Overall winner it is. Now, for NEXT season we can discuss how we want to do it, but in order for it to be a 'proper' chase, we have to disqualify the bottom 60% of the teams from being eligible just like they do in 'real' nascar racing. I just don't think we want to do that, we don't have enough entrants as it is.
I think Clint is making a BIG mistake, UNLESS RCR was going to be losing sponsorship and wanted to transfer it to another car. What they SHOULD have done was let Jeff Burton go, he hasn't won anything since they invented the gasoline engine..
LOL! it's been what, almost 4 years since his last win? And driving good cars, too. I like Burton but at some point, it's time to hang it up.
I was really hoping David Gilliland would pick it up this season, not a win so much, but just a handful of top-20's, like Regan Smith, but he cannot even do that.
I cheered for Ward though not sure why, maybe the voice and the haircut. Plus he put a Dodge in Daytona's garage, err winner's circle...MOPAR baby!
I would have posted a friendly reminder but I've been warned on multiple occasions that good sportsmanship will not be tolerated in this league. I fear the wrath of the head idiot.
I tried to change my roster Monday but it wouldn't let me. Oh well, I think I'll be okay this weekend with what I've got.
Wow, heck of a hit by JJ. His title hopes are done and probably mine too b/c he was my starter tonight. Damn SI cover jinx.
I had JJ winning too. none of my pics did well except for Busch, who finished 2nd. I think any shot I had at the season championship is over now at least I won the Spring season
That was a harder hit than what killed Earnhardt Sr. Lighten up. How do you figure that? 1 Team Koford 7,685 0 31 22 6 2 Scuderia Ricky Bobby 7,480 0 31 21 3 3 Das Krautwagon 7,388 0 31 19 4 4 JDDRE 7,356 0 31 19 4 5 Capital City Cajuns 7,269 0 31 19 4 6 BubbaIncognito 7,142 0 31 16 5 7 Bill Todd 6,854 0 31 12 2 8 Thirteendog 6,160 0 29 15 1 9 Stuporbird 5,873 0 27 12 4 We already discussed how to crown a 'champion', we don't have enough entries to do it the same way nascar does, by only allowing the top 12 to compete for the championship. If we were to do it that way, we would have needed to eliminate the bottom six entries - 66% or so, since nascar only promotes roughly (I said 'roughly') the top 33% to compete for the championship. We will discuss beforehand in 2012 how to do the 2012 champion, but I didn't think it would be fair to only allow the top three to compete for the mythical championship. I'm always open to ideas, but we probably should have discussed it beforehand.
You seem to be one of the few people that still think the 'playoffs' are what will decide the champion.
