Football God: Week 16: Tis the season baby

Sorry the update is late this week, I've had my hands full with lots of shit. But, I'll try to get to it now. I'm going to talk briefly about fantasy football first.

So, John has somehow pulled himself into the semi-finals with a low scoring win over Geiss. Jim's team put up a respectable number of points, while Colin put together a thousand point week to destroy his way into the semis. So, this week the playoffs look like this

(1) Andrew

(5) John

(6) Colin

(2) Joe

My predictions for this week, Andrew's team is projected to lose to John, and although John is a one man wrecking crew, Andrew's team has won whenever I assumed he wouldn't all year. I'm taking Andrew 110 - John 94

In the other game, Joe has been scoring an unbelievable pace recently, and lucky for Colin, his team has shown that they can score like that too. Looking at matchups, I like Joe's team better this week. Gonna take him 543 - 489.

Total scores for Fantasy Football look like this.

Each team that's in the semi finals gets a 20 point bonus

Andrew 110

Joe 100

John 100

Colin 90

Jim 80

Geiss 80

Adam 70

Simon 60

Shawn 60

Folden 60

Munez 60

Bono 50

Pro Pick 'em looks like this right now.

Colin 154

Folden 146

Jim 145

Shawn 143

Simon 142

Geiss 141

Andrew 140

Bono 140

Adam 133

Munez 130

Joe 127

John 84

It's looking pretty for sure now that Colin is going to win this, it would take a pretty big fall in the last two weeks of the season for him to lose.

Before we get into anything else I want to add some total scores, then I'll get into the predictions and where we are with that.

Totals (College total score + pro pick'em + fantasy score + (bonus) =

Shawn 342+143+60+(15)=560

Geiss 307+141+80=528

Adam 293+133+70+(10)=506

Jim 264+145+80+(10)=499

Folden 286+146+60+(10)=502

Joe 274+127+100+(10)=511

Simon 271+142+60+(5)=478

Andrew 266+140+110+(10)=526

Munez 261+130+60=451

Bono 258+140+50+(15)=463

Colin 232+154+90+(15)=491

John 175+84+100=359

Joe 511

Adam 506

Folden 502

Jim 499

Wow, what a swing. Now there are only 8 points between first and third, and only 67 points between first and 11th. The only person it's safe to say is out of it this year is John.

Also, big fucking suprise that Simon and Folden are tied.

Keep in mind that out of Andrew, Joe, John, and Colin. One of the four will get 20 more points for making it to the championship game, and whoever wins will add 50 points to their total. So if you aren't Andrew, Colin, or Joe, you probably want to route for John to win.

14 games into the season, and all of our teams that we chose to win the Superbowl are still in the playoff hunt. John and I's choice of San Diego and Bono's choice of Philadelphia are long shots, but still possible.

Another prediction that's almost all but certainly over foll all of us is the top 3 draft picks of next year. Indi is guaranteed one of them, while Minnesota or the Rams would have to win out. I don't know how the tie break would work then. But it's looking like it's going to fall in that way somehow.

That's it for this week. Everyone have a nice Christmas, and I'll get back at you all next week. Until then, I love you all
