What a kick in the cajones to have a great season then have every single position on your roster underperform in the first round of the playoffs. 

Same thing happened to Walnutz. Fantasy Football is bipolar.

Derrick Henry has destroyed many a team in the fantasy playoffs the last 2 years....

And he's sitting on my team, out of the playoffs.  Submitted a lineup for S&G's and got 41 from Derrick Henry and 148 with a DEF still to play, as opposed to 15 from him and 72 from the team last week...ya know, the week I need to win to get in.

Sigh...

Keep you eyes peeled, but we're still a bit of a ways from announcing anything. We've got kinks to work out from last season. We weren't even going to discuss stuff until after more of us commissioners were out of FF anyway so we can at least start the process a bit.

Not many teams could have handled my team this week, even with all the points I left on my bench....which of course means my team will lay a dud next week. Awesome season though!

Congrats to all that are moving on. This was a tight week with some super slim margins of victory. Here's your current playoff bracket:

 

The difficulty ramps up significantly this week as only one team from each pool will move on as their respective division champion. Good luck everyone! (but especially Stud division).

Whichever comish renewed the fantasy golf... I love you man. 
 

cannot wait to take Kevin Na in round 1.

Guess it's my turn to get trucked by Derrick Henry.... not sure if I should be happy about winning.

A 4-way battle in each division a week after basically my whole team showed up!?

Hopefully my core players don't decide to regress to the mean this week!

@B.Boston Don't worry. I think my team shot it's load last week. 

[Berg Ryman 5,961]

Not a good year to be a three seed, shows you how important the byes were.

[ZJBogey2 263]

Well if it's going to be a 4 team battle royal at least I'm entering with King Henry...can Brady find some of that future HoF magic to give my team another boost? Hopefully I figure out the right RBs to play and not leave 70 points on the bench when it matters most.

Been a great season whatever happens but not loving my matchups too much. Good luck Studs!

I need Gibson back a TE to actually put up more then 2 points and Murray to come back to form... and Lockett to come out of the shadow of DK. Too much to ask for? I knew it was a 4 way playin, but also forgot it was a 4 way playin and really think its a true toss up in the Bucky Division. Many good teams and anyone would be a good rep for the superbowl. If Gibson is out I may have to find the sleeper of all sleepers!

Before we get into the big finish of the season a big thanks to all the commissioners for their efforts and work throughout the season. Another new platform with I am sure a lot of challenges in the background. Also to all those who made a effort this season thank you. This is a huge league and just awesome to take part in. I know not everyone loved the MFL site and I will say their app is less then ideal, however the site was okay. If we go back to fantrax that will be fine with me as well. Both have there good and bad points, but I may give a bit of a edge to MFL as it does offer a ton in terms of background info. Yes it takes some searching and about 10 tabs open, BUT it can help a lot of the newer ppl evaluate trades and so on. Either way I will be very happy to take part again next season!

Things that were great this season for me were the following
Format- Loved the two games each week and made every week that much for fun and having 2 games really made it feel like bad starts didn't mean nearly as much. I am bias in that I had a great so to this point with only one week where I went 0-2 and that was week 13 where I had my spot locked up. 

Rolling with the punches- This was and likely will be the most unique and difficult season ever in fantasy with games scheduled for every night of the week, massive key injuries and much more. It was great to see people handle the ups and downs and great job from the commissioners to make sure we got fair results throughout the season despite these hurdles. 

Playoffs!- I want to say this before any more results come in. I love the way this is working. Big bonus to those who got top 2 seeds and fair play in games for seeds 3-6 with basically two of the biggest weeks possible now to win. Having to beat out 6 teams in two weeks is fantastic and will really show how good of a squad you've managed to build throughout.

There is a lot more, but I'll leave it at that. Thank you again to everyone and MGS crew for organizing and putting this on. Its truly awesome and I miss it dearly when its all over!

Holy smokes. I just now looked at week 15. We play against all 3 people in our Division? Then there will be 4 people left to battle out for a single golden ticket? (I know, proverbial counting the chickens and eggs... yada yada)

So can someone explain how this works? Does it come down to your 3 game record for that week, with a points scored tie breaker if necessary?

I think the easiest way to explain the next two weeks is this:
