Fantasy & Pick ‘Em Results: NFL Week #9

November 4, 2008 in Tailgating Ideas

New Englands Patriots cheerleaders Briana Lee,...Mmmmm, Cheerleaders!
Just like Barack Obama did tonight, TailgatingIdeas.com had a good weekend. Both he and I finished with dominating wins. (For the record I did not vote for neither Obama nor did I vote for McCain, but I did vote.)

Okay, so winning the Cuzoogle Pigskin Pick ‘em pool for Week #9 is just slightly less important than being elected the next President, I can still be excited, right? After only missing on two games this past weekend, I went 12-2 and didn’t even need the tie breaker. Also, this is the second week I have been the top dog for the week. The last time I was the weekly winner was back in week #5. And the news keeps on getting better. Not only is my ad going to be seen on Cuzoogle for the next seven days, but I also took over first place in the overall standings. Albeit it is only a 2 game difference but still leading none the less. Maybe I should move to Vegas after it is all said and done. Here are the standings for the past week.

1. Tailgating Ideas 12-2
2. GrandmasterB 11-3
3. Buzz Pirates 11-3
4. Yep Yep 11-3
5. Juiced Sports 11-3
6. Women Like Sports 10-4
7. Waiting for Next Year 10-4
8. Cover2 10-4
9. NESW Sports 10-4
10. Chocolate Dog Blog 9-5
11. The Blue Workhorse 9-5
12. Zoner Sports 9-5
13. Machochip 9-5
14. The Sports Dollar 9-5
15. Don Chavez 9-5
16. Mac Gs World 8-6
17. Brahsome 8-6
18. The Sports Lounge 8-6
19. Sports Opinion 8-6
20. NE Patriots Draft 7-7
21. My Sports Rumors 7-7
22. Inside Plays 5-9
23. Busted Coverage 5-9

As for the fantasy league over at NFLJuice, I was able to pull a win over Awful Announcing in the 2008 Blogger Classic. It brings my overall record to 4-5 and it is still not that impressive but getting better. Next week is The Big Lead who is 5-4 and it is not an insurmountable task to beat those guys. Looks like they have some bye week issues with their roster so this one might be easier than other games in the past.

Sorry, no visual on the standings this week. I guess the guys over at NFLJuice are too hopped up election coverage to get off their tushies and do a quick screen capture. Freaking slackers.

NFL Juice Blogger Fantasy League Draft Tomorrow

August 26, 2008 in Tailgating Ideas

You probably read that I have been invited to participate in Cuzoogle’s Pigskin Picks contest. I have also been chosen to participate in the Blogger’s Classic Fantasy Football League hosted by the guys over at NFLJuice.com. (If you are a football fan or just a fan of fun stuff that is not necessarily sports related, you need to regularly read NFLJuice.)

Now I am not one to toot my own horn but I do have some pretty good experience in the realm of fantasy football. I am not only the defending champion in a 15 owner, keep 2 league, I have won that league back-to-back. My other redraft league I play in I have been a champion and have placed in the top three or been the head-to-head champion for the past five years.

I am going up against some heavy hitters in this year’s edition of the Blogger’s Classic. Most notably The Hazean, a blog dedicated to dolling out fantasy football advice. How embarrassing will it be for those guys if they get beaten out by some beer soaked tailgater like myself?

Each Tuesday I will post the standings and the previous week’s results. The draft is tomorrow so wish me luck. Here is a list of all 10 blogs competing against each other.

1. Sports Illustrated (Hot Clicks) (Jimmy Traina)

2  Deadspin (AJ Daulerio)

3.  The Dirty (Nik Richie)

4. The Big Lead (Jason McIntyre)

5. Busted Coverage (J. Koot)

6.  The Hazean (Michael, Blaine, Marc, Aaron)

7. Tailgating Ideas (Dave Lamm)

8.  Awful Announcing (Brian Powell)

9. CC47  (Tanner Cooley)

10. NFL Juice (Staff)
