Congratulations Aug. Man, San, Aug got you on the bonus picks. You both racked up some points today!

WTG Aug...nice win! now for an early start on next week voodoo

by StAugustineFL Mon Sep 25, 2017 3:55 pm

Thanks all. It's not often the bonus makes a difference but it sure did yesterday.

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 01, 2017 4:48 pm

Why can't I learn to stay away from the AA' s? I never guess correctly and they always kill me lol

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 01, 2017 6:08 pm

Congrats Pickle!

You put up a good showing bills. If you join us in 2018 I'm sure your team will be a force to be reckoned with. Wish there was a way to see the standings since you've joined. I can go back week-by-week to tally the points but that's too much effort, lol

by BillsfaninSoFla Tue Oct 03, 2017 10:20 am

Thanks Aug. I think my first race was the July Daytona.
It sure does make the race a lot more fun to watch!

by BillsfaninSoFla Wed Oct 04, 2017 1:12 pm

If we started out at a 0.00 then I can divide points by the number of races to get my average weekly points. Then take my average weekly points and times it by the number of races I missed. That would give a rough idea? no? I didn't do it yet, but it sounds logical. maybe too easy lol

by sangria Thu Oct 05, 2017 4:41 pm

Y'all are making my brain hurt!!

by BillsfaninSoFla Thu Oct 05, 2017 5:57 pm

Lol San.

by StAugustineFL Thu Oct 05, 2017 6:00 pm

I did the math. You've been in 14 races of 29. 3506.5 pts/14 races = 250.46 race average. Multiply the 250.46 x 15 races you missed equals 3757 total pts. Add 3506.5 + 3757 = 7233.5. Subtract Pickle's 6862 and you would theoretically be in the lead by 371.5.

by BillsfaninSoFla Thu Oct 05, 2017 8:04 pm

Well dang, Aug to the rescue on the math!

by BillsfaninSoFla Thu Oct 05, 2017 9:35 pm

And I'll probably average 90 the rest of year Smile

Just makes it more fun to check in

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 08, 2017 4:50 pm

Congrats Rooster!

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 08, 2017 4:58 pm

Wow Rooster. You had an excellent performance, very interesting picks

by StAugustineFL Sun Oct 08, 2017 7:36 pm

Congrats Rooster. Rooster

Edit: that emoticon was made for Rooster a few years ago when this little corner of the internet began. It's endearing, lol

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 08, 2017 7:54 pm

Lol Aug.

by StAugustineFL Sun Oct 15, 2017 7:54 am

Dega today. Will more than 20 drivers make it to the finish? We shall see.

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 5:42 pm

Dega baby! Not all surprised at that crash and burn!

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 5:44 pm

LOL Aug at explaining that emoticon! I have been busy and haven't checked in in a while. Rooster loves that emoticon. :-)

You may be spot on with your prediction!

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:36 pm

This has been crazy

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:44 pm

What a hell of a finish! Maybe 10 left, but that last lap was great!

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:46 pm

Another nice win Billsfan. Not sure I'm fond of you taking my boy though!! Surprised

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:49 pm

Thanks San. LOL I do think it's my first time taking BB! At least I didn't jinx him. I was so close to taking Earnhardt today also

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:50 pm

I wanted to take Joey, but his season has been so bad that I decided not to. Guess I should have! I usually have both of the Penske boys on my roster.

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:52 pm

Good luck to Denver tonight. Have them in my survivor pool. Only 14 out of 100 people are left.

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:54 pm

Bah.... I'm boycotting NFL, so don't care who wins any game (unless it's the Cowboys).

Haven't watched since the idiot started the kneeling last year.

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:54 pm

Chase had a hole, took it and had it. Looked like Suarez came down into him.

by sangria Sun Oct 15, 2017 6:55 pm

He did, and no one could blame him for going for it.

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 15, 2017 7:06 pm

Trust me I agree about the idiots kneeling. Angers me . Just can't find myself boycotting. We did watch whole car race instead of football

by StAugustineFL Sun Oct 15, 2017 7:21 pm

Nice win bills! I started watching the race. Next thing ya know I dozed off around 4pm and woke up with 20 laps and only a handful of drivers left, lol

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 15, 2017 7:54 pm

Thanks Aug. I went with a totally different strategy today. Weird and just plain lucky in the wreck fest.

I know...What a bummer! Didn't see that coming, Crying or Very sad

by sangria Fri Oct 20, 2017 4:49 pm

Good win last week Billsfan! I kept laughing as the number of drivers kept dwindling.

This has been a strange race with rules and penalties. I'm not sure that I agree with all of them. I hate that Larson has to pray to make it to the next round, when he definitely deserves to be there.

by sangria Sun Oct 22, 2017 6:45 pm

Damn at Blaney's PD!

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 22, 2017 7:01 pm

Congrats San Good job. Even BB's speeding couldn't drag you down. LOL

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 22, 2017 7:04 pm

That's why I took Blaney today. Good car, started 40th

by BillsfaninSoFla Sat Oct 28, 2017 6:31 pm

Qualifying is tomorrow?'

by StAugustineFL Sun Oct 29, 2017 9:01 am

BillsfaninSoFla wrote:Qualifying is tomorrow?'

Yeah, looks like it is at noon today. There have been a few races with same day qualifying this year. It'd be nice to know who qualifies where but I may not be available during that short window between it and race time so threw caution to the wind and set my lineup.

by sangria Sun Oct 29, 2017 9:02 am

Dammit.... yes, Billsfan.

I just went to make my picks and realized it. Qualifying is at 12:00 and race starts at 3:00. I hate when they do it this way!

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 29, 2017 10:07 am

I know. Hate it! I went ahead and set mine too just in case.

by sangria Sun Oct 29, 2017 12:47 pm

I'm watching the qualifying and this is one of those funky ones. Top 12 in the first round of qualifying now race to see starting position, while 13 down are set with starting position from the 1st round of qualifying.

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 29, 2017 12:59 pm

Thanks San. Hopefully they don't experiment with this same day qualifying crap next year!

by sangria Sun Oct 29, 2017 1:22 pm

A little precip around them - hope it stays mostly to the east. There were a few sprinkles on some windshields during qualifying.

Just watched this on the pre-race. This is a great story....

From Amish life to a job in NASCAR: Crew member’s unusual journey

by StAugustineFL Sun Oct 29, 2017 2:44 pm

Nice story san. Hopefully the Amish community accepts him for realizing his dream although he had to leave his roots.

by BillsfaninSoFla Sun Oct 29, 2017 5:07 pm

Good story. I don't think they're very willing to accept those that leave howevr. They are considered shamed.
