Title: 2007 TOTAL Post-season Contest
Post by StegRock on Jan 3rd, 2007, 4:02am
COME and ENJOY year three of our one-of-a-kind post-season fantasy football contest that takes you through ALL 5 WEEKS of the post-season...

Here are the simple rules and guidelines:

1) Lineups - Each week your lineup will consist of three players, 1 QB, 1 RB and 1 RC (WR or TE).  COMPLETE lineups are due by kickoff of the first game of the weekend!!!

2) Scoring - Simple... 1 point per yard, 60 points per touchdown.

3) Schedule - From Wildcard Weekend through the Pro Bowl...
   Wildcard Weekend - Saturday/Sunday, January 7th & 8th
   Divisional Playoffs - Saturday/Sunday, January 14th & 15th
   Conference Championships - Sunday, January 22rd
   Super Bowl XXXIX - Sunday, February 5th
   AFC-NFC Pro Bowl - Sunday, February 12th

4) The HITCH - You can only use a player once, i.e., once you have used a particular player, that player is unavailable to you again, i.e., you canNOT use any one player twice!!!  If you do so, you will get ZERO points for that player for that week.

Here is how it the contest will be administrated:

1) Weekly Lineup Submission - You are to submit your lineups either to "Referee" by instant message here on "the Gridiron":
(Direct Link) http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?action=imsend;to=Mod1;

or via the following thread:
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=56;action=display;num=1167814667.

IT IS UP TO YOU TO AVOID USING A PLAYER TWICE as per the rules.  Management is supposed to be a part of fantasy football.  So, do your job!  We don't baby people around here.  Contacting you to tell you you made a mistake is NOT our job.  And, do NOT submit your lineups late, please!  Again, COMPLETE lineups are due by the kickoff of the first game of the weekend!

2) Score Tallying and Reporting - Our member bgsgfan a.k.a. Jeremy Miller or yours truly, Stevie Steg, will tabulate everybody's scores on a spreadsheet and we will report everybody's scores and the standings every week.  A message will be appended to THIS thread with a link to the spreadsheet every week.

You can check things out on the web:
in HTML format at -
http://www.ffplayers.com/postseasoncontest/postseason.htm (this is the page linked to up in the featured links section);
and in Excel format at -
http://www.ffplayers.com/postseasoncontest/postseason.xls.

[smiley=pig.gif]-"That's all, folks!"

If you want to play, SIGN UP NOW HERE!!!

Oh, and by the way, commentary and questions can be appended to this, the administration/commentary thread!!! :)

First off, folks, there is really no more reason to "sign in" at this point.  If you want in, just start submitting lineups.

Also, I thought my response to this question sent to me by private-message was worth sharing with the group...


Quote:
Question: is return yardage included in the scoring for players in the post season contest? IE WR who also return punts.

Response:  Return yardage isn't, but return TD's are.  Just download/view one of the spreads (in either XLS or HTML format) and you can see what stats are included/processed.

Looks like Steg, Philly & O4L were smart not to drink the LJ Kool-Aid.  [smiley=alcoholic.gif]

No,... I did, Callie.  DB didn't.  That was me posting DB's lineup which he had sent me,... eh-hem,... privately.

Stuff's up...  This should be an EXCITING final THREE weeks to the end of the '07 season. [smiley=yes.gif] It is going to come down to the wire, I think.

Updated through the Conference Championships...  Things really got scrambled up a bit... [smiley=ohshit.gif] And, some guys have really screwed themselves for the Super Bowl... [smiley=whistle.gif] because their understanding of how things were going to unfold in the playoffs was "lacking"... [smiley=no.gif]

So Steg... you want to give us a hint who you prefer at QB?  Is it Sorgi or Griese?   ;)

Post by Callie on Jan 29th, 2007, 11:37pm
Rex gets no respect.

So, um....  And where was P. Manning after that many starts?  

Oh, wait.  And, um....  And who has the best QB rating in the play-offs?   ;D

(And thanks for the CDS link, Philly.)

Asking for a bit of clarification on Post Season playoff scoring.  I'm probably wrong, but I thought we could post a change in predictions on one occassion if our previous picks made no sense due to an unforcasted win/loss?  I made and posted such a change that has proven to be correct to date...it is a wait and see on who wins the Super Bowl.

No big deal, just trying to get a handle on things.  ?.?.?

It'll be Griese... ::) ... [smiley=shootmyself.gif]

...

Anyway, also, everyone, there was a mistake in the stats.  Manning's rushing touchdown went unaccounted for.  It's fixed now...  Sorry, guys and gals, :-[ and thanks, Jeff, for getting my back on that in a timely manner. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Thanks!  I enjoy this format every year.  

Thanks Steg for running this.  It is enjoyable and keeps me interested in the probowl, which otherwise I would not have watched.
