Bro...
The playoffs are here which can only mean one thing, it's time to debate tiebreakers and rule changes because some unlucky or under-qualified person missed the cut (cough, cough Cole Walters cough, cough). In all honesty, I thought the tiebreaker was how many points were scored by one's team over the span of the season and that there would be three teams from each division but, as it turns out, that was not the case for our beloved Bro League as Cole was ousted thanks to some meaningless inter-divisional record tiebreaker thingy (oh, so that's why we have divisions!?). When all is said and done, Scott's dad went 5-3 in his division and Walters finished 4-4 in his so, Alec and I are the lone survivors in the (Insert weekly gag) division. Mr. Aschebrook also scored more points than Cole or Silka so, it's fair to say he kind of earned it. At the end of the day, this just further proves that we need to get the league running sooner than the last week of the preseason so that we can discuss rule changes sooner and reach an agreement on how things like playoff seeding and how many playoff teams there should be before it is too late.

Note I received from Cole today. Nice penmanship, Walters.

Week 13 was not quite as excitement-packed as one would have thought but, one match-up did live up to the hype as Aschebrook Sr. led Scott 112-93 going into Monday Night's shitshow with Scott having Darren McFadden and Dez Bryant left in his lineup. McFadden made this comeback a bit too hard for Scott as his two lost fumbles ended up swinging this from being a 2-point win and giving us an Aschebrook-less postseason and instead, gave Scott's dad a 2-point win. When asked for comment, Scott said "We're on to Cincinnati", whatever that means. In the battle for 1st place in the league, Evan downright scolded Nick for starting Ryan Tannehill at QB with a 56-point win and a first-round bye for Moon. Silka beat Cole by 36 thus starting this whole 7-6 logjam of tiebreaker nonsense in which neither of these two ended up in the playoffs. Sneen will be charged with manslaughter later today after a 50-point killing of Alec who was far too young for such a fate and I beat a stack of hay trying to fit in by wearing sunglasses 127-88. The six bros in the hunt for a trophy (which is unnamed at the moment) are Moon, Andy, Nick, Sneen, Scott's dad and Alec with two of those last four dropping out this upcoming week. THINGS ARE JUST HEATING UP IN THE BRO LEAGUE, STAY TUNED FOR MORE NEXT WEEK...

Despite the obvious results in the Bro League, the excitement in the NFL this weekend was at a season-high as two games went to OT, a Hail Mary decided a game and nine games came down to one-score deficits. The Packers "Miracle in Motown" may have just saved their entire season and could be a turning point for them going forward if they just stop being idiotic and use the right Running Back (I've got your back, Silka). The Jags-Titans game was easily the best fantasy game of the weekend as both QBs were responsible for at least four touchdowns and... hey, look at that... Neither of them were in the league this week. Yep, that seems about right. Even though Moon didn't need Allen Robinson's 43-point explosion, he'll gladly take it as Robinson tries to crack the top-6 scoring at his position for year-end honors and accolades. The Seahawks are real and they're spectacular as they went off on Minnesota for a 38-7 win that continues this late-season push from Russell Wilson: Sudden Touchdown Machine. Lastly, the NFC East continues to be the "NFC Least" with Dallas winning over Washington and the Giants blowing a 10-point lead to Ryan Fitzpatrick. There is a faint glimmer of hope for this division though, with Philadelphia pulling off the biggest upset of the season with a 35-28 win over New England. Maybe, JUST MAYBE, this could be the start of Chip Kelly's plan falling into place and with less DeMarco Murray comes more wins for the 5-7 Eagles.

Week 14 features a Thursday Night game with playoff implications as the wildcard 8-4 Vikings face the 10-2 NFC West-leading Cardinals in a battle of the future versus the present. Make sure to set your lineups before Thursday if you own players like Carson Palmer, Larry Fitzgerald and/or Adrian Peterson. The NFL screwed up again by packing so much action into the noon games that again, we are stuck with just two lousy late-afternoon game featuring the Raiders' last gasp for air and "Dead Arm" Matt Cassel so, plan your holiday shopping at 3:30 PM CT Sunday. The Sunday-nighter might be decent as former-Patriot Brian Hoyer and the Texans' back-to-form defense take on the 10-2 Patriots, who have now lost two consecutive games. Lastly, the Monday Night game is Giants vs. Miami in a game that is sure to leave everyone asking "Does anybody actually want to win this game?"

NOTE: As I stated before, it is playoff time but, with playoff time comes some scoring confusion as two teams are on bye (something that has not been true at any point this season) and just to clarify... YES, all points scored by Moon's team or my own will still count toward individual players' season totals in the scoring leaderboard but of course, only if those players are in our starting lineups this week.
