I put two Upmann #2's in this time because I put one in last time around and it didn't last one stop :)

Please let me know what you all think!

Thanks fellas. What a great pass to be involved in.

Oh yeah, I can't figure out how to re-size pictures…. I USED to be computer savvy…….

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks good to me Jarrod

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks good!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

In a bid to allow you a double win, I'm gonna go out on a limb and put all my eggs in one basket.
I'll take Peyton and Demaryius Thomas.
Mind ya, I'd like to go with Mike Glennon and Calvin Johnson, or Matt Stafford and Brandon Marshall, or a whole lot of other picks. The odds of Peyton and Thomas hooking up enough to take this is slim, but I like the odds for a longshot.
It'll just make me feel good if I beat you with this matchup. :D

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Me 116.38
Cole 79.18

Brees 18.52
Jackson 8.10
26.62

Peyton 12.00
Thomas 14.10
26.10

I was SOOOoooo0oo close!!! :D
So Cole lost 10 troop sticks and I lost 5. :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Hey Scott we need to put up 10 troop stick bet on our epic matchup this weekend:tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Done deal, brother.
I scared all these other girls into submission. Nice to see my buddy has the stones to take a bet. :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Scott I'll bet you!! I have a lot of troop sticks I need to lose!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

You call it, Coach.
Heck, I don't have a clue how many I have.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

10 sticks a qb, RB, WR, and TE.

Ill take
Peyton Manning
Shady McCoy
AJ Green
Jimmy Graham

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I'll take Drew Bree's, Andre Brown, Jimmy Graham and Victor Cruz.
I just picked from the last 4 teams cause I just caught your post, Mike.
Had to cancel out Jimmy, there's nobody close enough to give you that edge.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I'll spot you 10pts, just to make it interesting.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I'll still lose, Mike. This ain't my week. I'm having my ass handed to me in both my FF leagues. Looks like it'll be my first 2 loss weekend of the year.

It's funny how I drafted with the first 8 weeks in mind. I knew I had to come out strong in the money league I'm in, so I created my draft for that league, and drafted here the same way, just to see how it goes. Went something like 12-2-2 in both leagues combined, and now I'm just getting THRASHED. :D
Oh well. :)

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I actually just threw the bait fish in. I took 8 put 9.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks good to me coach! :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Oh ok, I didn't pay attention to that

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Hey guys, I just wanted to say that I've been slipping a little in this thread due to my audit being pretty intense this year, especially due to the government shut down and time constraints from that...anyway, a huge thanks to those of you who have been stepping up and looking over the pass and to Matt for being here as co-commish to answer anything that came up.

I looked through the puts and takes that have been submitted, and everything looks pretty cool with me :tu the pass really makes this fun, and I hope you all have been enjoying yourself with it again this year.

Also, here is an update on the Troop Sticks bet amounts:
Shilala 40 stick bet balance
Chaase321 owes 5 sticks
Sofaman 24 stick bet balance
Mattso3000 34 stick bet balance
MkArnold1 Owes 1 stick
Malakai 30 stick bet balance
Tjarv 4 stick bet balance
Jenks Anejo Owes 15 sticks, plus entry 6 Troop sticks and 6 entry sticks
Beeradvocate 2 stick bet balance
Coach deg 104 stick bet balance

Only a few more weeks in the season left (4 weeks!!)...let's try to get those betting balances down further! I encourage everyone to take advantage of Shilala and Coach...make them lose!!!!!! :r :r

You guys have been doing great, and I can't wait to add up all of these sticks and see how many we actually have for the year. I know we are doing better this year than last, and hopefully we can make this the highest year yet!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

So, to keep the bets going...

Sofaman, you want to throw a 10'er for the troops on our matchup this week?

*Remember, you have clinched a playoff birth...so you could sit everyone ya know :D *

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

A 10er it is:tu:tu:tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I think I'm sending pass to Scott(sofa man). I'm going to ship in about hour. Hope I'm right.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Right on, Coach :tu Then Sofaman will hand off to shilala and yet another cycle will be complete :noon :r

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Awesome :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

5787 6605 7460 fedex. On way scott

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Here are my puts and takes let me know if this is ok and I will ship it out to Scott tomorrow.

Puts:
Tat Halloween 13
Liga L-40
LFD Chapter 1
Anejo 77 Shark
Fuente Un named reserve 13

Takes

DPG Blue Lancero
L'atelier
Opus Robusto
Tat Reserva

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks good to me!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks like we have an interesting week 15 shaping up here...

Scott (Sofaman) is the only team to clinch a playoff spot so far, the other three spots are up in the air with four teams fighting for them. TJarv is in the drivers seat at 10-4, but if he looses and Me, Shilala, and Travis win he could still be out in the cold. The three of us are tied at 9-5 so the scenarios become more convoluted from here. A loss probably means you're out or if we all win it comes down to points. Enjoy week 15 and good luck to all!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Somebody give me a bet, I have sticks to lose!!!!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks like I got you by the slimmest of margins!
90.04 to 89.52

I so totally :sl you silly! :r :r

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Why don't y'all make a bet of it! :D

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I got the pass. :tu
I rooted through it but haven't dug out puts yet.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Cole I would rather be beat by 100 pts than lose by a half a point, tough loss:sl:sl:sl

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Update:
I have still done nothing more with the pass. Although, I have thought about doing something with the pass on numerous occasions, and that makes me feel better about not doing anything more with the pass. :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Whatever helps you sleep at night :gary :sl :D

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Okay, I got time to do the pass thing.
My takes:
3 Sharks
Casa Fuente
Monte Open

My puts:
07 Don Carlos
02ish Oliva X by EOBrands
Padron SI-15 Maduro
Padron SI-15 Natural
Air Bender
08 Anejo 70? (Can't think of the number right now)
00 Punch RS11 (Best cc EVAR!!!)
San Cristobal El Principe? (Another brain block)

I'm not in love with anything I took, so if there's any problem, just let me know.
I don't know the value on the casa, my thinking was an SI or the Oliva X would cover it. Or bind the SI-15's as a pair?
I took the three sharks cause I like them and I'm out. I don't need to take 3.
So just give me your thoughts and I'll do whatever. :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Shark hog:D Looks good to me!

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Some more input would be great. I can get this going tomorrow.
That's a point, too. Who am I sending this to? I haven't pm'd ahead yet.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Looks good to me

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Scott, I think the Padrons costs together would cover (pretty close) the cost of the Casa Fuente depending on where it was acquired.

Not sure how much the Oliva X is, actually haven't even heard of one...so that's awesome to add to the pass! And I just love the Punch RS11!

You can send the pass off to me. I will take inventory, and shoot a PM out to the members to see if everyone is in on another round. :tu

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Alright Gents...its time for some Fantasy Football Playoffs!!!! and Time to make some wagers! :D :sl

Going for the championship we have two semi-final matches:

Scott Sofaman against Tony TJarv

Matt Ninja for Hire against Travis TDsandBeer

Best of luck to all you "good" teams :tu

Also, like last year, we are doing a consolation match again. This will be done just through the thread because Yahoo! won't allow me to do it on the site. So, I am going to run it the way we did last year to be fair to all.

So...this week, all 6 teams (ranked 5th through 10th) will have a shot at moving to the championship consolation bracket. The TOP 3 TEAMS, in terms of points scored for will move on to next weeks championship game.

Then, in the championship, the top point scorer will be the winner. So pay attention to your line-ups it still counts!

Prizes:
1st place 30 sticks from the entries
2nd place 20 sticks from the entries
3rd place 10 sticks from the entries
Champion of the consolation bracket, 10-15 sticks.

Before the season started Scott asked me to weed through the pass and pull sticks that I thought weren't "up to par" with the premium standards of our pass. These sticks are being put into the consolation winnings. These are still good sticks, but they aren't the ones that scream "pick me pick me" when you open the pass, and it helps weed out some of the bulk :tu For example, I pulled an Alec Bradley Sun Grown and a Oliva V maduro (because we had 4 in the pass already)...just a couple examples.

Re: Fourth Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Good luck guys it has been a lot of fun this year!!!!
