We only have two more weeks remaining in the regular season.

Two teams have clinched playoff spots:

13. New York's Finest 3-8

14. Oakwood Drivers 3-8

• After this week's penultimate slate of games, the final power rankings will be released. Following week thirteen, I will release a comprehensive quantified trade review, in which all thirty deals are graded and ranked for impact. 

• Then focus will turn to the playoffs: The winner's bracket leading to the LARKSPUR BOWL CHAMPIONSHIP, the consolation bracket dictating the top six picks in next year's draft. 

• Afterwards, the All-Larkspur game will take place in week 17: The Six Playoff teams will send their best lineup against the best players from the other eight teams. 

• I'll be updating the record book to account for 2013's best performances, archiving the weekly awards for the season, doling out LARKIES to all of the team managers, and naming the ALL-WIRE team, composed of the best players that were added via waivers and free agency.

• Finally, during the off-season I will archive this year's stats and prepare the website for next year's LARKSPUR BOWL.

ALRIGHT BOYS, HERE WE GO, 
HOLD ONTO YOUR BUTTS!
