The 28th Post Season is Here! 
A whole regular season came and went and this is the first time the frontpage changed. Thanks for your patience. The 8 teams that qualified for the playoffs all have a reason why they can win it all. The other 4 teams (Anaheim, Denver, Los Angeles, and Sterling Heights) are playing for pride. This will be the only time they are mentioned on this week's frontpage. The Chicago Triumph are the #1 seed and will be taking on the #8 North Dakota Nimrods. In their first game this year, Chicago took it 154-104 in week 2. It looks like a mismatch with the Triumph sporting a 11-3 record while the Nimrods are 6-8. Chicago looks to continue their dominant year as the league's highest scoring team with the league's highest scoring player, Joe Burrow. North Dakota may pull off the upset utilitzing their stout running game of Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson. The defending champion San Francisco Rattlesnakes are the #2 seed and will be facing the #7 San Diego Surge. Their previous matchup was a classic where San Francisco took it 112-109 in week 9. The Rattlesnakes somehow got to this point without their top 2 draft picks. They will be relying on Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard to get the job done. The Surge will ride or die with the success of their Arizona trio of Murray, Conner, and Harrison versus the Patriots. The Atlanta Jesters were the other divisional winner so they will be the #3 seed and will be battling the #6 Detroit Devils. The Jesters defeated the Devils 134-118 in week 2. Atlanta has the most exciting person in fantasy football and that is Lamar Jackson. He can run or throw and get multiple touchdown and bonuses in either catergory. The Devils have a bonafide winner in Patrick Mahomes who could be the difference maker to moving on. The Fort Wayne Pistons and Tampa Bay Blizzard will lock up in the 4/5 matchup. Fort Wayne took their previous encounter 127-102 in week 7. The Pistons are fully healthy and have been unstoppable with Joe Mixon and Nico Collins in the lineup. The Blizzard of course are trying to end the league's longest championship drought (24 years). If the Jets could fly (Adams and Wilson), then they will make a serious bid for hoisting the trophy.
