DFL 2017 Week 15: Here comes the playoffs

Well, they playoffs are upon us and they are just kicking everyone in the nuts aren't they?


Ok, so technically, it's only kicking HALF of the people's nuts who played this week, and really that's only like two thirds of the league overall....  YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT!!  DON'T CONFUSE ME WITH YOUR MATH LEARNING!


Before the games, let's take a peek at the Pick'ems.  FFS, those even kicked people in the nuts.  The people in particular being Ben, Crutch, and myself, who all went 2-2. Which means that... we might have all of just not picked. 


On the plus side, Crutch does get a "YOU'RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR!" award for not getting any votes, but still getting the win.  Congrats, you salty bastard!

Man, I've missed these...

Phil vs. Ben.  Motherfucker.  I was slated to win. I went into Sunday up THIRTY DAMN POINTS!!  And I could have won it all, should I have gone another way.  (I hemmed and hawed over putting Olsen in, but decided against it, which cost me the game.)  But really, this does kind of sum up my season.  Plus, I Ben'ed it this week, AGAINST Ben, which is frustrating. 


Well done, Ben. Enjoy your extra time in the playoffs, you jerk face.

Josh vs. Kerry.  Ugh... well, if this doesn't hurt, I don't know what does.Josh laid down the beat down of the week.  He was projected to do so, but the way that it went down was nothing less than spectacular.  In one of Josh's more restrained scoring outing, he scored the third highest points of the week, with no huge superstars to speak of.  Kerry, ont eh other hand just imploded like I've not seen before.  Wilson shit the bed (against the RAMS? Really?) Jackson, Henry, and Fournette were hurt early in the games,   And, again, the Seattle D was pummeled by the freaking Rams. 


Heck of a way to end your rookie season, Kerry.  Sorry to see it go down like that....

Crutch vs. Patrick.  Crutch went into this game as a 4 point underdog.  Yet somehow, he pulled out a win with 5 points to spare.  Both teams played well, it's just that Crutch somehow played a little better than Patrick.  The real kicker for Patrick is that his ace in the hole is Elliott who is coming back NEXT week.  Just in time for it not to matter..  Well done pulling the upset, Crutch.  Good luck.  You sure as hell are going to need it moving forward.


D vs Kyle.  Another upset!  This game was actually projected within a point, but id didn't quite get there.  Each team had their QB and a Flex player post decent numbers.  But D was able to take this one to the bank with his superior TE.  (Yay, Ertz!)  Everyone else on the field was just kinda ho-hum.  Crongrats to D for advancing to the  next round.  ( I do believe that this might be the farthest that he has ever gotten.  I don't want to jinx it, but congratulations, good sir!


So, that means that in the semi-final round, we have
Ben vs. D
Josh vs Crutch

And in the consolation bracket:
Phil vs. Kyle
Patrick vs. Kerry

Good luck, guys!  Only two games left!
