PIFF/PIML Season Finale

Hello!

Well the Fantasy Football season ended a week ago, but I wanted to wait until all the stat corrections were in before champions were declared.

In a very close game the Svinksland Pillagers beat the Kreplachistan Rebels 38 to 34 to win the 7th Pirate Islands Fantasy Football Championship. If you had stat-tracker pulled up during the game you know how close this game was, it ended up tied after Monday Night Football but a forced fumble by Kevin Boss gave the Pillagers a win (the points were awarded after the games were over). Congratulations to the Pillagers for their long awaited first Championship.

The PIML championship game pit the two favorites against one another. In the end the Tea Republic Boilers beat out the Battle Cove Coasters 49 to 29 to win the first Pirate Islands Minor League Championship. The win was largely due to Chris Johnson's performance as running back.
Thanks to everyone for playing, I hope everyone had a good time. The season All-Star totals are below.

PIFF/PIML Highlights thru the Playoffs

Hello,
  We are heading into the championship games in both leagues, so lets get caught up with how the playoffs have gone so far:

PIFF:  The playoffs started in week 15, the Kreplachistan Rebels and Tuskestan Pickles got first round byes, while the Tea Republic Steepers beat the Scotslandi Kilters and the Svinksland Pillagers beat the Ninja Isle Eldars.
  The second week of playoffs saw the Kreplachistan Rebels beat the Tea Rebulic Steepers, while the Svinksland Pillagers got on by the Tsukestan Picklers.
  This sets up the Championship Game of the Kreplachistan Rebels vs. the Svinksland Pillagers.  This will be the second time that the Pillagers have made it to the championship game, the other time was the first season of PIFF in which they lost to the Grog Island Drunks.  The Rebels on the other hand have played in more than half of the championship games (this will make 4 out of 7) and is the only team to be the champion twice (2004 & 2007).  The projected score for the game is giving an edge to the Rebels by only one point.

PIML:  The PIML playoffs started last week and had the Tea Republic Boilers taking out the Tai Shu Trip'ems, while the Battle Cove Coasters beat the late surging Pesce Bay Savvy Sirens.
  So the first ever PIML championship game will be played out between the two heavy favorite from the start of the season - the Battle Cove Coasters and the Tea Republic Boilers.  Early reports heavily favor the Boilers however that projected score greatly depends on the performance of Chris Johnson for the Boilers.

I will get out the final All-Star totals as well as season All-Stars after the Championship Games.

PIFF/PIML Week 11 & 12 Wrap-up and All-stars

Hello,
Sorry about missing a week -I had tons of stuff to do at work, you would think everybody would be slacking off before Thanksgiving, but no.
First I should congratulate Mike (of the Picklers) and Julia (of the Kilters) on their first baby. They have a good amount of pictures posted on Facebook so check them out. Huzzah!
It is starting to come down to the last couple of games in the regular season for the football leagues so let's see how the playoff races are shaping up:

PIFF: There are two weeks left before the first round of the newly expanded playoffs. Right now the Picklers (8-4) and Kilters (8-4) are fighting for the Red Division championship and a first round bye. While the Pillagers (8-4) and the Rebels (effectivly 8-4) are battling over the Black Division. This leaves the Steepers (7-5), Maties (6-5-1), Eldars & Plankers (6-6), and the Snotknockers & Nites (5-7) to fight over the last two playoff spots.

PIML: There are three weeks until the playoffs in the PIML. There are four spots and five teams still in the hunt. The Coasters and the Boilers are in the lead with 7-5 records, while the Savvy Sirens, Trip 'ems, and Focus are all 6-6.

PIFF/PIML Highlights and All-Stars 09 Week 10

Week 10 was Yahoo proclaimed rivalry week, I tried to match up as many rivals as possible, and it looked like there were some close games.

PIFF: The big game of the week was the Plankers and Pillagers fighting to a 42-42 draw. That result leaves the Plankers half a game out of a playoff spot, and allowed the Rebels to take the lead in the Black Division. In the Red Division the Picklers and the Steepers are tied with a 7-3 record for the lead, many other teams are close behind.

PIML: The Savvy Sirens are on a three game winning streak and the Coasters are on a two game losing streak. This has allowed the Sirens to share the lead in the league with the Coasters and the Trip'ems. The Boilers are fourth with the Focus and Monkey Strings close behind.

PIFF/PIML Highlights and All-Stars 09 Week 9

Hello,
First off remember that the first football games each week will be on Thursday so make sure you look over your team before then.
PIFF: The Kilters are on a three game winning streak to be tied on top of the Red Division with a 6-3 record. The other teams with a 6-3 record are the Picklers and Steepers. In the Black Division the Pillagers have won two in a row and are now half a game ahead of the Rebels.
PIML: The Savvy Sirens and the Trip'ems both posted wins with 45 points scored, and both gained ground on the leading Coasters. Also the Focus has been on a two game winning streak which has caught them up to the faltering Boilers.

PIFF/PIML Highlights and All-Stars 09 Week 8

Hello,
The NFL is now halfway through it's season and the what the heck are the Saints doing still being undefeated? A bit of news is that this will be the last week for Coaches being included in the All-Stars since StatTracker has now made it impossible to find out optimal scores the day after the games are over.

PIFF: In a surprise to no one the Red Division is getting even closer, all teams are within one game of each other, and there are four teams at 5-3. The big win for the weekend was the Eldars putting up big numbers on the Picklers. The Black Division seems to be more of a three team race with the Rebels owning a half game lead on the Pillagers and Plankers.

PIML: The Battle Cove Coasters beat the Tai Shu Trip'ems soundly to take the lead in the PIML. The Savvy Sirens and the Boilers are trying to keep up as the Monkey Strings and Focus limp on behind.
