The Chefs needed four specific results from games today to squeak into the playoffs:
Managing the first three is pretty impressive, really. The fourth will take either divine intervention or replacing the Broncos' Gatorade with thorazine. Denver's a decent team on the brink of the post-season, and Frisco's a bad NFC team with nothing to play for. Still, had the Chefs put away the Browns, they wouldn't be dependent on this game.
Still, I got to see the Cowboys lose to the Lions, which has to be a slap in the face of Bill Parcells, and that makes me happy. And if the Bolts finish off the Cardinals (who still count as a professional football team) or the Ravens lose to the Bills (neither likely nor happening), Sandy Eggo has home-field through the playoffs. Glee.
Both of my fantasy teams -- the Caribou Vikings and the Manhattan Pretty Birds -- are second-place finishers. The Vikes lost the championship game last week by a field goal, and the 'Birds are stuck in second going into this week's games in NUFFLE. I almost feel guilty having LaDainian Tomlinson, but I've waited decades for the Bolts to rise again.
In other news, it's all snowy outside. Happy.
Edit: Buh? Niners beat Broncs in overtime? What the hell? Well, KC, welcome to the playoffs. I'd hate to be playin' ya.
- The Chefs needed to beat Jacksonville (and they did!)
- Pittsburgh needed to eliminate Cincy (and they did, in OT!)
- The Pats needed to beat Tennessee (unsurprisingly, they did)
- San Fran needs to beat Denver (don't hold your breath)
