as much as I want to see how big the other thread will get throughout the year, I think we needed a cleaner OP for newer members to be able to tell what is going on, so for all future discussion please come to this thread and kindly let the other one die. 

The draft is over and we have our 6 new FANTASTIC teams, I'm really excited to see how this season unfolds as I think any team can win after the draft here is the new updated rosters and the team standings as of WEEK 8.

wishishere is the other one with 5900, if I really have to drop him this week I'm going to be pissed because he is soooo good.

Like I said, I might have accidentally skipped an event for one or two people but almost all of them will be accurate

@Messiah, crimedawg is among those you listed with 5925 as the solo leader. Also this weekend's Top 10 is definitely Badger-infested, so the Wolves have Mortis to thank for them not winning and by a large margin. Of course it can all still change one way or another after the last event is counted (though I'm expecting it to go down to some 3 fights total and most people getting 50-150 points total from it).



01. Crimedawg-5925 (Wolves)
02. Wishishere-5900 (Punks)
    Danno-5900 (Badgers)
04. Diet-5825 (Badgers)
    Hiblet-5825 (Sons)
06. Dudedude-5800 (Wolves)
    Brandt-5800 (Swick)
08. Soccerkick-5775 (Badgers)
    Almo-5775 (Badgers)
10. Joe Kerr-5750 (Punks)

4 Badgers, 2 Wolves, 2 Punks, 1 Son and 1 Swick.

Messiah, so how do you suggest we deal with the non-pickers and others who are dragging the team down? Shouldn't the captain scream at them or something? Or detention maybe? Just throwing some ideas out there, I know it's not my job:).

My worst UFC card as well... Mizugaki got robbed, I switched my pick from Boetch to Okami at the last second... oh well.

I switched my henderson and hunt picks last second.  I regret it.  Almost switched to Bader too because rampage looked like he didn't care..oh well.  I was too indecisive this card.  I thought I got lucky on the Shields pick too.

@joe kerr. leave a comment with soccer kick then

plus i put this on wakes page 2 or 3 days ago and the two mvp threads on here. haven is dropped and james01 is permanent. haven even won an event this weekend. i did not mind all his picks being first round tko's for the smaller events but not for zuffa and bellator events. plus i have had my eye on james01 for 3 weeks.

I'm almost positive that wishishere will become the 1st person to win his 2nd weekend contest of the year.

So wishishere has won 2 events and gotten a 2nd in the last 5 weeks, and is now in 6th place. If we lose him I'll cry lol.

@messaih. think of this like nascar. (i don't like the sport but the have an intersting way of determining their champion). most points wins the 5 million dollars or whatever.  the first place guy might not have any wins. just alot of 2nd thru 10ths. 2nd place gets none i think. if i end up 8th thru 12th but  have a boatload of first place in events i would want that then somebody who got the top 8 and did not nearly have as many as me. its about the wins to me. there the trophies. we still have over ten months and i lost two perfects b/c i went award hunting. no more of that zhit/. close to 140 fights this weekend. i have most of it picked out. plus i do have the best team AND you know it. it can't be beat. plus by the end of the year it will be "the dude" who wins best pickup. my team again.

Wolf, Messiah can't be the only opponent we have that enjoys talking **** as much as we do, lol.  At least he is pretty good at it.

...and the Badgers once again f**ked over by guys not making picks... If I cared I would add up all "potentially" missed points of the remaining teams... I think we would win by a landslide (maybe that should be an award as well).
