Week 13, or Sowing the Playoff Seeds

 It looked, going into Week 13, that HRG had a very legitimate shot at a playoff spot. His point totals were there, he was coming off a huge week with Tyreek and Derrick Henry going bonkers...

And then he GroupMe'd everyone requesting no Notes this week.

Which, of course, meant, he put up a score (70) that Tyreek and Henry beat the previous week (91.5).

It's a score that you could have COMBINED with I-Ry's (65) and STILL not beaten his opponent.

Let it not have been said that Boobies (heh) failed to step up. He has secured his first EVER playoff berth.

Who didn't step up last week? Well that was I-Ry. His loss and 65 points put him in a position where he could miss the playoffs! Lucky for him he's facing the hapless (and I mean HAPLESS) Effect this week.

Our top 3 teams are in, and are just playing for seed. Provost is the #1 seed. RTTM and Boobies (heh) have equal records, and if they come out of this week with equal records (either both winning or both losing) the points will make the difference; RTTM currently holds a 16 point edge. If one wins and the other loses, the winner will take the #2 seed.

The 4th spot is still up for grabs. I-Ry is in the best spot; beat the Effect and he's in. But...

DVD still has an outside change. He needs:

1.  a win over HRG
2. an I-Ry loss AND 
3. to maintain his 9.5 point lead over I-Ry

So it's possible. Just seems...

Everyone else is just playing for seeding in the Loser Bowl. The Effect has locked up the "top" seed there, and is the odds on favorite to end up as The Worst. It seems everyone else is trending up, and he's....not. Trust me....he stinks.

For real. Bad. 

I'll offer previews for the playoff and non-playoffs next week. For just enjoy the last week of the regular season. It only means anything for, like, two people.
