The competition for the Starbucks gift card is heating up! Brother steps on brother and JY destroys what's left of Biggie's pride as he walks over him--- Okay, enough joking around. We're in the big money rounds and we need a legit prediction for the playoffs. The problem is, I'm still in it. This means that it's hard for me to be impartial. So let's do the second Quick Hits of the season and throw out some facts and figures to let you, the reader, come to a conclusion.
- In their first meeting, Simon outscored Dan by 14.4. In the second meeting, Dan beat Simon by 14.04. They average over 100 ppg when they play each other so stay tuned for a high-scoring showdown.
- Simon and Dan were the number 2 and number 3 scoring teams in the league, respectively.
- Simon has lost 2 of his last 3, slumping as he enters the playoffs. He didn't even score 50 points during his bye week.
- Dan scored a week high 144.06 last week (for teams whose scores counted) and his top RB has a great matchup against the Falcons.
- Cho has won 4 of his last 5, including his first round thrashing of Nelson.
- Eric had a cold streak from week 9-11, losing 3 in a row, but he picked up 2 wins at the end of the season to secure the bye. He averaged 120+ ppg in the last two and had 147.52, the second highest score overall last week, falling less than a point behind Mike's ridiculous score.
- In their only meeting this season, Eric was one of those teams that destroyed Cho. He beat him by over 50 points and at the time, he shoved Cho under .500 on the season, making his climb to the playoff that much harder.
- Cho and Dan have never won the finals.
- Cho was one of my two predicted players to win the whole thing this year (Nelson being the other. Sorry, Nelson).
- Simon and Eric have both won, 2010 and 2012 respectively.
- All four are part of the original 8 that have been in this fantasy league since Simon Kim began his term as commissioner.
Good luck to all!
Simon Kim
