Season 3: Does this even count, the league had a different name? Only the Con Men and DRZ were in that league, so lets not count it. Besides I don't know who screwed themselves that season.

Season 4: One conference had the Cleveland Steamers, Santa fe sugar dwarves, the Orlando Warriors and DRZ. DRZ needed to "win out" their last three games to make the playoffs as DRZ was 7-3 and the steamers were 8-2. That meant beating the steamers, whom they had lost to earlier in the season. So, the final three games were:
DRZ v Santa Fe: DRZ beat them 56-0 in their first meeting (gimmie)
DRZ v Orlando: DRZ beat them 52-0 in their first meeting (gimmie)
DRZ v ClevelandL DRZ lost to them 7-10 (definitely doable)
WHAT HAPPENED: DRZ lost to Santa fe 14-28. Hopes crushed 3 games from the playoffs. Then they beat the steamers in a rematch and also beat orlando...but it made no difference then!

Season 5: The three way tie DRZ, Philly, DC Corrupt
All DC needed to do to win the conference was win their final match against the Utah Saints, whom they beat 42-27 in their first meeting. They screwed themselves when they lost to Utah 49-52. That made the three way tie and DRZ got in by criteria.

Season 6: The three way tie strikes back: Cobra-Gate (a foretelling)
This is how the story will go. A wasted and dilapidated Philly, who would lose three in a row to get to 9-4. Their loss to Alliance (a team they beat 17-3 in their first meeting) would relinquish their playoff spot to DRZ. It would appear that Philly had "snatched defeat from the jaws of victory." However, Compton would end up throwing the final game against the Cobras to re-create a 3 way tie situation where DRZ would screw themselves out of a playoff spot. NOTE: If Compton does that then they will relinquish their third seed. Stay Classy Compton.

It wouldn't be a 3 way tie again if Compton lost their game unless DRZ loses as well. DRZ would be 11-3 and Compton would be 10-4 which would make it a two way tie between Compton and Philly. Compton would still make the playoffs with the head to head tie breaker but they would be the #4 seed instead of #3.


This will be the playoff picture unless DC somehow loses today...

#1 Drinkin vs #4 Compton
#2 DC vs #3 DRZ

If DC were to lose to Orlando today, there would be a 3 way tie for 2nd. This would be the playoff picture if DC lost...

#1 Drinkin vs #4 DC
#2 Compton vs #3 DRZ

you're right, Stixx. While I was doing this I thought I had a great realization (I was going through so many season records I thought DRZ had 4 losses).

Wouldn't DRZ be seeded ahead of Compton because DRZ beat them head to head and they are only TWO teams with the same record in the playoff picture?

Ah, yes, I forgot that DRZ beat Compton in the regular season. So, DRZ will be the #3 seed playing DC and Compton will be #4 playing Drinkin if both teams win and DC wins as well.

Good job in keying off the inside rush, we started to get rolling in the 2nd half but just wasnt enough. Those damn 2 sacks at the end pissed me off, but it happens.

yea dreg has a nasty habit of stopping the run. Though I was scared when we coughed up that fumble on our side of the field.

I'm still very proud of myself putting in the wrong playbook in our last game against the Cobras to throw away our playoff spot! Looks like another championship for DRZ unless Compton can find some consistency on defense.
