In week 12 action:
- Kramerica continued their late season playoff push with a 20-point over division-leading SaaBB. This is Kramerica’s first win ever over SaaBB in 6 attempts.
- Hedfullalicker defeated CSPJ to place both teams squarely in the thick of the race for the final wild card spot(s). Hed leads the all-time series, 6-3 and has now beaten CSPJ 4 straight times.
- Camel Toe picked up a big win, dropping DDT by 35. These two split their season series.
- The Jedi Masters defeated Double D in the game of the week. A single TD by Willie Parker would’ve turned this game around for Double D. As it turns out though, TJM locked up the West Division with the win. Double D, on the other hand, has sewn up the #4 playoff seed as the top wild card. TJM swept the season series and is 6-2 against DD in their career matchups.
- Post Mortem earned a season sweep of Tappa Kegga Day with an 18-point win. PM has won four straight over TKD and leads the career series, 7-3.
- SIAP took a big step toward winning the Central Division crown with a win over Winning Beer Money. The two teams split their season series, and WBM leads the series all-time, 9-5, but SIAP now has a game lead in the division.
- In the most meaningless game of the week, The Hip improved to 4-8 with a win over 2-10 Turd Ferguson. The win ended a 3-game series win streak for Turd, who still leads the matchup all-time, 7-4.
Records and Milestones – Jedi Masters edition
- The Jedi Masters’ 11 wins are now tied for the 3rd most in a single season in PFFL history. Only two teams have won 12 — TKD and Post Mortem in 1997.
- The Jedi’s 10-game winning streak is the 2nd longest in PFFL history. Only TKD had a longer run of success, winning 11 straight from weeks 2-12 in 1997.
- The Jedi Masters won their 5th division title. No other team in PFFL history has won more than 3, and only two teams (DDT and TKD) have accomplished that feat. Note: SaaBB could nab their third and either WBM or SIAP will get a third this season.
Turd Ferguson’s remarkable run came to an end this week as they were the final team eliminated from PFFL Survivor. The Jedi Masters roll into the finals, scoring 105+. SaaBB scored 82.42 and Turd came in only 0.33 points behind. SaaBB and TJM will now square off in a two-week battle for $100 of Survivor cash, with the runner-up getting $40.
Division Races:
East: Either SaaBB or Kramerica will win this division. SaaBB can lock it up with a win over DDT this week. If SaaBB loses and Kramerica beats Camel Toe, this division race will come down to either whoever wins in week 14, or the total points race.
Central: Either SIAP or WBM will win this division. If WBM beats The Hip and SIAP loses to Turd this week, WBM will be in the driver’s seat. SIAP can lock it up by winning their last two games.
West: The Jedi Masters have the division (and #1 seed) sewn up. They have absolutely no motivation to defeat Post Mortem this week, so they should probably rest their best players.
Wild Card Race (remember, this is all completely unofficial):
- SIAP is in the playoffs, even if they fail to win the Central
- Because neither TKD or Hedfullalicker can overtake them in the West and they own head-to-head tiebreakers over both CSPJ and DDT, I’m 98% certain that Post Mortem is in the playoffs as well.
- Winning Beer Money looks to have the points advantage (in addition to some head-to-head tiebreakers) to have a postseason spot locked up as well
- SaaBB is also in. One of TKD or Hedfullalicker is going to lose next week, and SaaBB can’t finish lower than DDT or CSPJ in the East.
- That leaves two playoff spots available, with Kramerica (6-6) in the best position to claim one of them.
- Tappa Kegga Day and Hedfullalicker play each other in week 1. If TKD loses, they can kiss the postseason goodbye since they would be locked into 5th place in the West. If Hedfullalicker loses, they might still have a faint whisper of hope in week 14′s game against SaaBB.
- DDT holds the tiebreak advantage over CSPJ and Hedfullalicker, but loses out to TKD. DDT’s ideal scenario is a two wins + a Hed win over TKD.
- CSPJ is stuck behind DDT, so probably need 2 wins, a DDT loss, and a TKD win over Hedfullalicker this week (CSPJ vs TKD in week 14)
- The Hip is not mathematically eliminated, but has zero tiebreakers in their favor. They need a miracle.
- Camel Toe and Turd Ferguson are out, since it’s going to take at least 6 wins to play in week 15.
Season High Points
- The Jedi Masters look to be in complete control of the season high point race. Their 1330.04 point total is over 120 better than both Double D and WBM.
In recap babe news, Christina Aguilera is pregnant and like all hot chicks in Hollywood before her, chose this time to get naked for the camera.
