The Admiral's 2008 Fifth Annual NFL Pooltravaganza! TehMuff1nM4n is the Winne!

Not feeling really good about it but I guess i'll keep my pick of Houston. I have a good feeling Oakland is going to win this one. Nhamdi will basically take Andre Johnson out of the game and then Shaub will have no one to throw the ball to. Houston's Running game and Defense will be the key to victory for them. Good Luck Everyone.
 
It doesn't look like anyone picked the Patriots this week. To me, they are the only sure win this week. Cardinals already got a playoff spot locked up and Pats need to win to get in. Don't forget the wintry conditions, as well as Boldin not playing.

Raiders may knock out a bunch of you this week.
 
Phew, I am glad that I decided to go back to the Saints. I never had to worry during that game. ONTO THE FINAL WEEK!! :applause: Good luck to the others, (not really, I hope you all lose) :lol: ;)

Your last pick was for the Texans. I re checked and you never made any changes back.

Your pick is clearly the Texans Muffin Man. This was the only post you made discussing your pick after you initially picked the Saints.

It's sort of confusing, but he did have something of that nature.

In response to after I made my pick? I originally changed it to the Texans and then made this post later on, which meant I wanted to stay with the Saints? I guess a screw up on wording on my part? Idk.

I took that post as if you didn't want to change again. I was thinking you had second thoughts on picking the Texans and you were going to change your pick for a third time until you said but nah, in meaning, you sticking with the Texans.

Ehhhh. I dunno about this. In essence you kinda made two picks IMO. You could have very well ( if the Saints Lost ) state that when you said you were not changing your pick, you meant you weren't changing it from the Texans to another team.

I guess we have to go by what AA put you down as.

Nah, if I didn't want to change my pick again I wouldn't have bothered in posting. I guess I should have been more specific when I made the post. :cry:

I just thought you were bored and wanted to voice your thoughts, maybe to see any input from fellow players left. It's kinda all how one reads it I guess.

Whats FFS mean by the way? Maybe that will clear some things up on my end since I have no clue what it stands for. I'm not down with all this 1337 interweb grammar.

All I know is that Admiral reads all the posts since last games and apparently he understood what I meant.

FFS means For fucks sake


EDIT: Not related, but POST 1500 in this thread. Haha

That is why I am waiting. I need to see which teams clinch playoff spots.

Lets hope Seattle and Oakland can hold on.

This was how I interpreted that series of posts from TehMuff1nM4n as well. Since the time when the pool was down to the last 20 or so people, I've been writing down everybody's picks each week so while I'm watching on Sundays I know which teams I'm rooting against :lol: After those posts, I had him down for Houston.

Ah well, it doesn't matter how I interpreted it.

So next week I think I'll take Baltimore. No wait, I changed my mind- Green Bay. Hmm, now I've changed my mind about changing my mind, so let's just say Atlanta. Actually, maybe I'll go with New England, unless I change my mind about changing my mind again. No, I've changed my mind about whether changing my mind again really means I've changed my mind, so for now I'll go with Washington. I'm kidding about that of course, so unless I change my mind, let's call it Miami. Hmm, I'm pondering changing my mind on several of those choices. No, no- it's settled. New England. Then again, I'm sort of starting to change my mind....

(Sorry, Muff1nM4n, don't mean to be a dick. Just havin fun with ya ;) )

It's not like all of us had the advantage of the bye. :lol: Having 3 days to make a pick is tough, especially with teams whittling down. Terrible spreads and injuries, I got nervous. Haha
 
[quote name='TehMuff1nM4n']It's not like all of us had the advantage of the bye.[/quote]

Actually we did. All of us just wasted our BYE real early.

I lasted til week 8 or so and I thought that was late. :lol: Who woulda known we last all season.
 
[quote name='TehMuff1nM4n']I lasted til week 8 or so and I thought that was late. :lol: Who woulda known we last all season.[/quote]

Yeah, I thought week 5 was late when I used it.
 
Atleast I don't feel bad about second guessing my pick. My other choice would have been the Steelers beating the Titans and that didn't happen either :D

I was soo right about Houston though. Nhamdi took Andre Johnson completely out of the game and really thats the only player that is good on Houston's offense.
 
[quote name='Layziebones']Broncos lost also, so good luck Chargers next weekend!![/QUOTE]

Thats going to be an awesome game next week along with Dallas vs Philly.
 
[quote name='TehMuff1nM4n']I lasted til week 8 or so and I thought that was late. :lol: Who woulda known we last all season.[/QUOTE] I was going to use my bye in week 8, then I decided to roll the dice and I went with Houston. At that point, week 11 was looking like a good time to use it, but then I went with Miami that week instead. I never thought we'd take it to the end of the season, either. By all rights, I should have been knocked out 4 or 5 times while still holding my bye, but it was just such a flukey season of near-misses and upsets that didn't quite happen.
 
Good Luck again everyone. Out of you 3 I don't really have a favorite to win it. I always branded Danimal as the guy to beat though since he is reigning champ. Good Luck again. I will be keeping my eye on this thread to look over the picks :D
 
By they way, if I end up winning and there are prizes people want who came in as runners up contact me. I really only want the points card, Zack and wiki, company of heroes, and maybe ninja gaiden. Everything else is pretty much fair game I think if people want to pay the shipping. :lol:

Whoa Whoa Whoa. Am I considered a runner up :D If so Rogue Galaxy or Odin Sphere would be great :D

Haha maybe, gotta see if I end up winning though. But yea, haven't had any interest in those 2 particular games I dont think.
 
This contest actually reminds me of the March Madness tourney here in '07. 65 names were drawn out of a hat and assigned a team randomly. I had Ohio State and made it to the finals versus Florida and lost. Lots of games in that one too. :lol: I CAN'T LOSE AGAIN!! ;)

Think a deal might be out of the question? The only things I really want is the Card, Chains of Olympus + Afro Samurai. (Maybe Ninja Gaiden or Oblivion :)

LMK

EDIT: I don't know if Chains of Olympus is the demo or not...

You never know, ;) I already have Oblivion for 360 so yea don't need that either. What is the card tho?
My biggest want is Company of Heroes and Zak and Wiki though.

The Xbox 1600 points card.
 
[quote name='TehMuff1nM4n']You never know, ;) I already have Oblivion for 360 so yea don't need that either. What is the card tho?[/quote]

1600 pt card. I figure what we do is if either of us wins we veto one item for ourselves and then the other person gets himself one pick out of the rest, no questions asked, and then thats it. The winner gets everything but one thing we give to the other.

Nice and easy.

We could really screw with it and all pick the same pick this week. Then first week of Wild Cards all pick same team and just do a random score. :lol: One winner easy peezy.

I would be onboard with just bypassing this week if danimal is. We can all pick detroit. Then we go straight to Playoffs.
