Week 21: Team Weinstein Clinches, Chelsea's Dagger Closes In on History
As we enter the final week of the regular season, 6 playoff spots are still up for grabs!
Week 21 Recap
As we enter the final week of regular season action, Team Weinstein is the only other team to officially clinch a spot in the playoffs. Mark had yet another incredible year and is poised to win his 5th Gordon Bombay trophy and 3rd straight for finishing the regular season with the most points.
Mark will need to get through his father first, however, as #1 vs #2 are set to do battle in the final week. Can Mr. Dub deny his own son of the Gordon Bombay or will Mark take care of business?
The best storyline of the season continues to get better! Chelsea’s Dagger has defeated my Blitzkrieg in convincing fashion to make it 7 wins in a row and 10 wins in his last 12. This has been a generational run for the Michigan man and will likely set up a playoff birth for the first time in his 12 seasons! Is Chelsea’s Dagger the team of destiny?
On the flip side, my Blitzkrieg have now lost 2 in a row and are trending in the wrong direction at the wrong time. A 3rd straight loss could be devastating for your commish. That matchup is against none other than my own pops, Lou’s Still Clueless. Currently in 9th, Eric must win in order to have a chance at the playoffs. The drama!
Jordan also continues to rack up the wins as he takes home his 4th in a row! Philly’s Elite seems to always get the job done when it matters most and may be a dark horse come playoff time. That said, with less points than 4 of the teams behind him, Jordan will need to win again this week in order to stay out of 8th place and face Mr. Dub in round 1. The caveat? He goes head to head with the hottest team in the league, Chelsea’s Dagger.
The odds are stacked against Kendall, who is currently 11-10 on the year and will need an absolute miracle to get in to the playoffs. After starting the year 6-0, it has been a fall from grace for the California King. He has 1 less win than everyone else still in contention and will need to have the most dominant win (with other results going his way) in the history of the league to make it. He faces Katelyn’s Unleash the Fury, another team fighting for survival. Yikes.
Snow Cones is having one of the worst runs in team history after dropping his 4th straight to Mr. Dub. Fortunately, the Swiss King has built himself a buffer and is heavily favored against The Bad Brew this week. Lexie’s Legit is also fighting for survival after losing to Team Weinstein last week. That said, she should take care of business this week against the worst team in league history, the Washington Hockey Team.
There are far too many clinching scenarios to get through without driving myself insane so I am not going to do that. What I do know is this week is going to be
