View Full Version : ***3ADL Pick'em Game...BREAKING NEWS!!!***

I have received a PM from AggieJohn disputing the scores that his team received in Weeks 5 through 7. I haven't had time to triple check his findings as work has been busy today...but it does appear that his team was unfairly scored and thus incorrectly seeded in the playoff bracket. It turns out that his team should've been the #5 overall team and thus not played the Girls in the 1st round of the playoffs.

As I do not have any way to go back and re-do the bracket...Russ and I have talked about this matter and have decided that the best line of recourse is for Dyslexia to play the Girls (as they are the #2 seed) this week...and the winner will play the All Seeing Guys over the next two weeks in a 5 game playoff covering the 2 3A state games, both 5A games, and 1 other state championship game of the downlow communities choosing from the 2nd week of state championship games. I apologize for the inconvenience this will cause...I know I'm about to get bombarded with 873 PM's from the PMS patrol...but it is what it is...and we have to make due with the situation at hand. Remember...it's only fitting that we called the amendment the AJ Clause! ;)

Makes you look W E A K. We've played on w/o changes being made until now, so going back and "fixing" things will just skew the whole thing worse. Lame. I'm proud of how well we girls have done, and no one can take that away. Cry? NO WAY.

I feel Team Carter was cheated due to the fact other teams received 3 bonus points and Team Carter did not. This is called Regional Discrimination. Please allow Team Carter back in the game or I will contact an atorney

It was my idea to bring AJ back into the fold. It was the only fair course of action considering how things played out.

Girls, good luck. It's time to sit back, nuke some popcorn, and watch the fireworks.

Yes...I'll provide you with thorough documentation once I get home. Some of do actually do work sometimes so I don't have the time needed right now to lay out all of the details. This information will be forthcoming soon...either tonight if I go home after work or I'll try and squeeze it in tomorrow. For not being in retail anymore...this December is sure going to be a rough one! :(

You guys are kidding right? The fault and responsibility for the playoff bracket is solely in those who made the game(who were responsible for each week's tally) and should not be forced on a team that finished in second place and did so fair and square. To suddenly have that same team play a "make-up game" in the championship round is beyond comprehension and in no way could it be considered "fair". Even if you guys are joking about this, it takes away from girls/guy's ability to research their picks without constant distraction.
But if you and addy have seriously decided to let AJ's team(which lost their round) jump into the arena in what is essentially the second semifinals, it slams all of us who took this game serious and in a word could only be reprehensibly criminal. :eek: :o

Criminal is a tad strong but all this is a joke, right? It's got to be. I know I probably can go back and find one or two of our week's picks not correctly counted, I'm sure. If that's the case then my team should be allowed another game right? The idea of any team getting another shot this late invalidates the whole playoffs.:hand:

Just one question from me, so that I fully understand where the "supposed" screw up is. Were Dyslexia's actual PICKS shown incorrectly on the spread sheet, therefore causing scoring to be incorrect? OR was the scoring incorrect ONLY on your part, Adidas?

the best line of recourse is for Dyslexia to play the Girls (as they are the #2 seed) this week...
Regardless of whether Dyslexia "should have" played us in the 1st round or not, THEY DID....and WE WON, fair and square. What excuse are they going to come up with THIS WEEK when we beat the crap out of them AGAIN?
