"I was stunned that she risked serious breach of Karma by taking the Pats," the Commish said. ""it has been an underdog playoffs and to abandon them at the last minute after they had been so good for her I thought callous at best. But the exquisite irony of her losing the Chappie by the underdog winning is truly a hoot."
Live by the underdog, die by the underdog, it would seem.
Omaha did the league a service by publishing his unofficial, but very accurate results. It is initiative like this that almost makes me forget what a scurrilous scoundrel he is. Perhaps he should take over the stats next season for a while to make sure someone knows how to do it. I will mention this to the Commish.
Omaha couldn't do a good deed, however, without once again attacking the Commish, throwing baseless aspersions on his picks. He intimated that the Commish copied his picks for the superbowl just as he has intimated the Commish has copied others picks throughout the season. It seems, according to Omaha, that the Commish copies different people's picks every week. T
his ignores that fact that every week people have identical picks just by chance. It also ignores the fact that on the Conference Finals weekend, he could have stayed ahead of Jo by copying her picks. He didn't because he makes his picks based upon who he thinks will win the game, not how others are picking.
Perhaps Omaha would use the position to copy others, seeing as he seems obsessed with the idea that the Commish is doing just that. Burglars fear people stealing from them the most, and all that. Just by definition, the Commish didn't lead the league in weekly wins by copying other people's picks. He couldn't accumulate more points than anyone else so often by copying other's picks.
By the way, the Commish set a record for total points in a season. His 223 edged out Jo's 221 from last season. Check out the league records page on the tab at the top of the blog to see who holds the other records.
