Third Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

[JenksAnejo]

Ah I shouldn't have let it come down to this. I lost to Steven in like week 3 or 4 by 5 points because I didn't start a flex or a kicker. That was my fault, just didn't have the time to fully participate like I did in baseball. Maybe I'll put up a better fight next year! Best of luck to the guys that made the playoffs!

PS Mark I have a nice T52 pig waiting for you to sit Shaun Green. Lol!

wow, this has been great to read this morning, thanks guys,sorry if cluttered the thread. I would have loved to see the weeks finals of the FF games while I was reading, but only as a entertainment purposes.

Come on Green tweak your toe and be out for the game!

It's sad that that could actually happen to these millionaires and they are out

Oh..and I applaud the fact that you are trying to make it look like you didn't buy Mark off!

[JenksAnejo]

Talk about coming down to the wire! 1 point separates us with 6:00 remaining.

[JenksAnejo]

Damn that reception does it.

[mkarnold1]

Yeah, I was joking about the bribe man. Tempting as a T52 pig is... Although young mr. Green did make it very interesting.

I texted with Jeremy this morning. He said he would send out the box to Scott (Sofaman) today, for sure, and that he sent this sticks for the buy in to Scott (Shilala) on Monday, so they should be getting there soon.

He also said that he probably wouldn't be taking anything from the pass this go around...things were crazy this past week for him.

Just wanted to give an update.

This ^^ is from the first post...and since this applies to me now, is this still applicable Scott? I'll prob lose this week anyway! lol

[shilala]

Absolutely, Cole. It usually works really good, too.
We generally have good competition in the loser's bracket, then I remember to send the cigars about 8 months later, right Matt?

HAHAHAHA, well if I win, I'll try my best to not let you forget

Yahoo only shows the teams 5-8 playing in the consolation bracket. Do you think we should include everyone (asked to everyone)? If so, how should we do scores?

Ideas:
-Top two teams (no head to head) from this week play next week for "winner of losers bracket"?
-Top two teams (no head to head, BUT, 5th place gets spotted 25 points, 6th, 20 points, 7th 15 points, 8th 10 points, 9th 5 points, 10th 0 points) gives everyone a chance at it?

Just trying to be fair and throwing out some ideas...what you all think?

If you guys want to do something outside of Yahoo! I can keep track of it...I think I am pretty good at that

Or we can leave it alone and let the head to head this week play out for teams 5-8 and then the winners play for the next round.

This is the best choice IMO. I hate getting (and giving) points in FF. It's already unpredictable enough that everyone has a good shot. Good call Cole.

Clearly faster than I would have...winning the loser's bracket is pretty sweet

Clearly!

[shilala]

I think it's a great idea to let all 6 teams in the loser's bracket in. I can't imagine there will be any argument, and that'd be cool to let Stephen and Jeremy in on the action.
You guys do whatever you want, I'm fine with it.

[JenksAnejo]

Oh I was too man, lol I would never cheat Scott out of a FF game like that.

[chaase321]

Is that a pnoon sighting! Damn...we almost got to 500 posts!

Ok, here is what I think we should do based on Mark's comment and to be as fair as possible.

all 6 consolation bracket teams are in a running at winning the bracket.

the 3 top scoring teams from this week (week 16) in the consolation bracket will move forward to next week's championship.

The top scoring team from next week (week17) will win the consolation bracket.

This eliminates 3 teams in week 16, and allows 3 chances at the winnings.

If no disagreement, I will keep track of this and post in the thread who moves on and who is out. Good luck to all!
