Poly IDP 2012 Draft Thread: No one can replace Ed Hochuli

[Sparrowhawk]

Care for a side bet on who gets more points from their QB's this season?

[-Jrabbit]

btw, I seem to recall Jrabbit saying he likes to draft at least one Bear....anyone else not surprised by the Peppers pick?

I was starting to get nervous. All the useful Bears players are gone, save some dubious WRs and two aging LBs.

Sure. What did you have in mind? I don't like to bet money, call it a holdover from my Mennonite days.

[Al B. Sure!]

Ben, Sparrowhawk has Tom Brady.

[Ben Kenobi]

Ben, Sparrowhawk has Tom Brady.

And? Your point is?

How about what I like to call "The SlowwHand Bet"...the loser can't post anything but picks in next years draft thread? No commentary, no rules discussion, 22 posts in next years thread, all with picks only. (The other football threads are open season for any and all discussion). I checked and you have 135 posts in this thread, I only have 40, so given that we have both made 17 picks, you have made 118 "extraneous posts" where I have made 23. I realize this might not be fair, so I give you the option to propose a revision to this.

For you, you'll wear an avatar of my choice throughout next year's draft. Fair?

Holy ****. I've only made 40 posts in the D/ST thread and Sloww was telling me to shut up.

What the hell, Ben? 118 in a 518 post thread? This thread is 22% Ben

[SlowwHand]

It's not the "sometimes" comment, it's the endless deluge of crap.

TAKEN!

[Sparrowhawk]

People leave me their lists. How about no commentary, picks only?

For you, you'll use an avatar of my choice throughout next year's draft. Fair?

Sure, with a slight revision to your wording above. (I wasn't sure how to "wear" an avatar....and didn't want to find out).

[Ben Kenobi]

Sure, with a slight revision to your wording above. (I wasn't sure how to "wear" an avatar....and didn't want to find out).

I give you an avatar to use, and you'll put it up on your poly account. Conditions will be:

Per PPR league scoring,
Sparrowhawk wins if Tom Brady and Josh Freeman score more points combined than Philip Rivers and Joe Flacco.
Ben Kenobi wins if Philip Rivers and Joe Flacco score more points combined than Tom Brady and Josh Freeman.

If Sparrowhawk wins, Ben Kenobi agrees to only post his picks and lists in the assigned 2013 Apolyton PPR draft thread - no commentary.
If Ben Kenobi wins, Sparrowhawk agrees to put up an avatar chosen by Ben Kenobi for the duration of the draft.

Deal?

[Sparrowhawk]

Deal
(though I had initially intended it to be points counted meaning the QB we actually started on any given week....but I can live with this)

[Ben Kenobi]

(though I had initially intended it to be points counted meaning the QB we actually started on any given week....but I can live with this)

That's very difficult to keep track of, and couldn't be confirmed easily once the year is over. We'd have to keep a thread to keep track of who we started and what the points were every week. Why bother? This is cleaner.
