TFP Football Pool Week #16
Week # 16 The last week of the season? When I was a kid, the football season lasted sixteen weeks. You limped into the playoffs, and you fought your tails off to make it through the playoffs, and if you were lucky enough to make it to the Super Bowl, you got a week off before you played the big game. We’re in week 16, and there is still another week to go. I realize that this is because of the bye week, which I can understand, but not necessarily approve of it. At least it isn’t that double bye format from a couple of seasons ago - that was horrendous. I, the fan, would like to make a resolution: If all of the playoff teams are determined by a given week, regardless of the seeding potentials still open, that no games after that week will count in the playoff race. Lock and load at that point, and let teams have the option of “not playing” the games. This is my position, heed my call NFL. (Hey, at least it is better than David Letterman’s two balls, two quarterbacks on one play suggestion.) Mock me all you want, it still won’t get you to pick better this week.
TFP Football Pool rules: 1. Pick one team from each game to win the game. If they win, you get one point. Ties count as a loss. The most points win. (Points spreads are not included, so therefore they do not matter. “Just win, Baby” - Al Davis) 2. After all games are picked, give a point total for the total points scored in the Monday night football game. This is used as a tie breaker. The closest, without going over will break the tie. If all tied go over, the closest wins. 3. Have your picks in before the first kickoff. The thread will be closed at some point after midnight EST the night before the first game. (Thank you Spectre.) Don't be late - PM's after the thread is closed will not count. (Effective 12/1/04) If you are under a temporary suspension of TFP user benefits (banned), emails with your picks will not be accepted. If you get your picks in before bannation, they count. For convenience purposes please only list the winning team name. You should copy and delete from the schedule provided. PLEASE KEEP THE GAMES/TEAMS IN THE ORDER THEY ARE LISTED BELOW! Thank you, and good luck. *Note on the upcoming “TFP Playoffs”* The format of the TFP Football Playoffs will be the same as last year, with the top 16 players eligible to participate. It will be a seeded tournament (1 vs 16, etc.) with a single elimination. Specifics on the picks will be available once the playoffs start. If there is a tie between players at a given spot, a specific week (picked at random - trust me) will be eliminated. This process will be repeated until the seeds are determined. If a player has missed a week, that week will not be eligible to be eliminated. If a player declines the opportunity, the next player in line will be eligible to compete. Week #16 Team (2004 record, 2004 road/home record) Friday December 24, 2004 Green Bay (8-6, 4-2 road) Minnesota (8-6, 5-2 home) Saturday December 25, 2004 Oakland (5-9, 2-5 road) Kansas City (6-8, 3-4 home) Denver (8-6, 3-4 road) Tennessee (4-10, 1-5 home) Sunday December 26, 2004 Atlanta (11-3, 4-2 road) New Orleans (6-8, 2-5 home) Chicago (5-9, 3-4 road) Detroit (5-9, 2 -5 home) NY Giants (5-9, 3-4 road) Cincinnati (6-8, 4-3 home) Baltimore (8-6, 3-4 road) Pittsburgh (13-1, 7-0 home) Houston (6-8, 3-4 road) Jacksonville (8-6, 4-3 home) San Diego (11-3, 5-2 road) Indianapolis (11-3, 6-1 home) Buffalo (8-6, 3-4 road) San Francisco (2-12, 1-6 home) New England (12-2, 5-2 road) NY Jets (10-4, 6-1 home) Arizona (5-9, 1-6 road) Seattle (7-7, 3-3 home) Washington (5-9, 3-4 road) Dallas (5-9, 3-4 home) Carolina (6-8, 3-4 road) Tampa Bay (5-9, 4-3 home) Cleveland (3-11, 0-6 road) Miami (3-11, 2-5 home) Monday December 27, 2004 Philadelphia (13-1, 6-1 road) St. Louis (6-8, 4-2 home) This week’s prize: Fruit cake!
