First of all, I'd like to take a moment and just thank you all for being such awesome, active participants in this league. I think this is the most fun I've had during any regular season in any league I've been in, and it's in large part to this great group of competitors. Everyone is active on the waiver wire, diligent about setting lineups, and we're even starting to get a bunch of trades going! This is a great league, and I'm so glad that we've got such a solid group together. Kudos everybody. Also, I'd like to just focus on our four non-playoff teams. Guys, it would have been so easy for each of you to mail it in after you were eliminated from the playoffs several weeks ago, but each and every one of you has kept grabbing free agents, tinkering with your lineups, and trying to win every week. That's awesome, and it really makes the league more fun and balanced. Nobody gets easy wins in Just, Win Maybe. You guys make sure of that. So thanks again, and good luck to all of you with your jersey competition! Lastly I'd like to address our playoffs. As is the new rule, the highest active seed in the playoffs gets the privilege of choosing their opponent. In the first round, that #3 seed happens to be TDfW. I can choose from PMotr, GMMBP, and 302. In the next round, the mullynation will be our highest seed, and she'll pick her opponent. I'm excited to see how this goes, as I think it will make our playoffs more fun, intense, and memorable. Similarly, I've decided to do a high-seed reward for the consolation bracket. This is for the #7 seed only. The #7 seed will get the opportunity to choose which week they will face their three opponents. That may not be much of an advantage; I'm really not sure. But anyway, Hayden, you have two days to text me with your decisions, otherwise you'll forfeit that option. Finally, the moment you've all been waiting for...my opponent choice: For this week of the playoffs, I'm calling out PMotr! Come and get some, Dan. Also, I've compiled similar data to our previous halfway point review. It's included below: This is a cluster of three tables of raw data. First table you've already seen. It's point totals for the first 7 weeks. Second table includes weeks 8-13. The third table is the yearly total. These are the percentages by team for weeks 8-13. These are the league scoring patterns for weeks 8-13. Similar pie graphs, but for the year totals. Similar bar graphs, but for the year totals. This is an illustration of the last four weeks of scoring. It's intended to show how teams are performing immediately prior to the playoffs. Check that blue line, people. Three-peat incoming!

He has written several moderately-successful self-help books, the most famous of which is "What Do You Mean You Can Smell My BO?" Gustav Travers of the New York Times praised the book as "A vulnerable, courageous look into the mind of a man who has literally no sense that other people exist. And also no sense of smell. Nope, he definitely doesn't have that either. Just musk, like a hog that's gotten into the cabbage." Archives
