I woke up to a fun game! A few of my starters actually really delivered, and my team managed to even nearly match yours on projected game totals at one point when I woke up this morning. Given you’ve still got Mahoney and Allen while I’m only waiting on a usually underperforming Ekeler, I have no expectations of pulling off the W, but who knows. And although my other TE was marked as able to play before the Rams game started, he still hasn’t made any points yet, so I guess Hockenson’s whimsy 1.6 point offering was potentially better than nothing if things continue in this trend. Lol Looking forward to what the Chiefs/Chargers game will bring us. Hey it is a good game! Probably the only match in doubt for this week's Monday Night Football game. I was a little worried, as much as I have been since the one loss I've got, because Derrick Henry has just been so amazing and consistent nearly every week, that finally on his bye I couldn't count on him. Sure enough, the strange and frustrating San Francisco offense got their star running back Tevin Coleman a grand total of 14 yards. Yeesh. Other than that? I mean, it's really not a bad week. You've just had a good one. Hoping for 375 and 4 TDs from Mahomes. We'll see! Here we go buddy! No expectations from me, but I’d love to see Ekeler get more action considering Melvin Gordon has really taken away a lot of pointage from him recently. Already so far it’s a positive start for my guy, but he’ll have to be stellar to outscore your two players. I’ll be monitoring in and out over the next hour or so. Edit: Holy shit. What a rollercoaster I’ve been seeing. Lesson a minute to go, Chargers have the ball, I’m down By 2 points. If they can get the ball to Ekeler, I may have a shot! This is a really fun game.

Ha, wow, that was a crazy finish to our match. You've given me the two most exciting matches of the year. Great comeback win. Well done!

It's your now weekly playoff update. Wait, did i say... Yes Winter is coming! Anyway, here's where we stand: Teams eliminated from playoff (winner's bracket) contention:Team Pritchett 2-9 Aqua Mosh 2-9 Teams who need a miracle but i'm sayin' there's a chance:Yo Triplesix 3-8 Teams absolutely in the hunt even if they feel disappointed:Team Crowe 5-6 Shanghai Pandas 5-6 (would be in the playoffs if it started today!) Teams who should feel good but can't quite let up yet:Fridge McNukem's 6-5 Crazytrain Calamity 7-4 Teams who have clinched a playoff spot:Bainzy Bainzy 8-3 (at least a wildcard berth) Two Coopers One Kupp 8-3 (at least a wildcard berth) Delaware Destroyers 9-2 (at least a wildcard berth) Still so much left unknown! We have two weeks to go but no division winners, but they could be decided next week. ORRRRRR... ...we could be headed for an epic Week Thirteen! Because DD and TKOC play in the final game of the season, and that would be the winner-take-all (I think) for the the East Division. And how about the West? Well there's just one game separating them as well, and Bainzy Bainzy has a brutal two-week gauntlet facing TKOC this week AND THEN Crazytrain Calamity the week after that, essentially for the division title! Couldn't have scripted it any better! In the meantime, 7-4 you'd think would be good enough to clinch a spot but NOT YET SON. We can still have a comeback from Crowe or the Pandas. Time will tell! Play well and play hard!

Ha, wow, that was a crazy finish to our match. You've given me the two most exciting matches of the year. Great comeback win. Well done! Oh wow, I had actually forgotten about our week 2 game. Just looked back for the first time at all the previous games I had. That one was also quite close! Had I known as well back then as I do now how to use this app and how Fantasy works, that one probably would have been way more memorable than it seems now for me. Looking at my week 1 lineup was funny, because I didn’t really choose some of those players and some of them were totally just not fitting. I especially remember struggling with that damn TE for the Bears that hardly saw any action this season. Despite that, week one almost got me to 190 points. Ekeler and Wentz has amazing week 1 performances. Great game, buddy!

Yep. The week I decided to finally ditch Gurley for constant underperformance when I start him and overperforming on the rare occasions I didn’t start him was also a week he boomed. But honestly, I was always bitching about him when I had him, and I don’t need that anymore. He’s one of the best RBs, but he just doesn’t always get the ball much. And especially considering the Rams offense isn’t that great this season, he’s increasingly risky to play. There’s always that time when you think “okay, they’ve gotta play him more next week because that’s what will keep their drives long and fruitful,” but then you’ll often be wrong. But it doesnt surprise me a few of you went after him. He might be great for the rest of the season, and he might let you down too. Will be interesting to see.

Kinda figured y'all would go for him, but I didn't realize it would be all 3 teams below me in the waiver order (I was 7th, so it must have been in order of record this week). Gurley, Aaron Jones, and Zeke - I'll take my chances with that stable of backs.

Oh man, shit is crazy this week in Fantasyland! Check your scoreboard, people, wild stuff going on... I’ve been looking every few hours since yesterday’s games started. Haha! You’re having a really good week! My game with Aqua is still interesting, but I don’t think it will be a very close game or anything. Would have been way more fun if Zach Pascal had touched the ball in the Colts game...that pissed me off. He’s was one of the few receiver options for the Colts and Brisset never got the ball to him...well, there was that one pass attempt which was out of his reach. Dropping Pascal this week. Don’t even care if I don’t have a replacement for his sorry ass.

Good game, aquafina! It got closer than I expected, thanks to Mark Ingram being a badass. Everett not producing much however didn’t surprise me. That game was nearly a full-on blowout! Holy shit the Ravens! Lamar Jackson has a lot of buzz, but it’s definitely well-deserved. And in general, the team is in top form. Would be exciting to see them at Super Bowl against 49ers or Patriots. Especially 49ers. They have been badass this year.

Week Twelve scores:Yo Triplesix (3-9-0, 5th in East Division) 123.1vs. Team Crowe (6-6-0, 4th in West Division) 124.9 That's how we do it. Definitely wasn't sweating over 1.8 points down to the very last second...

Oooooh boy it's almost here!! What's up?? Teams eliminated from playoff (winner's bracket) contention:Team Pritchett 2-10 Aqua Mosh 3-9 Yo Triplesix 3-9 Teams who can clinch a playoff spot with a win this week:
Shanghai Pandas 5-7 Team Crowe 6-6 Teams who have clinched a playoff spot:
Fridge McNukem's 7-5(clinched #3, #4, #5, or #6 seed) Crazytrain Calamity 7-5 (clinched #4, #5, or #6 seed) Two Coopers One Kupp 8-4 (clinched #3 or #4 seed) Bainzy Bainzy 9-3 (clinched West Division title, First Round bye, and #2 overall seed) Delaware Destroyers 10-2 (clinched East Division title, First Round bye, and #1 overall seed) So you see the easy part: we have our division champions! Congrats Bainzy Bainzy for slugging it out in the competitive West Division, as there will be no tiebreaker game next week. Also congrats... to me! I've cleared the field and I can sit all my starters this week. (No, I won't do that). We each get byes in the first round of the playoffs to see the others slug it out. We also have three teams now eliminated. But don't worry, the consolation bracket is just as much fun, so please keep playing Weeks 14-16. The fun part is everything in the middle. TCOK has clinched a spot with that 8th win, but it's up in the air where they will land in the first round. With a win, they clinch the #3 seed and a date with the #6. With a loss... they could still be #3, or #4! TCOK won both matches against Crazytrain, but LOST both matches against the Nukes. So a loss here and a Nuke win would be a huge comeback and big disappointment for a team with three Ls to end the year. Crazytrain Calamity and Fridge McNukem's faced each other last week in the biggest game of Week Twelve, and now are tied but have clinched playoff spots. But of course, CC actually is in better shape having bested the Nukes two times this year! So that tiebreaker is absolutely crucial and wild since Fridge McNukem's could get the #3 seed with a win and TCOK loss, but could even fall to #6 because of a brutal loss to Team Crowe who holds a tiebreaker over them. At the same time, Team Crowe, who has had a wild wild season -- opening with 4 straight losses, then going 6-2 in the next eight weeks -- also bested Crazytrain Calamity back in Week Six (every week matters!!) and holds THAT tiebreaker too! So despite not even clinching a playoff berth, Crowe can actually launch up to the #4 seed if the chips fall their way. And while CC is in the playoffs for sure, they could land anywhere among the wildcard contenders. But speaking of Crowe, that leads us to the surefire game of the week, game of the year really, as Team Crowe and the Shanghai Pandas face off in the biggest match of the season. Winner moves on, loser stays home! Even though the Pandas are behind a game, they will earn the tiebreaker with a victory, as it'll be their second W against Crowe this year. If so, the Pandas would be locked into the #6 seed. Weeeee!!! Buck up fellas, it's the last week of the regular season!

I bet you'd be a great commentator, too.
