FireDigger Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 Who's in this year? The only change from last year is that there won't be a dropped week, all weeks count! Again, the wager is 5 CCs (no cheapies ie. MM short fillers). I think 12 of the 13 participants from last year sent their cigars (obviously not including the top 3 finishers). I've invited everyone back through Yahoo! except for the member who did not send cigars.

khomeinist Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 This is quite a bit of fun if you enjoy college football and relatively painless wagering on Vegas lines. Cal Golden Bears. Yup. Yup.
FireDigger Posted August 3, 2011 Author Posted August 3, 2011 I'm not expecting much out of my teams (Texas and USC, undergrad and grad respectively) this year. Of course, gotta beat Cal right? This year's game is on a Thursday night. Man, just shows you how much both teams have fallen from their glory days 5-6 years ago. PS. Plato, PM sent.
FireDigger Posted August 8, 2011 Author Posted August 8, 2011 Bump! Season starts in 4 weeks. Here are the league settings: Confidence Points Yes Spread Yes Tiebreakers Yes Start Week 1 Drop Scores No, use all weeks Deadline 5 minutes before the first game of each week Games To Include Use Top 25 games
mikejh Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 so is there a weekly winner or just a winner for the season?
BoomerSooner Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 New to this forum. Any spots open for the college football. I can send CC's but if my picks are right, I wont have to worry? Also I have been on another forum for quite some time and have some members on this forum that I am confident will stand up for me.
FireDigger Posted August 8, 2011 Author Posted August 8, 2011 so is there a weekly winner or just a winner for the season? This is for the winner(s) of the whole season. Last year, we had the top 3 winning cigars out of a league of 14.
FireDigger Posted August 8, 2011 Author Posted August 8, 2011 New to this forum. Any spots open for the college football. I can send CC's but if my picks are right, I wont have to worry? Hey Boomer! I think I know you from the cA forum. I go by boknows there. I decided on a more modest screen name here. So the wager is 5 CCs, so if you are a winner, then people will send you cigars, and you won't have to send cigars to anyone. If we have less than 10, we'll just have winner-take-all. If like last year where we had 14 players, the top 3 ended up winning cigars with places 9-14 sending to #1, 6-8 sending to #2, and 4-5 sending to #3.
BoomerSooner Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 I saw Bo and wondered if that was you. I am in, if there is a spot. Just let me know what I need to do and you already no my #1 pick. Nice to know you are here!

Nice to know you are here! PM sent. ...and now I know where your bias lies. This game can be tricky since it is against the spread and involves confidence points. Some times your team affiliation can be your worst enemy.
BobKincaid Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I'm in, please. I enjoy college football more than any other sport. I'm a die-hard WV Mountaineer fan, but, having been born down south, pay the most attention to the SEC. LSU's coming to Morgantown next month and I'm hoping for a little revenge.
FireDigger Posted August 9, 2011 Author Posted August 9, 2011 PM sent, Bob. What's going on in Morgantown? It's been a weird off season for WV and their coaching situation huh? Now that Holgorsen is the head man, I think he and Geno Smith will put up some big numbers.
FireDigger Posted August 15, 2011 Author Posted August 15, 2011 Any more? We have 4 so far. Might have to change the league name since it doesn't look like anyone from ICC will return, LOL.
FireDigger Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 Bump... If you're interested, just ask. Don't worry, you won't get the Texas A&M treatment from me, LOL!
Plato Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 There has to be more NCAA Football fans out there on FOH. Cmon guyssss
FireDigger Posted August 18, 2011 Author Posted August 18, 2011 So far, we have 25 cigars in the pot. And if you need more reasons to watch college football this year... Hook'em Horns!
Plato Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I'm already in guys. Btw Firedigger, how many sticks were in the pot last year. -PLATOOOO
FireDigger Posted August 19, 2011 Author Posted August 19, 2011 I'm already in guys. Btw Firedigger, how many sticks were in the pot last year. -PLATOOOO We had 14 players last year, but many are not returning this year. I think we only had 1 or 2 deadbeats last year. If you go to my original post, there's a link to last year's thread. This year, we have 6 so far.
FireDigger Posted August 23, 2011 Author Posted August 23, 2011 About a week left until week 1 gets underway. The games are out for those who have joined. We have 8 so far, looking for a few more!
FireDigger Posted August 25, 2011 Author Posted August 25, 2011 Last call. We have 9 so far and the season kicks off one week from today!
FireDigger Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 I think we're set at 11, with the latest membership belonging to GreekGodX, last year's champ.
FireDigger Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 From now on, I'm moving all discussion about the league to the league message board. Please check it from time to time for info, questions, and trash talking!
