Week 11: Barrels, Distillers clinch playoff berths

Congrats to the Barrels and Distillers on becoming the first Finks League teams to clinch playoff berths. The Barrels moved ahead of Khans with a 37-28 victory over the Sharks.

The Distillers own a four-game lead over third place Tale with four weeks remaining, but own the head-to-head tiebreaker with a season sweep. Distillers won in Week 11, 63-17, over Quags.

In another note, Newt picked up his first win of the season to avoid tying the league's 11-game losing streak set last year by Pink Poodle. Where as Poodle didn't always try to win games last year, the agony might have been tougher for the usually competitive Newt.

In the coming weeks, Khans from the Favre Division and Eggers from the Marino Division will attempt to close in on playoff berths of their own.

Week 10 report

Sent in by Barrels owner Chris Traczek: "After the early games, it looked like the Barrels were headed for defeat as Cincinnati's Dalton-to-Green Hail Mary pass on the final play of regulation gifted the Khans an additional 11 points and gave them a 48-25 lead heading into the late action. The Barrels were able to forge a tie, however, thanks to Demaryius Thomas' 3 receiving TDs and 104 receiving yards, then established their 7-point margin of victory courtesy of Garrett Hartley's 7 PATs in the Saints' demolition of the Cowboys on Sunday night."

Wanberg posted his first blog entry earlier this week and it's not about fantasy football. I invite you to check it out here.

As D.J. explains: "Some of you might have already seen this on Facebook or will see this on Facebook. I have started a blog. It's called "As The D.J. Turns" and deals with sports, movies, television and the media in general. It's something I have wanted to do for a long time.
