NASCAR Pick 'Em 2016 Brickyard 400

[KevinWI]

Hi everybody. Congrats to @kkfan91 for picking winner Matt Kenseth while leader @pudge gets a respectable P6 with Jamie Mac. This week we go to my favorite track with the wrong cars.

 

[DUN24]

@Greg getting p15 with kez is pretty much the story of his year..

I think @Johali @pudge and @kkfan91 won this week.

 

[pjmolo]

Game results through New Hampshire.

Accuracy not guaranteed . . . .

 

[Brent]

I wonder who will be the most picked driver this week....

 

[Greg]

I never expected to dominate this thing so throughly and be 60 points in front of my nearest competitor at this stage.

I am going with Jeff Gordon at the Brickyard.

 

[kkfan91]

...yeah I'm guessing a good portion

 

[Greg]

Jeff Gordon has the greg voodoo on him this sunday.

Disclaimer note: Voodoo only meant to reflect points voodoo. I really hope he has a great race.

Not me. I'm saving him for next week. He needs to run a race with the #88 crew first.

So much for secrecy in driver picking and strategy.

I could be pulling an elaborate ruse with my pick actually being Reed Sorenson

Picks are final.

hahahaha wow

Let's talk about "conditional picks."

About half of you who picked Gordon wrote "If he enters, Jeff Gordon, if not, xyz."

I gave all of you Gordon this week, but I won't be accepting these kind of conditional picks again. Part of the challenge of the game is the uncertainty regarding driver substitutions and I think if these types of picks were accepted, it takes some of that uncertainty out of it. No hard feelings, just setting something in stone for the future.

FYI, I've always allowed people to change their pick provided the change was made before the noon EST Thursday deadline.

Also no idea what happened to pudge.

 

[aunty dive]

Pudge letting us all back in.

What a sportsman!

God I want to root against the 88 on Sunday so bad. But I just can't

So the issue is people basically placing back up bets, right?

Not quite sure I understand. I mean, am I allowed to use the #88 next week? I mean I didn't say that I would use him until I knew he was in the car. I'm guessing you meant when people submitted their picks they put, "Gordon, if not XYZ."

 

[RacerrecaR]

Precisely....I was one of those

 

[jpell15]

So hopefully Gordon does better than logano, menard, and Newman

Logano's car blows up on lap two.

 

[jpell15]

Logano's car blows up on lap two.

And takes out Newman and menard with him?

 

[Ashstrodamus]

Logano's car blows up on lap two.

Ummm, no! Logano finishes 3rd, giving me a 1 point lead on pudge. Speeding penalty for Gordon on the final stop, giving him a mediocre 26th place finish!

Dream on running pussycat.

Why wouldn't you pick Gordon? He's great at Indy and only has 1 more race. It's literally a free pick.

Gotta get used to the team and car, plus hasn't run all season. He has five wins at Indy, BUT......SIX wins at Pocono!!!!

 

[Fordracing7]

Because almost everyone else is picking him....so therefore there is little to no leverage

[Johali]

Well Hell. I gained 28 on @pudge and lost 6 to @Ashstrodamus
