Unt hast been received as well.

Sigh. I guess I'll join again, although I seem to be getting worse each year, which, probably not coincidentally, coincides with me getting busier each year. Picking games was much easier when I could spend hours killing time on the internet while at work. Send me you address, Zaxxon, and I'll get a check out this week. Thanks.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Tue Aug 31, 2010 11:39 pm

Check is in the mail.

I did submit for an Ironman as well at least I think I did

Also just a friendly reminder that there is a game on Thursday this week.

Toting my laptop down to my favourite coffee shop to make my many rounds of picks in peace and quiet. I'll be sure to submit them 10 minutes or so prior to kickoff, as per your instructions.

indeed.

JC, if you mean submitted payment, yes you did. If you meant picks, I haven't received anything yet.

Theo wins the award for first tiebreaker submission (0 pts), and WHEAATTONN!! wins fist pick submission award (0 pts). Congrats!

And yes, don't forget that kickoff is THURSDAY. Aim to have your picks in on WEDNESDAY to minimize chance of issues.

BRING ON ZE FOOSBALLLS!!!!!!

Jiffy · Post by **Jiffy** » Sun Sep 05, 2010 10:38 am

Zaxxon · Post by **Zaxxon** » Sun Sep 05, 2010 1:48 pm

Received Jiffy's payments this AM, and Isgrimnur and Remus's checks yesterday.

List of unpaids by my count is currently:

Kurth
Skinypupy
Teflon Rich
Ricky
Big Jake

We're up to 36 entries, including 3 Ironmen. Still room for a few more if any lurkers are interested.

BAZINGA!

(sent tiebreaker answers too)

Big Jake · Post by **Big Jake** » Mon Sep 06, 2010 10:41 am

Payment sent. Let's get this soon to be terrifying (for us Bears fans) season over with.

Big Jake · Post by **Big Jake** » Mon Sep 06, 2010 11:04 am

Oh, and Zaxxon, 'How many games will Urlacher play?' couldn't have been a tiebreaker this year?
My money is on four.

moghedian · Post by **moghedian** » Mon Sep 06, 2010 3:46 pm

Ironman picks finally sent!!!

So is anyone else who is doing Ironman up for a wager like we did last year?

soulbringer · Post by **soulbringer** » Mon Sep 06, 2010 7:05 pm

Week 1 picks and tiebreakers sent.

Ralph-Wiggum · Post by **Ralph-Wiggum** » Tue Sep 07, 2010 3:57 pm

This is one of the harder weeks I can remember. I'll be surprised if we have many scores higher than 24 or so.

Zaxxon · Post by **Zaxxon** » Wed Sep 08, 2010 9:12 am

Quick update: We're up to 42 entries! The non-paid list and my understanding of status is down to:

Big Jake (check on way hopefully to arrive today)
Grievous Angel (PP coming today)
Kurth (?)
Ricky (Check on way)
Teflon Rich (Check on way)
Teflon Rich IM (Check on way)

Anyone who has been sitting on the sidelines, now is the time to join; this is the largest # of players we've had. Also if anyone has an itch to add an Ironman entry to get in on the friendly wager between Jiffy & Co, we've only got 4 Ironman entries--your odds are decent! Still time to tack that on via PP.

I sent out a reminder email yesterday regarding tomorrow's start of week one and tie-breakers; if you didn't receive it, please let me know via PM.

So what was the Ironman wager last year? I'm down for something this year.

Just sent in my picks, with little confidence in...well...any of them. Tough week to pick.

I am pixilated.

Kurth · Post by **Kurth** » Wed Sep 08, 2010 7:16 pm

Picks are in.

I forgot how hard it is to pick in the first week.

I think I would have been better off with a monkey and a dartboard.

The Meal · Post by **The Meal** » Thu Sep 09, 2010 9:27 am

Last year, JC Anejo and I put up a $10 scratch ticket. I lost, I sent him the ticket and he said he won $50.

I'm up for something like that, though not sure how exactly it would work with multiple peoples.

theohall · Post by **theohall** » Fri Sep 10, 2010 9:29 am

So I wasn't the only one who locked the Saints....

Still can't believe how many mediots were picking the Vikings to win after all the crap coming out of Minnesota about how they were going to "get Drew Brees" and treat him like the Saints treated Favre in the NFC Championship game. They weren't thinking about winning a football game - which is bad. Even if the Saints only won by 5.... the Vikings still rarely got near Brees at all. So much for them getting their revenge for Brett.

moghedian · Post by **moghedian** » Fri Sep 10, 2010 3:26 pm

Ironman wise.....5 this time!

Well, we could always just do $10. I told JC last year if I won and the ticket was over $1000 or something I would split it with him.

If someone from California is in the Ironman and I lose and send them a winning ticket, they can mail it back to me and will cash it in
and send them a check for the winnings.

I'd like to set something up before the weekend. My Ironman is already losing!

What do you think JC Anejo?

Dang. I should have done the ironman. That sounds like a fun incentive. Is it possible to join if I use my week 1 picks and get the rest of the picks in before this weekends games (he asks having picked right the first game)

That works for me. If anyone has a problem with it, then you can submit an ironman but take a loss for game 1. But I'm OK with giving you game 1 if everyone else is.
