Nice one SW, I can't complain really considering. Hopefully I can continue my climb now.

Annnnnd... yours still aren't in. Nor are Snowy's and ShyGuy's, with just under four hours to go.

Looks like its between me and SW for the win this week.. Tie breaker will be counted for this one too..

I still cant believe how the texans got beat.. very annoying!


ETA - maybe not between me and SW actually... I forgot its 2points for a correct pick so there are some other possibilities too.. good luck everyone

Yep. If Washington wins tonight, it will be a three-way tiebreaker week between MasterP, nax and SW. Otherwise a two-way tiebreaker between nax and SW.

I think I set a record for futility this week.

I got 3 right out of 13 so far! That's unbelievable.

This year there seems to be a lot of overtime games. I think I'm predicting about 3% of those games correctly.

In my old yahoo league, each person would get to throw out their worst week (or two weeks, sometimes).

Now I'm wishing we could do that.

Is it any consolation that you were the only one to even get *close* to the total points for MNF?

Re the red part above: I just looked, and PoolHost *does* allow us to decide to toss out x number of weeks (use only the y best weeks for each player). Is that something y'all would like to do? Can we get a consensus opinion on yea or nay, and if yea, how many of the 17 weeks we want to use (or how many we want to eliminate)?

Results for Week 10:
1. SW - 18 (tiebreaker)
2. Nax - 18
T3. e-sub, goodgirl - 16
T5. MasterP, Snowy, WD - 14
T8. cymbline, Lizzie, Shy - 12
T11. Daddy2, shewolf - 10
13. Raw - 8

Standings after 10 weeks:

1. SW - 186
2. MasterP - 174
T3. e-sub, shewolf - 168
5. naxalite - 164
T6. Daddy2, goodgirl, WD - 162
9. cymbline - 160
T10. ShyGuy, Snowy - 154
T12. Lizzie, Raw - 152

Don't forget that this week's deadline is 8:19 p.m. Eastern Time Thursday!

 

[goodgirlfl]

Thats fine with me as I've had a crappy pick week or two.

 

[naxalite0906]

Two weeks and two 2nds to SW... Ill get there one of these weeks. I'm easy with regards to removing a week or two. Personally I'd say one week max but I'll go with what everyone else thinks.

Even though I have had my share of bad weeks, I still don't mind if we let it ride and not remove any.

 

[RawHumor]

That's the one thing I've done pretty well on overall.

I'd ask to remove either one or two weeks, but I don't think that'll shake up the overall standings a whole lot.

 

[ecstaticsub]

Would throwing out a week really make any difference? I would say one week max if we do any at all. My preference would be to just keep it as is. We will all have a bad week now and again so I would think it would even out on it's own.

 

[ecstaticsub]

A reminder that the pick deadline is just 12 hours away.

(and yeah I know i haven't done my picks yet..I'm working on them )

I would be okay if we throw out one week.

 

[WriterDom]

Yeah, you can throw out my first week! But I don't really care one way or the other.

Guess I better get my picks in though.

 

[Lizzie_Borden]

I might get a chance to come last by less... so alright!

 

[WriterDom]

Da Bears!. Every time I pick against them, they kick ass. So I learned the hard way. I do like Jay.

 

[shewolf3003]

Discarding bad weeks

I really only play for just the fun of it. I will acquiesce to the desire of the many. I will submit to your wills.

 

[shewolf3003]

Yay.. I suck less this week!!!

 

[Sir_Winston54]

Yay.. I suck less this week!!!

Sucking less is a *good* thing?



Ohhhh... you mean at football...

 

[RawHumor]

I had a good week so far... but lost yet another game in overtime.

Gotta love how my Packers have been playing, though.
