ESPN Gridiron Playoff

[Ming]

Yep... I held on to first place, but not by much
Berz easily won the week with 112 points and closed to within 3 of me.
Sloww had a decent week with 93, The Big Gostkowski had 84, and I had 82. Everybody else pretty much sucked and had scores in the 60's.

CURRENT STANDINGS

RNK ENTRY, OWNER WC
1 Mingapulcos, C. Ming 180 - 82 = 262
2 Berzerker, S. Phillips 147 - 112 = 259
3 Dwarf Tossers, S. Hand 154 - 93 = 247
4 JediBolts, S. Ollech 146 - 62 = 208
5 Nimrods, M. Guth 138 - 63 = 201
6 Vicious Rabbits, J. Kontney 140 - 60 = 200
7 Random Encounter, C. Wizard 114 - 62 = 176
8 The Big Gostkowski, K. Lim 87 - 84 = 171
9 Teh Peeled Bananas, E. Wood 101 - 64 = 165

And again, as already pointed out. This is the last week you can make changes. You will be using the same players for the Super Bowl.

Good luck!

I need Colston to have a big day.

EDIT: Nope, upon further review, I can't do anything.

[Berzerker]

bummer, I was so close to taking Collie but I went with Rice

and Thomas over Bush/Addai was the way to go, should have taken Collie and bought Thomas with my savings

and Favre is out

[ColdWizard]

Favre is never out.

[Berzerker]

he is now and Ming will have the advantage going into the SB with a full slate while I'll be short a WR

it'll be Colston and Collie vs Garcon for me

[Ben Kenobi]

Yep good luck guys.

I decided not to jinx Manning/Brees by running a slate. Figured I ought to take my lickings for picking Bolts/Cowboys last week as I called for a superbowl appearance by both of them.

[Berzerker]

congrats Rabbit on winning the week

and I sure would have had the advantage had Minny won that. Oh well, at least that clinches the Lombardi Trophy for me this year. I think thats the first time I won that

[duke o' york]

You get an ever-so-tasteful ring for winning it.

Well done.

[/British sarcasm]

[Ming]

It was a great game in New Orleans. The officiating was questionable at best, but at least I have a full slate of players for the game. It was surprising that Thomas got more points than Brees

[SlowwHand]

Yep good luck guys.

I decided not to jinx Manning/Brees by running a slate. Figured I ought to take my lickings for picking Bolts/Cowboys last week as I called for a superbowl appearance by both of them.

I hate to piss in your Post Toasties, but I was heavy on Cowboys last week.

[Ming]

Rosters are locked, and it's down to the Super Bowl.

JR won the week with a 127 point effort.

The top three teams are all in good shape with rosters made up of Indy and NO players. (Berz had one Minny player) There is enough variations in the teams that any of us can still win.

[Ben Kenobi]

I presume you're excluding me?

[Ming]

I presume you're excluding me?

Huh?

[Ben Kenobi]

Sorry, I missed your clarification, "any of the top three teams still have a chance to win." My bad for scanning.

[-Jrabbit]

What's wrong with this ESPN game is that there is nothing to do in the entire 2-week Super Bowl break. That's time when I could be interminably tweaking my lineup - providing advertiser eyeballs. Instead, I practically forgot this game existed.

Somebody alert ESPN. They must rethink this game structure. Stupid.
