LET THE CONTROVERSY BEGIN!!!!

Before we get to the controversy I must start with the winner. This week we had a 7 way tie for first place with a record of 16-2. One of those seven absolutely nailed the first tiebreaker on the nose with a guess of 70 total points in the Stanford/Arizona St game. Here is the list, controversy is at the end.

bigred472- 16-2 WINNER
White Rat- 16-2
HuskerinBig10- 16-2
Corn train- 16-2
Driaz-16-2
Fumble rooskie- 16-2
Irule- 16-2
Recon- 15-3
HuskerInSecLand- 15-3
NE1tm2nv- 15-3
TomHusker- 14-4
Popeyecv64- 14-4
Footballnut- 14-4
Gobigred- 14-4
Red Alert- 14-4
JedBurks- 13-5
Aqwk68- 13-5
Uncfan103- 13-5
HuskerPower52- 13-5
FNG- 12-6
Sandhill Husker- 12-6

Ok, as for the controversy. Rules are rules. I understand that the rules were bent in order to get JJM and my picks in this week because we got in after the 6:30CST deadline on Friday. But I also believe that any game going on at that time should be a loss. Everyone said that it was ok to get JJM and my picks in but no real consensus on how the Thursday game should be tallied. If we give JJM the Clemson win then he is part of a 4 way tie for last. If he takes the Clemson game as a loss then he is the loser of the week. I have to make the ruling and say that since the pick was in after the deadline then it is a loss. So the rest of the list goes like this.

Tometom- 11-7
Nate- 11-7
Oaknightshockey- 11-7
JJM- 10-8

Course id be last in the first place tie.. thee one week i actually do well :L

Yeah. I'm embarrassed to have lost to you. I won't be snoozing through anymore pickem's that's for sure.

1. I'll do my pickem's the day after they come out, instead of taking a day off.
2. I'll stop trying to put square pegs into round holes.
3. I'll put less time on X's and O's, and more time on fundamentals.

That is not true Irule. After the winner, the people that tied are listed randomly. If I did rank them off if tie breakers, you would have been 3rd. I just figured after the winner and loser, ranking didn't matter.

Are you going to try to have more fun as well instead of pressing too much? Hahaha

Just make sure that if anyone dismisses you picks tell them to fuck off and to kiss your ass on the way out the door.

Haha

I'll only do that if I come back from a huge early Saturday deficit, and Win. :evil:

In my own defense, I tried making my picks as fast as I could since I was a minite late and I literally just randomly picked about 90% of those.

That is hilarious though. Now I know why plorpeye always ends up towards thee bottom
