Title: CC Pick 'em League
Post by: Odin's Hand on August 16, 2008, 11:09:57 AM
I am going to start a league, but, I just wanted to see if yall wanted to pick games straight-up or against the spread. I prefer against the spread, but, will comply with what the majority of the participants want.

You'll have a better shot of beating me with the spread option. Oh, who am I kidding? You have a better shot of beating me anyway.  :-)

As someone who may or (probably) may not join, I'd say "spread."

I guess we'll go with spread, then.

I was in 1st or 2nd the first 13 weeks last year. I was in 1st for 7 of those weeks. I ended up in 8th. It only takes one bad week.

Is it just me or does the league seem kinda wide open this year.  Especially with the injury to Brady.

Week 1 results...Yours truly :evillaugh: takes a small lead but is followed close behind by Tucker and Wiggum (where were you in the other league?).  :-) MIRCS (not sure who this is--sorry) missed this week but he gets a pass so it's still anyone's game!

Ralph managed to beat me in the fantasy league. :banghead:

He's lead the Fantasy Baseball league for months. I've decided that he is the Fantasy Sports king. I didn't even bother with Fantasy Football because I knew I would get whooped.

You didn't play the fantasy league because you knew you would lose, begs the question of why did you play the pick em league then. End results is gonna be the same. :evillaugh:

Just wait until the oddsmakers start getting a good feel for setting the spreads. It is going to get brutal.

I don't think so. I picked the Iggles and the points. :naughty: I picked the Cowboys in the no spread league. :-)

I think Odin set it up so the lowest point total for the week is dropped. Which means I am technically in first despite you, Tucker, having the most points overall!   :evillaugh:

This is the second week that I did not get my picks in by Thursday.

Had alot going on this week.

Jen, I see you missed a couple weeks also, hope everything is ok with you.

Post by: ReardenSteel on December 13, 2008, 01:11:49 PM
Well I farked up this week and didn't get my picks in so the top spot is up for grabs and I got my work cut out for me. Sigh!

The worst part is I missed the Thursday window by about 40 minutes.  :thatsright: :thatsright: :thatsright:

Cool. We both can improve in FF next season but we both should insist on playing the spread in pickem as we are both pretty good at it.

We need more players in the FF league though. 8 team minimum. The no cut players hurt me.
