Week 18 Wrap Up — One Week Left, Everything Jammed, Chaos Pending
One week remains in the regular season, and the cut line sits at 23 points — and just like every year, half the league is stacked on it like firewood.
At the top, Hunter & Jared sit at 40, still cruising like they’ve already picked out their championship shirts. Right behind them, Connor & Kelly and Scott & Brett are tied at 39, and here’s where things get spicy:
They play each other this week.
A winner take something matchup — bragging rights, momentum, maybe even the #1 seed depending on how the cards fall. Loser? They get to pretend they’re “saving it for playoffs.”
But that’s not the only marquee matchup…
Todd & Paul take on Hunter & Jared.
If FIGL history has taught us anything, it’s that Todd & Paul are fully capable of cutting the top team up like cord wood on any given Thursday. Will it happen? Probably not. Could it happen? Absolutely — and that’s why FIGL is FIGL.
Mark & Bill sit at 37, lurking like a shark waiting for someone above them to slip. Todd & Tracy and Sam & Dylan at 34 are still very much in the hunt.
The mid pack blender continues: Jim & Pete, Mike & Jim Boes, and Joe & Al at 31, Jim & Scott and Jake & Brad at 30, all one heater round away from flipping the playoff picture upside down.
Below the cut line, it’s survival mode: Tom & Randy at 26, Joe & Noah at 24, and a cluster of teams between 21–23 clawing for daylight. Todd & Paul at 21 — still swinging, still scheming, still capable of chaos.
Playoff Picture Update
The cut line is 23, and it’s jammed tighter than Pete’s excuses.
Tie breakers? Not yet — those come next week. So just worry about winning points… then it won’t come down to that. Or maybe it will??
And yes — Pete did not suck this week, but they still didn’t win. Even when he doesn’t suck… they still suck. FIGL math.
