My stupidity may well have cost me the season.

Another season with an asterisk? That makes how many of them now? Hmm...I calculate...all of them...

That would still leave you 160 games off the pace this season, oh scared one.

Wrong again, our head to head is 1-1-1.

Yes .. perhaps your chance to match my golden double of last year as well. Congrats on THN FF and GL with Hognostications.

Wow, you are not only wrong, but you didn't even get it with the Avatar hint. Here's another hint.

My 1 is 1 out of 3.

Your 0 is 0 out of every year there's been Hognostications.

Go ahead and give it another go. What head to head stat am I referring to?

Dude, I got your lame point, it's just that I don't acknowledge it. You said yourself, you are 1 out of 3, and the other two are 0-1-1 against me. More importantly, in our most recent head-to-head season, I was the winner. So, until you actually play another season, and have success, you are just blowing smoke. How ridiculous is it for you to actually try and talk smack against me this year, when you aren't even man enough to play? So far there have been seven different winners of this contest, and this year is shaping up to crown an eighth (which won't be you).

Deadskins wrote:Dude, I got your lame point, it's just that I don't acknowledge it

Exactly, as I said, that year has an asterisk on it. Just like this year. Just like every year. Too funny, you say you got it, but then demonstrated my point. No worries, it doesn't matter if you acknowledge it or not. It was Hoss who who put it on my avatar. Without an asterisk, BTW ...

Dude, you're the only one bringing it up. It's your fixation, not mine.

Here's your new avatar, Mr. Projection:

Yes, my picks are in.

Every underdog except, of course, the Redskins.

Keeping my fingers crossed for a Christmas miracle!!!!

Picks are in. There will be surprises. I hope I get some.

Overall, this was a difficult year to get for me. My method did not work this time around. I did not see the upsets coming. I knew there would be a few, I just couldnot identify them. The NFL is too volatile for my liking.

I am fighting for a good seed in the THN post-eason. That's about it.

How does the postseason work for Hognostications?

The top 12 Hognosticators get seeded into two conferences, and we play it just like the NFL playoffs.

You can look up last year for details:

One on one and you must beat ALL others in front of you. Just like the road to the SB.

Not for the faint of heart and there is an art to it. VERY different than the season Hognostications.

No HOGNOSTITRAITOR has ever won them either.

is very nice.

Hognostication over the Hognostications:

It is still among the top 3 but I think Tribe wins this competition this year.

I hope the top posters make a desperate choice of upsets and they backfire.



I am playing for a good seed and a bye in the playoffs.

thanks for the vote RIC..... I've been getting lucky lately

You've been strong all season. Whatever happens today, congratulations, and good luck.

Barring any Hognostitraitors Tribe and I will tie for first (maybe Justice too).

ACW wrote:Barring any Hognostitraitors .. Tribe and I will tie for first (maybe Justice too).

well that's good news

I know I did not win but I do not know who won!

I am quite happy with a BYE in the first round of the THN playoffs.

Congrats to ACW and Tribe for tying for 1st

Is there a tie-breaker?

The bogus tie-breaker ESPN uses makes ACW the champ, I think. He had the better week 17. Personally, I think the tie-breaker should go by who was closer to the total of the weekly tie-breaker scores. I'll leave it to one of those two to tally that up, though. I'm still sick about changing my pick in the G-strings/Ravens game last week.

That's quite alright
So how does the seeding for postseason work?

Which is why I asked this a few weeks ago:

The site does it automatically by your MNF score predictions. The three in frist place right now are in alphabetical order, because the Monday night game hasn't been played. On Tuesday, the pick grid will show the winners for the week with the tie-breaker in play. Wednesday-Thursday the grid is in season order reflecting the season-long tally of the tie-breaks. Even though it may say you're in first place, if another Hognosticator is listed above you, it is because he owns the season tie-break over you.

What happened to this?

Tiebreaker #1 - Higher number of points scored for Week 17
Tiebreaker #2 - Higher number of points scored for Week 16
Tiebreaker #3 - Higher number of points scored for Week 15
Tiebreaker #4 - Higher number of points scored for Week 14
Tiebreaker #5 - Higher number of points scored for Week 13
Tiebreakers will continue backwards from week thirteen (13) until week one (1).
