    i have one important question question.
    HAVE these guys given up = chopperbyrne, mr nice guy, lita forever, cactus col and nightmareof gold?
    if your team is listed above please confirm you have given up on this league. i was looking at your teams for this week and the only words that came to mind are 'my god'.
    the top 5 teams seem to be the only ones with a good team. what really worries me is that i am in 5th place, i thought that was ok (5/10 at least i was not last) but really i am last. if the top 5 teams are the only ones that care about the league and the only ones working at it and i am 5th that makes me last.noooooo...................
    i really want to finish 2nd now. fozzy has won it, for sure and out of the next 4 anyone cold finish 2nd.

    I'm 173rd after Raw, which isn't a very big drop, so obviously all the top ranked people haven't included any Raw guys this week, which makes sense

    I was lucky this week, I only remembered to pick my team at half 11 last night, and the deadline is 12. But the site was takin forever to open, it got workin again so I just had enough time to pick my team. Undertaker should be the first pick for everyone this week I think

    Ooh..just lookin at it now, XXX-Treme has a very good chance of finishin on top this week, especially if Noble and Kash win the tag titles. I couldn't predict that match so I picked one guy from each team


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,042 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    I picked a team and haven't bothered going back since. I even have the dog on my team!

    When the next one starts up I'l pay closer attention to it.

    ****..completely forgot to pick my team..20 minutes and I'll be back....

    Just about managed to pick my team in time. Unfortunately I didn't know that Big Show is defendin the title against Kane this week, so I didn't pick him. Only match I knew of was Highlanders vs Spirit Squad, but I dunno which members. So my team is very dodgy this week. Someone else could easily beat me this week

    131st overall this week by the way


    EDIT: I forgot to check last week's results til now, I was beaten last week, as I thought I might be! You's have a chance this week too, 2 of my Raw picks weren't on the show

    END OF WEEK 10

    the big news is that FOZZY did bad this week, 2nd last he was, i think it was the jelly babies he beat. this is the way things stand, anyway
    fozzy
    2815
    if the next 3 weeks were bad like week 10 jongore could pip you.
    jongore---2638
    i think you will finish the league in 2nd.
    vince
    2541
    you could end up 2nd or 4th.
    me
    2416
    3rd, 4th or last of the good guys is on the cards for me.
    ----bob
    2372
    2nd last of the good guys or last of the good guys i reckon.

    ====week 10 was interesting
    ===jongore====189===you might, might get close to fozzy
    ===me=======166===lord, i was full sure i would be best this week.
    ===lita======151====mabye (if you walked) took your time your assets would not jump up and down so much.
    ===bob=====134===trying to get out of 5th. hard luck.
    ===vince===121===just plodding along.

    Haha, I did terrible this week! Must be cos of the rush I was in tryin to pick my team! I've dropped to 320 overall. No bother though, I'm sure I'll have it fixed and back to proper order this week


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 459 ✭✭b0bsquish


    At the rate im going backwards at I'll be last by the end of it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,069 ✭✭✭triple h


    thats right bobsquish, you were in 2nd place for ages and then you dropped big time.
    anyway, as i have said before weeks 2,3 and 4 were bad for me and it was smack down that fecked me. i had some awful bad luck those weeks with smack down. i lost a lot of ground to fozzy those weeks. since week 5 i have had only one choice (take a chance) and i had no luck in doing that.

    END OF WEEK 11
    well it looks like the top 3 is going to be FOZZY , JONGORE AND VINCE.
    the only way i can finish in 2nd or 3rd is to have a good week 12 and do better (than vince and jongore) in summer slam.

    christ Fozzy you are lucky. you must have been thinking along the same line as me last week---- 'you know i am only going to pick one highlander'
    problem is you picked the right one and i picked the wrong one.
    vince had a good week, top 3 this week was fozzy, vince and me.
    you know something, i have not got a clue what team i should pick this week. the week before a main event is a dicey week with teams because the guys in the main event just talk and thats feck all points, then again they could have a match. the guys that are not in the main event are cheap to buy (value for money) then they may not be on raw and smack down!!!!!!!!! what to do???????????????????????/

    I decided to try a slightly different strategy this week, cos I didn't have much of a clue what'd be happening in WWE this week. Looks like it hasn't really paid off..
    Punk didn't have a match, and I was so close to picking Mike Knox, instead I picked a second Highlander, neither of which had matches. Knox was ECW's high scorer. SD had better pay off!

    Vin's doin very well this week, and still some decent picks left for SD

    Well, it looks like I've got it won, but I'd still like to win the last week. I've really gone out on a limb with my picks though..it's all or nothing!


    EDIT: And after Raw..it's pretty much nothing!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 559 ✭✭✭jongore

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 559 ✭✭✭jongore


    nuts, what a crappy few weeks:( I'll get ye all next time:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,069 ✭✭✭triple h


    yeah jongore, you lost 2nd place. not only did vince pass you out but i was catching you. i think i was 300 points behind you at one stage. you also had a slim chance at winning the league at ons stage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,594 ✭✭✭Fozzy


    Just saw Summerslam the other night, pretty confident I had it won! Still, I did crap for the last few weeks of it. Hopefully my bad run wears off by the time of the next season

    Until then, you can all bow down to your new king! Haha
