I'm in SoCal. In the situation that I do win a box, just send me what you love to drink locally and I'll be cool with that. Stouts with adjuncts are welcome as are ales/lagers/etc.

edit: buy lots of milkshake smoothies for your box when they're on sale now to counter-jinx my opponent ^^^

Thanks for updating me all.

I spent almost $200 at Treehouse Brewing here in Mass and no, recipient, You won't be getting all of it but you'll probably be getting about half of that in addition to a bunch of other random stuff.

This is a good league and I'm happy to be a part of it again this year. :cheers:

despite my horrible use of free agent funds throughout the season, i think i've won. big ups to metcalf for finally justifying how much i paid for him and mac jones for running up a tecmo bowl score, plus a special shout to the espn algorithm that believed in me from the start (even if it kinda lost faith after a while).

i know a few games are still up in the air, but good season and i'm already looking forward to the next one...

Great season everyone.

Just goes to show that luck is a huge factor when Boswell out scores Chubb to win.

I’ll take 3rd place considering I lost both my starting RB’s (CMC & Carson) for the season, my TE and QB for 4+ weeks.

With that being said, I’m in Texas and like any IPA, Stout, Porter, or cool variation you think is worth enjoying.

Not huge on sours though.

As per usual I'll have shipping assignments posted within the next 48 hours. A reminder that beer boxes are due out shortly after the league ends, with the target date being before February 8, 2022. :siren:Shipping is a huge mess right now but that's all the more reason to get everything out as soon as possible!:siren: Please remember to send me a receipt/tracking number when you've sent your shipment.

I remember a few years ago, in this league, I had a regular season matchup where I had a 4-point lead against some team that had, IIRC, Saquon, Engram and the Giants kicker still to play on Monday. As I remember it, Engram did jack squat. Saquon did a little bit but mostly got shut down and had a fumble after my opponent finally took the lead. They took a less than a point lead into the game late and then their kicker shanked one and I won that matchup by something like .6.

That game has stuck with me and I had it on my mind from the moment I got up yesterday morning.

I take some comfort that my high score stood up the rest of the season, while my team enthusiastically poo poo the bed most of the following weeks.

I'm in Richmond, Virginia and I'll drink just about anything

:siren: Shipping assignments are in!:siren:



Please PM your assigned recipient for their address and to check for requests! If you're not quite sure how to ship beer feel free to ask; most of us have done this before and are happy to help. My own general advice is to bubble wrap your bottles individually and place each one in a Ziploc bag. Pack your box tight so that your bottles and/or cans don't slip all over the place in the package. Shipping is probably still hosed so try and give yourself plenty of time before the due date, February 8. I've had better luck shipping beer with UPS personally but have no idea how they're handling things these days.


---SHIPPING ASSIGNMENTS

1: Funkybottoms (Ice Cole Beersley) 5 Boxes
-Zam
-B_Sketchy
-Alfalfa
-Wild Man of Yolo
-Coronaball

2: YamataNoOrochi (Barrel-aged Tom Brady) 3 Boxes
-Yellow Dart
-Ayudo
-Veritek83

3: Alfalfa (Case of Rogue Dead Guys) 2 Boxes
-Spacejung
-Quiet Feet

4: Coronaball (Pliny the Younghoe Koo) 1 Box (Consolation)
-Funkybottoms

5: Veritek83 (Saison Barley) 1 Box (Hi-score trophy)
-YamataNoOrochi



Some of these are going a long way but that's the nature of the beast with four of us on the east coast, four on the west (and three of those clumped around LA!) and only one of the winners in what we'll call the middle of the country. I try to prioritize variety but Funkybottoms, you'll be getting two boxes from California. Hopefully from different enough regions that the boxes will still be varied.

Cool cool.

I'm always too optimistic about how quick I'm going to ship. Should have mine out in the next couple of days after delays due to A: snow, B: random life crap, C: running out of packing tape and D: trying to sort out all the poo poo I bought.

Every year by mid-October I can't go to the bottle shop without spotting something that looks nifty and telling myself "Oh, I'll buy one of those for beer league!" The end result is I've looked through my fridge and realized I had probably 25-30 bottles/cans I bought with an eye on sending them out and uuuuh, no I cannot do that. So I've had to root through the beer fridge and curate a bit.

I'm running a postseason fantasy contest at myfantasyleague.com. $20 entry fee. Details below. PM me your email address if you want an invitation.

Starting lineup requirements:
1 QB
1 RB
2 WR
1 TE
2 Flex (RB/WR/TE)
1 Defense

Every player on a playoff team is available for you to start, but you can only start each player one time for the entirety of the postseason. You have until kickoff of each player's individual game to get them in your lineup. Technically, you don't have to submit a lineup until Monday at 8:00 PM EST, but at that point, you'd only be able to start Cardinals and Rams. Come to think of it, you don't have to submit a lineup at all if you wanted to just donate $20 for the fun of it.

Once an NFL champion is crowned, payouts will be made to the owners with the three highest cumulative scores. Payout amounts will be determined when the list of owners has been finalized.

1. funkybottoms box arrived on my porch on Friday and it was incredible. My wife and I killed the west coast IPA crowler immediately, and I've also got into the porter and two of the many stouts already.
2. I am no longer infected with the coronavirus.
3. I made 2 out of 3 stops for my return offering, one more tomorrow, shipping out tomorrow or Tuesday.
4. Jimmy G has wracked my nerves for the last time. It's freeing, in a way.
