IF the current scores hold up, looks like I'll miss out on winning the division in the 4th tiebreaker... ouch

Nine Riders and I would both be 7-6 (tiebreaker #1)
We split head to head (tiebreaker #2)
We'd both be 4-2 in the division (tiebreaker #3)
Goes to total points scored... looks like Nine Riders will outscore me by somewhere around 30-40 points for 13 weeks... ouch.

Too many teams at 6-6 to figure out if I'd be a wild card... going to cross my fingers and hope!

Oh well, either way I'm happy considering I thought I'd win maybe 3 games this year if I was lucky

Uh, no.

I'm not sure what you're looking at, but you've outscored me by 55pts going into this week, and you're outscoring me by 40pts or so this week alone.  So you'll actually win the 4th tiebreaker.

The division, such as it is, is yours.  Good luck in the playoffs.

I am an idiot.  I was looking at points ALLOWED instead of points SCORED.

I guess it will be interesting to see what team gets a cakewalk in the first round by facing me...

My bad.

As for the rest of the playoff picture:

Chorgis (1st seed), Roseville (3rd seed) and Warsaw (4th seed) have locked up their playoff spots.  Monsoons and Vegans (with their win this week) have secured playoff spots.  The last WC spot will be either Nine Riders or Deadly Force.  If Deadly Force wins, he's in, because we'll be looking at a 3 way tie for the last 2 WC spots at 7-6, and my squad, Nine Riders, loses all 3 way ties due to lowest total points of the teams still alive.  If Deadly Force loses, Nine Riders will occupy the #6 seed, with Monsoons/Vegans occupying the #2 and #4 spots.  (It looks like Monsoons is in trouble, leaving Vegans as the #2 seed and Monsoons as the #4 seed).

Am I missing something?

Actually, is it out of the ream out possibility that my undeserving team could end up as a #2 seed with a first round bye?

If the Blue Division champ is 7-6 and so am I, and we go to Head-to-Head, I actually have wins over Vegans and Monsoons, but not Knackers.

Could I possibly have a chance to be the worst #2 seed of all time here, or am I missing something?

Seeing me as a #3 seed already made me chuckle a bit :-)

I guess I missed that.  If Monsoons won Blue, you'd still be stuck at 3 with 7 wins as opposed to Monsoons 8.  But as it appears that Monsoons is destined to lose and finish with 7 wins, and since they'll lose the tie breaker to the Vegans for the Blue division title, it does look like you'll end up with the 2nd seed and a bye.

You're welcome Renegades.....

Who would have thought the worst team in the league (mine) would play the spoiler knocking off the Nine Riders to give Renegades the #2 seed?

And I did it with Tarvaris Jackson, and Sidney Rice in my lineup. :-D

Knocking me off isn't exactly something I'd put on my resume... :-)

And it certainly was nice of you to win the last week so you could help two teams.  I figured the second pick was a lock, was I surprised come Tuesday morning to find that you had won last week, giving me the first overall pick in the draft next year.  Thanks for that, by the way. 

Now, if only All-Day can single handedly carry me through the consolation bracket for a #13 pick.
