Darien's Cut

Ok...one more time...

Please add back to Darien's roster TE Kris Mangum and release WR/LP Shaun McDonald off of his team and into the draft/free agent pool.

He didnt realize that he had 2 Lone Pr's...so he figured he should release McDonald instead of Mangum.

Remember: you are only allowed to have 1 Lone PR (LPR)...you may have more than 1 punt returner (pr) ...but only 1 LONE (LPR). And if you only keep 1 punt return man on your team, then he must be a Lone PR not simply a (pr). Same exact thing applies to the kick returners as well.

Thanks

Darien's Cut

Darien had to cut one more player...he has released TE Kris Mangum (Carolina)...so you can add him to the available list for the upcoming draft.

Thanks

Roster Correction

Men,

I already sent an email, but please make this correction:

Bloomington's roster should include C Dan Koppen (N.E)...he is not available in the draft.

you can take G Joe Andruzzi from Bloomington's roster...he is available in the draft.

Once again, sorry for the error!!

ASFLC - July

Men,

It is that time of year again!!

The strat-o-matic previews are on the strat website and you can pre-order your new strat game now. The ASFLC is full with 24 owners and a few owners on a waiting list. We are excited to see our league continue and hopefully this year will be better than ever.

We currently have 3 new owners:
Jeff Coulter - Florida
Nelson Jones - Illinois
Gary Lemaster - Ohio

Remember that we use this "blog" for our 18 round (3 week) draft in September.

Also, my brother and I will be proposing a rule change in the next couple of weeks. We will submit to you the 2 options and than ask for a league-wide owners vote. My brother and I will only vote in the case of a tie from the other 22 owners.

But for now, enjoy a little more time off!!

San Fran - Super Bowl Champs!!

Another impressive performance by San Fran's defense leads them to a Super Bowl victory!!

S.F beats DaGints 19-3 and wins the ASFLC Super Bowl III. Congratulations to Jason Bergmann as he finishes another fine season with his first Championship!

Congratulations to John Croyts and his DaGints on their 3rd consecutive Super Bowl appearance.

DaGints finish the season with a 14-5 mark and S.F finishes with a 16-2 record.

Thanks to all the owners who made this season so enjoyable. Our first season as commissioners went far better than expected and we are excited about continuing our league for many years to come. Hopefully the majority of our owners will return and we will be able to add a few more dependable owners in the offseason.

Also, watch for the results of the Pro Bowl game as we head into the offseason.

Thanks again!

San Fran - AFC Champs!

Congratulations to San Fran led by Jason Bergmann as they repeat as AFC Champs and return to the Super Bowl. San Fran returns after defeating the Mashers in a low scoring defensive struggle, 14-5. The Mashers scored first on a safety and then added a field goal to take a 5-0 lead. But on the next play San Fran ran the kickoff back for a touchdown and took the lead 7-5. It stayed 7-5 most of the way until Willie Parker scored from 3 yards out. Once S.F went up 14-5, the Mashers started turning the ball over and never did get any offense generated. The Mashers finish for the second year in a row as AFC runner-ups while S.F finds themselves right back in the same place they were a year ago. This year they will try and defeat last year's Super Bowl Champion DaGints.

DaGints - NFC Champs

DaGints win the NFC Championship over Oklahoma 34-3. Congratulations to John Croyts and his DaGints for making it to their 3rd straight ASFLC Super Bowl. After losing the first year, they won their first Super Bowl trophy a year ago. Now they look to repeat after defeating Oklahoma. Oklahoma, led by Bill Hart is to be congratulated on a great turnaround. Oklahoma went from worst to first in their division and made it all the way to the Championship Game.

DaGints will play the winner of the AFC Championship Game between the Mashers and San Francisco.

AFC / NFC Championship Games

Our league is down to the Final Four!! Only 3 more games: AFC & NFC Championship Games and the Super Bowl.

AFC Championship Game:
The Mashers at San Francisco
A Rematch of last year's AFC Championship game in which San Fran won pretty convincingly. The two teams also played during the season and the Mashers won with a late touchdown. San Fran looks to make it to their second straight Super Bowl and the Mashers look to overcome S.F and make it to their first ever Super Bowl. San Fran finished this season with the best record in the league at 13-3 while the Mashers won their division at 11-5.

NFC Championship Game:
Oklahoma at DaGints
A matchup between the two best records in the NFC. DaGints at 12-4 and Oklahoma at 11-5. Oklahoma continues their amazing season after finishing last year with a 3-13 record and the first pick of the draft. This year they won their division and now face last year's Super Bowl Champion DaGints in the NFC Championship Game. DaGints look to get back to the Super Bowl for the 3rd straight season after losing to Eau Claire in the first ever ASFLC Super Bowl and then winning the Super Bowl last season vs. San Fran.

San Fran wins

The last divisional playoff game is in. San Fran defeats Wisconsin 34-20. Willie Ponder returned the opening kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown and S.F never looked back. This sets up a rematch of last year's AFC Championship Game between the Mashers and San Francisco. S.F won last year and played DaGints in the Super Bowl. DaGints are also trying to get back to the Super Bowl as they face Oklahoma in the NFC Championship Game.

Oklahoma wins!

Oklahoma wins a nailbiter! Norfolk led most of the way and took a 10 point lead early in the fourth quarter. Down 27-17, Oklahoma scores a touchdown with 8:42 to go to pull the game within a field goal. Oklahoma on its final drive reaches the 4 yard line with :30 seconds to play. Kurt Warner finds L.J. Smith in the endzone for a touchdown and a 31-27 win. Congratulations to Norfolk on a great season led by 1st year coach George Torres. Oklahoma moves on to play DaGints in the NFC Championship Game.

DaGints win

DaGints defeat Rochester 27-14 to eliminate Rochester from the playoffs. DaGints return to the NFC Championship Game after winning the Super Bowl last season. DaGints will play the winner of the Norfolk - Oklahoma divisonal playoff game. Congratulations to Rochester on an excellent season and a great comeback from a 1-5 start led by Kenny O'berg!

Mashers defeat Waunakee

The Mashers defeat Waunakee 35-20 to move on to the AFC Championship Game. The Mashers will play in their second straight Championship Game after losing last year to San Fran. The Mashers will play the winner of the Wisconsin - San Fran divisional playoff game. Wisconsin and San Fran played last year in the divisional playoffs with S.F winning 17-10. Congratulations to Waunakee on a great season led by 1st year coach Dale Ripley!

ASFLC Divisional Round

The wildcard games are all in and now we move on to the divisional round of the playoffs.

Here are the matchups:

AFC
1. Waunakee (11-5) at the Mashers (11-5)
This is a rematch of a regular season game in which the Mashers won by a field goal in overtime.
2. Wisconsin (10-6) at San Francisco (13-3)
This game is also a rematch of a regular season game in which San Fran beat Wisconsin convincingly.

NFC
1. Rochester (9-7) at DaGints (12-4)
These are two division opponents in the NFC East. They split the season series with the DaGints winning the first game by 3 points and Rochester winning the rematch also by a field goal.
2. Norfolk (9-7) at Oklahoma (11-5)
This is also a rematch from a regular season game in which Norfolk won.

Should be a good second round of the playoffs!!

Norfolk moves on

Norfolk moves on to the divisional round by defeating Darien 37-24. Norfolk will now play NFC Central Division Champion Oklahoma coached by Bill Hart. Bill Hart is the "comeback coach of the year". Oklahoma went from worst to first in their division. Putting up an 11-5 record after having the first pick in last year's draft. It should be an exciting game against Norfolk. Congratulations to Norfolk's coach George Torres on his first ASFLC Playoff victory!!

Wisconsin moves on

Wisconsin beats Eau Claire for the 3rd time this season. Like both other games, Wisconsin holds on to win by a touchdown, 31-24. Eau Claire finished the game at Wisconsin's 5 yard line but failed on downs to get the ball in the end zone. Wisconsin moves on to the divisional round to play #1 seed San Fran.

Rochester moves on

Rochester beats Chatham 14-13 in the wildcard round. Rochester moves on to play the DaGints in the divisional round. Oklahoma waits to play the winner of the Norfolk - Darien wildcard game.

Waunakee moves on!

The first wildcard game is in and it wasnt close!! Waunakee led by Daunte Culpepper knocked Pecatonica out of the playoffs with a 38-0 blowout. Waunakee moves on to play the Mashers in the divisional round. San Fran waits to play the winner of the Wisconsin -Eau Claire wildcard game.

Wildcard Week

We have what appears to be 4 good matchups for Wildcard Week!

In the AFC we have:
Pecatonica (7-9) at Waunakee (11-5)
This is a rematch of an earlier game this year. It was a low scoring affair with Waunakee winning 13-3. Neither team did alot on offense but that was early in the year. Expect this game to be much higher scoring. Waunakee has put up over 480 points this season, averaging 30 a game under first year head coach Dale Ripley. Waunakee (last year's Apex) won last year's wild card game vs. New York before losing a close divisional playoff game to the Mashers. Pecatonica surprisingly beat Vegas in week 16 to earn the final playoff spot. Pecatonica (last year's Antioch) did not make the playoffs a year ago.

Eau Claire (7-9) at Wisconsin (10-6)
This is also a rematch between two division teams. They just played each other in week 14 and Wisconsin won a low scoring game. Earlier this season Wisconsin won their other matchup. Wisconsin won both games by 7 points. Wisconsin has also put up approximately 30 points per game. Both Wisconsin and Eau Claire make the playoffs for the third straight year. Eau Claire and Wisconsin also played in last year's wildcard game with Wisconsin winning that game as well. Should be a good game between 2 division opponent coaches (Bob Stooges and Steve Brandvold) who know each other well.

In the NFC we have:
Rochester (9-7) at Chatham (9-7)
This is also a rematch from a game earlier this season. Rochester won that shootout over Chatham 36-30. Rochester, coached by Kenny Oberg, turned their season around after a 1-5 start. Last year Rochester won their wild-card game against Ann Arbor before losing a heartbreaker in the divisional playoff round to Bloomington. Chatham (last year's Seaside) had double digit losses and didnt come close to making the playoffs. This has been a good, quick turnaround by first year coach Sean Crawford. Should be another exciting high scoring affair.

Norfolk (9-7) at Darien (9-7)
This is the only game of the week that isnt a rematch from earlier in the season. Both teams finished 2nd in their divisions with a 9-7 record. Darien did not make the playoffs one year ago and have comeback nicely under head coach Ed Freimuth. Norfolk (last year's Guinness) missed last year's playoffs even though they had a solid 10-6 record. Both teams have the ability to put up alot of points and yet have solid defenses. Norfolk's coach George Torres has done a nice job in his first year. This should be another exciting game!

Good luck guys and looking forward to hearing the results!

ASFLC Playoffs

Everyone should have received the "final" league manager. After doing all the tiebreaker scenarios, here is how the playoffs look:

NFC
#1 seed - DaGints (won NFC East) 12-4
#2 seed - Oklahoma (won NFC Central) 11-5
#3 seed - Chatham (won NFC West) 9-7
#4 seed - Darien 9-7
#5 seed - Norfolk 9-7
#6 seed - Rochester 9-7

** Tiebreakers
The first 3 seeds were easy because they each won their division and had different records.
The 4-5-6 seeds all had the same records. According to NFL.com, if 2 of the teams are in the same division, you first find out which team earned 2nd place in their division. So, since Norfolk beat Rochester both times. Norfolk is awarded 2nd place in the division and Rochester is 3rd place in the NFC east. So, the 4th seed is only between Darien and Norfolk. The first step is head to head between the 2 teams. since they did not play, we move to the second step which is conference record. Darien's conference record was 7-5. Norfolk's conference record was 6-6. Therefore, Darien is awarded the 4th seed and Norfolk the 5th with Rochester taking the final 6th seed.


AFC
#1 seed - San Fran (won AFC west) 13-3
#2 seed - Mashers (won AFC central) 11-5
#3 seed - Waunakee (won AFC east) 11-5
#4 seed - Wisconsin 10-6
#5 seed - Eau Claire 7-9
#6 seed - Pecatonica 7-9

** Tiebreakers
This was obviously much more difficult. The #1 seed was easy with San Fran having the best record. The Mashers take the number 2 seed because of their overtime victory earlier in the season versus Waunakee. So, Waunakee then takes the 3rd seed. Wisconsin is the best record of all the wild-card teams so they take the 4th seed.

Now it gets really tricky. There were 4 teams with a 7-9 record. According to NFL.com the first thing we do is deal with any 2 teams who are in the same division. Which was Pecatonica and Vegas. In their head to head matchups, Pecatonica beat Vegas both times. This takes Vegas out of the tiebreaker. Now the three remaining teams (Long Island, Eau Claire, Pecatonica) go head to head to head. If any team won against both of the other opponents, then they would get the next seed. So the #5 seed goes to Eau Claire since they beat both Long Island and Pecatonica. So, the 6th seed comes down to Long Island or Pecatonica. We go back to head to head and Pecatonica beat Long Island, therefore eliminating Long Island and giving Pecatonica the #6th seed.

I hope this is clear. (You can check all the tiebreaker scenarios with the "tiebreaker rules" we sent out a few weeks ago.
