by Manny Stiles
Results from Preseason Week 1 are in and it's time to predict Preseason Week number 2!
Points accumulated during the Preseason will not count once the season begins. YES< you can still join! Follow the bouncing ball, and you're in...
Here's APL Preseason Week 2
a
Three predictions, no spread. You choose the winner only! Remember, just put the winner's name next to a value of 1, 2 or 3 points, using each value only once. Here's the available NFL matchups to choose from (no bitching about which games are available):
(If you don't know what the abbreviations mean, you can't play.)
Due to the limited availability of weekend games, you will only have until Thursday, 6pm ET to submit your predictions (This will not happen during the real season) and there is a shortened list to choose from this week:
- ARI v DEN
- OAK v SEA
- SF v SD
- BAL v ATL
- IND v CIN
b
Just like last week - This is the section where you'd pick a player for their Yahoo fantasy stats x .10.
But no fantasy stats are worth a damn in preseason, so we'll do this:
Pick any team listed above as the team you think will score the most points.
You then will recieve their score x .10 towards your total.
c
The Three (I, II, III) wildcard predictions (valued 1, 2 or 3 points, your choice) are as follows (remember, this is a Prediction League, not a Guessing League)
I - Which team will hit more Home Runs in the Devil Rays - Yankees series this weekend? Use either NYY or TBD to note your selection (tie breakers: 1)which team has more extra base hits, 2) which team has a higher slugging pct for the series- then in descending order of hits, total bases, pitches faced and if neccessary, which home market TV station got a higher combined ratings)
II - Pick a NASCAR driver in this weekend's Sharp AQUOS 500 at California Speedway. If your pick finishes within the top 4 (Four), you are correct. OK, here's the link to help you a bit, sissies...
III - Who will win this weekend's TWO Western Conference Finals games between the Phoenix Mercury and San Antonio? There are two games - so you can pick only PHX, SA or Tie (remember to assign a point value on your choices) More help for the sissies
Remember to assign these values of 1, 2 or 3 (like section a)
This is a PRESEASON exercise, no scoring will count except for comprising a value as to how cool you are compared to the other kids.
Happy Predicting! You have until Thursday evening 12:00 MST to make your entries (feel free to stand back and watch THIS ROUND ONLY) next week begins the real deal (even though it's Pre-Season too)
Add your team name first, then your choices as such in comments
like so....
