Rube, you resilient little bugger! 2-3 times I thought I had definitely put you away but damn you kept coming back... much to my distress.
Need Watson to give me 4 points today... I'm expecting he does, but if he doesn't - what's the tie breaker protocol?
I'll have to double-check on the tie breaker when I get home because I can't pull up anything on ESPN about it on my phone. However, I believe you would advance. It probably won't matter because I'm sure Watson will score at least 4 points.
If I could ever play the right WRs, it would be awesome. I have too many around the same level. If I had played Devonta Smith or Zay Jones, I would really be putting the pressure on you.
EDIT: I was right, you would advance if we tied. Here is the rule according to ESPN: "the tiebreaker for playoff games is each team's original seeding in the playoffs. In short, the team with the higher seed wins."
Rube! BROOOOOOOOOOOO
That was the most nerve wrecking fantasy game I've ever 'played'! I was texting Mike throughout the game, ask him how much profanity came outta my sewer mouth.
Well played man!
Congratulations to Fernandito and Wolfhr for winning in the first round and advancing!
Fernandito will take on the top seed Still Servant while Wolfhr will face the two seed death by snu snu.
Of course I score the second most points I have all year and the most since week two in a game that doesn't matter.
Congratulations to Still Servant and Wolfhr for making thedarktower.org Fantasy Football championship game!
Still Servant's Big CoughlinHunters beat Fernandito's Gilead Brewery 126 to 105. Apparently, Joe Burrow (Still Servant's QB) really does own Patrick Mahomes (Fernandito's QB.)
Wolfhr's Lud Billy Bumblers upset the number two seed death by snu snu 150 to 82, scoring their highest point total of the year.
Good luck in the championship!
I need a big game from Burrow, which is certainly possible, but I'm not counting on it.
I'm fortunate to even have a shot. If Wolfhr played Daniel Jones, I'd be toast.

With the Monday night game postponed and both teams in our championship having players in their lineups from the game, I am waiting to declare a winner. Let's see what the NFL and ESPN decide to do first then we will have to discuss options.
In the meantime, we will be praying for Damar Hamlin.
Good mind to Hamlin and his family. Hoping he makes a speedy recovery.
fyi...
NFL says Bills-Bengals will not be resumed this week, league has not changed Week 18 schedule
The NFL announced Tuesday afternoon that after discussion with both teams and the NFLPA, the game will not be resumed this week. The NFL also said it hasn't made any changes to the Week 18 schedule.
That opens up the possibility of the game not being played at all, or the start of the playoffs being pushed back. The league said no decision has been made on the possible resumption of the game at a later date.
With Hamlin doing better, I feel comfortable asking about this. Have we made a decision on how to handle the championship? I'm open to all options.

There are several ways we could handle the league championship game, which include:
1. Continue to wait until the NFL makes it official one way or the other. If they do replay it, apply the points from then.
2. Call the game where it stands
3. Add the week 18 points to the Buffalo and Cincinnati player's scores
4. Just call the championship a tie and put both names on the trophy. We would need to use one of the above methods to still sort out the draft order between the two.
For every game that is not the championship game, the results will stand where they are.

Congratulations to Wolfehr for winning the 2022 Thedarktower.org Fantasy Football Championship!
Wolfehr's Lud Billy Bumblers beat Still Servant's Big CoughlinHunters 118 to 91 after adjusting the week 17 final to include the week 18 stats for the Bills and Bengals on their teams. This is Wolfehr's first championship.
Thank you everyone for a great season. I hope to see you all back for next season. I will post the draft order for that in the coming days.
Congrats, Wolf!
And thanks again Commish for taking the time and organizing everything. This was another fun year and I look forward to the next!
Congratulations! Well deserved. The trio of Niners really fueled your team down the stretch. Another nice job, Rube. It's never easy being a commish and that's in a normal season. The way this season ended was certainly not normal.
I'm putting it out there now, I'd like to vote on moving to a PPR league. I'm not sure how everyone else feels about that.

what's the advantage of jumping to a PPR league?
A PPR league awards a point per reception so it gives extra points to WRs, TEs, and RBs that catch a lot of passes. It favors players that are heavily involved in the offense even if they aren't particularly effective. If you listen to most fantasy football experts, it has surpassed standard scoring (non-ppr) as the standard.
We can definitely put that up to a vote this off-season. I will probably include 1/2 point per reception as an option in the vote as well.
Thanks Rube!
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
