Game 1
Sleepy Squad 171.50 Finkle & Einhorn 170.54
I did say that Sleepy Squad would win this game. But because it was so close I feel like my models got it wrong. I watched the Packers beat the Saints all the way to the very end knowing that F&E had the Packers defense in his lineup. The game pretty much ended with that defense on the field. Just think, one sack, or one interception, or a fumble recovery and F&E is off to the championship game instead of Sleepy Squad. For Brandon, I think Christmas came early.
Game 2
Big Daddy 195.50 Offsides Mother F*****! 186.32
Models had this one wrong. But it was pretty close to going OMF!’s way. There was personnel on the roster that could have changed the outcome. Even still, OMF! left it all out on the field. Biggie D made it difficult to get around them firing on all cylinders from all positions. He’s off to the championship game. OFM! is joining the rest of us either wrapping presents, or in the kitchen prepping that beef tenderloin for a festive dinner.
You can try tonight
Or turn around and it’s all over
You can make it right
Or make it nothing after all
Do you realize
That all the dreams you had are heroes
Right before your eyes
Now you watch the great ones fall
2024 View Askew Championship Title Game
Jay Division’s Big Daddy and Silent Bob’s Division Sleepy Squad
I have to be brief here as I have don’t have much time.
Big Daddy comes into this game as the Jay Division winner with an 8-6 record. Add two playoff wins, and they’re 10-6. Sleepy Squad won the Silent Bob division with a 10-4 record, add the two playoff wins, and they are 12-4. The Sleepies were also in the running for the most points title only falling short in the final week of the regular season.
The last three games the two teams are about 5 pts apart in average pts scored with the slight edge to the Sleepies. The season average favors the Sleepies. The L3A & the L5A metrics both favor the Sleepies. Yahoo favors Biggie D. My models favor Biggie D. I think this game comes down to match ups. I think those match up favors Biggie D. There is an injury question that Big Daddy needs to answer before Wednesday by 4:30p. I also have to wonder if Johnny Taylor will come anywhere near his career scoring day he had last week. I have my doubts but our new champion will win by a score of 161.00 to 156.39. Big Daddy will hold win and hold the 10th pick in the draft next year. Maybe.
Hard die the heroes . . .
Heroes die hard.
Sometime next week I’ll confirm the draft order with Sean P and post it here for our knowledge. Once the NFL season ends, I will finalize the category player list and post it to these pages as well. I will let you know when that is completed. Usually by the second weekend of the NFL playoffs that task is completed.
Merry Christmas…….Gotta run……..Peace out for now!
