A CHAMPION IS CROWNED...IS A DYNASTY BORN?

It's going to be a very Merry Christmas indeed for the citizens of Morlock Nation.  The winners of their second C-Cup in two years, Morlock Nation cruised to an easy victory over defending champion Shake and Bake.  By 4:00 on Sunday, the rest of the games were just a formality and a new dynasty is on the verge of being born.  Of course, being able to grab Jamaal Charles with the number three pick helped, Morlock Nation orchestrated the waiver wire like an accomplished maestro, picking up Phillip Rivers and Alshon Jeffery.  And to anyone that finds themselves dismayed with an 8-5 wildcard team winning the most prized trophy in all of sports, consider this.  The two of the three highest scoring teams went head to head in the finals and four of the top five scoring teams made it to the semi-finals.  In short, the best teams played each other and no one can argue that Morlock Nation wasn't the best of the best.  Congratulations Morlock Nation, and thank you for bringing the C-Cup back to the its rightful home at the high school.

OH HOW THE MIGHTY HAVE FALLEN

So let me tell you a story about a man so excited to be one of the top seeds in the HHSFFL Playoffs that he ran into the gym...in the middle of a try out...on cut day...gave a hyena-like laugh, and awkwardly ran out about as fast as he could.  Well, Karma is a sultry bitch.  The first playoff appearance by the Little Giants had a Good vs. Evil feel to it ever since the final standings were set.  It was David vs. Goliath.  It was the 2001 Superbowl, where, as Mr. Kraft so eloquently stated, "Tonight, we are all Patriots."  Well, last weekend, we were all Little Giants.  And this Cinderella story isn't over yet.  America loves an underdog and fans all across the HHSFFL are jumping on the Little Giants bandwagon.  Here's to hoping they can get two more wins before the clock strikes midnight.

WEEK 12 POWER RANKINGS

WEEK EIGHT POWER RANKINGS 

1. Kearney Vores - You need to get up pretty early in the morning to beat the Kearney Vores...literally.  He gets up at 4:45 every Wednesday to clean up anyone that cleared waivers.  
2. Shake & Bake - Padding their stats against the JV division.
3. Green Monster - Sometimes the best strategy is to get lucky as all hell with your weekly match ups.  
4. Morlock Nation - If one team gets lucky with match ups, that means someone gets the shaft.  
5. TMIFFTITW - I have to admit...I had a bad feeling about my season when they took Reggie Bush with pick 17.  I'm not bitter or anything though.
6. Bayside High Tigers - No one achieves mediocrity like this bunch.
7. Mean Machine - This team inspires less confidence than the owners wardrobe.
8. Mad Men - Crippled by injuries, toughest schedule in the league, still hanging on to the 8th playoff spot.
9. Little Giants - No one was angrier about that tie last week.
10. Forgotten Gods - By my fake, pretend, gorilla math...this team is officially out of the playoffs.
11. Morlock Nation - A master of the waiver wire and scratching himself.
12. Necessary Roughness - Hey, remember that 147 points in week one?  Because no one else does.
13. Kane is Able - Cursed from draft day...sooner or later we all learn to steer clear of QB6.
14. Vandalay Industries - T-Rich is in the running for Biggest Bust of the Year 
15. Hawkeye Nation - Rebuilding years are tough...especially in non-keeper leagues.
16. Cobra Kai Dojo - Don't worry...it will all be over soon.
