Pick Six

The Gipper

OK, Guys, here is where we stand at this point on the Pick 6 contest:

After 5 selections, we have a 3 way tie:

Canton Mike, Tour, and Louisville Slugger each got two picks correct.

Myself, LondonBrown, Nero, TheNew23, Zombo, TexasAg, and mjp.....we all struck out. Not one right.

Darren, Gumby, and SissyBoyfloyd each got one right.

At this point it seems that it now comes down perhaps to which one: Canton Mike, Tour or LS......get the pick of Mason Rudolph correct.

Canton Mike had him going to the Cards....so that is looking bad for him since they took Rosen in round 1

Tour said the Pats, and LS said the Saints. I think both of these are clearly, clearly in play and possible. So....one of them could be the winner likely.

The other possibility is if these 3 guys all miss....and either Darren, Gumby or SBF hits it on Rudolph.

Gumby took him going to the Bills....so that looks bad. Both Darren and SBF have him going to the Steelers. A long shot at this point.

Well we did quite well with that.

Actually as one idiot on this board repeatedly said this was a subpar quarterback class......and then beat several dead houses to dust (oh that was me).

Sam Darnold (USC) -250
Josh Allen (Wyoming) +120
Saquon Barkley (Penn State) +380
Josh Rosen (UCLA) +1100
Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) +1300 <----- WOW what a big payoff for a little wager thanks to those wacky BROWNS
Bradley Chubb (NC State) +2000

Sam Darnold +275
Josh Allen +350
Josh Rosen +400
Baker Mayfield +1500
Lamar Jackson +4000

NO. 3 OVERALL PICK:

Bradley Chubb +1100

That may be....but they won't take him. So it really is not over. Tour and Louisville Slugger.

Now, what happens if there is a tie? I have to figure that out.

Any suggestions for a tie breaker....or do I owe all three lunch at Al's? ...or somewhere else?

Oh....OK...I must have misread. Maybe I though NYG was NYJ.

So...its down to Canton Mike and Louisville Slugger. With Slugger having the best chance for an outright win.

What does this have to do with anything here?

No Coronation yet however.

Pretty sure I can climb into a tie, tho...

Yes...that is true as well. We shall see.

The Gipper

Forgot to handle this yesterday.

What we have in the Pick 6 contest is a 4 way tie:

Canton Mike

Louisville Slugger

Darren

Sissy Boy Floyd

each got 2 picks right.

Darren and SissyBoy pulled out the tie when the Steelers took Rudolph. Before that it was just a two way tie between Canton Mike and LS.

So....here was my deal if you recall:

I will buy the winner of this little effort lunch at Al's as well.

And if anyone did not follow....Al's Corner Diner here in Barberton Ohio is like the very best certain ethic restaurant in NE Ohio. You just gotta get here.

https://www.alscornerrestaurant.com/al-s-corner-restaurant-1

I don't know where you are all from....I guess I could look it up. But my offer stands....If you want to claim your prize by coming to Barberton and having lunch on me at Al's, we can do that.

If that is not possible....I am still willing to buy you the equivalent of lunch at Al's. Remember, if you went on the website....lunch there is only $7.50. You need to PM me with your preference...and instructions on how to get things to you. (note: McDonald's gift certs. could do the job.....but I won't hold you all to that.)

Louisville Slugger

I appreciate the offer but I haven't even made it up for a game yet. Hopefully that changes this season but my work schedule is crazy. At very least I'm going to make it to one of our games in cincy
