Let’s say you are in a tough division, you play six of your games against those teams, so 9-7 might actually be a pretty good record, considering.

As opposed to being in a cupcake division, where you go 6-0 in Division games, which should get you at least 10 or 11 wins.

Here are statistical evaluations of the teams' scores against each other, mutual opponents and opponents of opponents this season.

I don't bet, but I spent six years following Crazy Uncle Joe's advice, "learning to code".

is this an outcome of whomever counts the votes wins, or shall we overlook any appearance of impropriety because that tom baby impression was spot on... well done impy...

does this mean it is over or do the play off picks take effect on the overall winner...

do i have a chance?

or is it over?

Once again I will have to break my boycott because I have a relative playing in one of these games.

I'm under the impression that the playoffs are a whole new ballgame. But I might be wrong about that. I can run the numbers from a "fresh start" or as an accumulation on the previous total, doesn't matter to me.

is this an outcome of whomever counts the votes wins, or shall we overlook any appearance of impropriety because that tom baby impression was spot on.

If you ever see anything incorrect on my end let me know because I don't do impressions...not well, at least.

do i have a chance?

Don't pick Houston and Tennessee.

or is it over?

DO pick Houston and Tennessee.

I don't know. I'll see what Impy wants me to do. I could even do both...it's just a bit of Excel cut-and-pasting.

Who was making the spreadsheet, week by week?

Did that get produced for Week 17?

That was truly fantastic, and I'd like to get the final one, if it's available.

Oh, man. I don’t know where I picked mine up at. I left the 22nd to drive up to MD for a week. Been so sick, I’m still here. It hit me in the throat first - I could barely talk by the time we went to Christmas Eve service. Then it got into my sinuses, chest, and eventually my gut. I spent several days in bed, sleeping. I’m debating whether I feel good enough to make the 760 mile drive back tomorrow. I mean, my wife’s glad I’m out of her hair for a while LOL, but I gotta go home sometime, and I kinda miss the cats. LOL
