Partly because this blog is apparently dead, and partly because I do not leave well enough alone, I pose this question to the league:
What should be our tie-breaker rules?
Situation 1: Two teams are tied going into the Championship Game or Toilet Bowl week.
Possible Tie-Breaker Solutions:
- Total Points
- Overall League Record (a.k.a. "Domination Record" as seen on the blog's "current standings" section, defined as: a team's record against every team in the league each week, as opposed to just their individual game's opponent)
- Record vs. opponent with whom the tie is held
Situation 2: Two teams tie in the Championship Game or Toilet Bowl
Possible Tie-Breaker Solutions:
- Substitute tie score for Optimal Score for that week
- Substitute tie score for Total Score (Starters+Bench) for that week
- Have the teams play each other in Week 16 to break the tie. (In which case we still need a tie-breaker solution in case of a second, though improbable tie game.)
- Teams share the title
Discuss.

Tie-breaking: Up for debate

Tie breaker should go to the team whose owner posted the pic of the sexiest cheerleader. This may also accomplish the task of reviving an apparently dead blog. Only downside might be having to talk to your employer's I.S. department for violating NSFW rules.
Otherwise, (1) Domination Record and (2) Optimal Score.
Tie breaker should be determined by 1) Domination Record, and 2) Record against opponent with which the tie exists.
Tie breaker should never be deterimined by optimal score because the point is the reward the selection of your starting lineup, not the fact that you drafted, traded, or waived well.
Blogging is dead...let's get back to letter writing or carrier pigeons (like the world's most interesting man).
