Five months after we initially embarked on this crazy endeavor, the NFL season and, as a result, Bet the Farm is coming to an end. But there’s still plenty of competition to be had. So let’s review the rules for our special playoff contest one last time:

- Each week we’ll list the current point spread and total for each playoff game when this goes live. Those are the spreads/totals everybody will use for their picks that week, no matter when they pick (even if the spreads/totals change officially).
- You must make one wager on each playoff game. You can wager either the spread or total, but not both, for any single game. You must bet every single game during the postseason.
- You get one point for each Wild Card and Divisional Round game you guess correctly, two points for each correct Conference Championship Game, and four points for the Super Bowl. However, you will make each of these wagers the week of that specific game.
- Once during the playoffs, you may identify one game as your “lock.” If you get that game right, you get two extra points. You only get one lock for the entire playoffs, so the maximum final point total is 18.
- You can jump in at any time (even now), just try to use the same handle throughout the entire playoffs.

Well here we are; week 17, the last coup de grace for a few of you, and for others, the Holy Grail of eternal survival and a suicide championship belt.  For many of us (me included), the year ended early with a bucket full of shame.  Again, how in the world has Arizona gone from a strong contender early on to the weakest of pretenders later on?  For some of you, the loss came in the middle of the season, raising your hopes just enough to curse your losing choice for a few weeks thereafter.  And for another select few, the season has boiled down to these last two weeks, creating stress levels beyond the reading ability of the stress test machine.  No matter what category you fall in, all we can hope for is that we don’t need too much therapy and rehabilitation at season’s end.  However, as always, it’s been a fun ride on the rollercoaster that is the National Football League.

It started off as a simple idea. We thought to ourselves ‘man, we have a lot of writers this year. Why don’t we all start a league together? Wouldn’t that be fun?’. And then a few weeks passed. And then a few more. And then a week before the season started we thought to ourselves ‘man, we have a lot of writers this year. Why don’t we all start a league together? Wouldn’t that be fun?’. Only the second time we followed through and in the end, twelve Razzball writers entered the yahoo league and only one left the victor. For your reading pleasure, we bring to you the Razzball Writers League that was, in their own words…

What do Kevin Kolb, Brandon Weeden, Charlie Batch, Nick Foles, and Ryan Lindley have in common?  They are all signs that the apocalypse is coming. I kid, I kid.  They have all sent me defeats in the 2012 NFL season.  Just goes to show you that this game we call American Football is one wild and wacky creation.  I have yet to start my Christmas shopping, so to avoid buying everyone very personal gift cards, I will do my best to be short yet sweet with my week 16 selections.
