With a good bet, being the only player to hit question 1, and hitting 2 of the 3 question 5 picks, it's best3444 jumping into the lead with the biggest margin of the season so far! After climbing the ranks from behind all year long, will he be able to continue his momentum and increase his cushion or will he slip and let the rest of the pack catch up?

I mean, if you're gonna be getting a roof done anyway. I wouldn't make a purchasing decision based on the free AR but if the price/quality of the job was on par with other contractor estimates that deal might kick it to their side.

@Slug There seems to be a missing word here but it seems most people accept that it is something like, "how many rushing yards will the Houston Texans accumulate?"
The missing word was "get".

What exactly is the Commanders plan @Slug? Burn it down, get a high draft pick and choose a QB? Fire Riverboat Ron? Or is this simply a save money thing?
I'm assuming this is a "we have a ton of money tied up in one position group and we need to spread it around while also giving new management more options come draft time" thing.

Shaun of the Dead probably isn't considered horror at all, but it's really all I got.
I would consider it a horror. It's tough with horror comedies sometimes because often the comedy takes you so far out of the horror that your brain "forgets" that it's watching something gruesome. In my head the test is, if you were to take out the jokes and all the actors played the scenes "straight" would it be a horror film? Then yeah, it counts.

I don't want to tell you how to run your stuff but maybe we could do what we did week 1 and 2 and just pick a team for some extra cash flow.
Maybe too late to suggest it as well.
A good idea, had I thought of it this morning. :P At this point I feel like it's too short notice and wouldn't be fair to those people who don't notice the thread.

Here at the halfway point of the season shall be our first (and hopefully only) Bye of the season. The leader board got a decent shuffling in Week 7 so stay tuned for Week 9 to see how it all shook out and to kick off the start of the second half of the competition!

So I'm 2 bosses into Lies of P and so far it's pretty terrific. Feels like a more...deliberate Bloodborne but with a Demons Souls world layout (hubworld versus the interconnect of DaS or Bloodborne). It's pretty fun so far. Hoping the difficulty ramps up as I move forward.
Thanks again to @Littleronin and @BasemntDweller2!

thewhyteboar continues his impressive 6 week reign atop the standings! But almost the entire board is right on his heels, in easy striking distance of first place. Will he continue to be able to hold the pack at bay?
########## Week 6 Results ##########
Week 6 Feature Game - Baltimore Ravens (-4.5) @ Tennessee Titans
The Ravens go to London and take down the Titans by a score of 19.5(24-4.5)-16. Bets on Baltimore win.QUESTIONS
1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Ravens TD, Ravens FG, Ravens safety, Titans TD, Titans FG, Titans safety, or other? ($300 for the correct call)
The teams traded field goals in the 1st quarter, but the Ravens did it first with a Justin Tucker 41 yarder. Ravens FG is the call. Slug is the only one to get this right.
2) Who will score the first TD in the Feature Game? By "Score" we mean, "the guy holding the ball in the endzone" so only pick a QB if you think it will be a rushing TD by him. ($300 for the right team)
Zay Flowers found the endzone first on the tail of a 10 yard reception for the score. AbsolutSurgen was the only player to call Flowers' number.3) Name a player that you think will break a long run in Week 6. If that player is in the top 3 longest runs of the week you win. ($400 for the right answer)
Derrick Henry, Raheem Mostert and Saquon Barkley had the three longest runs of Week 6. If you named one of these guys you got it.
4) Washington Commanders @ Atlanta Falcons - Over or Under 42.5 total points? ($200 for the correct answer)
The Commanders take the win over Atlanta by a score of 24-16 for 40 total. Under is the call.5) Call the winners:
Minnesota at Chicago
Seattle at Cincinnati
Detroit at Tampa Bay
($200 for each correctly named winner, $500 bonus if you hit all 3)
Not a lot of faith in the Bengals out there this week. It was only AbsolutSurgen who hit all 3 to earn the bonus!######### LEADERBOARD #########
