c0ldfuse: Jun 18, 2004; The pursuit of excellence.

As a Vikings fan lemme tell you misery loves company. Thus the Sam Bradford LMAO challenge.

History (starts midway down page): https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3774234&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=81

And in case I don't make it through the season, I got a gift card which I'll share with a co-leader of the challenge (see winner's gifts at end of post)

BEFORE SEASON STARTS (answers to these must be made by start of season, if you are entering late your total for these answers is 50% of max)

1) Sam Bradford will play [ X ] games this season, where "play" is defined as making a single COMPLETED pass during the course of the game (32pts max, number of points depend on how close answer is with each game counting as 2 points. For example if I guess 6 games and he plays 9, I'd get 26 points from this answer)

2) Sam Bradford will miss a game due to the following reason (25pts, can select as many as desired however it halves/multiplies your points. If you choose two and only one of your two choices occurs, you get 12.5 points. If both choices occur, you'd get 50pts)
a) Injury on-field
b) Injury off-field
c) No Injury
d) Benched in favor of other QB (can only be used as an adder w/ injury guess)
c) Cut from team
d) Traded
e) [ Fill in Answer ]

3) Sam Bradford LMAO's top three choices of best "in-season" Steak photo (see below for more info), points 20, 15, 10 for places.

DURING SEASON -- Each of these can be answered every week Sam Bradford "plays". If Bradford does not play no points are awarded.

1) Completion % during play--10 points, each 1% off up or down results in deduction of a point. If you're off by 10% you get zero points.

2) Quarterback rating--10 points, each 1% off up or down results in deduction of a point. If you're off by 10% you get zero points.

3) Interceptions--10 Points, only get them if correct.

4) SUNDAY DOUBLER - Bet ANY amount of current points you have currently accumulated before the game starts that Bradford will be pulled out of the game for an injury for at least 4 Viking possessions. If you win your bet is doubled. If you lose you retain zero of the bet points.

5) Sam Bradford LMAO appreciation station: Post an image of a cooked steak with Sam Bradford playing during the game time on TV in the background +10 points (can only use once during season)

WINNERS:
1st Place - H.F.'s Outstanding Flat Iron Steak Choice, 7 Ounce (Pack of 4) (https://www.amazon.com/H-F-s-Outsta.../dp/B0199STK4A/)
2nd Place - Jack Link's Premium Cuts Beef Steak, Original, 1-Ounce (Pack of 12) (https://www.amazon.com/Jack-Links-P...e/dp/B00QGHE6HY)
3rd Place - Avatar of choice for individual of choice which includes steak in some way, shape, or form.

Quick note that I need someone else to help me run this in case I get busy at work or something. Also if you can help by self scoring quoting your original post and doing the math after each game I'd love you forever--it really cuts down on amount of work I need to do.

1) Games - 7 (going to get destroyed due to our terrible o-line)
2) Injury on field, Adding a rider that it is due to a Vikings player either falling on him running into him etc

Game 1:
1) 45% completion
2) 78 rating
3) 2 INT

EDIT: editing after making an adjustment to game, note edit time.

2) a) Injury on field b) benched in favor of other QB (that didn't appear to be a choice)

Game 1:

I could probably set up the score sheet so it scores automatically.

He's not playing week 1 is he?

There is no way he doesn't go out week 1 after what we traded for him. Feel free to edit your post provided edit time is before G1 kickoff.

You can only score points if he plays. If he doesn't play it's zeros across the board.

In light of this I'll give a does not take a single snap option for first game change if anyone wants it for 20 points. However if he does take a snap you get -20.

Offer good until kickoff.

If you bet numbers for game 1 and he doesn't play you don't lose anything.

I'd take a good look at our preseason tapes before you bet he doesn't come in.
