Today's commentary provided by Knust.

President’s League – President’s League has a lot going on this week.  Four teams are fighting it out for the last two spots in the playoffs.  The matchups this week will also have a large effect on how the playoffs are seeded.

·         Locked for Playoffs:

o   Austin Bamrick (10-2)

o   Jameson Bamrick (8-4)

o   Trevor Mickelson (8-4)

o   Logan Koch (7-5) – Worst he end up is (7-6), and has a significant point lead over everyone but Sully.  If Sully beats Renner and outscores Koch, Koch still gets in at (7-6) on his tiebreakers.

·         Fighting it out for last three playoff slots:

o   Dan Renner (7-5) – Renner locks with a win, but is in trouble with a loss due to low tie-breaking points.  Gets in with a loss only if Hanks loses to Jameson and Stewart loses to Whitney.

o   Mike Stewart (7-5) – Must beat Whitney because he has very low tiebreaking points.  Will not make it at (7-6) unless Renner beats Sully and Hanks loses to Jameson.

o   Mark Sullivan (6-6) – Gets in with a win off of good tiebreakers. 

o   David Hanks (6-6) – Needs to beat Jameson and get help from a Sully victory over Renner and a Stewart loss to Whitney.

o   President’s league is pretty complicated, but if any of the (7-5) teams win, they are in the playoffs.

o   There is a chance that all teams end up (7-6), which would send Logan, Sully, and Hanks to the playoffs barring Renner outscoring Hanks significantly in a loss, which is not likely.

·         Out of Playoffs:

o   Jeff Edwards (4-8)

o   Dan Whitney (4-8)

o   James Von Gillern (4-8)

o   Brian Nelson (1-11)

Purple League – Purple League is pretty uninteresting, and there is a possibility that Will makes the playoffs with a losing record.

·         Locked for Playoffs:

o   Dave Taylor (12-0)

o   Josh Knust (10-2)

o   Ryan Langtimm (7-5)

·         Realistic lock for Playoffs because of large points lead:

o   Adam Bianchi (6-6)

·         Fighting it out for last two playoff slots:

o   Dusty Kroll (6-6) – Plays Will this week.  Whoever wins is in the playoffs.

o   Grant Tiedemann (6-6) – Win-and-in.  Can lose and get in if Will loses against Dusty.

o   Will Postler (5-7) – Plays Dusty this week.  Whoever wins is in the playoffs.

·         Out of Playoffs:

o   Dave Schuchmann (4-8)

o   Andrej Klaric (3-8)

o   Joe Crispin (1-11)

White League – White League is the most uninteresting league.  Only one game affects who makes the playoffs, but obviously some of the other games affect seeding.

·         Locked for Playoffs:

o   Denton Patrick (8-4)

o   TJ Masker (8-4)

o   Tex Williams (8-4)

o   Alex Benda (7-5)

o   Kristiaan Swinton (7-5)

·         Fighting it out for last playoff slot:

o   John Ward (6-6) – Plays Kenny this week.  Must not get outscored by 28.

o   Matt Kenny (5-7) – Plays Ward this week.  Must outscore him by 28.

·         Realistically out of Playoffs because of large points deficit:

o   Alex Nielsen (5-7)

·         Out of Playoffs:

o   Jake Prieur (4-8)

o   Bill Edwards (2-10)

Gold League –Gold League will be guaranteed to see two playoff teams with losing records in the playoffs.

·         Locked for Playoffs:

o   Drew Pratt (11-1)

o   Nick Lincoln (7-5)

o   Andrew Nigro (7-5)

o   TJ Schmitt (6-6)

·         Realistic lock for Playoffs because of large points lead:

o   Juice Raval (5-7) – 43 points ahead of Heldt.  Gets in with a loss if Heldt does not outscore him by 43.

·         Fighting it out for last two playoff slots:

o   Tyler Shannon (5-7) – Must beat Heldt to make playoffs, as Heldt has more tiebreaker points.

o   Jim Heldt (4-8) – Must beat T-Shan to get in.

·         Out of Playoffs:

o   Taylor Zachar (3-9)

Owner Dan Whitney announces the establishment of his franchise, The Hellhounds. Hopefully this team takes orange and blue and doesn't embarrass itself like his beloved Bears.

First up, the President's League. The Mirthmobile manages to cling to first place, after a bold move by Breesus blew up in his face. The remaining 3 games are going to say a lot about who makes the playoffs or not, with even Cinderella Story Stomach Punch having a legitimate shot of making it in. Those at the bottom are currently fighting it out for who is going to end up relegated to the worst leagues, with everyone at the bottom at 3-7.

Las Tortugas now remains the sole undefeated member of The D League, with a 10-0 sweep of the Royal Purple, and only 3 games in the regular season to go. Will he remain undefeated? Looking at the rest of the league, only Never Say Wombat and Beats By Ray are legitimate contenders to knock him out of his run - everyone else is swimming in a cesspool of mediocrity. 

Murder Boner and The Flying Fortress currently are running neck and neck at the top of the White league, with Bilbo's not far behind, and actually in the mix for highest points. Given the relative weakness of the records of this league, even lowly Morning Woodhead could see his way into the playoffs and avoid relegation to the Gold League.

Last and Least, The Gold League. 

Dirty Mike continues to throttle the rest of this clownshoe league, but given that second place is 6-4, literally anyone who is anyone could end up in the 2nd bye week slot, and a guaranteed avoidance of relegation. Pratt has number one locked down at this point, but everyone else is fair game, except Zachar.

After multiple attempts at complaining, owner Ojash Raval announces the branding of his franchise: The Barking Spiders.

Next in line for Franchise Announcement - Josh Knust's Never Say Wombat. 

Your benevolent commissioner would like to take this opportunity to announce the next franchise design - the commissioner's own Dallas Dictators. With the red symbolizing the blood I put into this league and the clenched fist representing the preferred response to Zachar's questions, this design stands as a singular light in the league of darkness.
