As the BBFL enters the final week of the regular season there is still a lot at stake.


Congratulations to Billie's Bashers, the Magic 9, Ghost Man on Third, the Eastern Shore Birds, Baseball North, Schroedinger's Bat, the K-Town Mashers and the Garth Iorg Gremlins who all clinched playoff spots this week.

Eight playoff spots are still up for grabs, in Alomar veteran teams the Halos, Walrus and Hammers should be fighting for the final two places, with AGF still having a shot with a big week. In Barfield the Wedding Singers look be to be odds-on for the fifth spot, with the Wonders, Elitists, Monkeymen and force battling for sixth. The Carter division is the most wide open with (at least) seven teams all eyeing the final four playoff spots. In Alomar and Barfield some of us are more worried about relegation than the playoffs, my ragtag bunch are in eleventh in Alomar but another week like the drubbing I got from W-A-M-C-O last week and I could be swaeting it out over the weekend hoping to avoid shaming the office of commish with relegation, although the cannibal's are currently in the final relegation spot a good week by them and seven other teams are within 7 games of the final three. In Barfield two of the bottom three spots still look to be decided, and it will be a nail biting week there too.

Thanks to all the owners who have sent in their league payments (and a gentle reminder to those who haven't).

I'd like to report on the success of my effort to jinx Derek Jeter. A little while back, I commented on the Eastern Shore Birds Middle Infield Jinx (TM) (guaranteed to crush the performance of any player or your money back), and offered to apply the jinx to Yankee or Red Sox middle infielders. Schroedinger's Bat kindly traded me Derek Jeter (in exhange for Russell Martin and Adrian Gonzalez) for the experiment.

I'm happy to report that the jinx is working! Mr. Derek F. Jeter hit .158/.238/.158 over the last week and just .268/.349/.340 over the last month. Success would be sweeter if it wasn't at the expense of my Birds ... but it's for the greater good.

Hey Gwyn:

I have been trying to email you in regards to payment and joining the football league but keep getting bounce back messages like:

Unable to deliver message, storage allocation exceeded; or

Reject, id=23124-01-22 -SPAM

Anyway, I prepaid this season (and for a second team if someone could use the assistance) to Scott back in March and would like to join the Football league if any spots are still available.

Thanks, Jeff (Papayas)
