The Playoff Picture

Western Division

sycamore is 9-3
Griff 8-4
Jim 7-5
Troop - will finish 2-12

Central Division

Whip/Ducks 7-5
Blue 6-5-1
Jester 5-7
Toad 3-9

Eastern Division

Elspode 9-3 ( while totally asleep at the wheel, goddammit)
Jinx 7-4
otherguy 5-7
clodfobble 3-9

in the west:

sycamore plays troop next so will finish no worse than 10-4
Griff has to beat me AND sycmore to finish 10-4, but as the second tie breaker is total points, sycamore would win the division. If he DID win out, he'd take the wild card spot, so Griff controls his own destiny. I would need a mathematical miracle that i'm not about to type out.

Central:

blue faces WHIP/ducks this week, so if she wins, and they both win their subsequent games, blue's win pctg would be higher because of the tie. this week is essentially a playoff game for these two teams, as they will both probably roll over their next opponents (jester and UT respectively) jester needs an even bigger miracle than i do, and UT can look forward to a nice low draft pick next year.

In the East, Elspode faces two other absentee owners so will, undoubtedly finish 11-3, meaning jinx has no shot at the division title even though she will also trounce those same two foes as she faces them in turn. her best hope is for griff to lose at least one of his 2 much harder games. again, she has a tie, so her winning pctg would be higher if griff lost a game. otherguy has brett farvrrrrrrah, so he might shock one of those two teams, though.....and, thanks for playing clodfobble...your team has cool names. Both you and the other guy are mathematically eliminated at this point though.
