Week 11 is in the books and the 6 playoff spots look to be mostly settled. Jason and Josh have officially clinched. Binh, Kevin, and Mikey are pretty safe with 7–4 records. Anton is 6–5 but has a 100+ points advantage for any record tiebreakers. Bunger, Tani, or Jeff could still sneak into the playoffs if they win their last two weeks, but would need someone above them to lose their last two weeks, as a single win would lock their playoff berth. Strange things could still happen though!

With the Championship Playoff teams becoming clear, let me remind everyone how the “Sacko Playoffs” work.

8 non-championship teams will enter the consolation bracket, seeding is determined by regular season record and tiebreakers are decided by total season points scored.

IMPORTANT: Yahoo does not support an 8 team consolation bracket, so the bracket will be posted on Facebook and the website, and all scoring and tracking of the matchups will be done by the owners and commissioner. Any matchups listed by Yahoo of non-playoff teams during Weeks 14–16 are null and void.

Final two competitors of the consolation bracket will match up in Week 16. Winner of the consolation bracket will receive an additional 1st round pick in next year’s draft (#15 overall) to aid their rebuild.

Eliminated teams will continue to play out the bracket and the bottom two teams will match up in the Toilet Bowl in Week 16. Loser of the Toilet Bowl will be deemed League Sacko. Punishments are in the Constitution.

Back to the Week 11 recap. Mikey pulled in the highest weekly score, Bunger was able to squeak past Kurtis by 0.30 points to avoid the lowest score of the week. No, that photoshop at the top doesn’t look familiar, I don’t know what you’re talking about! I would never repeat because I’m lazy..

Josh is riding a league-high 5 week win streak all the way to 2nd place in the standings. Kurtis’ losing streak has extended to 7 weeks.
