Week 17 Discussion

[Suicane]

oooh, big news from cardinal country. gene savage has been signed to kick field goals but ricky anderson will be kept on to kick the kickoffs. beware the 4 legged kicking machine.

[Hell Atlantic]

is that the ex-Heroes Gene Savage? there's a reason why he's an ex-Hero. better you than me.

[Suicane]

My other option is the field goal kicking equivalant of Anthony Young.

[Kobeck]

just out of curiosity why did you choose Savage over Wholters?

Wholters has pretty good career stats and if you were looking for a K for a playoff run he seems to have been a better choice. Of course Savage will kick a 50+ yarder as time expires because I mentioned this - lol

[Hell Atlantic]

am i the only guy who uses my punter for kickoffs? i swear, my punter should go to the Pro Bowl for pulling double duty this season. averaging almost 1 or 2 touchbacks per game.

[Suicane]

I went with Savage on just a gut feeling. Besides, Wolters has that Mule taint on him :twisted: .

[SteveBsFan]

I predict a victory for myself this week.

I predict you suck! :shock:

[Suicane]

Why I oughta!

I've been frettin all week on how to approach the game with Hartford and found myself going over multiple plans while driving to & from work. All week long, I just kept shuffling the cards ... should I do this or should I do that?

Also, have been having trouble going to sleep at night. I tried counting sheep, didn't work ... so I've have resorted to counting Hickman getting sacked by each of my front seven ... has worked like a charm. Some nights, I go through the rotation more than once.

After a couple of beers tonight, I finally made my decisions, inputed the game plan and am now locked and loaded for the Grizzly visit to Viper Stadium on Sunday. :shoot:

I love these big games ...

The only thing I'm hacked off about is that I'm not going to be home when the games are run... I'm getting sick of being out of town when the games get run...

I predict I am going to hurt so many Toads, that his starters will have to come in. My team will then dismember the starters. In turn it will cause you to be knocked out of the 1st round of the playoffs. :twisted:

Naah I wont go psycho I have a reload to look into.

I don't think I will be sitting too many starters actually. I have never been too big on that. Injured guys will get a break, and maybe one or two others. Brian Dixon has a rushing title to win though, and Given demands to play. If injuries happen, then so be it. So lets roll Tulsa.

[Cringer]

Jim Hickman might not have the flashiest stats, but he can make a good case for MVP.

Caro already cleared a spot in his trophy case.

Yeah, homerism aside, the MVP race shouldn't be very tight.

I'm talking about him in a Lozier sense. Lozier tends not to put up the gaudiest stats, but as we saw when Les Bishop was playing, he made the Vipers go. Caro has all the stats, he'll win the award, but you can make a case for Hickman to get it, I would expect him to finish 2nd or 3rd based upon the improvement the Griz have had this year compared to last when he missed 1/2 the season.

I never knew you smoked weed.

Hickman may make top 3 if things go your way. I Still say Given, with two fewer games, has had a better season then him. And Brian Dixon looks like #2 in the MVP race to me.

CB Oliver McKenzie should be in the race for #2 also. He is only the second player to get to double digits in interceptions in the history of the league.

Woo Hoo!

I will rest some of the injured guys. Otherwise, They play. Im ready.

[tarcone]

With the win tomorrow, Tulsa will have a 5-1 division record.

[Cringer]

Gameplan in tarcone. Lets see if going with a different defensive tactic completely blows up in my face or not. I think it very well could, but doing heavy bump and run like Columbia did against you didn't work for me, and wouldn't on a second try either. I just don't have guys with good B&R skills.
