    My underachieving 5-8 team snagged the final (6th) playoff spot in week 13 and rolled to a convincing first round playoff win against the 9-4 team in week 14. Next up is the 10-3 team. I love this game!

      More like: Your shitty team squeaked into the playoffs which in and of itself is dumb because 6 out of 10 teams make the playoffs, thereby greatly reducing the importance of 13 weeks of playing. And then a lucky week got you a win. This game is pretty damn dumb.

        Especially when 60% of teams get into the playoffs. Why not 4 teams?

          Bob- I'm not exactly sure it would ROCK as you say it Byron.. it may be cool, by typical text book descriptions. Your opinion of this is shallow and poorly constructed, but allow me to re-craft your initial thought into something tangable.

            Exactly. 10 team league should only have 4 teams in the playoffs and end in week 14. That is how I have Liz Hurley set up with 10 teams. Now leagues with 12 and 14 should have 6 teams in the playoffs.

              I started a 10 team league this year. 4 teams make the playoffs (Week 15 & Week 16). To me, 6 playoff teams in a 10 team league is too many.
              14 Team 1/2PPR league (1 Keeper)

              QB: Rivers (3), Stafford (5), Keenum (NA)
              RB: Kamara (11), McKinnon (7), Bernard (7)
              WR: M. Thomas (NA), Crabtree (1), Shepard (8), Wallace (NA), Cobb (NA)
              TE: Olsen (NA)
              K: Lutz (7)
              DEF: JAX (7)

              (We start 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WRs, 1 RB/WR/TE, 1 TE, 1 K and 1 DEF)

                err. Didn't finish my thought correctly. The regular season should end in week 14 I meant.

                  It used to be a 12 team league. But 2 teams quit and the commish just left it at 6 teams making the playoffs.

                    You better not lose to the 5-8 team.

                      12 teams? Maybe 10 years ago.

                          Whenever. But the number of teams making the playoffs never changed when the number of teams in the league decreased.

                            To the 7-6 team? I'm looking forward to a rematch against your team. You barely squeaked past me during our regular season matchup.

                              Hahaha. That was the highest weekly point total that your team had in the regular season, and I still crushed you!
