GFFL BOWL VI
Do you believe in miracles?! Nope not quite from the Unbeaten Gators who lost to the 5th seeded Carolina Falcons in the divisional round.
So now the next thing to do is say congratulations to the 2. Kings and the 5. Carolina Falcons on making the GFFL BOWL. It's a heck of an accomplishment as only 7 different teams have made it here in six seasons. As for these two teams this is the Carolina Falcons 3rd GFFL BOWL appearance tieing the Unbeaten Gators' record for championship appearances. If they win they'd be the first to win three GFFL BOWL Championships. The Kings are making their 2nd appearance and haven't been here since GFFL BOWL I.
The GFFL BOWL party is next week as well as the draft lottery.
My pick in the title game Carolina Falcons.
Championship Facts
-No team has ever won without coming into the championship game with a top 10 back..The Carolina Falcons boast Charles(4th) and Turner (8th) and the Kings have McFadden(4th) and Jones-Drew(10th)
- The lowest seed to win the title is the 4 seeded 2009 Weiner Dogz.
- 137 points is the highest score of a championship game ever. It was posted by the 2006 U.Gators against the Rockets.
- 2 seeds are 2-1 in GFFL BOWLS the only lost coming from the Kings franchise
- The Carolina Falcons are the first 5 seed to make the GFFL BOWL
- The Carolina Falcons are 2-0 in GFFL BOWLS winning GFFL BOWL III and GFFL BOWL IV
- Wildcard teams are 2-1 in GFFL BOWLS.

THE FINAL FOUR
One step closer to GFFL BOWL VI.
Wildcard Round in review (focusing on ousted team)..
6. Weiner Dogz (8-6) AT 3. Ducks (9-5)
The defending champions are knocked off by one of their biggest rivals by strong performances by E.Manning and Witten. The Weiner Dogz have become the first champion ever not to repeat a streak that was bound to come to an end. At the end of the day the Weiner Dogz still remain one of only three franchises with GFFL BOWL Championships and have strong keeper options and a good amount of draft picks so they should be able to be right back in the thick of it in 2011.
5. Carolina Falcons (8-6) AT 4. Panthers (11-3)
A pretty big upset led by Manningham and Charles sent the Panthers packing. In any other division they are in the final four with a bye right now with that 11-3 record. Still an unbelievable season by the Panthers with renewed effort from owner Mike Gibson. A team many thought would win the whole thing is still set up for a great future in 2011 with a whole draft great keeper options and the 8th pick in the first round. They fell short of their ultimate goal but still a season to be proud of.
Now we move on to the Final Four congratulations to those that made it. One more win earns a trip to GFFL BOWL VI so don't let up now.
5. Carolina Falcons (8-6) AT 1. Unbeaten Gators (12-2)
Two of the GFFL's all time greats meet here in the divisonal round. This is nothing new they've met in the divional round in '06, GFFL BOWL III, and the '08 divisional round too. The C.Falcons hold a 2-1 post season edge against the U.Gators. Throw the records out though this game means the difference between a berth in GFFL BOWL VI. Both of these teams are looking for an unprecedented 3rd GFFL Bowl Championship it will be interesting to see who comes out of this one. I won't make a prediction on my own game but this should be a great one.
3. Ducks (9-5) AT 2. Kings (9-5)
How do they do it? The Ducks have made three consecutive Final Fours and are the only returning member from last years Final Four. In a year where many thought the Ducks team would fall out and was definitely the worst playoff team to make it have found a way into the Final Four yet again. The craziest thing is they actually have a shot at pulling off the upset and making their 2nd trip to the GFFL Bowl. I say this because the Kings are extremely banged up not only did they lose Gore earlier they've now lost their 2nd best receiver Owens and stud tight end Gates. Even worse news there are no replacement receivers on the roster meaning the waiver wire is their only option and there's only trash there. This team is being held together with duct tape. They should still be favored over the Ducks but this one is going to be a close one and heck I'm not gonna pick a winner in this one either but dont sleep on this game.
This 2010 season has been amazing and the playoffs are looking to be no let down.

Record Breakers
The Unbeaten Gators (1458) shattered the Carolina Falcons(1348) record for points in a season. Also passing that record were the Panthers (1403). The U.Gators and Panthers now occupy four of the top five spots on the most points in a season record.
In the same season the points record was shattered the least points in a season was squeaked out by the Copperheads (940) three points less than the 2009 C.Falcons (943). The Heels also have earned a spot with 993 bad enough for fourth all time. The Ducks also made the list at number 5 all time with 1032.
The U.Gators (12-2) and Panthers (11-3) have both made their way onto the best records of all time. The U.Gators now own the top 3 records of all time 14-1 2005, 12-1-1 2007 and now 12-2 2010.
The Pirates and I.Classics both 3-11 have tied for 3rd worst record of all time.
The Panthers 7 game win streak has placed them 5th all time on regular season win streaks and total win streaks. He needs to win out then win his first game in 2011 to tie the U.Gators longest total win streak of 11.
Of course this year we have to break records on both ends of the spectrum. The Pirates losing 8 in a row finished 3rd all time on regular season losing streak and are currently tied 3rd all time in total losing streaks. If he can lose his first two games in 2011 he will tie the all time record of the '09 Average Joes

How the other half lives
For those of you missing out on the playoffs, there's still a lot to look forward to besides watching your new champion be crowned. It is now the offseason for you the time where you can change your team from missing the playoffs to GFFL BOWL Contender (Kings,Panthers, and C.Falcons all missed the playoffs in 2009). So let's take a look at who will have the best odds at holding that number one pick in the 2011 draft.
The lottery will be held championship week the worse you are the better your chances.
*Rayz have better chance than Classics due to Classics beating Pirates 103-102 in their only meeting.
2011 GFFL DRAFT LOTTERY CHANCES (27 helmets in the box)
1. Rayz 5-9 (via Pirates 3-11) - 9 helmets in the box or a 33% chance
2. Instant Classics 3-11 - 7 helmets in the box or a roughly 26% chance (combined has a 44% chance at securing the top pick in the draft)
3. Instant Classics 3-11 (via Copperheads 4-10) - 5 helmets or a roughly 19% chance
4. Copperheads 4-10 (via Rayz 5-9) - 3 helmets or a roughly 11% chance (combined has a 15% chance at top pick)
5. Heels 5-9 - 2 helmets or a roughly 7% chance
6. Copperheads 4-10 (via Purple Cobras 7-7) - 1 or a roughly 4% chance
The Purple Cobras do not have a 1st round pick and the Pirates have the Kings 1st round pick

2010 GFFL BOWL PLAYOFF IS SET
The playoffs are finally set after one of the best regular seasons I've experienced in a while. Two division races were decided in the last week as well as one playoff spot was up for grabs, but now we finally have the six teams that will be battling it out to go to GFFL BOWL VI.
6. Weiner Dogz 8-6 AT 3. Ducks 9-5
The defending champion Weiner Dogz have squeaked into the playoffs as the sixth seed. Coming off back to back losses and with some of her players looking a little shaky(Forte,Bowe) it would take a lot of magic to have another championship run, but a match up with the Ducks is a step in the right direction.
The Ducks winners of the Central Division by default do not have a playoff roster. You could argue this roster may be the worst in the league featuring no runningback stud, no receiver stud, and now with the Rodger's injury maybe no quarterback stud.
I don't see the winner of this match up getting past the divisional round but stranger things have happened and they both have GFFL BOWL experience. I say the Ducks get revenge after last year's ousting from the Weiner Dogz. The Ducks advance to play the 2. Kings in the divisional in a nail biter.
5. Carolina Falcons 8-6 AT 4. Panthers 11-3
The Carolina Falcons, winners of GFFL BOWL III and GFFL BOWL IV, are back in the playoffs after a one year hiatus and have some good key components in Brees, Turner, and Charles. Definitely a top four team in the league but they are matched up with a juggernaut in round 1.
The Panthers, runner up in GFFL BOWL II, are possibly the best team in the league featuring a very complete line up top to bottom. Any other division they would be sitting in the divisional round on a bye but occupying the same division as the U.Gators has placed them in this wildcard round.
The Carolina Falcons are a good team but the Panthers have too much fire power and will take this one in a very good match up. If my predictions are correct they will go on to play the 1. U.Gators in the divisional round, the top team in the league, but a team the Panthers are 2-0 against this season.
BYES: 1. U.Gators 12-2 and 2. Kings 9-5
