Team Tsunami Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Was just curious how many guys have ever run the table in their league. This is a 2 year old 12 team league with co-workers and its competitive, but not as much my big money league. Its just a first for me starting out 9-0, but I do play the next best team next week and their 8-1and I can get by them, I might just be able to run the table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpholmes Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 In BOTH AFL I went undefeated during the regular season last year (2nd year of the league) and lost to Zooty in the championship game. In other words, I pulled a Pats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muck Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 If you're 9-0 now, I'm going to guess that your all play record would have some losses. Let's guess that your all-play W/L is .700 ... So, if you have a 30% chance of losing any of your next four games, then your chance of losing at least one game from here on out is: X = 1 - [(1-30%)^4] = 76% chance ...or, you have a 24% chance of going undefeated...assuming that (i) your all play record is .700 and (ii) each of your next three opponents' all-play records are exactly .500 both currently and at the time you play them. If your all-play record is better/worse ... and/or your future opponents all-play records are either better or worse than this, it will impact the probability that you go undefeated. Good luck to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 I've been playing FF for 25 years, give or take... and I never saw a team run the table. I think it is a curse going into the playoffs undefeated, not just in FF but in the NFL as well. The odds are stacked against the perfect season.

damageinc Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 One year I lost game 1 and went undefeated the rest of the way to the championship. Been in a league 12 years and only once did a dude get close. He was 12-0 and lost the last game of the season to go 12-1. He made it to the championship but lost. Its very hard to do.

Rovers Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Redraft or Dynasty? But yes, I think you're right about the odds. Redraft only until about 5 years ago. Doesn't seem to matter, although I have seen some dynasty league teams with IDP have a better shot at it. But, I'm not Henry Muto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splotchman Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 i went 15-0 and lost in the championship game the year LT set the TD record. I also had Gore the year he first blew up along with some stacked receivers. When LT was scoring 4 TDs per game every week it was hard to lose. Then got chumped in the championship when he failed to score a single TD I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalEmpire.com Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 We had a guy in our league last year (two years ago?) go undefeated until the championship game and also blew it. Best part was that he talked smack the entire year about being perfect, then the playoff champ made a bunch of PhotoShop images of 3rd-world refugees wearing "Needabuzz 2009 Super Bowl Champs". I think the source photos were actual 3rd worlders wearing the Patriots Perfect Season Super Bowl Champs tees. It was hilarious and we still post the photo every time he starts talking about how he went the season undefeated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Tsunami Posted November 10, 2009 Author Share Posted November 10, 2009 Good stuff, but thats why i'm talking about it now so maybe I'll can just jinx myself before the play-offs and lose that one game...because to me that would suck to run the table and then lose in the championship game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
