In week 16 the eSFL ended it's 10th season with the most exciting championship game in it's history as the D Crownholders squeaked by a tough Texan Bruisers team by a score of 166.88 to 164.24, extending the losing streak for the Appalachian Division/conference in the big game to four games.
At 2300 hours Est on December 28th, 2009, with 13:20 left in the Monday Night Football game, the Crownholders' Visanthe Shiancoe caught the game winning pass to lead the team to their first ever eSFL championship. What appeared to be just another catch turned out to be so huge not even the head coach could hold back his excitement after the game. "Visanthe made a great catch for us, at the time we was looking to get him more balls to secure the victory without any doubts, but it turned out to be his last catch, wow", he stated during the post game celebration. He was referring to the fact Visanthe soon left the game with injury and never returned to action, just enough to lead the team to the title. Somewhere in fantasy football land his performance was not enough and his team came up short, but in the eSFL title game it was just what the Crownholders needed for victory. Quarterback and game MVP Tom Brady watched with excitement as Visanthe fell to the ground with the game winning catch, and afterwards pronounced himself the games second best player. Fans and league officials didn't agree and voted him Ballistic Bowl X game MVP with his four passing touchdowns for 43.98 points. On the other side, the Bruisers gave it everything they had all the way up to the final catch. They was able to hold off two good players on Sunday and Monday nights and were just seconds from victory. They were led by linebacker Brian Cushing who had a monster game with 25 points, but their running game play ended up being the difference. The team only had 23 points from their starters, while on the bench Darren Sproles sat with almost 29, ultimely that decision cost the team their first championship. "I don't know, coach felt like I wasn't the guy this week, go ask him", Sproles stated when asked about his benching for the title game.
.
The Crownholders were led to victory by a 43.88 point effort from Tom Brady, who was named the games most valuable player. He had 267 passing yards and 4 passing TDs, making him the number 1 ranked overall fantasy scorer for week 16. They also got help from a 30.00 point effort from Chris Johnson, who beat up the Bruisers defense for 142 rushing yards and 1 rushing TD in addition to 37 receiving yards.
"This team shows a lot of poise, we didn't let the highs and lows effect us, not today, not all season" D Crownholders coach Jordan Kizima said.
Texan Bruisers were helped out in a losing cause by a 26.24 point effort from Matt Schaub with 286 passing yards and 2 passing TDs. They also got help from a 25.00 point effort from Brian Cushing, 9 tackles and 1 interception.
"We only have to look in the mirror, we congratulate the opponent, but I take total responsibility for the loss with my decision to sit our sparkplug running back this week" Texan Bruisers coach Chaz Templin said.
Coach Templin was referring to Darren Sproles and his 28.60 points on the bench that would have led the Bruisers to a win.
The full box score and info can be found on the commissioner site, to be posted soon.

Ballistic Bowl X Preview
The Appalachian representive, the Texan Bruisers, have been one of the favorites for Ballistic Bowl X most all season, but a month ago the idea that the team would face the D Crownholders seemed completely ridiculous. As we all know, that's no longer the case. Over the past three games, the Crownholders have seemed like a completely different team compared to the one that struggled through the last half the season and didn't clinch the GFD final playoff spot until the final week, backing in with a Zima loss. Are they really a different team? Let's accept the premise that trends and splits from the entire regular season won't show us how the "real Crownholders" might do against Texan this week. In that case, we need to answer two questions:
1) Which aspects of the Crownholders postseason performance represent significant improvement, and which aspects just show the team going back to their performance level at the end of the regular season?
2) What are D's current strengths and weaknesses, if we expect their improved postseason play to continue into the Ballistic Bowl, and how do these match up against the strengths and weaknesses of the Texan Bruisers?
Those are the two questions we're going to try to answer in the rest of this Ballistic Bowl preview.
In an attempt to answer our questions about the Crownholders, we will split the season into four parts:
•Weeks 1-6: This is when D was playing very well. The Crownholders went into week seven at 4-2.
•Weeks 7-9: Crownholders cooled down a bit, getting handled by Appalachian opponents, going 1-2
•Weeks 10-13: The Crownholders collapse, getting stomped on by Zima, Frost, and Pardue while beating the hapless Boot Hill Balut.
•Weeks 14-15: Crownholders get their act together in run through the GFD playoffs, beating Temp and frost to advance to the Ballistic Bowl.
The chart below show the teams performance broken into four seperate parts of the season. We've also taken those week-to-week ratings for Bruisers and separated offense and defense points as well, so you can get a better idea of how the teams played in each facet of the game during different parts of the season. We are not running the basic stats for the teams, because that will can easily be found in the official stat section. Unlike D, Texan has been basically the same team for the entire season. (The Bruisers graphs also represent total offense and defense)
The Crownholders have won two postseason games in two different ways. They beat Temp by playing a strong defensive game (67). The Frost game was all about decent defense (37.5) and decent offense (103.5), especially considering the poor play from Frost. When we look at the Crownholders offense over the course the season, it seems pretty clear that the offensive game has never really suffered an extended slump. What is interesting is weeks 7-9, the teams non division part of their schedule. In those weeks their offensive production was the best and their defensive output was their second best. They went 1-2 in those games.
The Texan Bruisers won this year with defense, although only ranked in the middle of the pack with 484 points, as you can see by the chart, they needed it to win. On weeks where the defense didn't perform well the team usually loss, a sharp contrast to the Crownholders. Weeks 7-9 they were 3-0, and the playoffs 2-0, all their best defensive performances fell into those games.
Let's look at each teams Value Rank based on each offensive and defensive position:
Texan's offensive value rank of 10.575 was evident in weeks 7-9 and the playoffs, resulting in all five games as a win. Even with a defensive value rank this season of 4.9, the teams offensive play was able to overcome those numbers and get wins, only with in depth analysis can one see the defense stepped up on those weeks. Compare those value ranks with this weeks opponent, the Crownholders was a 10.92 and 4.25 respectively. However, the teams defensive output varied little, but was at its best in weeks 1-6 in which the team was its best 4-2. It's pretty safe to say that the team that will win will have it's defense outplay the other by a significant margin.
Each team finished the season in overall Value rank, Texan at four (58.1) and D at five (54.2). The greatest margin of position for Value rank belongs to the Crownholders at the running back, leading all eSFL teams in that area with a 21.2 rating. The Texan team was also led by the running back position, however, their ranking was a mere 10.2, pretty weak compared to that of the Crownholders.
So, you ask how can the Crownholders have finished with a poor 6-7 regular season record with all these great numbers and seemingly a huge advantage in this game? They did and the don't. They finished 6-7 simply because their team performance relies on the 5th best ranked quarterback and the number 1 ranked running back, and the 9th rated tight end, period. Brady and Johnson are the only threats on the team, and a huge game is needed from the defense and tight end position for the upset win in Ballistic Bowl X.
The Texan Bruisers will feature the 4th ranked quarterback, the 2nd ranked tight end, 2nd ranked linebacker, 5th ranked defensive back. A solid core of mid ranking teammates round out a strong team that should easily handle the Crownholders, unless they get 50 from each from Johnson and Brady.
Enjoy this weeks games, I believe the Appalachian division will win their first Ballistic Bowl, 163 to 148.
Merry Christmas.

Divisional Championships, 2009
The eSFL divisional championships are upon us and all four teams remaining were 3 and 4 seeds.
The Frost Furrious Flurries host the D Crownholders in the Global Division while the Texan Bruisers do the same for the Big D team in the Appalachian.
The Global Division has dominated the eSFL since division/conference play began in 2004, leading the Ballistic Bowl tally at 6-0 in title games. Yeah, that means no Appalachian team has ever won a Ballistic Bowl, and this year they hope to change that. If they are going to do so, the Texan Bruisers or Big D teams must find a way to put up 170 plus. This week, the Bruisers should roll past the Big D team by 40 points or more. Hey, they call me the human ouija (weegie) because of my game forecast skills, and this one is easy pickings. Aaron Rodgers and Ray Rice have been wonderfull performers for Big D all season, but with no wide reciever or tight end that can score more than 10 a week, they can forget it. The Bruisers will come at the Big D team with Pierre Thomas, Anquan Boldin, Vernon Davis, and more, With a superior lineup only bad luck can send the Bruisers home in defeat. Final score, Bruisers 164 Big D 127
In the Global Division championship, the D Crownholders get the opportunity to prove that two regular season losses to the Frost club cannot be used as a guage of current team play. The Crownholders entered the playoffs on a three game losing streak, and four of their past five. With a round one win over the favored Temp team quieted most all critics and appear primed for their first ever Ballistic Bowl appearence. The Frost team enetered the post season in a funk as well, going 2-4 down the stretch. Last weeks upset win over the highly favored Bruisermakers surprised the world, but don't be surprised to see them in Ballistic Bowl X fighting for the second championship in team history.
The human ouija (me), sees this as a serious battle that will end with the score seperated by less than three points. the winning team will be the one with Drew Brees at quarterback. The Flurries also have Colston, Williams, and Williams who will play very well. The Crownholders counter with the best running back in the eSFL since Marshall Faulk, but does not have enough assistance from the rest of his team to help pull this one out. Just imagine what the Crownholders could have had they not drafted Clinton Portis in the first round of the draft. My goodnes, had ownership made a decent pick this team could have gone undefeated. Like I said though, this team simply doesn't have enough players to add to Chris Jonson heroics. Final score, Frost 154 Crownholders 151
In the Gunner Bowl, Perdew pounds Boot Hill, final score 197 to 127. Perdew is the best team in the league, just had tough luck early in the season and couldn't recover. Well he recover this week, 110 dollars worth of recovery.
Good luck to all

Playoffs, Rd 1, Recap-2009
The 2009 eSFL playoffs ended last night and with it so did four teams' seasons.
All four Ballistic Bowl bracket games ended with the lower seeded team winning, sending the league into divisional championship week with none of the "big boy's" competing for a title.
In a week 14 estandout intra-divisional classic, Big D squeaked by a tough Fields Fanatix team by a score of 128.70 to 126.58, silencing a partisan crowd of 74,088.
The Big D vs Fanatix game was a nail biting down to the wire squeeker that resulted in a 3 point victory by the D team. They were led with a 31.20 point effort from Ray Rice, who rushed for 166 rushing yards and 1 touchdown, in addition to 53 receiving yards. With his performance, Rice was the number 5 ranked running back for the week. They also got defensive help from Darrelle Revis with an 18.00 point effort.
"We made a statement here today, one that says we are primed for a title, can beat anyone" Big D coach Joel Viall said.
The Fields Fanatix were led by Adrian Wilson with a 25.00 point effort ,8 tackles and 1 interception. Wilson was the number 2 ranked defensive safety for week 14. They also got help from a 17.00 point effort from Bryan Scott for 10 tackles. "Our defense played well enough to win today, offensively it was a real dissapointment. We tip our hats to the Big D team for a great performance" Fields Fanatix coach Bruce Fields said.
Causing further embarrassment, the Fanatix could have scored 152.00 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Bruce Fields left key players like Joe Flacco and his corresponding 20.10 points on the bench. "I struggled with who to start at qb all the way up to gametime, the decision I made was the difference", coach Fields said afterwards.
Big D took advantage of their schedule this week, as their point total would have gone for a loss against 10 out of 10 other potential opponents in week 14. "Sometimes in this league, luck is the mother of all good fortune", coach Viall stated.
This win sends the Big D to the Appalachian Divisional championship versus the expansion Texan Bruisers.
The Texan Bruisers are an early 14.3-point favorite
In the other Appalachian Division Wild Card game, the Texan Bruisers continued their strong late season play with an upset over the top seeded Whitmore Workhorse team by a score of 163.75 to 137.50, silencing a partisan crowd of 71,896.
The Bruisers were led to a 26.25 point victory by a 34.10 point effort from Jamaal Charles, who had 143 rushing yards and 1 rushing TD in addition to 38 receiving yards. With this performance, Charles was the number 2 ranked running back for week 14. They also got help from a 33.25 point effort from Matt Schaub, who tore apart the Workhorse team defense for 365 passing yards and 2 passing TDs.
"We've got the greatest fans in the world, they stuck with us all year and expect to see a huge turnout next week as well", Texan Bruisers coach Chaz Templin said.
Whitmore Workhorse was led by a 33.90 point effort from Peyton Manning, who got 220 passing yards and 4 passing TDs. With this performance, Manning was the number 3 ranked quarterback for week 14. They also got help from a 27.10 point effort from Thomas Jones with 99 rushing yards and 2 rushing TDs.
"We didn't match their intensity, couldn't get any running back or wideout points" Whitmore Workhorse coach Whitmore said.
Causing further embarrassment, Whitmore could have scored 171.50 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Whitmore left key players like Keith Bulluck and his corresponding 28.50 points on the bench.
Coming up in week 15, Big D will meet the Texan Bruisers for the Appalachian Division championship, where the Texan Bruisers are an early 14.3-point favorite.
In the Global Division, the D Crownholders upset top seeded Temp's Texas Boy's team by a score of 185.18 to 165.31, extending the winning streak for D Crownholders to 3 games and giving Temp head coach Mathew Templin only his second ever playoff loss in eight games.
The Crownholders were led to their 19.87 point victory by a 44.40 point effort from the beast, Chris Johnson, who had 117 rushing yards and 2 rushing TDs in addition to 69 receiving yards. With this performance, Johnson was the number 2 ranked overall fantasy scorer for week 14. They also got help from a 26.50 point effort from Brian Dawkins, added 7 tackles and 2 interceptions.
"It was a workman-like effort, our main guy once again proved the value of restricted free agency in this league", D Crownholders coach Jordan Kizima said.
The Temp's Texas Boy's were led by Ryan Grant with a 32.40 point effort and a 20.30 point game from Ricky Williams. "They wanted it more than we did, or the lord of luck wanted them to have it more than us, either way our season is over", Temp's Texas Boy's coach Mathew Templin said.
Temp's Texas Boy's could have scored 217.41 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Mathew Templin left key players like Brian Orakpo and his corresponding 35.50 points on the bench. The biggest coaching error in Templin's history may have cost him this game, as he started the inactive Percy Harvin at wide receiver. Had he used the health Derrick Mason he would have advanced.
The Crownholders move on to the Global Division Championship where they will meet the Frost Furrious Flurries, the Crownholdersare an early 0.1-point underdog.
Frost Furrious Flurries squeaked by a injury riddled Pardue Bruisermakers team by a score of 171.84 to 162.02, silencing a partisan crowd of 74,451.
Frost was led to their 9.82 point victory by a 41.04 point effort from Drew Brees, who got 296 passing yards and 3 passing TDs. With this performance, Brees was the number 4 ranked overall fantasy scorer for week 14. They also got help from a 20.00 point effort from Jay Feely, who snuck past the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense for 4 field goals made and 2 extra points. "We snatched victory out of the jaws of defeat," Frost Furrious Flurries coach Jeff Frost said.
Pardue Bruisermakers were helped out in a losing cause by a 33.30 point effort from Adrian Peterson, who had 97 rushing yards and 2 rushing TDs in addition to 40 receiving yards. With this performance, Peterson was the number 3 ranked running back for week 14. They also got help from a 27.30 point effort from Dallas Clarkwith 43 receiving yards and 3 receiving TDs. "I tip my hat to them, once again we go home from the playoffs dissapointed" Pardue Bruisermakers coach Ron Pardue said.
Compounding the issue, Pardue Bruisermakers could have scored 180.42 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Ron Pardue left key players like Chris Jennings and his corresponding 16.30 points on the bench.
Frost Furrious Flurries are at the D Crownholders to decide the Global Division championship in week 15. The D Crownholders are an early 0.1-point underdog.
All four Ballistic Bowl bracket games ended with the lower seeded team winning, sending the league into divisional championship week with none of the "big boy's" competing for a title.
In a week 14 estandout intra-divisional classic, Big D squeaked by a tough Fields Fanatix team by a score of 128.70 to 126.58, silencing a partisan crowd of 74,088.
The Big D vs Fanatix game was a nail biting down to the wire squeeker that resulted in a 3 point victory by the D team.

Playoffs Start With Surprises, 2009
Playoffs Start With Surprises
The start of the 2009 eSFL playoffs provided lot's of excitement and surprises, with more yet to come. The leagues best regular season team has seemingly fallen in the first round to the expansion Texan Bruisers while one of the leagues top coaches has an uphill battle to stay alive. The Temp Texas Boy's will need 60 points from three players if they wish to advance to the next round.
Meanwhile, The Frost Furrious Flurries have all but advanced with a surprising victory over the Pardue Bruisermakers, who continue to struggle in post season play.
Bruce Fields will be rooting for the Cardinals tonight, as he need 30 points from two players if he is to advance and have a chance to redeem himself for last seasons Ballistic bowl loss.
The Gunner Bowl series has the Perdew team smacking the Zima club and sending them to next weeks toilet Bowl game.
The Kav and Boot Hill matchup looks as though it could go either way, currently .10 points seperate the teams. Kav has the advantage with top tier players left and likely will face off against the Pulverizers for a money back shot.

Ballistic Bowl Bracket Busters
Ballistic Bowl Bracket Busters
By Josh Perdew
Welcome to the Ballistic Bowl Playoffs
We have some interesting matchups that include some league veterans, young teams, and a rookie. This has been another great season with some great upsets, a defending champion nearly going winless, and more smack talk than you can imagine. I, for one, am thankful for being in this league and look forward to competing with each of you for many years.
The Bracket is set and here are the matchups:
Big D vs. Fields Fanatix -Appalachian Division
Seven years in the league, six playoff appearances, three division titles, and three trips to the big one. Is it right by saying the best guy never to win the title? Not so fast! In a few weeks, we might be looking into changing the Hall of Fame entry requirements. Fields Fanatix are the most experienced team in the playoffs this year and are lead by Steven Jackson, Brett Favre, and Randy Moss. If these guys play to potential, he will be right back in the Ballistic Bowl finals for a record 4th time. Some folks seem to think Fields is a scrub, a guy who can't win the big game. I think this guy knows what he is doing. He drafts a solid core, picks great waivers and competes every year. This guy will be in the Hall of Fame one day, no doubt about it. Big "D" is a young team with 2 years in the league and 2 straight playoff appearances. He is lead by QB Aaron Rodgers and young RB Ray Rice. He will need outstanding games from both to hold Fields "three headed monster" in check. Rodgers throws for 34 and Rice runs for 29, but its not enough as Favre gets 28, Jackson with 26 and Moss with 22. Fields-167 Big "D"-148
Texan Bruisers vs Whitmore Workhorses-Appalachian Division
A quick congrats to the Texan Bruisers for making the playoffs in their first season. They are lead by studs Matt Schaub and Anquan Boldin. They are facing a Whitmore team that caught fire and has been atop the division all season long. Whitmore has an experienced bunch and one of the best QB's in the league in Peyton Manning. WR's Donald Driver, Chad Ocho, and TJ Housh have contributed to the success all season and I think they will continue and lay a beat down. Manning throws for 43, Ocho with a solid 19, and Housh will be the nail in the Bruisers with his third 100 yard game this season and post a nice 29 point game. In the losing effort, Schaub hits for 38 and Jennings gets 27 but its not enough. Whitmore-197 Texans-184
Frost Furrious Flurries vs Pardue Bruisermakers-Global Division
Frost is trying to prove that his 2007 Ballistic Bowl title was not a fluke. He has struggled against Pardue since joining the league in 2005 with a less than stellar 2-6 record in the regular season and 0-1 post season in the 2008 Gunner Bowl. Pardue is looking to make elite status and win his first Championship after a missed opportunity last season at the Ballistic Bowl playoffs. He did however take the Gunner Bowl. These two teams have never seen each other at this stage and things could get interesting. Frost has rode Brees and Colston the whole year and no surprise this week when they light up the Falcons on the scoreboard. Pardue needs AP to step up big time after a tough loss to the Cardinals. I believe this game will be tight and Frost pulls the upset due to Pardue's QB in backup Chris Redman. Matt Ryan has a foot injury and Pardue looks to be starting Redman, but he has the option to change his lineup and play Chad Henne or David Garrard, but this position will end up costing Pardue the game. Frost's Drew Brees lights it up for 45 points and he advances to the next round. Frost 174-Pardue-163
D Crownholder vs Temp's Texas Boys-Global Division
Congrats to D Crown for his 3rd straight playoff appearances since joining the league. If he wants to advance, he has some serious work ahead of him. He gets a shot to take on Temp's Boys and they have something to prove. As we all know, Temp is an elite in this league with a laundry list of accomplishments that include back to back championships and tons of playoff experience. He has a solid 3-1 record against D Crown, but this is the first meeting in the post season for these guys. This Temp team looks as dominate as ever with great players like Fitzgerald and recent standout Ricky Williams and great defenders as well with MLB Patrick Willis. These boys put up some serious points each week. D Crown will need an outstanding performance from Tom Brady and Chris Johnson to remain in this game. I see Brady dropping a 40 point bomb and Johnson getting 32 and it should be enough to hold off Temp. DCrown pulls the upset of the week and wins. DCrown-179 Temp-174

Gunner Bowl Preview, 2009 round 1
The Gunner Bowl and Ballistic Bowl tourney games have begun with last nights Thursday Night Football on NFL Network. The season has passed quickly once again and the league office has been very busy preparing for next season. But the 2009 season is not complete until a champion has been crowned and there are some very nice matchups around the league to look at.
The 6-7 Perdew Pulverizers, who hope to extend their 3 game winning streak, face off against the 5-8 Zima Ruskies for an opportunity to play in the Gunner Bowl Title Game.
Last week Perdew Pulverizers were led to a victory over the Texan Bruisers by wideout Wes Welker with 26.7 points. The Pulverizers have seemingly corrected their early season woes, albeit they were of the tough luck kind rather than self inflicted ones, to finish with a respectful 6-7 record. Based on projections from FantasySharks.com, the Perdew Pulverizers can expect a 22 point effort from Wes Welker in week 14, who is projected to get 80 receiving yards and 1 receiving TDs. "We have been playing good team football all season, played at a high level all season, but as they say, you are what your record is", Perdew Pulverizers coach Josh Perdew said.
The Zima Ruskies on the other hand, are one of the leagues weakest teams based on stats, but could have made the playoffs with one win in either of their last two games. Unable to get into the Ballistic Bowl playoffs was a devastating blow to ownership and the Gunner Bowl is not where they thought they would be a month ago. Last week in a loss to the Temp Texas Boy's tight end Jason Whitten had one of his best games of the season, a 29.60 point effort. Expect him to only post half that amount this week and the team needed a big performance from wide receiver Santonio Holmes. That didn't happen last night, but he did post a respectful 15.9 points with six catches and 93 yards. "This game is not only for bragging rights, but it's an opportunity to retrieve my league entry fee, and we are fired up about it" Zima Ruskies coach Jesse Kizima said.
This is the first game between these two franchises in their history, and is sure to be a good one.
In the other Gunner Bowl game, the defending Ballistic Bowl champ Boot Hill Balut take on the Kavanators from Kav in a matchup between two last place teams.
Coming up in a week 14 estandout battle, the 3-10 Kav's Kavanators, who hope to end their 3 game losing streak, face off against the 3-10 Boot Hill Balut.
The Kav's Kavanators got a 33.67 point effort from Philip Rivers in a week 13 loss, their eighth of the last nine games played. The team started the season as though they would be a sure contender for a playoff spot, but things began to go downhill in a week five loss to the Whitmore team. Last night tight end Heath Miller posted a very nice 18.5 point score, getting a good start to this weeks games. "We have to crank it up, want our entry fee back" Kav's Kavanators coach Ron Kavanaugh said.
The Boot Hill Balut team has ended the season as one of the hottest teams in the league, averaging 156 points per game over their last five and winning their final two. Injuries and tough luck were a factor in the season never getting started for them until around week 10, but poor manegement certainly played it's part as well. Last week Antonio Gates stepped up with a 24.70 effort, and surprise free agent starter Shaun Ellis posted 17.50 points in their win over the Flurries. We project Boot Hill Balut to geta 23 point effort from him in week 14, and Running back Moreno to get around 80, yes, 80. "We're playing not only for pride, but would be proud to bring a Gunner Bowl trophy into our possession", Boot Hill Balut coach T. Rhodes said.
This is the first game between these two franchises in 2009.
I project Boot Hill and Perdew to play next week in the Gunner Bowl championship game.
The losers of this weeks Gunner Bowl tourney games will play next week in the Toilet Bowl game, a game of Pride. I expect that to be the Zima Ruskies vs the Kavanators.
The 6-7 Perdew Pulverizers, who hope to extend their 3 game winning streak, face off against the 5-8 Zima Ruskies for an opportunity to play in the Gunner Bowl Title Game.
Last week Perdew Pulverizers were led to a victory over the Texan Bruisers by wideout Wes Welker with 26.7 points.

Last night tight end Heath Miller posted a very nice 18.5 point score, getting a good start to this weeks games. "We have to crank it up, want our entry fee back" Kav's Kavanators coach Ron Kavanaugh said.
The Boot Hill Balut team has ended the season as one of the hottest teams in the league, averaging 156 points per game over their last five and winning their final two. Injuries and tough luck were a factor in the season never getting started for them until around week 10, but poor manegement certainly played it's part as well. Last week Antonio Gates stepped up with a 24.70 effort, and surprise free agent starter Shaun Ellis posted 17.50 points in their win over the Flurries. We project Boot Hill Balut to geta 23 point effort from him in week 14, and Running back Moreno to get around 80, yes, 80. "We're playing not only for pride, but would be proud to bring a Gunner Bowl trophy into our possession", Boot Hill Balut coach T. Rhodes said.
This is the first game between these two franchises in 2009.
I project Boot Hill and Perdew to play next week in the Gunner Bowl championship game.
The losers of this weeks Gunner Bowl tourney games will play next week in the Toilet Bowl game, a game of Pride. I expect that to be the Zima Ruskies vs the Kavanators.

Playoffs, Gunner Bowl, and changes next year
The eSFL playoffs start tomorrow with four very nice looking matchups, and the Gunner Bowl tourney seed draw will take place today in about 25 minutes.
Next year the league is considering changing the playoff layout from it's current one division winner / three wild card, to a one division winner / two wild card / one blackjack.
Currently, each division winner and the second, third, and fourth place teams qualify for the playoffs. The change being considered would have each division winner but only the second and third place teams. The fourth team to make the playoffs from each division would not be based on record, but points fielded for the season. So, this years playoff layout compared to next seasons is defined below.
In the Global division there would be no changes to the playoff teams as the fourth place team also had the highest points fielded among the fifth and sixth place teams in that division.
In the Appalachian, there would be a change. This years teams are:
Whitmore (1)
Fields (2)
Big D (3)
Texan (4)
With the new format being considered, the playoff teams and seeds would be as follows:
Whitmore (1)
Fields (2)
Big D (3)
Perdew (Blackjack)
Perdew would be the fourth team in the playoffs because each division has one division winner (Whitmore), two wild cards (Fields and Big D), and one Blackjack (Perdew). The Old Maid is the fourth place or worse team in the division standings who had the highest points fielded for the season, regardless of record. So in this years Appalachian division, Perdew would get the Old Maid over Texan based on points, not record.
Also, even when the season is over all owners are encouraged to visit the commissioner and official webite frequently for announcements and dates. The new official site will have a league calander that you can view to identify the important dates such as restricted free agent signing deadlines, draft date, sign up dates, ect. Also, the commissioner site will have occasional stories, team page updates, and other enhancements. Everyone is encouraged to post articles and info on the site via the message board there or the eSFL insider.
With the new official site next year comes other opportunities to enhance the league.
Changes already in consideration are each starting lineup will consist of a punter.
The unique part of this starter will be he CANNOT score points for your team, he only can LOSE points. His scoring will be based so each week a great game for your punter would be zero, and a poor game would be minus seven. No punter will be able to score positive points UNLESS they score or throw for a touchdown, in which they will receive the same points as a running back for that category. Any ideas on this are appreciated.
Good luck in the upcoming post season games, I gotta go do the Gunner Bowl seed drawing.

Compounding the issue, Texan Bruisers could have scored 198.18 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Chaz Templin left key players like Jason Campbell and his corresponding 40.78 points on the bench.
This put the final record for Perdew Pulverizers to 6-7, and dropped the playoff bound Texan Bruisers to a record of 7-6.

Week 13 Preview-2009
There are several games that will decide the playoff teams this week in the eSFL, and the most prominent ones are the Zima vs Temp, and D versus Pardue games.
Last week Zima had a letdown and lost to the lowly Balut team, but even with a win this weeks game would have had the same implications. The Crownholders lost their second straight and three of the last four to fall to 6-6 and allow Zima to get back into the hunt. Zima holds the tiebreaker if both teams finish with the same record, beating D in week three 77.28-115.04 and again in week eleven 123.1-149.08.
Neither team is considered a powerhouse or threat for the league championship, but anything can happen once the playoffs start. Zima is the leagues worst team in the points fielded category behind even the pathetic Boot Hill team. However, the Zima team has the leagues least points against for the season allowing them to be in position for the final Global division playoff spot. The odd combination of the second best scoring defense in the league and lowest scoring offense in the league, the Zima team has had a roller coaster type season. His opponent the Temp Texas Boys are in quest of their fifth straight win as they roll into the playoffs on top of their game. At 9-3 the Temp team will be a tough beat for the Zima club, who they lost to in week five 135.34-127.38.
On the other hand, the D Crownholders are in the middle of the pack in both points against and points fielded, and their offensive and defensive points posted. The Crownholders will be at a huge dis-advantage this week as their opponent, Pardue, expects a big day from running back Peterson. Pardue will be looking to rebound from a dissapointing loss to the Texas Boy's last week and has many favorible matchups in his lineup.
Lets take a look at the playoff scenerios and positions:
In the Appalachian Division:
Whitmore will be the number one seed. (He holds all tiebreakers against the remaining teams)
If the final standings end as such:
1 seed-Whitmore (9-4 or -8-5)
Win- Fields 8-5 ----2 seed (6-4 div record)
Win- Texan 8-5 ----3 seed (5-5 div record)
Loss- Big D 7-6 ----4 seed
OR
1 seed-Whitmore (9-4 or -8-5)
Win- Big D 8-5 ---- 2 or 3 *seed (*what if vs everyone tiebreaker, likely Big D wins that tiebreaker)
Win- Texan 8-5 ---- 2 or 3 *seed (*what if vs everyone tiebreaker, likely Big D wins that tiebreaker)
Lose- Fields 7-6 ----4 seed
OR
1 seed-Whitmore (9-4 or -8-5)
Win- Big D 8-5 ----2 seed
Lose- Fields 7-6 ----3 seed (5-5 div record)
Lose- Texan 7-6 ----4 seed (4-6 div record)
OR
1 seed-Whitmore (9-4 or -8-5)
Win- Fields 8-5 ----2 seed
Lose- Big D 7-6 -----3 or 4 *seed (*what if vs everyone tiebreaker, likely Big D wins that tiebreaker)
Lose- Texan 7-6 -----3 or 4 *seed (*what if vs everyone tiebreaker, likely Big D wins that tiebreaker)
In the Global Division:
If the final standings end as such:
1 seed-Temp (9-4 or -10-3)
Win- Pardue 8-5 ----2 seed
Win- Frost 7-6 ----3 seed
Lose- D Crown 6-7 ----4 seed
Lose- Zima 5-8 (OUT)
OR
1 seed-Temp (9-4 or -10-3)
Win- Pardue 8-5 ----2 seed
Win- Frost 7-6 ----3 seed
Win- Zima 6-7 ----4 seed (Head to Head)
Lose- D Crown 6-7 ----OUT (Head to Head)
OR
1 seed-Temp (9-4 or -10-3)
Win- Frost 7-6 ----2 seed (Division record)
Lose- Pardue 7-6 ----3 seed (What if vs everyone tiebreker between D , Pardue will win)
Win- D Crown 7-6 ----4 seed
Win- Zima 6-7 -----OUT
OR
1 seed-Temp (9-4 or -10-3)
Lose- Pardue 7-6
Win- D Crown 7-6
Lose- Frost 6-7
Win- Zima 6-7 -----OUT
OR
Win- Frost 7-6 ---2 seed
Lose- Pardue 7-6 ----3 seed (What if vs everyone tiebreker between D , Pardue will win)
Win- D Crown 7-6 ----4 seed
Win- Zima 6-7 -----OUT
So,
If Zima loses or D wins, Zima is out
Well, it's complicated so we will wait until the games are final to see who gets seeded where.
Good luck to everyone.
My predictions for week 13 are:
Boot Hill over Frost
Zima over Temp
D over Pardue
Big D over Fields
Kav over whitmore
Perdew over Texan
The remaining positions between Fields, Big D, and Texan are yet to be decided.
Fields:
With a win in week 13 is number two seed
With a loss in week 13 will be number three seed
Big D:
With a win in week 13 and a loss by Texan, Big D will be Number two seed
With a win in week 13 and a win by Texan, seed two will be decided by the "what if" tiebreaker
Texan:
With a win in week 13 and a Big D win, seed two will be decided by the "what if" tiebreaker
With a win in week 13 and a Big D loss texan will be the number three seed
With a loss in week 13 Texan will be the four seed
-If Fields beats Big D then Fields has the number two spot. (tiebreaker over Texan owned)
-Big D tiebreker over Texan wth a win
