No one wants it. But it’s all the NFL is serving up this year, so
Dang, I had a note to change the Colts to the Vikings if everything was still looking good for the Vikings before game time, but I forgot they started doing Saturday games. D’oh!
Well, you saved yourself a roller-coaster of emotions, that’s for sure.
Brother, who is a big Vikings fan, took a flight yesterday, and signed off at halftime. He made a FB post about how he was happy to not have to watch the rest of the game.
Going into the night game, it’s all @Vorian_Atreides all the time. @redearedslider will pick up a VALSA if the Giants win tonight.
This week’s Award is Mob Insurance.
Nice Little Lead You Got There…It Would Be A Shame If Something Were To [ahem] Happen To It: If you win this award you’ll be able to insure that all of the teams you picked for the week you declare do not blow a seven or more point lead that they had at the end of the 3rd quarter.
Internet issues again, so no full write up until at least tomorrow…maybe never :yikes: …
@Vorian_Atreides won this week.

Congratulations to Week 15 winner, @Vorian_Atreides. He will receive the Nice Little Lead You Got There…It Would Be A Shame If Something Were To [ahem] Happen To It. He’ll be able to insure that all of the teams he’s picked for the week he declares do not blow a seven or more point lead that they had at the end of the 3rd quarter. The default will be to apply this award to his Week 16 picks. This default may be rejected by declaring a different week before Week 16’s TNF-kickoff.
He has also won the Change one future pick award which expires at the end of the season and may be declared at any time before the start of the game it applies to.
Additionally, @redearedslider, being in sole possession of last place this week, has won the VALSA (VA’s Lion’s Share Award) which gives him a limited-time-COFP which, if used, must be declared before TNF for a Week 16 game.
This week…
COFPs:
@Funemployed used a COFP to change his Colts pick to the Vikings.
@Grizz used a COFP to change his Buccaneers pick to the Bengals.
@Mountainhawk used her Lovable Losers award to guarantee her Jets over Lions pick. The Jets lost, but she won.

Two COFP’s for Week 16:
Change Cardinals to Buccaneers
Change Panthers to Lions
I’m not saying that I’m not keeping track of every single detail in the game, but I don’t suppose you’d be willing to post an updated awards list, so we can see the everyone’s current COFP and prize status?
That’s a really good idea. I’m not sure why the intern didn’t do that last night. I’ll make sure your request is processed within 72 hours. I may need to crack the whip on them. I heard they were at something called a high-a-you-ska party with a prominent player in the NFL. I guess that’s why you take these low/no-paying internships-to get access to your next career step.
According to my records, which you can see in the post directly above this one, you only have one COFP remaining. I will process your request in the order it was received. I.e., Change Cardinals to Buccaneers but not Change Panthers to Lions. You may revise, refute, & repudiate this decision up until the kickoff of the Panthers/Lions kickoff, since they’re the early game & the Bucs/Cards are the night game.
You are correct, how sad for me. I forgot to record my use of two Week 11 COFP’s in my own records. Stick with Cards to Bucs.
Week 16 COFP: Tundra → Tuna (or Tua?)
Mayahuska to “whistles” and “clicks”
COFP: Change Packers to Dolphins
Now the real question: whether or not to change the Panthers to the Lions.
(Last year’s zLionsSuck vs this year’s zPathersSuck teams… tough call…)
Your first COFP declaration. Congratulations & good luck.
Only one is still fighting for a division title
