Ping Pong Ball Update
First off, clearly this did not happen yesterday. But it's going to happen right now.
Second, either I missed this before or Random.org changed some things. So now I can give it a list of names to randomize and not just numbers, so instead of giving it numbers 1 - 42 then translating that into people I'm going to give it team names with those names repeated the appropriate number of times.
So, here's what I will give it:

FLOF Draft Ping Pong Ball Count
With FLOF Bowl 18 behind us we look forward to next year's draft. Here are the ping-pong ball distribution for the draft lottery. I'll do the lottery Wednesday.
Remember that this season we changed the ping pong ball distribution to include both power rankings and record. So, the season's worst record gets 6 balls and the season's worst power ranking gets 6, etc.
Non-playoff teams by record:
Old No. 7: 6-8, 1 ball
Bill: 5-9 and beat Camp Adventure in the regular season, 2 balls
Camp Adventure: 5-9, 3 balls
Bronies: 4-10, split the season series with Wolfpack, 2-4 in the division, 4 balls
Wolfpack: 4-10, 1-5 in the division, 5 balls
Mimes: 2-12, 6 balls
by Power ranking:
Old No. 7: 95.14, 1 ball
Wolfpack: 94.07, 2 balls
Camp Adventure: 93.93, 3 balls
Bronies: 91.36, 4 balls
Bill: 82.21, 5 balls
Mimes: 73.00, 6 balls
Total:
Old No. 7: 1+1 = 2
Camp Adventure: 3+3 = 6
Bill: 2+5 = 7
Wolfpack: 5+2 = 7
Bronies: 4+4 = 8
Mimes: 6+6 = 12
So, when I do the drawing tomorrow the following teams will have the balls labeled...
Old No. 7: 1 and 2
Camp Adventure: 3 through 8
Bill: 9 through 15
Wolfpack: 16 through 22
Bronies: 23 through 30
Mimes: 31 through 42

Drow Defense Wins FLOF Bowl 18
Dan Herron and Aaron Rodgers added to Jonathan Stewart's start to outplay the Drow offense 62 points to 55 even with no help from Michael Floyd and missing a WR. But Jamie Collins, Bobby Wagner, and Patrick Chung added to James Ihedigbo's good start on defense to combine for 36 tackles and 57 points while the Redneck D had weak performances from everyone but C.J. Mosley and came up with only 15 combined points.
The win makes it 3 FLOF Bowl wins in a row for Drow and 4 over all. For Rednecks it was their 5th FLOF Bowl loss -- remembering that only one other team has even made 5 FLOF Bowls.

FLOF Bowl Halftime Report
After the first weekend of results Jonathan Stewart and C.J. Mosely have provided nearly all of Rednecks' scoring. James Ihedigbo and Tony Romo lead the Drow scoring. But neither team had someone explode this weekend so its likely about who will play next weekend.
Rednecks will field Aaron Rodgers, one of their kickers, and a RB not named Le'Veon Bell. Drow will counter with Randall Cobb, Steve Smith, Jamie Collins, Bobbie Wagner, and a DB.
Both teams had star players out due to injury this week and left roster spots open hoping that Bell (for Rednecks) and A.J. Green for Drow would be able to play this next weekend. But neither Pittsburgh nor Cincinnati won so now both teams look to their benches. Rednecks will chose between Dan Herron, LaGarrettee Blount, and Trent Richardson. I would assume Herron gets the start. Drow have Steve Smith left to fill in for A.J. Green.
Drow effectively have a 19 point lead and will mostly be hoping that their defense and Randall Cobb can hold off Aaron Rodgers.
