Lion conference knows which teams will play in the post-season. What we don't know is who will play whom.

Unless the have changed, it appears the Woodys have locked up the number one seed. As long as the Dessert Carts win against the Bloody Mess in Week 16 they'll hold the two spot. If not, they could drop all the way to the five spot, depending on the outcome of the Jellystoners vs. the Woodys, while the Mess rises to four.

If the Woodys and Carts both win and the Most Favored and Blessed Ashanti Empire of Ghana does its job against Da Booty, the top three stay the same, Ghana moves up to four on strength of tiebreakers, the Mess goes to five and the Jellystoners to to six. If the Woodys lose and the Carts win, the Jellystoners go to four, the Most Favored go to five, and the Mess go to six.

The seven and eight spots will be decided in a head-to-head matchup between the Rabids and Bad Doggies next week.

Over in the Elephant Conference, there's still a question as to who gets the eight spot and who gets the top spot. A win by the Bungles over the Big Chickens would put them in the top spot by virtue of the head-to-head tiebreaker. I won't pretend to know who wins the scrum at 2 if the Chickens win. Five and Six are set with the Tarbabies and the Train to Nowhere. What happens between the 1337z, the Skinnies and the Icarus Worriers is beyond me and it's too late for me to take time researching the outcomes of three teams I have nearly no chance of playing in the playoffs.

In any event, I'm loving the fact that here comes the final regular-season and there's still no firm matchup in either conference for the first week of the playoffs.

The Lumberjacks are truly torn on what to do.

We are the #1 seed no matter what.... the guys we hate (in a loving way) the most is DDH. We have two options.

1. If we loose we might contribute to denying DDH a home game... we like their players without equipment (they are good enough)

The bad side of all of that is if DDH is the 4th or 5th seed then we have a good chance of seeing them in the 2nd round....
***History lesson: DDH has beaten the Jacks in the first round of the playoffs 2 seasons in a row

2. If we win.... So DDH can be the #2 or 3 seed means they have to get to round 3 (and the most blessed Jacks have to win their games too)

So...... do we throw the game or do we have the rangers kick our ass like they are likely to do anyway?

Can we call this the "Avoid the Jacks Cup"?

Granted the Ratels especially gave us a tough game

Thank you!
To be honest the only thing we have to play for is having the longest active winning streak going into the playoffs, cuz to avoid the Jacks is to get the Hawks. So either way we will need our best game and hope for either of yours worse game to have a chance. This has been a very competitive season where any team can pull an upset! Congrats to the top 8, and best of luck to you all!

The train to nowhere was a good one IMO..

I think we have more tricks up our sleves. Hopefully we can pull another fast one over one of the top teams and sneak into the big game.

Awesome season, although I want to slam my head into the wall for some of our losses. At least I didn't kill any mangoes... yet.

I blame my kicker for ruining any real chance of hosting a playoff game. who would have thought that a shanked 21 yard FG could mean so much in the grand scheme of things

btwmastawoo - there's a crate of mangoes at your door wrapped up in C4 ready and waiting for our rematch
