Official 2019 MyGolfSpy Fantasy Football League

I’m thinking my luck is better than my skill. I was .500 using my crappy auto draft team and I think I’m .100 winning percentage trading guys. Blackngold is a bad influence.

As Bucky said it is about 50-50 between luck and skill.
In another league I’m in, I was projected to win by 40 points cuz the guy never switched his lineup. Unfortunately my QB Watson was outscored by Garrapallo by 32 points and Edelman had more passing touchdowns than Watson. I still have 2 players left but I’m down 60 in a non ppr league.

Serious question...is fantasy football skill or luck? I was projected to win both my games today. I’m down by like 80 in one game and will lose the second game I’m sure. Robert Woods out due to personal reasons 10 minutes before a Sunday night game....really? Just figured that out?

You actually won't move in the standings despite going 0-2 if my quick look math is right haha

There is a lot of both involved. You just have to put yourself in the best situation possible and hope for the best. You'll see a trend over the years of who continually makes the playoffs and who doesn't.

[STUDque]

And we’ve reached the final week of the regular season. This league is definitely a sprint to the playoffs.  Looks like we’re in for quite a circus of scenarios for playoff seeding.

As a refresher, the top 6 in each division make the playoffs with the top 2 in each receiving first round byes. The top 8 in each still have a chance to make it. The only bye secured is @00sportsman as the #1 seed in Shooter and is the last team with a chance to eclipse the 20-win mark. 

Teams that are currently playoff eligible simply need to win 2 to get in. Due to the matchups, it appears that the 7 and 8 seeds can mostly get in without help by winning 2 themselves. 
 

Key matchups this week:

@Camcmart vs @GolfSpy Stroker both teams have a chance to earn a bye but either could find themselves out of the playoffs with an 0-2 week if the chips fall just right

@revkev vs @GolfSpy Stroker Rev, looking in from the 7 seed needs to win to make playoffs in Shooter and Stroker fighting for position in the congested Stud division. I’m sure both teams would like to see 2 wins awarded in this matchup but there can only be one.

@GolfSpy STUDque vs @GolfSpy MBP besides being 2 staffers, this pair of 7 seeds is making their bid to make the playoffs. Unless a wild set of circumstances occurs, only one can punch a ticket.

@mudfish vs @B.Boston Two teams who have basically wrapped up playoff spots are fighting to earn byes in their respective divisions. 

@Shankster vs @Steve2100 the 5 and 6 seeds in Berg duel it out. There’s scenarios where both teams make the playoffs anyway but I’m sure you’d feel a lot better winning this one.

@GB13 vs @Hackster The winner of this matchup will likely earn themselves a bye in Berg. What serendipity that this match up of titans lines up on the final week of the season.

@00sportsman vs @mudfish 2 of the top 3 teams overall face off in this matchup as they play for bragging rights overall and mudfish bids to earn himself a bye. What a tough final week for mud.

 

 

...... and many more of course. This just outlines how many different things can happen in a deep and tightly contested league. Thanks for a great regular season everyone. 

——————————————————————————
I don’t know if you can say the circus league is heating up, being a circus and all, but there’s about to be some interesting team management as players are reaching the 8-start cap and the playoffs approach. In that league, there’s no trade deadline (including playoffs) but teams lock from moves once eliminated. Top 8 make it and the regular season has 4 more weeks to go. 

[revkev]

It's been an interesting season - I feel as if my team under performed the first half but we are coming on - hopeful about sneaking into the playoffs (now that my major bye's are bye, bye, bye) and seeing where we go from there.

Good luck everyone.

[GB13]

It’s been a really fun season. My teams have been very much boom or bust each week, hopefully I Boom this week so I can end up with a bye.. Good luck @Hackster, but I’m gonna win.

It's been a great season, even though I hit a pretty rough patch the last few weeks. I've had a great time playing along with all of you, and thank you for letting me join.

Good luck to those of you who advance to the playoffs. It'll be fun to follow along and see who gets the bragging rights.

Man, the season has flown by.

I know, it’s nothing like the long fantasy golf season. I was just thinking about how to set my team up for a good playoff run, and then I realized that I need a plan to win now, not in 5 weeks! 

[Bucky CC]

Do rosters lock for non playoff teams to make sure top players are not dumped to the waiver wire?  Not sure I understand dropping Rodgers but keeping Mayfield and Tannehill on a roster.

Well, Cam’s currently playoff eligible so I’d say that’s his prerogative. In the broader sense, no there’s not a way to lock eliminated teams from making moves until the playoffs begin. 
 

 

Also, not sure if you noticed, but they worked in your recommendation to allow filtering on the transactions history page to view whichever division you desire. Pretty nice add and thanks for throwing it out there.

I honestly haven’t been overly thrilled with Rodger’s production as he’s been super inconsistent compared to Mayfield who is starting to heat up and the defenses he plays coming up are a little softer than the teams the Packers play. As for Tannehill, he’s been very consistent compared to the numbers that Rodgers has been putting up.

Not thrilled with the transaction but with my D on bye and trying to make a playoff push, I couldn’t really afford to drop anyone else on my roster. Just wait, when I come out of this league on top, I’ll be the one laughing!!!

Looks like my team is finally coming together, just in time for the playoffs

If it makes you feel better I’m not making the playoffs so I picked up Rodgers to screw the guys that did.

A lot of playoff spots and playoff bye weeks are going to be decided a certain way because people didn't set their lineups. Pretty disappointing gents.

@Shankster Strikes Back, good luck in the playoffs, but just know, the rebels always win, even when the empire is heavily favored.

Congrats to everyone on a great regular season! Division winners and recipients of a first round bye(top 2 per division) are: 

 @Bucky CC in Berg division followed up by @Hackster.

@00sportsman in Shooter division followed up by @mudfish. (clipped me by one stinking game)

@russtopherb in Stud division followed up @bardle. 

Great job on the first round bye guys!

 

Now, on to the playoffs! The top 6 teams in each division make the playoffs. As previously mentioned, the top 2 seeds in each receive a first round bye. Single elimination is the name of the game so win at all costs!

Below is the playoff bracket. Best of luck to those that made it! Go get that Golden Ticket!

Also, although I love him like a brother, thank god @blackngold_blood won't be going for the MGS three-peat of fantasy leagues, that would have been an abject disaster.

Match up of the OG's this week if memory serves @BK in TEXAS! Fairly certain you and I are one of the few left from the original MGS FFB league.

I wish your lineup much luck. May you score many points, as long as it's one less than me!
