Inter Galactic Couch Potato Football League Update!

I know you were all dying to find out how this turned out...

It's been a long season, and it's not over yet. One more weekend of games and then the playoofs begin. On tap this weekend really only one game matters. The Zanzibarbarians against the Kansas Trailblazers.

Everybody above us, the Tygornian Alliance, the Remorhaz Roughriders, and the Kodiak Express, have cliched a playoff spot. Everybody below us is just playing for respect. But for Zanzibar and Kansas the playoffs start a week early. Win and you are in, lose and you are out.

By all rights my Zanibarbarians should be eliminated already due to this 4 game funk my team is currently riding. A month ago I was 7 and 2 and vying for first place in the league. But a couple of key injuries and now my team is just fighting for survival.

But the tie Last week between Kansas and gridironguru has allowed me to retain control over my own destiny. If Kansas had scored one more point Last week I would be facing an impossible task of needing to beat Kansas by several hundred points to make the playoffs. If Gridironguru had scored one more point I would have the edge on Kansas, but would need a win against Kansas and to outscore Gridironguru in their game, or hope they lost. But all that is past now, all I can do is look to this week and try to get a team of players that are actually going to show up and play.

This is why I love fantasy football.
