Sports Playoffs/Tournament Pool

[Perianne]

I am starting a playoff pool for bragging rights. This will be held week-to-week. So even if you pick 2 of 4 incorrectly the first week, you might still be able to make it up with later games. After the games are played each week, I will keep tally of who is leading in the pool. It might be fun!

This weekend's games:

Saturday, January 9

Kansas City Chiefs at Houston Texans at 4:35 pm EST

Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals at 8:15 pm EST


Sunday, January 10

Seattle Seahawks at Minnesota Vikings at 1:05 pm EST

Green Bay Packers at Washington Redskins at 4:40 pm EST

[Perianne]

My picks:

Kansas City defeats Houston

Cincinnati defeats Pittsburgh


Seattle defeats Minnesota

Washington defeats Green Bay

[jimnyc]

Cincinnati defeats Pittsburgh

Not very nice, Ms. Perianne!! :poke:

Seattle over Minnesota (game might hit -9 degrees as a low and game will likely be around zero degrees)
Green Bay over Washington

I could not agree more.

Hey, I don't mind hitting someone like a freight train, but you're talking about someone's livelihood. That ain't part of playing a game.

In the KC-Houston game, one of the KC defenders got away with a textbook martial arts forearm to Hoyer's head as he was going down. And it was a total cheap shot. Where were the ref's on THAT one and where's the NFL today fining and/or suspending that KC Chief? They were up 30-0 so what exactly was the point?

[jimnyc]

Read about the scumbag who did it - Vontaze Burfict, and go and watch the videos on the linked page. This thug has a LONG history of cheap shots. Look at the videos of this year when he was twisting ankles of Cam Newton, Olsen and other players. And he was find again just last week for a head to head shot on another WR.

---

Vontaze Burfict is facing a suspension for his hit on Antonio Brown Saturday night, reports Adam Schefter. While the shoulder-to-helmet hit may not have necessitated this discipline in a vacuum, Burfict had another questionable play in that game, and has a history with the Steelers in general, as well as a history of other dicey plays.

On the sack of Ben Roethlisberger that sent the quarterback to the locker room with a separated shoulder, Burfict (who led the league in unnecessary roughness penalties this season, and had 22 “flagrant” penalties in 37 games at Arizona State) appeared to knee him after he was already down:

urfict, who is an immensely talented player, went low on Roethlisberger when the Bengals played the Steelers in Week 14:

After that game, Pittsburgh players refused to shake Burfict’s hand; the linebacker was fined almost $70,000 for the low hit (which went uncalled), as well as two unnecessary roughness penalties.

It was Burfict whose tackle in Week 8 put star running back Le’Veon Bell out for the year:

While the play in and of itself was not dirty, Steelers players took exception to Burfict’s celebration of it. “He’s that type of guy,” said Steelers offensive lineman Ramon Foster. “That type of guy gets his sooner or later. So, wait and see, I guess. He’s that type of guy, period. If you’re on the field with him, you know what I mean by that. They’ll play it off; he’ll act dumb about it. But you don’t run across the field hyped, celebrating, jumping up and down when a guy goes down like that.”

Burfict also had this helmet-to-helmet hit on Maxx Williams of the Ravens in Week 17 (on the bottom of the screen):

“I think instances like that that are so clearly premeditated that he had in his mind if those opportunities, that he was going to try to attack not only guys’ legs, but guys who were coming off ankle problems specifically, there’s no room for it,” said Olsen. “I think the punishment needs to go beyond a fine. Guys like that don’t learn from that stuff. He’s been fined a hundred times for head hunting, and he did it to Kelvin (Benjamin) again. You watch the film, that’s just what he is.”

Thing is, I'd go out of my way to f*ck him up. I forget who the idiot was that gave Jim Kiick a cheap shot and put him out for the season. I think it was Fred Williamson of the Chiefs. Two plays later Larry Csonka breaks free, has a straight shot for the end zone and diverts his path to run Williamson over. You used to could do that.

Lester Hayes was just as bad. Paralyzed Daryl Stingley and bragged about it.

There's no call for that kind of shit. Play the game. Because that's what it is ... a game.

[jimnyc]

Lester Hayes and the Raiders of that day, oh man, now THAT was some seriously cheap shot bastards back then! And yeah, this "defenseless receiver" stuff, it used to be that you get a badge of honor of you knocked someone silly. But there is a difference between nasty ass hard hits that have ill effects - and someone who isn't looking to hit hard, but looking to be cheap and purposely hurt. And that's this Burfict character.

And that's this Burfict character.

I totally agree. I knock you silly. Football, in the ring ... but I've never cheap shotted anyone. I HAVE retaliated. Believe THAT. There's a difference between playing hard and playing dirty. This one lineman kept spearing me in the shins with his helmet. I finally gave him two warnings. Two plays later he had to be replaced. :halo9:

Unfortunately for me, his replacement was a guy I powerlifted with at the gym. Needless to say, we played our own game the rest of the night. :laugh:

I actually didn't see the Steelers game. I thought it was on Sunday for some reason. I was sick all week and playing dead cockroach on the couch so who knows why. The crap from that KC Chief was unnecessary as Hell. You got a 30-0 lead, what's the point to a cheap shot? Anyone think Hoyer is going to make a miraculous comeback from a 30 point deficit in the late 4th quarter? I don't think he can even score 30 points. He can't throw worth sh*t, that's for sure.

And now it seems as if he is hurt more than originally stated, some torn ligaments. day to day as to whether he plays at all. :( And they said Brown may not play either.

If that throwback doesn't play I'll be surprised. He reminds me of ...... me. Only he's bigger. Injuries have killed the Steelers this year. Go figure. Back in the 70s they won two in a row, didn't make 75 because injuries decimated the team. Then won 2 more.

If it wasn't FUBAR they wouldn't know how to act.

Green Bay Packers at Arizona Cardinals 8:15 pm EST

Sunday, January 17

Seattle Seahawks at Carolina Panthers 1:05 pm EST
Pittsburgh Steelers at Denver Broncos 4:40 pm EST

New England - Looks like Edelman is back and ready to go
Arizona
Carolina - And LTG, don't kill me, but I wouldn't be surprised if Seattle wins this. I think being home is HUGE in this game.
Denver - Ben hasn't even thrown since last week, Antonio ruled out, no DeAngelo Williams. I hope I'm wrong, but just too many injuries

Cardinals and Packers is a toss-up. Depends on which Packers show up to play.

I don't think the Cheathawks can beat the Panthers as long as the Panthers play their own game.

That is correct Gunny....^^^

We beat them at their House...Im sure they want revenge real bad to beat us at our house now and of course Move forward....Should be a fun game to watch.

The Cheatriots are at it again. Amendola just speared a Chief under the chin which was TOTALLY unnecessary since it was on a punt TO the Cheatriots.

I just know how injuries can decimate a team is all. I made a pick based on the facts in front of me. Making picks based on those facts doesn't really make a "bet".

Talking smack, then hiding when their team chokes, then reappearing after the Steelers lose in their 2nd playoff game... How did the crow taste? :)

My Jets weren't even expected to contend this year....

After going 5-11 in 2014-2015 season to come back to 10-6 and almost make the playoffs isn't eating crow... It's improvement.

The Steelers were supposed to contend.... The Jets Weren't.

No shame in the Jets Game this year... and we had injuries all year as well....

With that said, you DID start the trash talk suddenly about the Jets/Steelers prematurely in week 16, only to see your team knocked out a week later and the Steelers go into the playoffs. That shitty feeling and taste in your mouth when they got knocked out, knowing you just trash talked a week earlier? - that's the crow.

New England - I know the game is in Denver, but NE is looking really good right now. Denver beat my Steelers, but I don't think Manning looked real impressive against a shitty defense.
Carolina - Superman is superman, and home field advantage is also huge in this game too. Gonna be an awesome game, I hope! But I think we're seeing a NE - Carolina SB this year.

I just always go WITH my team... even in desperate situations where they are the underdog.

I still rooted for them against NEW ENGLAND who they beat... I NEVER bet against the JETS...EVER.

Being faithful to my team comes first.... betting and the pool numbers are inconsequential.

You bet on your team to LOSE... OUTRIGHT... I would never go against the Jets... even in a no win situation.

Truthfully... I am all for eliminating the Divisional Playoff System... top 6 teams in each conference make it to the playoffs.

no way a 9-7 team should make the playoffs ( Texans) while 10-6 teams (Jets) dont make it..

Make it about WINS and WINS ALONE... not these stupid namby pamby pansy assed tiebreakers you get with divisional play.

​Honestly...I dont feel Payton looks forward to playing the Panthers...he`s getting up there in age and kinda frail looking...But...You might get your wish...I dont want to see anyone hurt...but I have a bad feeling for him....Trust me on this...But...Good for him beating a weakened Patriots team in a close game...I was actually hoping the Panthers would play the Patriots (cause we owed them payback and they might make more of a challenge for the Panthers):laugh:

So be it....One thing we know it will be an Interesting game...Because I know the Panthers are going to go after Payton in a big way...

What I see in this game was SB V. Cowboys vs the Colts. The defenses are going to rule and the mistakes will decide the game.

Carolina destroys them.

I see a game that comes down to who makes the most mistakes. IF Denver lets Cam become a factor, they're screwed. If they can keep his ass rattled like they did Brady, not so much. Simple gameplan but you have to be able to play it. Keep Cam between the hashmarks and shut down his receivers.

On the other hand, Manning can be scared out of his game. He can get hurt and HE knows it. Then the ball starts going everywhere. Not good with a team that is +28 in takeovers.

If I watch the game at all it'll be because I'm bored shitless. I could care less who wins.

The only thing I care about in this particular game is what I pointed out. I want to see who can play a game Chess. I could care less who actually wins. Can't be a real SB without the Steelers, Cowboys or Dolphins. Anything else is x's and o's to me.

I hope Carolina murders those bastards by the bushel.

[Jeff]

I see a game that comes down to who makes the most mistakes. IF Denver lets Cam become a factor, they're screwed. If they can keep his ass rattled like they did Brady, not so much. Simple gameplan but you have to be able to play it. Keep Cam between the hashmarks and shut down his receivers.

On the other hand, Manning can be scared out of his game. He can get hurt and HE knows it. Then the ball starts going everywhere. Not good with a team that is +28 in takeovers.

If I watch the game at all it'll be because I'm bored shitless. I could care less who wins.

I have to agree with ya Gunny, if it wasn't for the going to the club house and having a party I wouldn't watch at all probably. But I can't stand John Elway so nothing else matters, just want to see him loose.

I wish your team the best of luck. I quit actually putting effort into caring about the NFL LONG ago when it became more about politics and rules than playing the game. The 60s and 70s were the time I enjoyed it because (A), I was playing; and (b), we went out to knock your socks off. Not to injure anyone, but to play the game. Probably couldn't even tell you who won the Superbowl last year. Matter of fact, I can't. :laugh:

If you're looking for a little rivalry, see if you can find a Denver fan (good luck with THAT). The only reason I even care about Peyton winning one more for the road is because I LOVED Archie Manning. If Peyton had to take the beating Archie did on the "Aint's" he'd already be gone.

The NCAA basketball tourney is coming soon. Selection Sunday is in five days. I will do the same thing with basketball that we did with NFL, except it will be more difficult. I will lay out the brackets and tally the records. We will pick day-by-day. You guys who play with have to hurry with your picks as you will only have a short time before they play again. And I will have to hustle to keep up, but I am up to it.

My one and only time of being a good sport. Since a lot of folks guess... Holy Cross has been good enough for a record of 14-19 this year. Southern U is 22-12 this year.

UK starts up against Stony Brook, and my first though was that they had an easy game playing the #13 seed out of 16 in their bracket, but Stony has had an excellent year! Then again, Kentucky has been coming on strong here towards the end, and have just recently beat Florida, LSU & Tex A&M. They better not get soft here in the tourney!!

Last place :(

I've always told you that you suck. Geez, but last place? That's embarrassing. Always having to give lessons to little brothers. Damn.

The team that gets to play their game is the team that wins and guessing at it is futile. We'll fast track the NBA as an example: The Spurs and Warriors seem shoe ins, right? All you got to do to the Spurs is make them run. And all you got to do to the Warriors is stop them from running. Whichever team wins that game, goes to the finals.

I think I used up all of my smarts by winning the NFL pool. :)

Honestly, I've always sucked in the 64 brackets. I usually lose some big teams before it hits the round of 32 and am knocked out already!! All I care about is Kentucky winning it all!!

[WiccanLiberal]

I know very little about these tournaments. I don't usually follow basketball but I am happy to see my alma mater doing rather well. Go Seawolves!

[Gunny]

I think I used up all of my smarts by winning the NFL pool. :)

Honestly, I've always sucked in the 64 brackets. I usually lose some big teams before it hits the round of 32 and am knocked out already!! All I care about is Kentucky winning it all!!

I honestly don't watch college basketball during March. It's absurd. This tournament - that tournament -- and you can lose every tournament and still be #1. I think I only know UT lost last night (?) because I accidentally had the news on.

It aggravates me FAR greater I can't ever find anything to watch during March because every damned channel is running a damned basketball game. Except Fox. They like to put on soccer. Oh friggin yea!:rolleyes: So I get the 10 millionth rerun of Rambo or Rocky.
