[quote name='Doomtime']Jets still have a slim shot to get into the postseason. Win out and hope for a Bengals upset in week 17[/QUOTE]
I can't believe I STILL have a shot after blowing my last two games. Or on the flipside of that coin... I can't believe I blew those two games when the playoffs were right within my grasp! Just going to try to get the W tonight and go from there. Fingers crossed.
[quote name='Doomtime']I think this should be a CPU game then. Ballhawk has missed at least 3 games possibly even 4.[/QUOTE]
I tend to agree, though I don't especially want to wait until 10 or 11 to advance. It's not an important game for the Falcons, so I'd prefer to just sim it.
If ballhawk's not interested in continuing, I'm sure we can find a new Saints owner. And that doesn't just go for him, we have several owners who have become very hard to reach/schedule games with.

Does this include me, or do I have "excused absences"?

You're excused. I don't mind people missing a few games, it's when they compound it with a lack of communication that it concerns me.
Ballhawk, Cru, and Zurezo are the main guys who have had that problem this season, though not the only ones. We're not booting anyone at this point, but I do ask that everyone take a look at their commitment to the league and evaluate if they still want to participate.
I say let ATL play the cpu I don't want the saints to get another sim win to make it were it might make a team I forget who not make the playoff and that said team could rest their starters next week.
[quote name='bvharris']That would seem to require waiting an extra 3-4 hours after our planned advance time.[/QUOTE]
Ok I will just hope for a sim loss or for the lions to put it on them next week(who shouldn't rest any starters because some might need just one more game of stats to get MVP )
I'll let ubernes decide the best course of action on it. I'm torn - on the one hand I want to move to the playoffs and then the offseason as quickly as possible, and on the other hand I agree that it would be unfortunate to see ballhawk back into the playoffs on the strength of sim wins.

What's the playoff implications? Is Tanabeo really screwed if the Saints pull off a sim win? Obviously the Lions will be a tough out so the Saints (if they show next week) won't have an easy time.
My first choice though would be to advance ASAP tonight so we can move things along quickly and get to the playoffs and draft.
If you head home early, we can assume my 630pm EST game will be the last one? So advancing us at 730? I may try to schedule a double header. And update the thread title.
jags might even trade the 1st overall pick in the draft again lol if offered the right player
wants/needs- WR, CB, fast running back
pm me if interested in making deal
putting this up since i wont be around possibly for the draft so picks dont matter to me to much and would like to try and get deals in before the last second before i leave in case theres no time to move them b4 i go. and dont worry if im not there for the draft staticz will be handling the draft for me so no worries about being screwed there guys.

Yep, that's the plan.
I'm actually headed home now Doom, so you should be able to play by 2 or so.
Jets looking to end the season with a double-header. Texans-Jets at 6:30pm EST (hopefully a little before), and then Jags-Jets kicking off around 7:30pm EST (hopefully a little before, as well). Game 1 is huge, as that could snowball into some bad news. Looking forward to it though.

I'll be around, so just shoot me a PM when Game 1 wraps up and I'll advance us. Otherwise I can promote you beforehand and you can just advance yourself between games.

If you could promote me that would be great. Not that I think I'll be jumping right into my next game, but might as well since I'll be on. I'll send it back to you right away for the playoffs.
