Title: NFL Last Man Standing Pick 'Em 2016
Post by: Hoopz on August 24, 2016, 09:35:32 am
I have ran this for close to a decade now and Chad ran it the first few years.  I was going to post it later in August, but I'm bored at work today and may not have time next week to do it.

Rules are simple.  Choose one game each week.  Pick the winner.  If you are wrong you are eliminated from the game.  Last man standing wins.  I will keep track of everyone's picks each week and display them by editing this post. 

When making a pick, highlight it in the post, so that they're easier to pick out.  I don't want to miss anyone's pick.  If you don't know how to highlight it, copy somebody else's pick and change the color name if you want.

A pick must be made every week.  Failure to make a pick results in elimination.   Picks should be posted in this thread so that people have the ability to double check my work.

You cannot pick a game with the same team two weeks in a row.  If you pick the Rams over the Titans in week 2, you cannot use either the Rams game or the Titans game in week 3.  Having everyone help with this will eliminate the possibility of a mistake on my end on this item.  You can pick a team multiple times over the season. 

Entrant pool closes an hour preceding the game you want to pick.  That means that if you want to pick Thursday's game this week you must do so at least an hour before the game starts.  Forum timestamps will be binding.

Good luck to all.  As always my goal is to make it out of Week 1 this year.  And the winner does receive forum rep points.

I 100% agree.  I had hoped the collarbone injuries would push him out last year.  Brain still functioning, hot wife, get out while your dick and brain still work.

Aikman retired at 34 because of his back injuries.  Romo's 36.  I doubt he can come back from this and be effective. 

And they'd have beat GB a couple of years ago except the NFL doesn't know what a catch is (hint: Dez caught that ball).

We all know that was Karma paying them back for the week before, when they should have lost to the Lions.

I'll disagree.  Karma is the Lions always being losers for what they did to Barry Sanders.  Only team in the history of the NFL that's been around since the Super Bowl that has never played in it.  Screw them and their ---smurfy--- organization.

People say that.  Then they look at a table full of Lombardi trophies.  Every player in the NFL is cheating in any way they can.  That is football culture at pretty much all levels.  Football is a dirty cheat filled game.  If people really hate cheaters so much then they should stick with that moral choice and avoid football entirely.


BTW, Aikman retired because of concussions, not his back.  Apparently the need for integrity doesn't apply to the medical staffs or the league itself.

Best thing about dating a Patriots fan is they dont care if you cheat.  The NFL has been on a steady decline of talent and likable players. The NHL is gaining momentum in talent while the NFL seems to be losing it.

Actually, I'm a Buccaneers fan, which means I'm happy if you show up at all and don't embarrass us.


The NFL has always been mostly unlikable people.  The difference now is ever increasing direct access to those unlikable people.


The NHL works in cycles.  Every 10 years or so they start to gain and then they shoot themselves in the face by taking teams from good strong hockey communities and putting them in bigger US TV markets where nobody cares and nobody will ever care.  Then they expand and put a new team in a market where nobody cares.  They just won't accept that hockey is Canadian and needs to remain primarily Canadian in order to have a sustainable core business.

I may actually agree with Chad on hockey.  Seems like I've lived through two cycles of "hockey players are bigger, faster, and stronger than NFL players and the NHL is about to explode!"

Football is probably going to decline long term from all the concussion concerns.  I've talked to neurologists, neuropsychologists, neuroscientists, etc etc, been to presentations, negotiated clinical trials for sideline diagnostic tools, and basically all anyone can tell me is "not sure" and "soccer is more dangerous."  Problem is those guys retire in their late 20s and have 30 years of alcohol and drug abuse ahead of them.  Football or no football some of us are going to have early onset neurodegeneration.

The main problem is that with each cycle they permanently alienate more of their core Canadian fans.  I grew up playing hockey, was a die hard Nordiques fan, and should now be a serious NHL follower.  Instead I have watched maybe 3 NHL games in the last 5 years and those were at someone else's house.  Guys like me should be their main fanbase but we are scorned and either moved on to hockey in another form or just moved on entirely.

And all of us know someone who has that.  Their whole denial bit flies in the face of common sense and generations of direct observation.  Anyone our age has seen it first hand.  Anyone older than us grew up watching boxing.  Soon enough we're going to see a whole generation of 40 year old former MMA fighters that can't make themselves sandwiches.  These are all adults, they are making their own choices, but damn don't lie about it.  Just put it out there and let everyone make their choices.

Well, yes, there's clearly a small percentage that are permanently impaired from concussions.  We can't predict who it's going to be, though there's tons of interesting research with a lot of interest from the military and the NFL.  I don't think it's completely out of the realm of possibility that officer candidates have to submit to a functional MRI within the next 20 years.

The functional MRI is only so useful without the baseline MRI having already been taken before the trauma.  That's the problem.  They have to invest in the data harvesting in order to have something with which to compare.  They offer these at our high school in the fall for athletes but it's not cheap.  I haven't heard of many parents spending the money.  It is encouraging that the possibility even exists though I'm sure it isn't available to lower income areas.

Post by: pbj on August 30, 2016, 12:12:25 pm
They're working to eliminate the need for a baseline MRI.  The company I was working with basically had a headband and an android device and could do an assessment in about 10 minutes.  From what I saw, a trained monkey could run the app.  The trial was proving that device was as good as conventional methods, so "at risk populations" were going to be base lined, given the usual batteries, and then brought in again after blows to the head.  Would also be checked at the end of the season.

So cheaper and quicker diagnostics are coming... the money to be made off of it is awe inspiring.

NHL was doing fine until the 94 lockout that shortened the season and spurred a lot of fans. They finally recovered from that and things were looking good then BAM the 04-05 lockout that cancelled the season instead of shortening it like they did in 94. Finally get momentum going after that and BAM! Another lockout in 2012 that shortened the season. 

Im kinda glad you arent a hockey fan, its one less thing we could have in common. Guess the good thing is you aren't a Bruins fan either. No one is a Buccaneers fan.

Try asking a Nordiques, Flames, North Stars, (original) Jets, or Whalers fan and see if they tell you the real problem was work stoppages.


BTW, try to be a civil person, it's not that hard.  Nobody has been insulting you in this thread.

Don't see where I insulted you chaddles, don't be a Nancy pants.

I was a nordiques fan, stayed with them when they went to colorado. I liked the Flyers too cause they are my local team. So when the Flyers sent all my favorite players to the Aves for Lindross I became a super Aves fan. Roy was just icing on the cake.

Teams moved because ticket sales slumped or the teams just couldn't stay profitable in the markets. I dont think a team was making money hand over fist with a great fanbase, with every game sold out every night just up and switched cities. So yeah, as a Nordiques fan , stoppages had the bigger negative impact on the NHL over team relocations/expansions

If he has an up and down first half of the season, think Romo gets the job back when he is ready to play?

Of course he does. Starters don't lose their job to injury. If he comes back and sucks though, they'll probably pull him right away.

Given that the choices for New England at QB are either a rookie who has never started in the NFL or a WR who was a QB in college it's hard even for people here to pick the Patriots.  If the Patriots manage to win this one the Texans are going to have to seriously blow it AND Belichick is going to have to pull some all time Houdini moves.

Patriots were the laughing stock of pro sports for 20+ years.  They were 48 hours away from loading trucks and moving to St Louis as late as the mid 90s.  For the majority of their history they were consistently terrible.  The sad part is that there is a generation of fans here that were born after 2001.  These fans don't even remember Drew Bledsoe nevermind Steve Grogan.

I bet the Patriots totally could win with Romo at QB.  They'd be intelligent enough to take him out of the game in the fourth quarter.  Replace him with a tackling dummy and go 10 on 11. 


He'd probably still call a fourth time out or something from the sideline.

Thanks.  You can see how much attention I'm paying to the NFL this year.


Week 6:  Cardinals over Jets


Hey, I looked it up, and at least I was right with that pick.  Heh.  I guess I missed a rare Bucs appearance on MNF and didn't know it.

I tried to watch part of that game.  My god, was that ridiculously awful, just boring and slow.  Even with Sean McDonough, who for people in Boston carries a lot of nostalgia, it was just terrible television.

McDonough did the Red Sox games for 16 years so it's very very familiar here.  He's not well suited to football, though.  The guy has no excitement to him.

HAHA, well I havent exactly been keeping up with football. I knew the Bears only had 1 win, and the Vikes only had 1 loss but I didnt know Adrien Peterson was injured.
Every year I think "Im just going to pick the patriots all the time like everyone else" but thats no fun so I limit them to 1 pick.

I was destined not to win because I was going to pick the Seahawks over the Saints, Packers over the Falcons , or the Eagles over the Cowboys.......so I was ---fouled up beyond all recognition--- no matter which game I went for lol.

They are great this year. I live near Philly the hatred for the Cowboys this year is.......hilarious. I'll always be more of a hockey fan than football, so I don't really give a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- about the whole "Eagles/Cowboys rivaly" but its funny to me to see "grown ups" lose their ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- over a football game. For the most part it was actually a good game. But, if you can make Elliot stop his stupid "eating with a spoon" move after every single rush over 4 yards, that'd be great. Its almost as annoying as every single player signaling a first down every time they get a first down.

I'm sorry bruh, Dallas isn't nearly as good as everyone thinks.  Philly would have beat them had they not shot themselves in the foot.  I think what Dak has done is admirable but he's no probowler.   He has benefited from the best OL in football and a dynamic rusher in Elliott.  We will see but I think they are destined for playoff failure.

Speaking of destined for playoff failure, it sure would be nice if my Falcons would make up their mind and either be good or really ---smurfy---, my heart can't take these games...

I couldn't stomach anyone else but the Packers! Atlanta Fans are so damn sensitive, the second Aaron Rodgers starts slinging touchdowns that stadium gets quiet quickly. The reason the fans can be taken out of the game so easily is because they are mostly band wagon fans at best.  And no I don't care if the Packers win every superbowl from now till eternity. Why? Because I also root for the Milwaukee Brewers and the Milwaukee Bucks so I know terrible franchises and heart break and if the Packers are my one chance to have a legitimate sports power during my life time, then so be it.

Cowboys basically saved the NFL this season.  Viewership was way down until the Cowboys started winning.

Ugh so many haters.... I can't wait until we curb stomp the Patriots, but even still some of ya'll going to be like yeah but yeah but yeah but....

Reminds me of when Tevin Coleman was coming out of Indiana, Matt Kelley had this glorious take on the RBs rated above him...

3 point spread, over under at 59.  Apparently neither defense is showing up.

Looks like A A ron done messed up....

The real MVP will be taking on the Evil Empire in Houston... 

Thank you Arizona for the second seed!

Sorry I was late to the party... I was out of town on business... but yeah A-rod and the Pack never showed up. Great game by the Falcons for sure. And now I am rooting for them to take down Brady. Go Falcons!

I'd be dumb to think that the Packers injuries didn't have a bit to do with our success, I got no ill will toward them.

Welcome to the Anti Tom/Hoody Bandwagon!

I'm indifferent about the Falcons (no offense) as they've been so mediocre for so long that no one really cares, but I'm tired of the Pats' bs so I'll room for Atlanta.  Just keep your DBs away from hookers on the night before the game this time.  Not having Dan Reeves on the sidelines helps too.

Meh, gotta root NFC so I guess it's Falcons for me.  Super Bowl ticket prices have taken a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- on Stub Hub.  Only $3,000!  If one of you wants to crash at my place, you can stay in my guest room for $1,000 a night.

How hard would it have been to run the ball three times and kick the field goal instead of losing 20+ yards on sacks/penalties and throwing an incomplete pass?  They had it and choked it away.   :dizzy:

31 unanswered points?  Biggest choke in Super Bowl history.

Ugh... that was an ugly loss. Feel for all those Falcon fans. Looks like the Patriots are going to re-up Bradys contract so he can play another 5 years. I was hoping the bastard would retire.  :afro:

Romo has retired and bumped  Phil Simms off CBS.  That was a great week for me.

I give you my permission to run it. I wont be playing, the NFL is pretty crummy so I'll be passively watching some college football till the NHL starts up.
