Week 8 is done…and so is…
HUR failed to make a pick for the week (and I even sent a reminder!) so he is out…RNT and BBA both took the Vikings in Monday Night Primetime to take care of business with the Bears…and both saw their 2016 Survivor season come to a screeching halt (should have stuck with the bet against the Browns plan)…Week 8 ends this competition in a tie between these two teams…Congrats!
Week 8 saw what appears to be our core group of 6 players return…everyone ate the London Tie Game and the Vikings…BAT managed to miss only 1 other play to win the Week at 67 confidence points…HUR missed only 4 games (you played this one but not Survivor?!?) to reach 58 points…but still finished behind RNT (61) and MNY (59) who both missed 5 games with better wagers…BBA (5 misses…53) and WAR (6 misses…50) brought up the rear…
For the Season…RNT remains in 1st at 624 confidence points…building the lead on BBA in 2nd with 597…but BAT closes the gap on both of them in 3rd place by 5 points at 592…HUR and MNY are on top of each other at 580 and 579…with WAR still playing catch up at 445…only 13 games again for Week 9 so every point counts…go make your picks right now…
MNY apparently does not like to pick TBFL winners so we only have a core 5 players returning here…everyone hit big on Hurricanes and everyone lost on X-Factor…RNT missed just the 1 game to win the Week with 18 confidence points…WAR missed 3 games…but 2 low wagers to end in 2nd with 14 points…HUR missed only 2 games but a bigger wager on Money Inc to end in 3rd with 13 points…BAT (9) and BBA (7) both lost betting on Thrashers and stay in single digits…
For the Season…RNT holds onto 1st place and is the 1st to reach 100 points…HUR remains 7 points behind in 2nd place at 93…BBA is 7 back again at 86 in 3rd place…WAR has jumped up to only 5 further back at 81…and BAT is still behind dormant XFA…Bye Weeks don’t have any effect on TBFL Confidence points…so the full value is still available every week to get caught up…go make your picks…
Make your Picks for Week 9…Do it now…no really…now…you can always change them later…
