| I meant to do this earlier in the week but I have just had no time at all. Playoffs: Randy's Dandies, Bird Brains, Fear Itself, and Lindy Hoppers have clinched playoff spots. Randy's Dandies and Bird Brains have clinched division titles. Fear Itself can clinch a division title with a win and a Lindy Hoppers loss this week. Fear Itself will also clinch a first round bye if Randy's Dandies or Bird Brains lose also. Randy's Dandies can clinch a first round bye with a win and a Bird Brains loss and a Fear Itself win. The other 2 playoff spots can not be clinched this weekend. Purple Sunday and Whitecaps control their own destiny, 2 wins and they are in. C'ville Survivors would lose tiebreakers because of total points, so they wouldn't be mathematically eliminated with a loss, but it would almost be impossible if they lose and Purple Sunday and Whitecaps win. War Eagles will lose any tiebreaker because of division record, so they probably need 2 wins a little help. Team Hostess would probably win any tiebreaker at 6-7 so with 2 wins they would get in if 3 of the 5-6 teams lose a game. Sumthin' 'bout Brett would win tiebreakers at 6-7 if Team Hostess is not involved, so they need either Whitecaps or War Eagles to lose once and Team Hostess to lose once and 2 wins, which would be over Purple Sunday and Survivors. Twinkies need to win twice and a lot of help. Someone in Puff, Puff, Pass will get to 6-7, so Twinkies need 3 of the 5-6 teams to lose twice. Snowballs can not make the playoffs. Renaming: Snowballs to win their last 2 and need Sumthin' 'bout Brett to lose their last 2, then need Bird Brains to beat either Twinkies or Team Hostess in the next 2 weeks to avoid renaming. Yes, Vince's team can only avoid getting renamed if Liz's team gets renamed. Twinkies would avoid renaming with 2 wins. If Twinkies lose this weekend and Team Hostess wins this weekend, then Twinkies will clinch renaming. Twinkies still can avoid renaming with a loss if Team Hostess loses too, then beat Team Hostess next week. Sumthin' 'bout Brett will avoid renaming with one win if Twinkies or Team Hostess lose this weekend. They can also avoid renaming at 4-9 if they are tied with just Twinkies because of head to head, or if neither Twinkies or Snowballs get to 4 wins. So if Twinkies and Snowballs both lose this weekend, Sumthin' 'bout Brett is safe no matter what else happens. Team Hostess will probably get renamed if they lose their last 2, I think they will only get out of it if it is a 3-way tie with Twinkies and Sumthin' 'bout Brett. Team Hostess could get renamed if they win either of the last 2 games, but only if they are tied only with Twinkies at 5-8, and that is almost impossible, it involvies SBB winning twice, and every 5-6 team getting another win too. All of the 5-6 teams will be safe if Team Hostess or Twinkies lose this weekend. If they both win this weekend, then Twinkies beat Team Hostess next week, a currently 5-6 team could get renamed at 5-8. I feel a lot of pressure to beat the Twinkies this weekend  I think it would make a lot of teams very happy if I did.
