Lock of the Week 5

Will post results later

Place picks below. Special feature this week since Ottawa plays two games if you pick a Redblack and they score a touchdown in both games you can have a strike taken away. If they score in only one game you don't gain a strike. If they don't score in both you get two strikes. Interesting gamble if you want to take it.

  • Saw Stangby got a TD for Ott and I'm like "OMG THAT'S THE GUY I PICKED! OH THANK CHRIST!!!"......Ya, that's not the guy. Sigh. Already done for the year.

    Oops. totally missed that last sentence. And Powell is back from injury so Madu didn't even play. This contest sucks, the world is against me, I hate everyone!

I'm going to change mine to Greg Ellingson which I believe is allowed.

I'll go Ryan Lindley as well....

I am going to go with Messam because picking against the Riders seems a smart choice.

I really love the Ottawa idea for this week!... Great creativity for the contest.... but since I'm only at one strike...

Jerome Messam

But even if you don't get a score in both games, you still get two chances with a RedBlack player compared to one with any other player. It's actually twice the advantage (two cracks at no strike PLUS the chance to get a strike removed). I was hoping for the chance to pick two separate players if they weren't RedBlacks vs. one RedBlack player for both games.

Anyway, given the offer, I will avoid my original Messam pick and take Madu.

Sure, but you're completely ignoring that if your pick scores none, you get two strikes

The real benefit was for the all-stars like myself who already had 4 strikes.  We're done with one more anyway, so may as well go for broke.

Sinopoli's been solid for me in TSN Fantasy this season, too. 

crap.  I didn't realize it was a double double scenario.  and since Ottawa played and my guy sucked, I assume I need to ride it out now...

 

accursed lack of reading comprehension!

 

unless I can switch to Harris, keep the one strike and hope for the best. 

Andrew Harris

Ok I didn't know Bowman was hurt. Am I allowed to sub in Hazelton?  Please??? Game hasn't started....
