Monday Night Football Exec. 2012

[Chadman]

Noooooo...... Chadman is saying that the game sucks because it is seriously flawed. It's obvious, because such NFL Yoda's as Flippy &...well...Chadman...are struggling while NFL JarJar Binks' like MJG are ahead of them.

A simple look at the table will show how flawed this game is.

Where is the reward for the uninteresting blowout? THAT should be the challenge- pick the game that will likely cause viewers to fall into a state of catatonic slumber. If THAT was the challenge, not only would most NFL viewers be better rested, they wouldn't suffer through the tedious NFL Replacement Ref Rulings- or the Triple R's as they'll be henceforth known as.

Not only that- it would place the "big brains" crew (who obviously are smarter & cooler because they are all gathered in the lounge), ahead of the "Neanderthalic Numbnutz" crew who are knuckle-dragging their way through to the upper reaches of the board on the basis of prettier coloured jerseys. Don't deny it Neclams- we know that's how you pick em.

The ONLY good thing about this game is that from where Flippy & Chadman are, we get a great view of Steelgal... just sayin.

Iron Shiek - 170

MeetJoeGreene - 120
Ghost - 115
Neclams - 115
Steelgal - 110
TheIggy - 95
ESPN - 85
Pfelix73 - 80
Starlifter - 80
NBC - 80
Lonbull - 80
SNON5150 - 75

Chadman - 35
Flippy - 30

Iron Shiek was the lone Exec. to drop a week (and yearly) high of 105 points with a tough Steeler v. Oakland game that in addition to a number of in game points landed him the Todd Haley Bonus ---- which puts the Shiek at the top of the standings!! And gives the rest of us a new Leader!

Steel Gal dropped a few spots backwards --- but finds herself in solid company with former and defending Champions Ghost and NeClams....it's still early in the season, and the one thing we've learned about MNF Exec. is being in the lead early can often serve as prelude to a soul crushing free fall.

Fordfixer and the Power of Positive Mojo MeetJoeGreene are stalking the leader and will look to gain ground this week -- as all three Execs. have games all to themselves which could provide a big jump in points......or a visit to this weekend's empty Goose Egg Lounge --- after being empty for a week you just know the Goose is "hungry" for MNF Exec. misery!

Most Execs. find themselves sitting on the very curious (0-3) Saints vs. (1-2) Packers.....(I'll say it I'm worried!)

With the exception of the Chris Rainey Bonus (who is on his bye week), all the bonuses are off the board -- however starting in Week 5 we'll begin getting Record Bonuses and we'll find out who knew the Cardinals would be 3-0 and the Patriots (and Steelers) would be 1-2

Good Luck this week - your leader is in RED

[MeetJoeGreene]

Great week all!! Way to go!!

Special props to Iron Sheik... I would have never thought Steelers vs. Oakland could score that high..high risk, high reward and it paid off big time!

I am REALLY beginning to get nervous at chadman and flippy - I think they are toying with us. Really, really toying with us. And getting reading to pounce. In for the kill. Have mercy on us you brilliant strategists of the MNF Exec world!

[RuthlessBurgher]

I bided my time for 2 weeks in the Goose Egg Lounge with 2 straight bagels, giving the rest of you a reasonable head start, but I decided to finally start playing...now I've doubled up flippy and am half way to MJG. Shieky's our leader due to a 105 point week...without that, he'd only be 5 points ahead of me (the ever popular "If you take away Willie Parker's 75 yard run, then he only had..." argument).

Chadman and I have a secret pact to lose this game.

[fordfixer]

How did I go from looking at thisto looking at thisand thiswith out moving??????????

[Chadman]

Chadman and I have a secret pact to lose this game.

C'mon Flippy... you're not supposed to tell them about the pact!

Now MJG isn't going to feel as 'manly' once we let him win.... good one- you've ruined it!!

[MeetJoeGreene]

Hey chadman.. Thanks for your heartfelt concern for my feelings of self worth. Not to worry.. I feel manly on so many fronts!!!! I hope you do too and your self worth isn't tied to this game!

[Chadman]

If MNFE doesn't break Chadman's resolve, Fantasy Football will...

note to self.

never never EVER pick a dallas game again..............

never never EVER pick a dallas game again..............

You get big points for someone scoring 5 TD's...no such luck with 5 INT's, eh?

Methinks MeetJoeGreene will be making another trip to the Goose Egg Lounge for his well-intentioned, but totally misguided pic of SD vs. KC.

Week 4

Iron Shiek - 235
Fordfixer - 180
Ghost - 170
Steelgal - 165
Pfelix73 - 135
NBC - 135
Lonbull - 135
Neclams - 130
SNON5150 - 130
Papillion - 130
MeetJoeGreene - 120
RuthlessBurgher - 115
TheIggy - 115
ESPN - 100
Starlifter - 95
Chadman - 90
Flippy - 85
Jooser - 65

For the second straight week - the Shiek has been the FREAK --- as he puts up the weekly high score of 65 points on the board and does it completely on his own!

The week was filled with solid choices by many MNF Execs. as four games provided the highly coveted 2 point games (and the even more highly coveted 35 points that goes with those games!)

Fordfixer, (the always competitive) Ghost, and former leader Steelgal remain in striking distance of the lone Shiek --- however neither Ghost or Steelgal will be able to make up any ground this week on the leader as they all share the same game -- which might not be a bad thing considering how much Sand the Shiek has been kicking up!

Fordfixer may be able to make up some ground on the leader -- however he'll have to do it without any advanced bonus points -- of course those of us on this game are hoping that Chris Rainey will score a TD in the last minute of the game to win it by 1 point.....(actually I'd be very happy with just a Steelers win!)

A number of Execs will enjoy the first round of record bonuses this week --- and that's at least a guarentee that you won't be visiting the Goose Egg Bar & Grill!!

Good Luck this week - your leader is in RED
