As in they don't want upsets or underdogs to win.

They want the top half of the playoff eligible teams to win, not the bottom half.

Fucking horribly stupid

Non money league?

Justin I think the idea is pretty interesting now knowing that it's an 8 team league and everyone makes the playoffs. It essentially saying hey you really shouldn't be in the playoffs but were giving you a chance but you have to overcome some terrible odds. Which it's nice for everyone to have a shot and not just the top 4 especially in a non money league where things aren't all that serious.

Yeah, this league is basically just a way for a small group of us from college to keep in touch and give each other shit throughout the year.

Just found out the 15 point home field advantage persists throughout the playoffs. That is stupid.

Would you start Julio Jones today? He might play but everyone says he won't be worth much regardless. My other option is LaFell. Or I could put Gio in my flex and Benjamin at WR.

@ESPNNFL: Falcons WR Julio Jones will NOT play in today's game vs Pittsburgh.

I have officially made it to the championship next week in a 12 team league, standard scoring. That was with losing two of my first five picks early in the year (Cruz and Ball)

So I am winning 96.02 to 95.98

Yes, .04 lol

He's done and I have Ingram tonight.

Do I bench Ingram and take the win? Or is the chance of stat corrections more of a threat then Ingram putting up negative points?

Ingram has a history of fumbling and I know Payton is getting frustrated with it.

If he could just rush for 50 yards 0 tds 0 turnovers that would be great lol

If I somehow lose this, it would cost me no less than $500 and potentially $1200.

After finishing the regular season in 2nd, with a record of 10-3, I will have lost in both Round 1 (where I played the 7th seed) and now Round 2.

Peyton, you stupid, giant-forehead-having buffoon.
