    I just made a change that was supposed to increase my projected points but actually reduced them - #thatissounion. In any case, the projected points have not always worked well for me this season. Apparently, there is more to picking a team than finding the most projected points.

    You best believe @Amscray and @Handsome Pete won last round.

    Final Four matchups:
    Amscray's Bubba Sak Shrimp Co. vs. @celt1997's The Empty Buckets
    Pete's Pfeff & Ben vs. @drewuke's drewuke's team

    May the best teams (and mine) win!

    I had inside info that Flacco and Spiller were making shock Comebacks last week. Also he said Union are getting Pogba so I think I may stop listening to him

    Had to scramble to find some lineup replacements, so my fine regular season may be marred by having to run some backups out there.

    Here's to hoping Cleveland puts on a defensive clinic vs. Wilson. :D

    Nuh-uh. Better hope Money Manziel keeps him off the field!

    After losing last week, I and everyone else get to play this week. American football is very confusing.

    Your team is now in the fifth-place game. Everyone wants to know who will win fifth place! Its one of the top five most important places in a ten team league.

    Blech.

    If I had started (the ever inconsistent) Eli Manning I'd be locked into the win. Now I've got to rely solely on Stafford to go nuts tonight. Should be exciting, though, as I think the DET vs. NO game could be a shootout.

    I've been out of town, so rolled with whatever I set on Thursday.

    Good luck to you, sir. I'm firmly against Stafford in fantasy football so, naturally, he'll achieve Beast Mode this evening.

    Just as I predicted, Bubba Sak Shrimp Co. advances to the final without any trouble. Good luck @drewuke.

    The whole game came down to Ebron not being able to get that extra yard for the TD in the 4th Quarter, leaving Abdullah to run it in from the 1.

    Ebron gets across, that's an extra TD for Stafford and I win.

    Fantastic matchup! I love when things go down to the wire like that. Good luck in the finals.

    Odd thing to note: In this league I finished the regular season in 1st, and did not reach the finals. In my other league, I went 4-9, snuck into the playoffs in 8th (by tiebreaker rules), and won my semifinal match. Fantasy football is always crazy.

    WOW. I didn't watch the game, had no idea about Ebron. Its happened to me as well... several years back I lost a final because Peyton Manning decided to run out the clock by sliding down at the five-yard line rather than finish his bootleg scramble for the TD!

    That's the beauty of the playoffs, right?

    I'm riding Stafford into the final of my family league.

    My two other leagues? Second to last. Although one is a crazy dynasty league where I have co-ownership with my friend.

    This is going to be a great final. Combined we are on a 13 game winning streak and we respectively scored 127 and 126 last week.

    May the best team win, this will be a good one!

    So, how did the season end? I can't tell from the app. It would be nice if they had a playoff bracket display. Why did it end in week 16 rather than 17? Interesting.

    Seasons generally only run 16 weeks because so many teams rest starters the final week before playoffs.
