The Game of Football---Season 2

Thanks JZ for the reminder...I totally planned on doing this and forgot. Lets get it going again boys.

Ok, so how about year #2 for this game on here---in honor of the Pigskin Season.

One post per person, per week to pick the winners of each Pro Football Game that weekend...with the tie breaker being the total points scored on the Monday Night Game.

Each persons picks have to be in by 11:59pm the night before the games kickoff (ie this Saurday night, Wedneday night prior to Thanksgiving, ect.).

Winner gets a minimum of 4 cigar selection ...no rules on the sticks, but of course no Phillies or Black N Mild either. Winner of each week becomes the sender to the winner the next week...and you can play every week you are eligible if you desire.

Hope to have some takers on this one...get your picks in and I will have a nice little something out to the winner about this next time week to start the season.

Alright fellas, here's the final results. You're not going to believe this!

sirfoster83 - 11
diamondog - 11

sirfoster83 takes the win with closest guess on the score of MNF.

The final combined score was 35 and he picked 41!

Here's the kicker for the week! How did my 9 month old daughter do with all her picks?
Jocelyn - 11
Final score guess from MNF = 39
That's right fellas! If my 9 month old smoked stogies, she'd be gettin 4 free ones this week! She out picked all of us!!!!!

Vulchor

That is correct....Diamond, if you win one week...you become the sender of sticks the next week, thus ineligible

SirFoster...it is your week my man. I actually waited on the Saturday sticks to seee if you won this...and indeed you did. I will get you out a package for the football and the lottery game winning today or tomorrow....CONGRATS!!!!!

Will post this weeks games later if no one else does.

Diamondog:
How does that work if you win back to back weeks....if you win 1 week you can't win the next?

You can continue to submit your picks that week though, just for the fun of it. That and to keep your rythmn going. Rythmn is everything in picking NFL games. LOL.

You have to be kidding me! After all those years backing up Payton Sorgi is now Elis backup. Poor guy will never play

I know right! I was just saying the same thing to my wife last week! The guy is destined to always backup a Manning. It's been a shame too because I watched that guy win some real nail biters at Wisconsin and was looking forward to seeing him the NFL.

Alright, here's my daughter Jocelyn's picks for this week. Smokee came over to play some golf and smoke some stoagies this Saturday and can verify that these are, in fact, her picks. Do not be surprised if Smokee's picks look identical!!!!

He was the last decent qb at WI this Tolzien has potential but Sorgi was great there. For a badger qb they usually suck

MNF= SF 36

Here's what it looks like going into MNF.

The following people are still in the hunt this week:

JZ - 9
Ripp - 9
Smokee - 8 (can tie with SF win)

The rest of the field looks like:

lilwing88 - 8
Diamondog - 7
Clearlysuspect - 7
Kingjk729 - 6

And the 9 month old Jocelyn had 7 correct picks this week.

I feel your pain. I've been sucking it up this year. My daughter has either tied me or outpicked me in both weeks.

Iam with both of you guys ..... OUCH

Tried to shake it up this week and picked some upsets.
Some worked, some not so much... My head wanted to pick
The Bears, but my heart wouldn't let us! Ugh!!!... Lesson learned!
If I had stuck with my original picks (whick still included Dallas)
I'd have 11 going into MNF! GRR ***Kicks Self***

I think adding Jocelyn's picks here brings another element to the game. It kind of makes you think, "It's OK if I don't win this week, as long as I don't get beatin by the 9 month old!" Unfortunately for me, I've been on the wrong end of this curve in both weeks so far.

clearlysuspect

Alright, here's how the cookie crumbles for Week 2:

Ripp - 10
JZ - 10
Smokeee - 8

Ripp is closest to the score of MNF. His guess 46. Actual score 45.

So congratulations Ripp for winning week 2!!!

Kingjk.... if it makes you feel any better, you guessed the MNF score correctly.

kingjk729

Thanks CS ................. can i get a kick in the nuts to go with my correct guess, cause that would be awesome ........................ LOL
