Sports - NFL Week 15: Pick the Winners

**Hot Rod** · 12-10-2003, 03:39 PM

Hey NFL fans! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] The "Pick the Winners� game returns for its fourth season at this board. For those who have played before, you know how the drill goes. Newcomers: this is a fun and easy game to play. For each week of the regular season, all you have to do is pick which team you think will win each match-up and then place a point value on that game. For example, there are 16 games in Week 15, and it is your job to allocate points from the game you are most confident in (16 pts.) to the game you view as a toss-up (1 pt.). Therefore, points will be allotted in decreasing value from 16, 15, 14, 13...all the way down to 1. *Remember, you CAN'T place the same point value on more than one game.* At the end of each week, we will tally up the number of points each participant has earned based on correct predictions, and the person with the most overall points at that time will be crowned winner. Sound simple? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] If you have any questions, feel free to post them at this thread.

So I went 12-3 and I'm in last place, with no way to advance? What's up with that?

DAMN!!!

So close. Damn those Green Bay Packers! Why couldn't they have pulled off another choke job this week? That pick, along with going against my hometown Bears, really hurt me this week. Oh, well! My record wasn't that bad considering...

Don`t blame me. You shouldn`t had put some many points on the Falcons and Vikings, especially the Falcons, who had little chance against the Colts.

Anyway here`s the final standings for Week 15:

Hot Rod: 127 pts (13-3)
sf3000: 122 pts (14-2)
Chi159: 122 pts (12-4)
dcismyfav: 108 pts (10-6)
Avatar: 99 pts (10-6)
Superhero: 93 pts (13-3)

Two weeks in a row for me! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Now i`m in the the 2 weeks winners club with Avatar and Wildfire Girl. All that`s left is join sf3000 as the only other 3 weeks winner.

Congrats, Hot Rod! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Looks like you're on a roll! After a long dry spell, you have taken top honors the past two weeks. Nicely done! Of course, we'll just have to find a way to end this streak of yours. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
