Pre-Season Week 1 Results

Post by Marianne » Tue Aug 18, 2009 4:58 am

Here are the results for Pre-Season Week 1:


1. 69.118 The Aceman
2. 68.971 Marianne
3. 65.882 Chapagne
4. 63.676 Hostrauser
5. 63.529 fieldshowqueen
6. 62.794 jacjar1
7. 56.912 bigmikedrivesbmw
8. 50.147 JediMasterBando
9. 44.559 teacherken
10. 33.676 Nreuest


For the pre-season, I'm just using one workbook for all three boards to post the recaps. You'll find your board in the appropriately marked tab in the workbook, as well as a tab for all the combined boards. When the Regular Season starts (and progresses), I'll have a separate workbook for each board that will track a variety of interesting stats.

Access the preseason recap here:

RECAPS

If you get a password prompt, click on "cancle" and it should bump you to the workbook. If you have any trouble accessing the workbook, let me know and I'll try to fix the link. Or e-mail me at fbpoolgame@comcast.net and I'll just e-mail the recap to you.

Had lunch with Brett Favre today. He ordered a ham sandwich on rye. When the sandwich came, he sent it back and asked for it on white instead. They brought him a ham on white, he sent it back and asked for it on rye again. He got his ham on rye, took two bites, then sent it back for a bowl of chicken noodle soup instead. The waiter brings out a bowl of soup, and Brett begins crying about about how he's not sure this is the right meal for him. He left the restaurant it tears. Fifteen minutes later he came back to the table and ordered a ham sandwich on rye bread.

I left and went to the McDonald's drive-thru.

bigmike, I won't be able to accept your picks for games 3-5, as they felll under deadline #1. But don't fret, that's what pre-season is for, and why its all just practice for the regular season.

Actually, for next week's games I think I will experiment with deadlines that cover each day's worth of games. Split deadlines won't be a big deal for the regular season. But might make things easier once the post season comes around. A good time to experiment with it would be now when its all just for practice.
