The Commish Report: Week 13

Merry Christmas Sports Fans!

Every Christmas season I like to catch a live holiday show. Last year, Katie and I went to the world famous Kaufman opera house to watch The Nutcracker. We dressed up, drank wine, it was very fancy pantsy. Last night, I took her to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra which is basically the Monster Truck Rally of Christmas shows. Gotta admit, I had a blast, but I think I got whiplash from the culture swing. Lights, Lasers, Smoke, Fireballs, Marching Nutcrackers, Dragons, Helicopters, Big Hair, Tigers.... it was the birth of Jesus, just like the Bible depicted it. It was awesome.


College Football season is winding down and I gotta say good riddance. The Ducks are awful, Chip Kelly is not walking through that door. With Ohio State and Alabama locked in as our title game I'm basically rooting for a stadium collapse, smushing both teams. haha "smush". The only way I would watch the College Football Playoffs is if they tossed Michigan back in to face Ohio State and we added the Cleveland Browns as the fourth seed to see what happens.

This is the final round of regular season games. My mom broke my heart last week with the come from behind win, officially knocking me into the shameful world of mathematically eliminated. I'm already planning my 2017 draft so lets just get on to this week's games (3-3 last week. Shane's fault)

MATCHUP OF THE WEEK!!!! Evil Shenanigans vs. GlassCaseOfEmotion: Ha! Just kidding. $%#^ This season. Maybe I go out with a win?

The Real MATCHUP OF THE WEEK!!!! Devonta Freeman vs DOGS RUNNING WILD: The year is 2007. The place, Ashland Oregon. Eric and I are sitting around a table at Creekside Pizza, probably enjoying a slice of Pep with a cold blue AMF. I mention that I want to start a Fantasy Football league and he's down to play. Later we go to Vinyl club and dance around like drunk idiots to "Crank That" by Soulja Boy. ALMOST A DECADE LATER.... Eric is on the verge of his very first Playoff appearance. The promise land! And he's a 2nd seed! First week BYE!!! The only thing standing in his way? My moms. Should he lose, he could potentially fall completely out of the playoffs. Will this be the greatest season of E's career OR his most heartbreaking finale yet? I believe. I believe in E. This is his moment. The world is yours young man. E wins by 9pts.

Live Look at Kim's Team against Shane
Speedo's and Nair vs Victorious Secret: The 2016 regular season ends with a rematch of the 2015 title. Would be a great matchup if Shane's team wasn't already folding like dogs from injuries. Snead? Hunter Henry? Smallwood? Who are these players!? The only guys missing from this lineup are Shane Falco and Uncle Rico. Meanwhile, Kimmie's team keeps feeding Zeke and she was quick to grab waiver wire gem Tyreek Hill, who's been beating coverage lately like he beat his pregnant college Girlfriend in 2015 (people don't forget!). But we all know Kimmie won't let "character flaws" stop her from returning to post season glory (See: Kaepernick, Colin) and I just don't see Dennis Pitta exploding for 15pts this week. Kimmie wins handily this week, but at what price?

MakeDallasGreatAgain vs The Hard Gronk Out of the Season: Beginners luck continues to plague this league with Hiro in position to make the playoffs in her rookie season. This is basically a March Madness play-in game where the winner punches their ticket with a win to only get absolutely humiliated by North Carolina Duke in the first round. I still maintain Steve has the best running back combo in the league but they rarely get on the same page in the same week. Between that and playing the Kaepernick card, I clearly cannot choose the wine in front of me. I'll take Hiro to win and continue the beginners luck streak in the league. Katie wins by one Dez Bryant touchdown you...one he actually caught.

The Naughty Nurse vs the Dirty Mexican: No team has been more all over the place than Annes. She's scored over 140pts twice, she has failed to break 100 seven times. Meanwhile, the Mexican has been the model of consistency. He's up at 5am each day and my front lawn looks perfect by 9am. Anne's got some sweet matchups this week with her boys facing the defensive likes of detroit, indy and Houston. But Casey's cardinals are playing against the lowly Washington Redskins, at home. The world expect that game to be a complete shootout and Casey has hedged his bets appropriately. The Mexican wins again this week and continues to be the favorite to win it all.

TDs and Beer vs BRFs: Current projections has Mike scoring a gentleman's 105 points and Staci scoring an astounding 66 points after the FOUR Cowboys on her team scored a combined 18 points. Ouch. TDs are bigger than ever this week, wins by bunches.

Hope you guys have fun at Pizza Schmedisha (sp?) today and big congrats to those who partook in the Reindeer Games Crossfit competition this past weekend. Did Casey DJ while still being drunk from the night before again? That silly Mexican. He can't stay sober.

Now I have a Machine gun. Ho. Ho. Ho.
