Week 4 Update


Hey Guys,

Sorry for the late update.  Left town after Monday so I wasn’t able to fit this in after the game.  Probably should have done it beforehand but whatever.

Lots of close calls this week!  I think many of us were sweating our tournament lives thanks to the Saints and Packers putting on beautiful performances at home, which would have crippled the league.  Or at least, gotten about 5 or 6 people knocked out.  Unfortunately, only 2 went down this week in what ended up being a very mundane week, capped off with a rematch from 1926 with the Chicago Cardinals playing the NY Giants on Sunday Night.  WOOOOF!

The most picked team this week was the Saints with 5, followed closely by the Jets with 4.  The Patriots were the least picked team with only one person picking them.

Another quick recap:

18 people are still around
9 people have a strike against them
1 person gained a strike this week
2 people were knocked out
9 people are flawless
3 people are F’in out!

Pick of the week:

Pick of the week this week goes to Ryan Pur…oh wait he hasn’t paid yet.  The pick of the week goes to Sam Heinlein and Mike Zahler for picking the Texans in what could have been a let down game after that debacle last week in Houston. 
Honorable Mention:  This week goes to the Minnesota Vikings for getting Randy Moss from the Patriots for 2 bills and an HJ; much like Ben Clark use to at the Temple of Pong.

Worst pick of the week:

Goes to Ryan Purcell for picking the Pats, because you haven’t paid!  Get your damn money in.  We all know your sitting around doing nothing in North Medford.  Nice pick though.  The spread for that game was a PK.

On a side note everyone is probably wondering why I let Purcell hang around.  If you look at his last 3 picks they haven’t exactly been smart so I figure it’s a free 20 bucks to the winner, eventually.  He just can’t keep this luck up and has already been burned once.  He assured me that he will hand it to me in person on Saturday.  If not, I’ll boot him and he will owe $40 if he wants in next year.  However, on popular vote if everyone is not ok with this let me know since you have all paid.

So this leaves us with most of the league still intact.  Just pick against the Bill.

Also, I’m not pulling everyone’s chain with the website.  It is coming.  It has been started we are just trying to figure out how to update it.  We may need to just do a blog for this year, because the host may cost a little too much right now.

Here’s a quick preview of your Pool Boy Pick Em’ Website…





No, that actually won’t be the logo (hopefully), but it is the picture up on the site right now.  Along with Trent’s slogan “Choose your fantasy, pool boys or pick ‘em, we got both.”  Which probably will stick around.

The Pool Party is over…

It’s that time of the week again to sadly say goodbye to those who have gone astray.  This week we bid ado to Marcus Arnold and Joe Church.  These two young men were only able to last 3 weeks, but provided great memories along the way.  They did a pretty poor job of cleaning the pool, and both like to play it conservatively but were burnt by poor QB play and a man with a golden foot.  Thank you again for your contributions.  We will make sure to have a good laugh in your name Marcus, whenever we think of the Jags this year when they end up winning only 5 games and you as well Joe, when the Browns only win 2.



At least you aren’t this sad, sad man, but your still both F’in Out!:
