AE 2008 - AE Next Duel

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

Just an idea for next year (never too early to plan ahead). Keep the Division Names , have the the strongest four in one, and then each four after that in another and keep going down, until the weakest four, would only work if all 44 are back next year. If any newbies come in then they go into a seperate division (Jim Kelly Division?)

Just thinking out aloud

The division with the four worst performers needs to be the Rich Kotite division.

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

Cant say i agree with that idea, it gifts a playoff spot to a bad tipster, it would be like putting the Bengals, Chiefs, Lions and Raiders all in the same division, personally i'd say just leave the divisions to build up some sort of rivalry, but if you were to change it, do it something like this:

All 11 divisions made up of one person ranked 1-11 this year, one ranked 12-22, one ranked 23-33 and one ranked 34-44.

So the first division might contain #1, #22, #23, #44, then #2, #21, #24 and #43 and so on

Any assier and they'll start calling you J-Lo, or D-Lo in your case.

Wouldn't surprise if Deevs starts dropping 'ND match -ups' after needing to point out he is 7-0.. just like when stats come up during a game.. the reverse tend to happen more often than not.


Anyway, good on you Deevs.. if you've got it, FLAUNT IT I say

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

Its a huge week 8 matchup between myself and JD

JD has dealt me my only loss so far this season and trails by half a game 6-1 to 5-1-1. A win gives me a 1.5 game lead and evens the H2H, but 2 losses to JD would surely seal my fate

I'm calling it - I've got a 77-64 lead with only the Titans/Colts game to go. JD has has the Colts for 1 point, and I've got the Titans for 5 points. A result either way won't change the outcome.

It's getting tight in the LT Division!

I've got Moo covered and Island Bomber has Manureid covered too... so after this round all 4 of us will be locked on 4-4!

Interesting run home.

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

**shakes head with wry smile** How I won vs Zarko has me wondering What hell was he thinking picking the Steelers?? That means I sweep you Z man.. (Thank you very much!!) your guys may have etched out a win from Heinz Field today but Big Ben really stunk it up, yet we lose by 7 and still had a chance in the last 2 minutes.. just one of those days.

Damn Garcia & his Buccs.. I loaded up and they BURNED ME.

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

lol yeah you got lucky to get so close...

tbh I couldn't give a damn if I lose in the tipping... We beat the Steelers at Heinz

well, if you didn't give a damn, why not pick the G-Men anyway?? All you needed was to pick 'em this week and let Tennessee do the rest. Anyway gonna be a dogfight in your ND division with a three-way 4-4 split for first atm. I wish you well.

As in I am happy to lose the tips this week if it results in a Giants win...

Still wanna win but will be hard...

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

Once again, Deevs (8-0), survives a narrow contest to remain PERFECT, edging fellow Bengal fan, Meltiger (2-6), by a slim margin. On the flipside, Wolfmother (0-8), so gallant in defeat, edged out by less than 6 from Burnley Bomber (5-3), remains winless but boy, wouldn't the sweet scalp of the high flying 5-3 Crowman_23 , raffle a few feathers in the chase for the wildcards.

Only TWO DUELS that remain undecided this week prior to MNF are GG (2-5) & The Great Barry Besanko (5-2) needing the Titans to triumph while Camsmith (3-4) & Fuey (3-4) can start thinking about pushing for a wild-card chance if INDY get up.

Damn, our division it TIGHT!! I need to LIFT, my last 2 weeks have been woeful. Might get my 2 year old son to tip for me, could not be any worse....

If the Lawrence Taylor Division was a woman, I'd want to meet her.

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

It's interesting looking at correct tips and pts for versus w-l record.

Wizard and I have a 3-5 record, but he has 78 correct tips to my pathetic 60, and he has a good 618 pts for to my pathetic 533.

Looking thru my AE confidence tips, I get a lot of high scores right compared to most people around the 2-6 to 5-3 record.

Also, i cant remember who it was, it may have been meltiger or someone else, they got 11/14 right this week, but their AE score was lower than people who had like 7/14 right, and they ended up near the bottom half of the weekly Group Scores on the yahoo AE page.

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

Manureid, don't complain too much, I've had a bad six week run... and I will leave at that.

tappy hipping

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

lol my 5 week run haqs been horrendous... Started off well (In normal tipping) but then got too caught up in tipping the underdogs...

8 on Cincy this week!!! : D............................................................................

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

is it too early to rest my starters?

 

[Wolfmother2]

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

What a laugh, I would have won against 22 others and drew against two more.... Maybe I should stop looking mainly at my 3-2-1

 

[Wolfmother2]

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

just had another look, I would have only beaten one in my division and that was only 3 points... Gees glad I'm in the Upshaw Div

Funnily enough, I had no problem getting over the line this week, vs another inferior division foe (4 wins max)... even before MNF. Still think getting on a winning streak and make a run for the ND play-offs isn't out of the question for me. Manureid, afterall, picks mostly the favs every week and 3-4 upsets have been
a weekly occurence.

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

I need NE to win to beat Danielz

 

[Oscarman]

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

17 points behind Burnley Bomber with 2 games to go - but I have 18 points riding on Indy and Pittsburgh. Can still get home by 1. Always hopeful.

 

[Wolfmother2]

Re: BF AE - NEXT DUEL - Schedule Scores Discussion

I am the Bengals... first win of the season taking out the 7th rank crowman.... just for you woodson i know you want a wildcard

I'd say so.
