And Starry is the Last Undefeated member of the ATS 2008 FF season...


Way to go starry...
You have been MIGHTY lucky this season so far...

The injury bug is destroying most teams in our leauge...

Here's a standings update for the people who seem to have abandoned the league:

STEPHEN HAWKING DIVISION
1. Cuba RR: 8-3-1 - W7
2. Team Fox: 8-4 - L2
3. Team Jennings: 7-4-1 - W3
4. Team Herbert: 7-5 - L1
5. ATS Eagles: 3-9 - L6
6. Skunkworks Scramjets: 2-10 - L1

JOHN LEAR DIVISION
1. Team Starry: 8-4 - W1
2. Canadian Mod Squad: 7-5 - L2
3. URanus Sleepers: 6-6 - W3
4. Beast America: 6-6 - L1
5. Aussie Thunder: 5-7 - W1
6. Tallaght Outlaws: 4-8 - W1

These standings reflect Week 12 scores and are only the projected standings. However, chances are these standings will be accurate as it would take a hell of alot of unforeseen things to happen in the Green Bay-New Orleans game to change any of the current scores.

After this week, there are two games and five playoff spots left. Only one team, the Cuba RR (ME!), has clinched a playoff spot.


**I put RR in place of my real team name just in case my real team name is offensive to someone.**

We're in the playoffs now for those that are interested.

Here are the final standings:

STEPHEN HAWKING DIVISION
1. yz-Team Jennings (TKainZero): 9-4-1
2. x-Cuba RR (NovusOrdoMundi): 9-4-1
3. x-Team Fox (ProTo Fire Fox): 9-5
4. Team Herbert (xpert11): 7-7
5. ATS Eagles (nyk537): 3-11
6. Skunkworks Scramjets (Scramjet76): 3-11

JOHN LEAR DIVISION
1. yz-Team Starry (jwstarry): 10-4
2. x-Canadian Mod Squad (GAOTU789): 8-6
3. x-URanus Sleepers (Bunch): 8-6
4. Beast America (beastamerica): 7-7
5. Aussie Thunder (OzWeatherman): 6-8
6. Tallaght Outlaws (CelticFC): 4-10

yz-clinch division title & first round bye
x-clinch playoff spot

Here are the first round playoff match-ups:

#1 Team Starry - BYE
#2 Team Jennings - BYE

#3 Cuba RR vs #6 URanus Sleepers
#4 Team Fox vs #5 Canadian Mod Squad

The first round scores at the end of the New York Giants-Dallas Cowboys Sunday Night Football game are:

#6 URanus Sleepers: 79 (0 players remaining)
#3 Cuba RR: 78 (1 player remaining)

#5 Canadian Mod Squad: 98 (0 players remaining)
#4 Team Fox: 72 (0 players remaining)

The lowest seed (worst seed) to advance will play Team Starry. The other advancing team will play Team Jennings. So it appears that Canadian Mod Squad will play their division rival Team Starry. I will play my division rival Team Jennings if the one player remaining can get at least 2 points tomorrow night.

The league was very competitive this season. Neither division was clinched until the last week, there were still three playoff spots up for grabs going in to the last week, and there were a few teams that made late season runs to get in and/or win the division.

Team Jennings and I tied each other early in the year, so whoever could manage to win our second game of the year owned the tiebreaker. It just so happened to work out that both him and I were making late runs, and also that we both played each other in the last week.

I owned a one game lead heading in to the last week, but if he won he would tie my record and own the tiebreaker. Unfortunately for me that is how it played out, so he won the division.

That's about the gist of this update. Congratulations to Team Starry and Team Jennings for their division titles, and all of the others who made the playoffs!

I would like to extend a good luck wish to my opponent. You're going to need it....

No, but seriously, good luck, and congratulations for getting in to the championship.

Everyone else that participated, thank you for participating. It was a close race and competitive league all the way to the end. Hopefully we can have the same result next season.

Thanks for the Wonderful FF season...



Congrats to ousting me in our 3rd meeting...


I hope i win my 3rd place game against the Candian Mod squad...




And with any luck, or help from the big boys at ATS, i will see you next year...

Our championship is over. The final score was Cuba RR 119 - Team Starry 77.

So our standings are as follows:

1st Place: Cuba RR (NovusOrdoMundi)
2nd Place: Team Starry (jwstarry)
3rd Place: Team Jennings (TKainZero)

TKainZero was banned, so if he no longer counts, GAOTU789 finished in 4th Place. If mods don't count, Bunch and ProTo Fire Fox tied...

It'd probably just be easier to give points out to the top 2.

Here is a link to the scoreboard for you to verify: scoreboard

Or if it doesn't let you view it, GAOTU789 can verify it.

Thanks again to everyone else for participating this season. I hope we can get the league up and running again next season!

Congratulations to the winners.

I had a good time with the league this season.

Congrats to our league commissioner and the winner(hmm.... conspiracy? ), NovusOrdoMundi. Good job man.

If you put the league together next season, keep me in mind.

Congrats to everyone that stayed active over the season also. It was a very competitive league overall, with a couple of exceptions.

Shhhhhhh!!!!! We must keep the masses ignorant!

I had the #1 pick too...

So shall we start organising our places for next year? Of course we will probably have more people wanting to join, but can we reserve places?

And what about the people that were MIA?

reply to post by OzWeatherman


The people that were active automatically get a chance to hold on to their spot. If they refuse, the spot will be opened for others to join.

I'm not sure how the ESPN leagues work, though. I'm not sure if it's a re-draft or if you keep the players on your team. Hopefully it will give us a choice.

These are the members who joined the league. The ones in bold are given automatic spot reservation rights:

TKainZero
NovusOrdoMundi
ProTo Fire Fox
xpert11
nyk537
Scramjet76
jwstarry
GAOTU789
Bunch
beastamerica
OzWeatherman
CelticFC

TKainZero got banned but I don't believe this league is officially connected with ATS, so I don't think anyone will have any objections to him being allowed to play next season. If I am wrong, please let me know.

reply to post by NovusOrdoMundi


Nope I got no objections....he was still keeping up with his team anyway. I believe ESPN does have a choice of wether you keep your team or not, but I think we should have another draft anyway, it keeps it fun that way

Just something to think about, how about we expand the league to 14 teams next year or would that be too large? In my opinion, it would be great as you need a tad more cunning to be succesful with less of a choice of players in the free agent pool

reply to post by OzWeatherman


If we expanded we would have to expand the player pool. I think 14 would stretch it too thin. I understand and think it's a good idea to force strategy, but 14 may be a bit too much.

If we were to do that, it would be best to start with the defenses. Individual players as opposed to team defenses would help fill roster spots.

Ah ok

That would make it a tad more challenging I suppose and the draft would take longer wouldnt it
