title game first. In what is Schmen's best showing in the league to date, way to step up your game. Now all we have to do is get you to feed the kitty on time, check the rules page... So gang, there it is, another year done. Just in case your already looking forward to revenge, competition, or smack, here is the draft order for the 2005 season:
Look for league finance information sometime in the next two weeks. I R out! Banana's 12-26-04 In the big bowl, we have One Man in good position with a 12 point lead and Holt going tomorrow night vs. Woodies attempt at making up the deficit and getting the win with Westbrook. Big points from Shortline in the consolation bowl posting up 119 points and daring Schmen to try to beat him from the 85 he currently has using only K David Akers. Summary tomorrow. FlComm 12-25-04 All lineups are in. Have a great holiday everyone. FlComm 12-23-04 FRIDAY & SATURDAY GAMES!!! Lineups are in for One Man & Woodies already. Schmen? Short? Short - you have players. Need lineups by 14:30 Eastern tomorrow (Friday) for all players who are Packers or Vikings. Saturday kick off is 17:00 Eastern, deadline :30 minutes before that. FlComm is now in CA. FlComm 12-21-04 Woodies, despite his QB woes this week, still pounces all over Shortline, and makes his way back to the Wolf Bowl, to defend his title. As noted yesterday by FlComm, this is a rematch of last years Wolf Bowl game... yawn... Congratulations to both OneMan and Woodies for proving yet another year how BAD the rest of us all suck rocks in this game. You both deserve a lot of credit. As a point of reference to you newer coaches in the league, we have had 6 seasons, the two of these coaches are past champions two times each. Thus after this year, they have dominated 72% of all the Championship Games. Yawn... On the other hand, the Consolation bowl has Shortline (again) vs. Schmen. Welcome to the playoffs Schmen, nice to see you have a competitive year. Of course, you WAIT until we move you to the dude division to actually do something with your team. Give you daughter all the credit she deserves, after all, she did draft this team!!! Shortline is no stranger to the playoffs... He is 1-1 in the Wolf Bowl games, and 1-2 in the Consolation Bowl games. FUNNY, he has been in the league 5 years, and made the playoffs each time!!! Loads of credit to you Shortline! So, coaches, submit your lineups any time, a have a great Christmas! As for me, I think it is time to follow Rick Williams into the sunset, and just go back to just watching football... Have a great week! later, CaComm... 12-19-04 Done: Might as Well be Done: Need's Tonight to Know: Should the games go as predicted, we'll see a match up of last years Wolf Bowl participants! More this week. FlComm 12-18-04 CaComm 12-17-04 CaComm 12-14-04 (continued) Without further adieu, here they are:
How about some other meaningless year end stats?...
In my good judgment, I'll leave all the big words to my colleague, who will be chiming in this week with commentary... CaComm 12-14-04 Playoff's - Round 2, Semi-finals:
FYI gang, this is a total rematch of last years semi-finals (substituting Schmen for Banana's). You have got to give a shout out to OneMan, Woodies, and Shortline for being consistent. Get those line-ups in early, and the Comm's can do some commentary, before game day. Later, CaComm. 12-13-04 In what was supposed to be the crappy game, "The Toilet Bowl", we had both coaches putting out one of, if not, their best performances of the season. Ultimately Marv (93) defeated Bumblin' (89) for next years first round draft pick... Remember last season? Woodies got LT, RB, SD, and rode him all the way to the Wolf Bowl!!! Great way to end a disappointing season Marv! Round 1 Playoffs:
CaComm 12-11-04 CaComm 12-7-04
So, what is in store for week 14?
Look for year ending stats and year ending awards to be posted after this round of the playoffs. Good Luck Coaches! CaComm 12-5-04 DONE: Bananas (114+) blowing out Bumblin (82) - Ok so maybe not a blowout! Banana's win it totally pointless, and still has Alexander, RB, SEA in the MNF contest. Banana's only shot here is for a the last weekly high point, and it will take 2 TD's and some yards!!! Bumblin' clenches a birth in the toilet bowl, way to break your way into the league! Squids (87+) defeating Schmensters (76) - This game became meaningless with the OneMan win. These two will play each other again next week to see who moves on in the playoffs. Squids still has Johnson, WR, DAL to go. Shortline (110) blowing out Hefe (44) - Ouch, yeah, that is a blow out. As noted by FlComm, this too will be a rematch next week in round 1. Hefe, how do you get into the playoffs scoring 44??? That's just SAD :( Woodies (125) blowing out Krunch (64+) - Krunch still has a kicker, big deal... Woodies clenches home field advantage, a first round bye, in the money again, and a chance to defend his Wolf Bowl title. Only one win away, nice job. So, enjoy the Monday night game, it means nothing for our league. Those of you playing again next week. Good Luck, play hard! CaComm 12-3-04 Good luck coaches, it is going to be an exciting weekend for the playoff contending teams. CaComm 11-30-04 The Dude division has it's playoff contenders, the only question that remains is who will take the division title. In the Y'all, the bubble spot will have to wait for this week to know. Only 1/2 game separates Krunch & Hefe. Here's how last night's game helped, or hurt: Bananas needed 21, from Driver, got 15... Close, but the loss along with the Schmen win has mathematically eliminated Bananas from the playoffs. As stated, Schmen held on for the win over One Man, who had a game to burn to retain first place in the Dude, but now must win in week 13 to win the division. Hefe needed a bunch from his guys last night and got it. Even though Green didn't play, Bulger tossed up 47 points, while Bruce hauled in 17. Easy win for Hefe. Dude: Y'all: We'll look at matchups this week. FlComm 11-29-04 DONE: Shortline (108), Squids (108) MIGHT AS WELL BE DONE: NEED TONIGHT TO KNOW: Schmen (115) over One Man (60+) Krunch (59) over Hefe (30+) Playoff analysis tomorrow... FlComm 11-28-04 FlComm 11-25-04 Total scores for the Thanksgiving Day are posted. FlComm 11-25-04 FlComm October moved to the Archive page. 11-24-04
Do you have a Cowboy? (probably not...) A Bear? (maybe...) A Lion? (maybe...) A Colt? (probably...) Get your lineups in. Check the rules page on the full rule text, but basically if you have a player going tomorrow, get a lineup in indicating whether you are starting them or not. FlComm 11-23-04 That play-off picture is getting much clearer now. Three things are known -
For the rest of us, lets see what last night's game yielded: Shortline got only 14 from his Gonzoles / NE Def tandem, leaving One Man with the aforementioned win, and he with the week 11 low point. Of course, Holmes did not play for Krunch, and Squids got that win. Any combination of a Squid win or Banana's loss now will clench a playoff spot for Squid. In what was a tough week for the Y'all division, Bananas dropped the Dude's only loss in a tough one against Woodies last night, and with the combination of his win, and Hefe, Krunch & Shortline's losses, put him back atop the Y'all division. Bananas is now truly a bubble team looking in. Schmen faces One Man & Squids (a combined 15-7) in the last two weeks while Bananas will be seeing Marv's & Bumblin (a combined 5-17). Of note: Bumblin & Bananas still need a TE start... Schmen got a monstrous 38 from Trent Green, who threw nearly 400 yards in last night's loss. Some match up analysis later this week. FlComm 11-22-04 No Orlando - West Palm! That's just a sample. When I wring the rest of the alcohol from my brain cells, I'll undoubtedly remember more... So how bout the games? DONE: MIGHT AS WELL BE DONE: Squids (78+) tentacly (get it? tentacly,
tentatively? I can't believe it took me until week 11 to come up with that
one...) over Krunch (74+) NEEDS TONIGHT TO KNOW: Bumblin (66) over Schmen (57+) That's all for today folks. I'll put up more manana. FlComm 11-21-04 All lineups in. Good Luck everyone! FlComm 11-20-04 Good Luck everyone this weekend! FlComm 11-17-04 Marv's: one loss or if Bananas and Schmen win any of their next three, he's done. Bumblin: any combination of a loss or a Hefe win over the next three, he's done. How close are the locks? - One Man is 2 games ahead of the Dude's
bubble teams, Bananas & Schmen. If she only needs to win one out of the
final 3 for no worse than a tie should Bananas or Schmen win out. Notably, the
on loss would have to be to Schmen in week 12 for the "Schmen to win
out" scenario to come to fruition. Hey! I believe that's the first time I
got to use the word "fruition" on the site! How providential! Hey -
I'm sure I've never used providential! How auspicious! Hey! --- Where was I? Oh yeah - Schmen or Bananas win out... that leave Dude tied for first - where's the tie break? - Bananas & One Man have already split their games so it goes to total points, where Bananas currently has a 83 point lead. Schmen also leads in that tiebreak by 92... It would behoove One Man to keep winning. Between the Dude bubble teams, Bananas appears to have the much easier schedule: Woodies this week, then Marv's (2-8) and Bumblin' (also 2-8). Schmen gets Bumblin' this week, then it's One Man and Squids to close the season. Tough row to hoe, but Schmen controls his own destiny. Squids sees Krunch, Shortline & Schmen to close out... the non divisional route. Two wins he has a play off lock, realistically one out of the next 3 should get him there, especially if it is over Schmen. Y'all - Stuff's tight over here. Difference between first and being out of the playoffs right now is only 1.5 games. Assuming Bumblin' doesn't pull off the miracle, the road for the other four doesn't appear to favor anyone, with the possible exception of Shortline's sched, which appears slightly tougher: Shortline will see One Man then Squids, the Hefe. Shortline is averaging 12 ppg more than One Man, but the Karma is there, man... No doubt Squids 100 ppg is formidable, and you know Hefe will be hungry to finish in the top 3. Woodies, the powerhouse through week 5, lost 3 straight before finally pulling a tough win in week 10. In a strange twist of fate, he and his Co-Commish buddy face each other in week 11, in a tilt that he needs just as much as Bananas. He'll face Bumblin in week 12 & Krunch in the last week that could be very decisive. Krunch is perilously hanging onto the bubble spot, only 1/2 game ahead Hefe. Krunch can make his own bed - he goes against Squids this week, then Hefe in week 12, and Woodies in the final week. Finally, there's Hefe - Needing to keep winning, while looking for a little help - and a little (one loss is all it will take) help from either Krunch or Woodies to get the bubble spot. How close is this division? If Hefe had beaten Woodies this last week, he would have been in 2nd place instead of 4th. Looking forward to the next 3 weeks! FlComm 11-15-04 NightCap Marv's beats Squids So, this weeks awards: In a strange twist of fate, ALL teams are still alive in the playoff hunt! Submit your rosters at anytime, No trades or Free Agents period. CaComm out, FlComm in!!! 11-15-04 Boy, do the 49ers suck butt or what!? Rattay, QB, SF 4 INT's, yes 4!!! 2 for Defensive scores late in the game!!! Ugly, pathetic. Dr. York and his bean counting ways has to GO!!! Is it time for the fans to start to wear grocery bags, and call us the San Fran Aint's??? Sad, very sad!!! Oh yeah, there were some good football teams playing yesterday, and some good games. How did your team stack up: DONE: CALL EM DONE: NEED TONIGHT TO
KNOW: Squids (95) leading Marvs (79+) - Squids is done, while "Mr. Take it Like a Man" is still in this one! He has Vinny, QB, DAL going, and needs 17 points for the win. Vinny is averaging 25 ppg. ADVANTAGE: Marvs! Hefe (92) leading Schmen (81+) - Hefe is done, Schmen has Akers, K, PHI in the contest. His 10 PPG average makes this an interesting matchup tonight. You know Schmen and his daughter will be counting all the points tonight. GO HEFE, I need the HELP to make the playoffs, sorry Schmen. ADVANTAGE: Pickem' Shortline (94) barley surviving Driftwoodies (92+) - Shortline is done, Woodies trots out Westbrook, RB, PHI and needs just a decent game to win this one. Someone needs to slow Shortline down in the Y'all, who better than the defending Wolf Bowl Champion, Woodies! ADVANTAGE: Woodies Krunch (83+) over Bumblin (73+) - Krunch has OWENS, WR, PHI vs. Bumblins Smith, WR, PHI and the PHI DEF in this one. Errr... this seems like a no brainier her folks. ADVANTAGE: Krunch running away!
Tomorrow recap will be short! I have a very short, and very Busy week!!! Marv's and Banana's board a plane headed to Driftwoodies house on Thursday. It's gonna be a killer visit, culminating in the 49ers getting routed by the Bucs on Sunday. We got some good seats, for what might be a good game!! I'm really looking forward to seeing Raymond James Stadium and that pirate ship!!! So look for a Bald Guy and Doofus wearing 49ers colors on TV this weekend! We will be the ones at the bottom of the scrum pile!!! :) CaComm 11-13-04 WOW, the battle of 1-7 teams, maybe the 49ers have a chance? Enjoy the games coaches. CaComm 11-12-04 So, barring any unforseen oooppss on my
part, this years Free Agent shopping spree is done. Ready for you lineups coaches. This week is really some teams last
chance: Flip Side: Later, gotta go CaComm 11-10-04 So, Good game Monday night, here's is how it shook out: Marv's comes up short again (that is what she said, hehe!), Krunch prevails 94 vs. 91 Banana's Blows, and pulls down the Weekly Low Point at 65. Schmen has taken the season series over Banana's. Woodies made a run at Hefe, but didn't catch him. Woodies drops his FOURTH in a row, ouch, 92 to 98. Bumblin' enjoyed his lead in this one for, oh, say, about 5 minutes into the game. From there on, he just watched Manning beat the hell out of him... Bumblin drops another, Shortline wins another, FINAL 89 to 77. Lastly, has OneMan's magic run coming to an end? It sure slowed this week as SQUIDS put a 35 point pasting on! Squids wins his 3 high point in 9 weeks. That's a damn good batting average!
So, In my best Jim Mora Senior voice "PLAYOFFS, Playoffs, who is talking PLAYOFFS". Well, how do it look? More later.... (my best impression of a teaser) LAST WEEK to make a TRADE or get a FREE AGENT!!! Meat market is open... CaComm 11-09-04 FlComm 11-08-04 Lets see the scores & where we are in Week 9: DONE: MIGHT AS WELL BE DONE: Schmen up by 32 over Bananas... surely this one "might as well be done"... Schmen has Onterrio Smith going to night, who will split time with Bennett, while Bananas is sporting WR's Burleson & Stokley... in tonight's matchup - this one is too close to put in this category. It "Needs Tonight to Know" Hefe is done & up by 15 over the idle Driftwoodies: Nope, can't call this one done - Woodies still has WR Harrison going tonight. Bumblin up by 24 over Shortline? No clear cut here either, as Shortline has Manning & WR Robinson going against Bumblin's Vanderjagt tonight. Squids up by 21 over One Man & let's see who's playing tonight... Here we go! I think we can call this one: Squids has his 21 plus whatever Culpepper can put up against One Man's Edgerrin James. Barring injury, I think we can notch One Man's first loss in 8 games... NEEDS TONIGHT TO KNOW: There you have it folks. See you tomorrow! FlComm 11-05-04 FlComm 11-04-04 Trades are in and processed - Bumblin must have been paying attention to the comment CaComm made about his 4 must starts out of 5 games left as he put in for a TE. Unfortunately for him his first choice was Marv's TE. (Note to Bumblin: you can't do that w/out their permission) He got his second choice though and we're all set to see a slew of Bumblin TE starts for the final run. Short, Krunch, Woodies, Schmen, Bananas will reap the benefit. Got the league fees from Schmen (my fault for the non-tally). Is it right that Hefe is still deadbeatin'? Marque matchups this week: Squids vs. One Man. Hefe vs. Woodies Looking for lineups! FlComm 11-1-04 Sorry for the late post, but SBC is tweaking with my DSL again, and it is out at home! Dil-rods!!!! Well, the CALL 'EM DONE games, had no change. Big surprise!!! However, in the NEED TONIGHT TO KNOW games, lookie' what happened: Woodies leading by 8 points, got 4 more, now leading by 12. However OneMan is on a steam roll in the league, and pulled out 11 from Martian, and 13 from the freakin' kicker. OneMan is mounting her own "Patriots" like winning streak at 7, and appears unstoppable. She is quietly leading, by a good distance, in the power rankings too. Kelly, the woe is me act is done, no one is falling for it :) In our other contest, Krunch needed a whopping 16 from a TE. When does that ever happen? I guess I should learn never to say never, as McMichael pull out 16 for his coach and got him a TIE! No, not the kind you wear around your neck, and in Marv's case, not the kind you then tighten, R-E-A-L tight! So, where does that put the league with 5 regular season games remaining:
Hoehum, another week... CaComm out! P.S. Welcome back to the mainland Woodies! |
