Week 9 Update

Poolster’s

I told Percy I’d get this update in on time this week!  This week turned out to be decently eventful, but we missed what could have been the best week ever.  6 people could have gone down, but the Raiders pulled it off in over time thanks to Janikoski’s junk.  No but seriously, if anyone saw that game you saw Janikowski’s man hood beaking out ALL game.  I felt like I was stuck in the J-High chapel facing do south at a spread eagle Mark Udarbe.  Unfortunately, this was 60 minutes worth.

Bulge

Anyways, two others lucked out on a goal line stand as time was expiring with the Falcons and one person was saved by his Holiness, Brett Favre, in the Metrodome.  Brad Childress was about to get a lot more anger headed his way this week if the Cards won that one.

On a side note.  I think everyone should take the time and read Bobby and Nick Lamb’s comments in weeks 6 and 7/8 respectively.  These are our friends, or at least gambling partners.  We have awful friends.  Nick and Bobby, you two at the very least will share the award for worst comment of the season, if not ever.  Also, thank you very much for the pictures you sent me, Nick.  I do truly appreciate it and they are good.  I’ll make sure to incorporate them at some point, however; nothing comes close to your brothers beautiful mug.

Quick Recap

7 people are still around
4 people have a strike against them
2 people were knocked out
no one gained a strike
3 people are flawless
14 people are F’in Out

Pick of the Week

I’m going a little selfish this week.  This week I’m taking the crown with my pick of the Vikings!  I would have given this award to Bobby, but if anyone witnessed that Chefs/Raiders game it was too awful to be handing out awards to.  I think Janikowski’s balls are really to blame here though.

I know, that's about how exciting the pick of the week was this week.


Worst Pick of the Week

It was really a toss up since two people lost on upsets.  This week however, goes to Kyle Schultz.  Anytime you get blown out by the Browns…someone has to pay the consequences.  We all know Tom Brady isn’t going to suffer the consequences.  He is just going to dump it off like a pregnant ex GF and Kyle, this week, you are that pregnant ex GF.

Elimination Time

A two fold serenade!  We would like to wish Kyle Shultz and Dan Stone adieu.  This really is their final goodbye this year because they did not decide to join the Re-Up.  See, sometimes gambling even more does pay off.  The two best QB in the league couldn’t muster up anything for these partygoers so their time is over after 8 short weeks.  We will take their $40 total dollars in stride and wish them the best in their future endeavors.  Perhaps there will be more room in the pool next year.  Your F’in out!

THE RE-UP

The Re-Up this week was much more boring than last week and is even more boring then the main pot even though we have more people.  We can again thank the Browns for shaking things up a bit.

Rundown
All 10 people remain
6 people are flawless
4 people have a strike against them
1 person gained a strike this week
No one is F’in Out

Pick of the Re-Up Week

Goes to Pat Kelly.  A tough pick and a goal line stand helped keep Pat from being a Donk this week.  However, his Seahawks did not have the same outcome.  Congratulations Pat, you are not a Donk, but your football team surely is.

Worst Pick

Goes to the only person that lost.  Michael Zahler.  What can I say that hasn’t been said before?  I’ll just flash Janikowski’s junk one more time for good measure.  That should about sum up this pick.



So here are the standings after this week…

So there we have it guys.  Just hit the half way mark of the season.  Congrats to everyone who is still around.  It is definitely one of the toughest years in recent memory, believe me, cause my bookie is thrilled.  Our courage level for those still around I would say has to be close to this young girl.  Ah...so inspiring.

Also, if you are in the Re-Up I have only received payment for 5 out of 10 of you.  Payment is due on Monday so make sure to get it in ASAP.  I know ya’ll are good for it.  Purcell, don’t make me call your mother again.  Also, the site has been updated a bit in efforts to show this league isn’t going belly up quite yet.  Profiles have been updated and a gem of a picture has been added.

Bests,
