RE: Sunday Funday: December 7th 2025

in Reflections8 days ago

For all the Americans (and American football fans) out there enjoying Sunday Funday, Week 14 of the NFL season is typically the last week of the fantasy football regular season before a cut to a single-elimination playoffs.

How are your teams fairing this season?
Any big matchups you have you eyes on?

I wasn't very confident in either of my two fantasy drafts, but my teams have been rallying all season long and are in a good position to fight for a bye in the quarterfinals next week. Much credit is due to drafting the suspended Rashee Rice and being patient for the WR1 option to come back in Week 9. He's been well worth the wait and certainly my team MVP for the 2nd half of the season.

Here's my squad in my premium FF league with a bunch of my college buddies, a 3 keeper (on 3 year contracts), 12 team competion celebrating its 20th anniversary season. I started 3-4 and have won 8 straight matchups!

Here's my squad in the @splinterbowl FF league run by @bravetofu with a bunch of Splinterlands personalities and long-time battlemages. Again, nothing spectacular, but we've been grinding out wins with rookie RBs.

:D :D

I don't follow anymore, but I still hope the Redskins (I am not changing the name) will win again someday.

Shame my Broncos are not on local television. Instead, I am streaming the Magic the Gathering World Championship #31. Would be cool if we had a yearly Splinterlands world championship as well!

I wonder how many people would play as well live as they do online?

It is an interesting question to consider. When I played paper magic live in premium tournaments, I would be more focused than online, where I have so many distractions at home. Too many flees with many tabs open!

The one caveat is if I would get a feature match streamed on camera for Twitch at these magic tournaments. Those matches always felt a little more pressure-packed with an audience watching live as well as hundreds streaming at home. Sadly, I lost all four of my feature matches over the years in some pretty unfortunate circumstances. The streams typically come up on my 2nd page of Google results.

I feel there is a bit of "support" going on for some accounts, despite the ToS.
