Title: Playoff suicide league
Post by: MURP on January 05, 2005, 01:05:34 PM
playoff suicide league is starting now.  rules are simple.  You pick a team who you think will win.  If they do, you move on to the next week.  If they lose you are done.  You cant pick the same team twice, so there is more strategy involved in the playoffs than during the regular season suicide league.   This contest will be run on the board.  Please send your picks to me in an IM.. I will post them before the games this week.   If multiple people make it to the Superbowl and have to pick the same team (since you cant pick the same team twice) there will be a tie breaker system.  I will announce the tiebreaker system that week if needed. (most likely based on guessing the correct score etc.)  I am taking picks now for this weekends games.

Picks must be in by 11:59 pm FRIDAY.

Truth be told, me too.  I decided to go with a dog, figuring if I won I'd probably be the only one that went that route.

Still alive, but have to pick the Pats.

I hope I lose.

I will come up with a tiebreaker for the Superbowl.  Obviously if you have picked the Eagles before you must pick the pats in the SB.  If you picked the Pats already you must pick the Eagles

Why not just do Super Bowl MVP followed by score/points?

The tiebreaker will be total points scored in the game and the 2nd tiebreaker will be rushing yards by Brian Westbrook.  So send in answers to both tiebreakers.

Here is the final round-

demonchildren- Rams, Falcons, Eagles, PATS - 48 total points, 119 yards rush for Westy
newgreenmonster- Colts, Steelers, Pats, EAGLES, 47 total points, 83 for Westy
yeti- Colts, Falcons, Pats, EAGLES, 48 Total points, 113 for Westy
MDS- Colts, Falcons, Pats, EAGLES - 33 total points,  87 for Westy
Geowhizzer- Colts, Falcons, Pats, EAGLES - 38 total points, 85 for Westy
Hollywood- Colts, Steelers, Eagles, PATS- 38 points, 64 rush yards


If for some reason the total points is exactly between what two people guessed we will go to the 2nd tiebreaker- Westy rush yards.  Any questions?

We should take the top 2 guys and we shoulds ettle it on the Pro Bowl Skills Challenge. Marvin Harrison has better hands than Hines Ward, thankyouverymuch.
