Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum
If you want peace, prepare for war!
Where to begin. With the closing of Week 13, the 2014 regular season is now over. The dust has settled. The chips have fallen. The Jed's fireballs have been eaten. DeAndre Hopkins has finally stopped catching footballs.
As the blood of the martyred fish fertilizes the Ohio soil, you can hear the effervescent sound of champagne in New York City. The Baby Seal, through Tony's benevolence, is back in the Playoffs. Of course, Andrew is not alone.
5 other teams will challenge him for the title. Some will be playing for their first Brown Jacket (Sean who has a BYE, Andrew & Squid), others, to add another star to the jackets they already own (Del who has a BYE, Parker & Tits). But beyond the jackets, stars and the cash lies glory, eternal and irrevocable.
Week 13 was dramatic and in some places, bibulous. It was great, in the face of Billgate, to see the participation on wechat. Meanwhile, El Clasico didn't disappoint and Sean broke the single week scoring record that has been held by Parker for over 3000 days. But, today no longer has time for reflection. It’s now about the final 6 and their battle to be crowned the 2014 DelFL Champion.
Good luck to you all, especially myself, and may the best man win.
**Special thanks to everyone once again for playing this year. I hope you feel the DelFL is still a fun league that you wish to play in for many years to come. For those of you not in the Playoffs, don’t forget to sign up for the Bowl Pickem Tournament.
