Full transactions log for 2025 season.
Continue reading “2025 Transactions Log”The Miami Muffdivers entered the Monday night football game with a 33-point lead over the Philadelphia Griffins and were big favorites to finally win the franchise’s first championship. But then the Griffins dropped a coin into their Bijan Robinson pinball machine, and Fantasy Bowl XXXIV turned into a Philadelphia story. Robinson’s 32.5 points propelled the Griffins to a 62-53.5 comeback win.
The Griffins join the Blowfish and Mud franchises with a record 5 championships each.
In the third-place game, the Froglickers plugged in their own pinball machine named Derrick Henry and rode his 44 points to an easy 97.5-67 win over the Big Bang.
And in the fifth-place game, Monday night provided another comeback – this one for the Wildcats, who barely edged the Beach Dudes 66.5-63.
With one week left in the points race, Philadelphia leads Miami by 19.5 points, with the Big Bang (-35), Armadillos (-35.5) and, theoretically, Froglickers (-75.5) still within striking distance of an overall points prize.
Fantasy Bowl XXXIV:
Philadelphia Griffins (10-6) 62, Miami Muffdivers (10-6) 53.5
Third-Place Game:
Frelinghuysen Froglickers (9-6) 97.5, Big Oregon Bang (9-6) 67

Continue reading “Griffins Huge Comeback Denies Divers”The top two seeds were easily toppled in the semifinals, as the Big Bang fell 122-70.5 to Miami, and the Froglickers lost 92-85 to Philadelphia. That leaves us with a rematch of the 2007 Fantasy Bowl, as Miami with face Philadelphia for the championship.
Miami’s score of 122 points fell one short of tying the record highest score for a playoff game, which is 123 points by the Blowfish in the 2020 semifinals.
Miami is looking for the franchise’s first-ever Fantasy Bowl win. The Muffdivers have only appeared in two previous Fantasy Bowls: losing 78-37 to Philadelphia in the aforementioned 2007 title game, and a 84-70.5 loss to the Armadillos in 2022.
Meanwhile, the Griffins are making their record 12th appearance in the Fantasy Bowl, with 4 wins and 7 losses in their previous 11 contests. With a win, the Griffins would tie both the Mud and the Blowfish franchises, who have 5 championship wins each.
All playoff teams will be in action this week to determine the championship and top six places.
In the points race, four teams are still in contention for the top two spots. The Griffins (1278) hold an 11-point edge over the Muffdivers (1267), but the Armadillos (1247.5) and Big Bang (1238) are both still within easy striking distance with two weeks remaining. All other teams are more than 100 points off the lead.
Fantasy Bowl XXXIV: Miami Muffdivers (10-5) vs. Philadelphia Griffins (9-6)
Third-Place Game: Big Oregon Bang (9-5) vs. Frelinghuysen Froglickers (8-6)
Fifth-Place Game: Connecticut Wildcats (7-7) vs. Orange County Beach Dudes (6-8)

Continue reading “Griffins and Muffdivers Advance to Semifinals”For the first time ALL season, the six winning teams were also the six highest-scoring teams. Count the Griffins (15.25 FFL-GOO points) and Wildcats (15) among them — both teams held their own playoff fate, and they won with high scores. And while the Beach Dudes (14) lost their game and failed to score in the top half, the Chicago Mud (12.5) and the Mercer Mustangs (12.25) both failed to capitalize on the opportunity.
The Big Bang (19) is our top seed and will enjoy a bye for the quarterfinals along with the Froglickers (17.5) who grabbed a 1/2 point this week and hold the second seed.
Miami (16.5) gained no points this week and holds steady at the #3 seed and will face Orange County in the quarterfinals. The Griffins and Wildcats will face off in the second quarterfinal game.

Coaches Cathy Weaver and Doug Weaver were outstanding when it came to lineup decisions this week, while Coaches Chris Paret, Jeffrey Ozarski, and John Trzeciak had a very rough week in that department. Meanwhile, Ron Yeany won by setting a perfect lineup. Read all about it in this week’s report.
Continue reading “Week 14 Recap”Add the Big Bang to the list of playoff-bound teams as Oregon (17 FFL-GOO points) vaulted into a tie with the Froglickers (17) atop the league standings. And while the Muffdivers beat the Froglickers in their head-to-head matchup, Miami (16.5) failed to score in the top half and falls to third in current standings.
The two highest-scoring teams of this week, oddly, are the two teams that join those eliminated from the playoff hunt. Keystone (12) posted 97.5 points while Dallas (11) scored 95 on their bye week. Both will both join Boxboro (7), Happy Valley (8), and New Chester (9) on the sidelines for the post-season.
That leaves five teams vying for the remaining three playoff spots as we enter the final week of the regular season.
Beach Dudes (14) vs. Griffins (13.25) is a key matchup this week. Orange County would clinch a playoff spot with a win. Philadelphia would clinch a playoff spot with a win AND with either a Mercer loss or Mercer low-score. If this is a high-scoring game, it’s possible both teams clinch playoff spots.
The remaining contenders and their week 14 opponents:
Wildcats (13) vs. Violence — Connecticut would clinch a playoff spot with a win and a full point for high-scores. But the Wildcats enter this game having lost 3 of their last 4 while averaging only 56 points per week over than span.
Mud (12.5) vs. Blowfish — Chicago does not control their own fate and would need some help. The Mud have lost 4 of their last 5 games, with all those losses coming against playoff teams or other contenders.
Mustangs (12.25) vs. Big Bang — Mercer keeps doing just enough to remain a distant longshot, but is this the week their luck runs out? Oregon is the hottest team of the second half and is on a 5-game winning streak.

Big Oregon Bang won their 5th in a row, while Boxboro Blowfish took yet another hit to the loss column. That plus a crushing loss for Happy Valley Violence in this week’s ‘Around the League’ report.
Continue reading “Week 13 Recap”With two weeks remaining in the regular season the playoff picture is taking shape. Three teams have been eliminated, two teams have clinched playoff spots, and those two teams — Frelinghuysen and Miami — play each other this week in one game that could determine the #1 overall seed.
As for the standings, the Froglickers (17 pts) and Muffdivers (15.5) have clinched playoff spots. The Thorobreds (8), Blowfish and Violence (both 7) have been eliminated. Dallas and Keystone are wobbling. The Longfellows lost a winnable game this week, and the Armadillos underperformed in a game decided by 5 points. DAL and KEY both have byes remaining, so with 10 points each and only 3 potential points remaining, the playoff outlook considerably bleakened for both this week.
The Big Bang (15) is riding a 4-game winning streak and has averaged over 90 points per game over the past 5 weeks. The Beach Dudes (13) are surging and just acquired the NFL’s touchdown leader at the trade deadline. These teams are both looking good for playoff spots.
With two playoff spots remaining, Chicago and Connecticut (both 12.5) control their own fate. They lead the remaining two playoff contenders — Philadelphia and Mercer (both 11.25) — by 1.25 points.

Big Oregon Bang won their 4th in a row, while Boxboro Blowfish took yet another hit to the loss column. Meanwhile, Orange Co. Beach Dudes beat New Chester Thorobreds within an inch of their lives as part of this week’s exciting action.
Continue reading “Week 12 Recap”With 3 weeks remaining in the regular season, the trade deadline is upon us. The Froglickers, Muffdivers, and Big Bang all seem well-positioned to make the playoffs. The Mud has Jonathan Taylor.
After that, two additional teams will make the playoffs and currently the Mustangs (11.25), Beach Dudes (11), Wildcats (11), Griffins (10.25), Armadillos (10), and Longfellows (10) are all within one and a quarter points of each other in the standings.
Throw in all the injuries and scoring volatility we’ve seen this year, and it still feels like a pretty wide open race; and after the playoffs start, anything can happen.
On to the business at hand – this weekend is the trade deadline. Players are locked in at kickoff of their respective games and can be traded up until their Week 12 games kick off (which start tonight!). Players on bye this week can be traded up until kickoff of the Monday night game.
Week 12 also marks a couple other things:
1) Protection cutoff – a player must be on a fantasy team roster continuously starting this week to be eligible for protection for 2026 rosters. In other words, players added after this week will not be eligible to protect for 2026.
2) Transactions revert back to first-come, first-serve. The usual caveats apply to first-come adds: all players involved in the transaction must have completed their games for the week; and CBS keeps players locked every week until Tuesday morning, so transactions remain in-queue with time/date stamps until CBS closes out the previous week, at which point I can process our transactions.
