Ditto! And thankee sai

[VastOne]

I'm Building My Library Here

NeedfulKing, do you know if there is a way to link your libraries at LibraryThing to the Wiki pages for each entry? That would be perfect....

VastOne

[NeedfulKings]

I'm really not sure VastOne. I've barely got used to LibraryThing and how they work. They're improving things as they go. But, I'm not too savvy on the whole "wiki" thing. :)

Thanks for getting your picks in! It's great to have fresh blood. Bolding your picks does work, but in all honesty creates a little extra work for me as when I copy/paste them in the "Lock" thread, the formatting (bold) doesn't come with it. I'll have to redo it or just delete the non-bolded teams. It's not a huge deal, so I'm good either way. :)

Cheers!

Thanks NeedfulKings

I can edit and get it right this time and and do it the same for future...

Wiki is an awesome tool....Think Google but directly to some of the most comprehensive data on a subject. If you are using Firefox, you can high lite a book title and right click and you can have the option to go right to the Wiki page. As far as getting it on the LibraryThing, you may want to e-mail them and request it as it is a very simple function to add to a web page...

The nut of it is, if Wiki was set on your books, I would be able to go and get a full blown review sheet of each one with one click....Just some thoughts ... Nothing critical....

Have a great day!

You can multi quote all the picks and they will all appear in your "lock" post. Saves a ton of C&P work.

[NeedfulKings]

Awesome tip, Randall! Now that you mention it, I've done that once in another thread somewhere, but that was after last season ended. I'll definitely use it!

I heard Brady has been activated and will be playing the opening game.

[NeedfulKings]

Good news for Bean Town! :D

Glad to see SO many new faces. I think some regulars will be surfacing soon....beware! :borg:

[turtlex]

Well, I use that tried and true formula of "Best Looking Helmets" with a secondary consideration to "Coolest Uniforms"... so likely I won't be too big a theat to anyone, but I like playing along.

[Nerak]

Hoping Brady gets that foot healed! Our backups, SUCK!!!

ALL PICKS ARE LOCKED! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

If anyone sneaks in between now and Sunday morning, tonight's game will be counted as a loss, but I'll let their remaining picks stand.

[NeedfulKings]

Arthur Heath missed the Jets/Miami game. I'll PM him and he can get it to me before Sunday.

[Randall Flagg]

Just a thought: People can still join prior to Sunday 10Am EDT and only suffer a 1 game penalty for today's game.

Yes! :)

I actually snuck that in at the end of the lock thread too, but it's good to continue to remind those who come in and see just how much fun we're having!!! :D :D :D

Also, for those new to the game, the Week 1 results will be posted in the Week 2 thread following the Monday night game(s).

What's with the bonus? That doesn't really seem fair to me, when all you have to do is pick winners, there shouldn't be extra points floating around....

but I guess I'll say 237

It's not a bonus, it's a tie-breaker.

[Randall Flagg]

Please take a minute to read these simple rules. It's a VERY easy contest to play, but VERY hard to win! :evil:

3. Bonus Point! Each week I will post a stat such as rushing yards for player X or passing yards for player Z. that we all will guess on. The closest to the actual number (high or low) will earn a bonus point (one loss will be converted to a win). This is purely optional and your record will not be penalized if you don't guess a number. **I may take a vote after about 4 weeks to see if this is still a popular feature**

I stand corrected, though ultimately isn't it still a tie-breaker in effect, as only one person can "win" this one while everyone can win all the other ones if we all pick the same.

[Arthur Heath]

Thanks for running this Needful!

[Chasing Dragons]

Oh shit!!! Guess who's back in the muthafuckin' house!?
Well, hello everyone!!! It's been a fuckin' hell of a year. I see I missed the cutoff date. :( I actually wasn't aware there was a Thusday game, but I'm on it now. So, I pick the Giants! :P Anyways, I'll take the W-L worst record for the week, but I'd like to pick some teams anyways to make this weekend a little more fun for myself. Before I do that, I wanted to say thanks again to NK for sponsoring this shindig. You really put a lot of work into this and you are the MAN! I also have a picture of myself with the trophy that will be my avatar for the year, because I'm damn proud of it! :) Next, I want to say that I've missed you guys and gals all tremendously! My life has taken some crazy twists and turns, not the least of which is that I'm about to be a father for the first time. Kinda scary and definitely exciting. She's a girl (obviously) and she's due in December. We've decided to name her Odette-Bijoux. Maybe I'm a dork, but I had to get the Odette in there, you know!? So, yeah, basically I'm still the same loser who kicked your asses last year (hahaha, I gotta get my shit talkin' in now whilst I can!), but I loves you peoples and I hope I can be accepted into this wonderful extended family once again.

but I guess I'll say 237

Welcome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your picks are locked. It's great to have you back in the game for real!!!! :)

Hey, you made it!!! You will ONLY be penalized the Thursday game. Your remaining picks will stand on their own--win or lose! :D

Congrats on the life-changing events! It's great news and great to see you back!

[NeedfulKings]

Arthur Heath missed the Jets/Miami game. I'll PM him and he can get it to me before Sunday.

He PM'd me and is taking the Jets.

[Rjeso]

Yay, he made it!

I was beginning to wonder about you, Chris. :P

[jayson]

He PM'd me and is taking the Jets.

A wise choice. :thumbsup:

Couldn't help it. As a Jets fan, I'm not used to seeing other people pick the Jets. It's kind of touching. :P

[NeedfulKings]

With all the confusion over the bonus point, I posted a poll. Check it out. :) :) :)

Have a good weekend everyone. I'll be scarce for most of it, but know you'll behave! :P

Bill

[Spencer]

Who the hell have you been talking to the last 2 years if you think I'll behave? :lol:

[Phoenix Ignition]

I'm glad ya made it, Chasing Dragons! I hope your trophy is as well-taken care of and appreciated as mine is. haha

[SpaceMaN]

Thanks for clearing up the "bonus" thing guys. I still don't get it though. Wins are wins and losses are losses, that's the point of a pick 'em contest. But I still threw a guess out there so I suppose that's a little hypocritical. Just means I'll win by more anyway. HA!

[Chasing Dragons]

Bill! Laura! Phoenix! Hi!!!:dance:

Dude, Phoenix, as soon as I figure out this new fangled computer gizmo, my avatar is going to be me with my trophy! :thumbsup:

Bill, thanks, btw, for clueing me in on the picks.

And Laura, yeah, I swear I didn't know about the Thursday game. What a slacker, eh!

Also, Laura, you live in Vegas now? Well, methinks I may be driving out there during x-mas break. I want to see area 51 and Rachel and the Little Ale'E'Inn. You know? I'll e-mail you. I gotta get to work, but good luck everyone (Even you, Spence! :evil:) and I loves you all!!!:nana:

[Chasing Dragons]

Oh yeah! Bill, I voted in the poll to KEEP the tiebreaker. If last year proved anything, it's that a tiebreaker is necessary.

Oh? Anyone seen the Princess of Glitter lately?

Against a defense like the Dolphins I think you or I could throw for 70 yds.

[turtlex]

I've a good friend who is a complete Jets fan - ALWAYS has been, through thick and thin, wins and way too many loses. I'm so glad she's got something to look forward to this year.

[NeedfulKings]

I'll be gone the rest of the day. If anyone decides to be a last minute player, PM me your picks. Happy Sunday!!!

Are YOU ready for some FOOTBALL!!??!! :excited::excited::excited:

Favre is already over 70 yds and it's still the first quarter. :P
Chad is at -1. Shocker.

I'll take the first week's bonus point. Thank you very much!

Can I change my vote from let's wait 'till week three to yes keep the bonus?

[Arthur Heath]

Seahawks got stomped :(

[Jon]

HASSELBECK MUST GO!

[Rjeso]

All right, JB and Aaron are back too! Awesome, glad to see you guys again.

Chris, I'll be keeping an eye out for that email. I may be going back to MN for Christmas, but it all depends on fundage.

[Arthur Heath]

Boy...I really effin sucked this week...

[SpaceMaN]

I can't believe I put the Seahawks. Every other league/pickem contest/actual sports wager I took Buffalo. What a brain-fart. Fuck.

[turtlex]

What the heck happened to Brady.
I blinked and he was out of the game!

[Arthur Heath]

Knee injury...

Whats the GU patch all the teams and players are wearing? Its also painted on the field... Who died?

[turtlex]

I believe the patches are in honor of Gene Upshaw, who passed recently.

Hooleee crap.

Brady's season over after injuring knee vs. Chiefs

Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Reigning NFL MVP Tom Brady left Sunday's game against Kansas City after being hit on the left leg, depriving the New England Patriots of the quarterback who last season led them to a 16-0 regular season and their fourth Super Bowl appearance in eight years.

Brady suffered a serious knee injury against the Chiefs that will end his 2008 season, reports NFL Network’s Adam Schefter.

Meanwhile, free-agent quarterback Chris Simms is scheduled to arrive in New England Monday morning for a workout and a physical, Schefter reports. If all goes well, Simms could be a Patriot by the end of the day. Kansas City and Tennessee, each of whom had quarterbacks suffer significant injuries on Sunday, also have contacted Simms.

Brady, who has started 128 consecutive games, went to the turf clutching his left knee midway through the first quarter when he was hit in the pocket by Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard. After being tended to on the field, he walked off, limping, between two trainers.

Brady, 31, went to the locker room and was not seen again on the sideline as backup Matt Cassel led the Patriots to a 17-10 victory. The two-time Super Bowl MVP was not available for comment after the game, and coach Bill Belichick said he had nothing to add to the in-game announcement that it was a knee injury.

The Chiefs also lost their starting quarterback when Brodie Croyle was sacked in the third quarter. The team said he had a bruised right shoulder and he was replaced by Damon Huard.

Brady was 7-for-11 passing for 76 yards, completing a 26-yard pass to Randy Moss on the play in which he was injured. Moss fumbled the ball away when he was tackled; the Patriots forced Kansas City to punt, then Cassel came in for New England.

"Since I've been here and been around Tom, he's always popped back up," Cassel said. "I didn't know (how serious it was). I just buckled my chinstrap and the guys rallied around me. I felt their support."

Cassel took over at his 2 yard-line and, after two handoffs nearly netted the Chiefs a safety, completed his first pass to Moss for a 51-yard gain. Cassel, Brady's backup for the past three years, finished the 98-yard drive with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Moss that gave New England a 7-0 lead.

"This is something I've been preparing for for a long time," said Cassel, who threw just 33 passes while backing up Heisman Trophy winners Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart at Southern Cal. "It's not something I expected to come up on opening day."

A former fourth-stringer who was the 199th overall selection in the 2000 draft, Brady himself took over at quarterback when longtime starter Drew Bledsoe sustained a life-threatening chest injury in a 2001 game against the New York Jets. Brady led the Patriots to their first NFL title that year, another in 2003 and another in 2004.

In the process, Brady has become one of the league's biggest stars and a crossover cover boy who has met the Pope and the president, dated actresses and supermodels and rewrote one of the NFL's most coveted records.

Last year, while leading New England to a 16-0 regular season, Brady set a record with 50 touchdown passes and improved his overall record as a starter to 100-27 -- the best in the Super Bowl era. The Patriots blew a chance at an unprecedented 19-0 season and a fourth NFL title with a 17-14 loss in February's Super Bowl to the New York Giants.

Brady did not play in four exhibition games this summer -- all of them Patriots losses -- while trying to recover from a right foot injury.

"He's the face of the New England Patriots, and Tom being who he is it kind of hurts, to be honest with you," said Moss, who caught 23 of Brady's TD passes in 2007, also a record. "I know the show must go on. Hopefully Matt Cassel is ready to step in. I know the team is ready to embrace him and let him lead us."

[turtlex]

Crap!
My family is going to go into mourning because of this. Patriots fans - tried and true, each one.
Brady... man everyone was worried about the foot !

[jayson]

It sucks when guys get hurt. ESPN is reporting that the Pats are going to be trying out Chris Simms and Tim Rattay this week. Both of these guys played for the Bucs recently. Neither is particularly good.

[NeedfulKings]

I think the Pats will still be a force in the league.

[John Blaze]

haha! as soon as I saw it happen I went online and drafted Cassel (who was still a free agent) to my fantasy league team. I got the jump on everyone!

poor guy, I hope he ends up being better than they think. He's got an MRI tomorrow, right?

[turtlex]

Yup. MRI tomorrow, but I doubt we'll hear anything substantial. Mostly, it will be a lot of ... we are optimistic, the outlook is positive, etc.

Scary stuff for New England ( the team and the fans ). They have a LOT invested in Brady, and not just money wise. He's their franchise player.

[Spencer]

Yes he does. I can't stand Brady, but I want him to play and lose, I don't want to see him, or anyone, hurt badly.

[turtlex]

I never want to see anyone hurt and the way the coverage seemed, at least here in Massachusetts, I was having visions of Joe Theisman. Scary stuff.

[SpaceMaN]

We Kansas City fans sure aren't mourning Brodie Croyle's injury. :cool:

You are quite knowledgeable, thankee-sai

[jayson]

Yes he does. I can't stand Brady, but I want him to play and lose, I don't want to see him, or anyone, hurt badly.

That's it exactly. As a Jets fan, I despise Brady, but I'd rather not see any of these guys get injured. They play a game for our entertainment and it sucks when that involves any of them getting hurt. I hope the injury is not as severe as it appears to have been.

I wouldn't mind seeing somebody slap Randy Moss upside the head for suggesting the hit was dirty.

[Nerak]

I am lots of NOT happy about Brady being hurt!!!

:angry::pullhair::panic::arg::scared::doh::onfire: :shoot:

And that's just the beginning of my feelings about the whole thing.

On the other hand, thanks to Matt for the win!

[Arthur Heath]

Boy...my picks sure did suck this weekend. Hopefully you guys sucked worse than I did :cyclops:

[Nerak]

awaiting the results, cause I don't know who won all the games.

[Arthur Heath]

If both my teams win tonight I'll be at .500. I can believe the Colts lost to the Bears. My team, The Seapigeons, sucked it up pretty bad and the Chargers lost in the last two seconds of the game...

[NeedfulKings]

The games are running late tonight (even for me, a west-coaster), so results may not be posted until the morning! Be patient!!!! :borg:

:D

[gsvec]

Personally, I'm extremely happy the Bears beat the Colts! :P But, alas, most of the rest of my pics sucked, too. :lol:

The games are running late tonight (even for me, a west-coaster), so results may not be posted until the morning! Be patient!!!! :borg:

ya ya ya

easy for you to say

your QB wasn't just put on the IL for the season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NeedfulKings]

Oh, I hate that too!!!! Not a good way to go.

As I said...I think the Pats will be okay. They're a good team!
