It's time for the Yak n Yankees to step it up

[ClearScreen]

OK, almost 3/4 of the season is in the books and here is how the league looks:

Mickey _______________________W-L-T______Pct.____GB
Splash Mountaineers_____________92-49-9_____.643_____ -
The Hittin' Mickeys ______________83-56-11____.590_____ 8
Goofy Hustle___________________ 65-73-12_____.473 ____25.5
Tiger Town Tiggers______________54-89-7______.383_____39
Tronorails _____________________45-95-10_____.333 ____46.5


Goofy ________________________W-L-T______Pct.____GB
PhineastoEzratoGus______________95-43-12 ___.673 ____-
The Incredibles__________________77-62-11____.550 ___18.5
The Yak 'n' Yankees______________73-69-8_____.513____24
The Sorcerer's Bat______________ 66-76-8______.467 ___31
Winnie The Pujols_______________ 48-90-12____ .360 ____47


Donald _________________________W-L-T______Pct.____GB
Baloo's Cubs ____________________82-57-11 ___.583_____-
JUNGLE (Nelson) CRUZ ____________73-69-8 ____.513 ____10.5
Goofy Gray Sox __________________64-73-13 ___.470 ____17
Epic Phillie ______________________62-78-10 ____.447____20.5

The three division winners after Week 20 make the playoffs as do 3 Wildcards.

The Mickey Division has become a 2-team race between these two bitter rivals with the Splash Mountaineers increasing their lead by virtue of an undefeated Week 15. The Hittin' Mickeys look to knock them from their Laughing Place as these two teams should both be playoff bound. Also, Goofy Hustle is one good week away from being in a playoff position although their manager was just banned from Fantasy Baseball for betting that his son Max would get drafted this year. Late Breaking News: Goofy still has no idea who Max's Mom is.

The Goofy Division has become PhineastoEzratoGus' to lose with such commanding lead that Candace would not even begin trying to catch them. The Incredibles are still in good shape holding on to that second wildcard spot so they won't be forced to go into the superhero protection program. The Yak 'n Yankees are in a flat-footed tie with Jungle (NELSON) Cruz who have the edge over them by virtue of some obscure Wildcard tiebreaker involving Nepalese Sherpas being taller than the cannibals on the Jungle Cruise. The Sorcerer's Bat is also within striking distance of the last wildcard. We'll see if they can find some magic in their bat. Anyway, will a Yak Attack be forthcoming or will Jungle (NELSON) Cruz keep their hot streak going? Who the Beverly knows?

The Donald Division is still the tightest division, but Baloo's Cubs have opened up a nice lead at this point. The other teams are still in the hunt with Jungle (NELSON) Cruz making their move, albeit rather slowly along a scripted, pre-determined track filled with lots of corny jokes. A couple of good weeks from the Goofy Gray Sox or Epic Phillie could put them right in the wildcard race. A couple of bad weeks will have them longing for Fantasy Football.

Good luck to all,

Nice update Nemesis!

I'm glad (and plesasantly surprised) to see my Mountaineers coming out of the All-Star break so strong, given that my two best offensive players were out with injuries last week.

I know Fantasy Football is starting, but it is Fantasy Baseball Playoff time!

Here are the playoff brackets:

Quarterfinal

(1) PhineastoEzratoGus - Bye

Quarterfinal

(4) Baloo's Cubs

(5) The Incredibles


Quarterfinal

(3) The Hittin' Mickeys

(6) JUNGLE (Nelson) CRUZ


Quarterfinal

(2) Splash Mountaineers - Bye

JUNGLE (Nelson) CRUZ had a great least week to leapfrog over the Yak 'n Yankees for the final playoff spot. They face the Hittin' Mickeys who battled the Splash Mountaineers all year long for the Mickey Division crown. The Mountaineers held on and beat their nemesis by two games to capture the division and earn the first round bye.

The overall top seed, PhineastoEzratoGus, won the Goofy Division by a whopping 21 games over The Incredibles and get the other first round bye. The Incredibles will meet the winner of the Donald Division, Baloo's Cubs, in the other first round playoff matchup.

It was a great and exciting regular season and let's hope for the same in the playoffs!! Good luck to all!

Woo Hoo! My closed-door team meeting seemed to have lit a spark for my team to make a push for the playoffs. I hope they can pull off a 2010 SF Giants-like run in the playoffs.

Congratulations to JUNGLE(Nelson) Cruz for their see saw victory and upset of The Hittin' Mickeys. Clearly, the tribe of headhunters they picked up on waivers made all the difference. They will now face the 2nd-seeded Splash Mountaineers in the Nemesis side of the playoff bracket.

Also congratulations to The Incredibles for their hard fought victory over Baloo's Cubs. Troy Tulowitzki was truly Mr. Incredible for him last week - Dan Haren was pretty great also. He now faces the number one seed in PhineastoEzratoGus whose team name is the most difficult to type of any team I have ever typed.

Good luck to all!

My explanation for my win this week: even a blind mouse finds some cheese once in a while.

Enjoy it while it lasts Tex - you're going DOWN this week!

Oh, I expect to. So if I somehow manage to win, that's just makes it that much sweeter!

Congratulations to The Incredibles and the Splash Mountaineers for making it to this week's Champinship game.

The 5th-seeded Incredibles beat the top seed, PhineastoEzratoGus, by virtue of an 8-0 whitewash, although the scores were very close within each scoring category. I guess Mr. Incredible stole the "Shutout-inator" and put it to good use.

They will face the 2nd-seeded Splash Mountaineers who squeaked by a very determined Jungle (Nelson) Cruz and his team of headhunters by the score of 6-4.

Will the Splash Mountaineers reach their Laughing Place?
Will The Incredibles unleash a Jack-Jack attack and take the title?

Either way, it should be a good one. Best of luck to both teams this week.

You were right! AT least it was close and not a shutout (like some other playoff game.)

We have a winner!!!

Congratulations to AJ and his Splash Mountaineers for winning the first DIS Dad's Fantasy Baseball Championship!!

It was a seesaw championship with AJ's team coming out ahead in the last day or two. Also, congrats to The Incredibles for their amazing playoff run knocking off a higher seed in every round until the championship.

Great season to all and look forward to doing it again next year.

Figured it is about time to bring this old thread back to life. Spring Training has started and the season will be here soon.
