Thanks for the heads up Matt.

Guys, I told Tony last night, because no one had responded yet, that his puts and takes were good to go. He is heading to drop the package off now, and then leaving town on a flight this morning and won't be back until Sunday evening.

He wanted to be proactive and get the pass into the mail for the next person, so when I looked at it, I thought it looked good...so that being said, I'll take the MOW puro (one of his extra sticks) when the pass comes to me and replace it with a different stick. But the rest looks good to me if it's cool with everyone else.

I think that he met our criteria with the other 2 extras Cole. You shouldn't have to replace the MOW with a premium. Perhaps you should just nab it when the box gets to you as a bonus for running the league.

:-) Thanks Mark. Just wanted to make sure everything was good being that Tony wanted to keep the pass moving, and I gave him the go ahead.
[Reply]

I agree with Mark 100%. Just pull it and do what you do. It certainly doesn't need to be replaced.
[Reply]

Agreed, the other two extras were more than enough.

Even when I try to favor myself in a bet...it seems I still have a chance to lose! :-) :-) Prior to week 3, the NFC had 35 int's thrown, AFC had 25.

Here is where the bet stands before tonight's game between Denver and Oakland (both AFC teams):
-NFC teams have thrown 16 int's this week...no games left
-AFC teams have thrown 14 int's this week...2 teams play tonight

So I need this game to have 1 total int or less for me to finally win a legit bet against you!!! I'm pretty sure I'll be paying up yet again :-)
[Reply]

Huh...I bet everyone and won. Let's roll that bet for another week...somebody beat me this time! :-)
[Reply]

Yeah I was looking at it, and I was like...well...that was a sh!tty way to support the troops Matt, bet everyone and win! lol :-)
[Reply]

HAHAHAHAHA I WIN!!!!!

This is the best day of my life! No interceptions thrown last night! Ha the past is history, you suck Shilala, you can't beat me!! I am 1-0 against Scott (again, all other past is history)! :-) :-)
[Reply]

Matt, check this...

Here is what I have for current Troops Sticks balances based on what was sent in and what has been bet so far:

Shilala, balance of 95 sticks (after entry had 125 sticks for betting)
Chaase321, owes 9 sticks (after entry had 6 sticks for betting)
Sofaman, balance of 24 sticks (after entry had 24 sticks for betting)
Mattso3000, balance of 59 sticks (after entry and prior year bal had 69 sticks for betting)
mkarnold1, owes 1 stick (after entry had 14 sticks for betting)
malakai, balance of 35 sticks (after entry had 35 sticks for betting)
Tjarv, balance of 21 sticks (after entry had 21 sticks for betting)
Beeradvocate, balance of 2 sticks (after entry had 2 sticks for betting)
Coach_Deg, owes 20 sticks (also owes 6 entry)
JenksAnejo, balance of 0 sticks (also owes 6 entry)

So based on me taking out the required 6 entry troop sticks from what everyone sent in, their original betting balance is in " ( ) " and based on what I have been following from the bets in the thread, these should be the betting balances left. Just so everyone knows where they stand! :-)

by the way....get to betting people!!! Scott is always up for a bet, and as you can see...Goliath can be taken down by David! :-) I don't want to send anyone sticks back, so get through your betting balances...and preferably, bet more so you can send me more! We need to make this a record year, and get to like 600 sticks for the troops! :-) :-)

Scott how about we put 5 on our best QB/WR combo, only counting our starting rosters
[Reply]

Congratulations, Cole!!! :-)
Tony, you're on.
Anybody else wants a bet, I'm your huckleberry.
[Reply]

Hey Mark, wanna do a 5'er on our toilet bowl matchup?
[Reply]

Got the pass today guys. Pics tomorrow!

Put me down for an extra 20 troop sticks to catch up a little bit. :-)
[Reply]

Scott, want to do a two team draft for 10 troop sticks? I'll give you first pick of the other 10 teams then I'll pick two serpentine style with you getting the last pick. High combined score from the two teams picked wins.
[Reply]

You're on Cole. I might have a QB break 10 this week. Look out!
[Reply]

This seems right up Scott's alley! :-) Sucks for whoever gets Mark's or my team! :-)

Sweet! I am going to start the new rookie QB for TB, so I'm obviously looking for huge points out of my QB! (*read, scraping the bottom of the barrel!)
[Reply]

Certainly.
I'll pick Travis (stabbingcacti) first.
[Reply]

I'll take Sofaman and TDs and Beer.
[Reply]

I'll take TJarv and chaase

Scott: Stabbingcactii, Tjarv, chaase
Matt: Sofaman, TDsandbeer

I think I only get one pick here, if it's gonna work out so I get last pick. So I'll still take Tjarv. If you don't want chaase with your pick, that'll be my next pick.
