Monday Night Football Executive 2020

[fordfixer]

No worries my friend - actually the first year we ever did this -- I caught a mistake and decided to offer up a ruling that I thought would be fair.

If you make a mistake on your schedule and it isn't realized until the week of the game - I will take the first team you write in - (i.e. if it's Seattle vs. Arizona, and it was supposed to be Cleveland vs Arizona - you're stuck with the Seattle game whomever they're playing - unless it's a bye week for Seattle, and then I’ll use the Arizona game).


So you'll get the Chargers v. Dolphins in week 10.

Since the Week 11 games won't offer you any record bonus points under the above rule -- which would you prefer -

Jets v. Chargers in week 11
Dolphins v. Broncos in week 11

No one should be forced to the Goose Egg lounge because of a mistake.......unless the girls I keep posting actually hang out in the Goose Egg lounge....because then we ALL deserve to be there.

L.B.

I’ll take the Dolphins v. Broncos in week 11. Under the head in ass rule.
Thanks

Jooser - 340
Starlifter - 330
Whatever - 325
NBC - 320
Buzz - 310
Fordfixer - 305
BlOOze - 305
SteelerfaninTO - 300

Reigning MNF Exec. Champion "Average" Joos - decided he was done being average and got back on track for a possible repeat performance by picking up the weekly high score of 60 points all to himself....with his Rams v. Seahawks division battle.



Newcomers SteelerfaninTO and BlOOze picked up the 2nd weekly high score with 30 points -- while the score was definitely a solid pick, it may have been a bit of a disappointment as their only points were from the Record Bonus....it was a tough "no gain" during the actual game itself.



Looking ahead - Week 11 could definitely be a Make or Break Week for the top of the board -- Reigning Champion Jooser will pick up a 30 point bonus and with some in game luck, he could certainly close the gap on ESPN!

However leader ESPN is countering with 25 points at kickoff as well -- and will certainly look to extend their lead even further.

3rd place Passhappy will also be picking up 25 points and certainly hopes to make a move into at "least" second place.

Meanwhile - Whatever has 25 bonus points AND the Packers v. Colts game all to himself.

I mean WHAT a WEEK!!! -- also Lonbull picked the Jets v. Chargers...apparently I was TRYING to embarrass myself this year.

Here's a look at Week 11 - your leader is in RED

Week 11

Chiefs at Raiders – (+30) Jooser, NBC, Starlifter, SteelerofDeville
Rams at Buccaneers – (+25) ESPN, MeetJoeGreene
Titans v. Ravens – (+25) Passhappy, Ghost
Packers v. Colts – (+25) Whatever
Cowboys v. Vikings – Buzz, Flippy, SteelerfaninTO, PFelix73
Patriots v. Texans – Papillion
Jets v. Chargers - Lonbull
Dolphins v. Broncos – Fordfixer
Falcons v. Saints – BlOOze

Thanks

I also had the same issue with my schedule listing the Chargers v. Broncos game -- must have been a glitch on the Schedule Listing, not your fault at all my friend.

[Jooser]

Uh-0h.......

[flippy]

If Andy Dalton coulda just waited 37 seconds before he threw the game winning TD pass, he could have earned me some more points.

I think there's a way to enhance the scoring a bit because a game stays interesting until the end if a team is down less than a score at the end of the 4th quarter with a chance to tie or take the lead. I'd say Minny being down 3 and getting the ball at their 25 with a chance to tie or win keeps people tuned into the game even among 2 crappy teams. Not sure what that's worth, but it seems like something because it holds one's interest to keep watching the game.

Week 11

ESPN - 490
Flippy - 425
Jooser - 425
Starlifter - 415
Passhappy - 410
NBC - 405
Whatever - 390
SteelersofDeville - 370
Buzz - 360
SteelerfaninTO - 350
Fordfixer - 320

Ghost - 265
Papillion - 205

Reigning Champion Jooser, and Former Champions Starlifter and SteelersofDeville racked up the weekly high score with a 85 point drop in the Chiefs v. Raiders Sunday Night delight!

With 50 points already on their scoreboard -- a Game Winning Touchdown to Kelce gave them another 35....and had those of us who "didn't" have this game looking like #20 Arnette....pained!



However ESPN continues to enjoy a charmed schedule -- enjoying a 75 point pick-up in their Rams v. Buccaneers Monday Night fight....you know things are going well for you when you pick up a 5 point Rookie Bonus this late in season -- which they did when Cam Akers hit the endzone for his first career TD.

5 points may not seem like much, but this game also helps lift MeetJoeGreene out of the cellar and into the middle of the pack.



The top of the board just got MUCH tighter -- and to make matters more interesting the top TWO - Former Champion Flippy and ESPN share the Seahawks v. Eagles game....but it comes without any bonus points.

However - Reigning Champion Jooser will pick up 25 bonus points at kickoff, zip past Flippy and could certainly jump to the lead in Week 12!! Has Average Joos...become like a "Master" at this game??

Meanwhile Former Champ Starlifter (and seemingly the rest of the MNF Execs) will pick up a 30 point bonus at the kickoff of the Ravens v. Steelers game.....and with some in game luck could also overtake the lead.

***On a side note - If the Ravens v. Steelers game is cancelled - all MNF Execs will be switched over to the Titans v. Colts (Same 30 point bonus).

Here's a look at Week 12 - your leader is in RED

Week 12

Ravens v. Steelers (+30) – Buzz, Starlifter, Papillion, Lonbull, SteelerofDeville, SteelerfaninTO, Ghost, Whatever, PFelix73
Chiefs v. Buccaneers (+25) – Passhappy, MJG, BlOOze, Jooser
Bears v. Packers (+15) – NBC, Fordfixer
Seahawks v. Eagles – ESPN, Flippy

C'mon lonbull.. i thought you were supposed to have the results by Thursday... slacker

I'll have them up by Saturday Morning - The Steelers playing on Wednesday afternoon has really kind of screwed with me.

[Starlifter]

Week 12

ESPN - 505
Jooser - 490
Starlifter - 475
Passhappy - 475
NBC - 455
Whatever - 450
Flippy - 440
SteelersofDeville - 430
Buzz - 420
SteelerfaninTO - 410
Fordfixer - 370

Ghost - 325
Papillion - 265

Reigning Champion Jooser (along with MeetJoeGreene, BlOOze and Passhappy) picked up the high score this week with 65 points.

Jooser must have been smiling as Mahomes threw 3 TD's to a seemingly unstoppable Tyreek Hill - and the combined Touchdowns gave Jooser and his gang an additional in-game 10 points -- (same as Hill's Jersey Number!)



ESPN and Flippy escaped the Goose Egg lounge with 15 points -- which kept ESPN out of a tie with Jooser.

Nine MNF Execs enjoyed 60 points in the (long awaited) Wednesday Afternoon Classic - Ravens v. Steelers game. The 60 points helped tighten up the top of the board.....tighter than that James Washington catch late in the fourth quarter that almost made me sick!



Week 13 could be VERY hard times for any number of Execs.....except for Former Champion Lonbull....who somehow found a way to pick up 15 points at kickoff......I mean even a broken clock is right twice a day, amir'ght?.....but enough from the cellar.

Sadly no one choose the Browns v. Titans game which is really one of the few games on tap worth watching.

At the top of the board Starlifter and Jooser share the Eagles v. Packers game - so they'll either rise or sink together. 2019 Champion Jooser has been red hot - so we'll see if he can take the top spot this week.

However Passhappy - who has been with this game for some time and is looking for his first taste of the Hall of Champions could jump ahead of everyone with the Cowboys v. Ravens game.

For a little extra intrigue - if any of the "scheduled" games below are cancelled I will be replacing that game with:

Colts v. Texans.

Here's a look at Week 13 - your leader is in RED

Week 13

Rams v. Cardinals - (+15) Lonbull
Bills v. 49ers – ESPN, PFelix73

Broncos v. Chiefs – NBC, Ghost
Cowboys v. Ravens – Passhappy, Flippy, Papillion, SteelerofDeville, Whatever
Patriots v. Chargers – Buzz
Eagles v. Packers – Starlifter, MJG, Jooser
Lions v. Bears – SteelerfaninTO
Saints v. Falcons – BlOOze, Fordfixer

I'm guessing my week 13 pick didn't help my score much

Everybody basically had similar scores....you're still in the hunt.

MJG - I understood, and appreciated -- I unfortunately was rushed and didn't have anything smart to write.

Flippy - I've given a lot of thought to your suggestion(s) and in the off season I think I will try to break this game down and rebuild it, just to see if I can either communicate better what this game had been intended to be.....or to acknowledge some of the finer points of a game that I haven't captured yet.

On one hand I'm trying to make it, so that points in this game are very well earned....so in many cases they are tough to get.

However I hear your point in that some situations may deserve a re-think towards earning points.
