Week 9 Theme Week Winner Announcement

Due to literally the best play we've seen all season, our Week 9 Theme Week Actual Cash Prize Winner is...Acebuckeye13. Congrats Acebuckeye13! Please contact Buane to receive your prize.

Week 10 Theme Week Announcement

Alumni Weekend!

We've paid a lot of attention to players so far this season, but what about their roots, what about where they came from? Some players come from elite football factories like Alabama. Some come from little known schools like Mississippi Valley State University. And some come from schools where kiddie rape defenders are extolled as a saints (gently caress Penn State forever).

To honor the "student-athlete" this week's Theme Week winner will be the player who has a roster consisting of at least 3 players from the same school. You also need to state what school they went to because I don't know poo poo about college football and looking that up is going to be a PITA.

Token Reminder

To play a token please copy and paste the image as well as the name of the token after your Brady Number.

This year we will have 5 6 fun token flavors. But pay attention! These are new, awesome flavors and some of these tokens can come with a downside!

The ~~five~~ six current tokens in play are:

THE COX TOKEN

Thrusts through the line to stop your running game! You may play the Cox Token when your Brady Number is a Running Back. If your Brady Number would bust your score, this token will zero out their score!

THE OSWEILER TOKEN

A memorial to the greatest trade in history, the Osweiler token is a powerful reminder that teams can build via subtraction just as well as addition. You may play the Osweiler token regardless of your player's position. If your Brady Number would bust you, instead of adding points the Brady Number removes that many points from your score.

THE PRATER TOKEN

Kickers are people too! You may play the Prater token if your player is a Wide Receiver or Tight End. If your Brady Number would bust your score, this token will replace their score with the longest field goal in NFL history - 64 yards.

THE ILL-ADVISED RELOCATION TOKEN

Sometimes despite years of loyalty and good will you just have to chase after the dollar bills. You may play the Ill-Advised Relocation token if your Brady Number is a Quarterback because the fans only care about Quarterbacks! If your Brady Number would bust your score, this token will replace their score with the score of the opposing QB. For example, in Week 1 the LA Chargers are playing the Denver Broncos. If your Brady Number, Phillip Rivers, would bust you, you instead will get the score of Trevor Siemian. But since relocation doesn't always work out, if the replacement still busts you, tough luck!

THE 28-3 TOKEN

A reminder of the greatest choke job in all of sports and that no one should ever count out Touchdown Tom. If you declare the 28-3 token during a given week, it gets you 50 bonus points for a top 10 score and 100 bonus points for the best score of the week, but if you finish outside the top 10 you get zero, so you better manage that comeback! In addition, you can use the 28-3 token as much as you want if you keep getting the bonus, but if you use the 28-3 token and fail to make the top 10, you can't use it again for the entire rest of the season unless you hit a perfect thousand. Not for the faint at heart!

:siren:

NEW TOKEN ALERT :siren:

The Sandwich Montoya Token

A tribute to the greatest sandwich-based QB ever, Sandwich Montoya always gives it his all even if he can't really go ham. That's why if you bust while playing the Sandwich Montoya token you get 10 points added to your score because hey, at least you tried! One time use only, so make sure you save it for a week you really need it!

Here lie those who failed to achieve the impossible. Their cloud of shame shall forever hang above them...unless they score a perfect 1,000

(I assumed not ALL of our players have to be from the same school, just at least three of them. Is that correct?)

Correct! Just 3, I wanna make it a fun theme to do not something agonizing.

Been a bit busy this weekend, I'll try and post Brady numbers before MNF this evening.

Young Hegelian posted:

As Axeil and Fishing helpfully pointed out, I picked TNF instead of MNF in my rush yesterday to get picks in before the 4:00pm starts. In light of that, I would like to exchange Drew Stanton for Cam Newton. I had chosen Stanton because he was the QB I thought would put up more yards than his opposing QB.

In full disclosure, I expect to bust this week, and choosing a QB is strongly against my interests. Based on my calculations, I'm at 884 yards (because I'm terrible at this game). I am also willing to accept if anyone wants to demand that I have to take the higher of the two QB passing numbers for tonight.

Barring opposition:

B#: CAR - Cam Newton - Passing Yards

I'm cool with this, but if anyone has an objection please post itt. I figure the higher risk of busting is worse for Hegelian than just deleting the Brady # entirely.

Young Hegelian posted:

I'm amenable to this, BUT if the second-highest QB hits for 112 yards I get a token named after me.

This would be hilarious.
