Cuban Linx Posted July 29, 2006 Report Posted July 29, 2006 I'd like to see Bravesfan's old pick'em contest come back in addition to the kkkbowl, particularly since i think i won it the last time it was done.
Steve J. Rogers Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 OK, here's a question for those without a team. If I were to have a regular "pick 'em" contest where everyone that doesn't have a team just submit picks and a running total/cumulative score is kept (think Bravesfan's old contest), would there be any takers? Ever since Bravesfan ditched his contest there hasn't been someone to pick up the slack. I could go for that
starvenger Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 I'm back for another beating this year. EPs will be PM'ed shortly...
Gert T Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 I'll be back as the Jets and try to re-claim the glory days. KKK I'll PM the picks later.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted July 30, 2006 Author Report Posted July 30, 2006 I've now added another list in my first post with names of people that don't have a team but expressed interest in just picking games. If you'd be interested in this and do not have a team give a shout-out in this thread. Please note I would be using point spreads for the overall pick 'em contest, too.
Lightning Flik Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 Hey, Triple K. I'd just like to let it be known that if possible, I'd like back into my old division. So I'd like the Panthers. I know there's 3 people ahead of me who'd get to choose an unused team before me, but if I can't have my Falcons (and I know I won't be able to), I'd at least like to be the guy crushing them on my way to a division title.
Guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 I'd let you have the Falcons if I could have the Bengals or Cowboys.
starvenger Posted July 31, 2006 Report Posted July 31, 2006 I'm also willing to switch from Tampa to not-Tampa...
kkktookmybabyaway Posted August 1, 2006 Author Report Posted August 1, 2006 Assuming Carlos=Banky: If you were in last year's contest, maxed out your emergency picks, and want another chance, I'm not going to consider your entry request until after August 24 when all vets and n00bs have a chance to join.
Annabelle Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Assuming Carlos=Banky: If you were in last year's contest, maxed out your emergency picks, and want another chance, I'm not going to consider your entry request until after August 24 when all vets and n00bs have a chance to join. oh c'mon. i had other issues i had to deal with away from the comp. ultimately, i ended up forgetting. if i intentionally depended solely on ep i wouldn't try again this year.
Guest Smues Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Isn't Smues the Raiders now? who? Just some loser I think.
Annabelle Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Isn't Smues the Raiders now? who? Just some loser I think. so can i have the raiders, please?
Guest Smues Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Nah, me being a loser fits perfectly with the Raiders right now.
Annabelle Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Nah, me being a loser fits perfectly with the Raiders right now. fuuuuuuck you're not a loser. i didnt see this until it was too late. dang. hopefully you'll wanna change yer mind.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted August 3, 2006 Author Report Posted August 3, 2006 The last few posts just gave me an idea. I will be doing the two different contests -- a league pick 'em and a cumulative "league" (think of what Bravesfan used to do). There will be a pseudo-twist to the cumulative contest. The poster with the best score of that contest who doesn't have a team in the other league will get first dibs at any available franchise in Season V. The person with the second-best score will have second dibs, etc.
BX Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 I want the Cowboys, and will kill Marvin if neccessary.
HarleyQuinn Posted August 14, 2006 Report Posted August 14, 2006 I'd be willing to join the cumulative league if there are openings or whatever.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 I want the Cowboys, and will kill Marvin if neccessary. No killing necessary if I can have the Ravens..ahem.. I had totally forgotten about the fact I was the cowboys..
kkktookmybabyaway Posted August 25, 2006 Author Report Posted August 25, 2006 This year's league is set. Good luck to everyone, except nl-asshole, of course. I hope he tears his ACL and trades a first-round pick away for Marshall Faulk.
Lightning Flik Posted August 26, 2006 Report Posted August 26, 2006 Aw man, the 49ers? ...dammit. I just had to get the 49ers of all teams. *sigh* *quickly realizes I'm lucky to get a team* Oh! I'm so happy to get the 49ers! Yes, I don't hate being the 49ers at all~! Gore all the way! Wooo! Go Alex Smith! Davis will kill you all~!!!
HarleyQuinn Posted September 1, 2006 Report Posted September 1, 2006 Hey, Triple K... For the cumulative league (non team), how do the picks work? Is it a week by week send in?
kkktookmybabyaway Posted September 1, 2006 Author Report Posted September 1, 2006 The cumulative league will work the same way as the team league. I'll be using the same point spreads as the team league and you'll just send in your picks (I don't see a need to PM cumulative league picks. I'm debating whether to keep the two leagues under the same deadline or not. I'm going to make two threads for Week 1, so people who don't normally view my pick 'em league will have a chance to participate in the cumulative league, then I'll just merge the two threads every week thereafter. I guess the only difference will be the cumulative league people won't need to submit a TB score. I'll also include all the team league picks in the cumulative league, sans EPs.
HarleyQuinn Posted September 3, 2006 Report Posted September 3, 2006 Week 1 Pittsburgh Atlanta Tampa Bay New England Cincinnati Denver Cleveland N.Y. Jets Philadelphia Seattle Chicago Dallas San Francisco N.Y. Giants Minnesota San Diego - A few possible upsets in there, hope they pan out like I see them happening.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted September 3, 2006 Author Report Posted September 3, 2006 Week 1 threads are up. Can a mod please close this thread?
