Was my answer the equivalent of picking Doyle Brunson to win the WSOP main event next year or picking Tom Brady to win the WSOP main event?

I know my answer was bad, but I'm just trying to get a sense of magnitude

It was roughly like taking Landon Donovan to be goalkeeper of the year

Basically the equivalent of picking Joe Webb to win the WSOP main event.

Actually Webb is probably more likely to win a WSOP main event than ever be a top 10 QB.

Week 15 closes with one lone ace.....

This week's lone ace was played by pokergrader.

This much-maligned QB does have his faults, but he's a correct today. His best stretch came after his team's bye, as he threw 8 TD's and no INT's in a 3-game span.

pokergrader aced with yet another Washington answer. He took.....

CORRECT ANSWER

Washington QB Kirk Cousins (98.3 rating)
1 point

pokergrader

Cousins is 6th among qualified QB's. He's completed 67.5% of his passes, passing for 4360 yards, 23 TD's, and 10 INT's.

We have finished 15 of 25 reveals, meaning we are 60% done!

Our leader, with 117 points, is pokergrader! He has 12 correct answers and 3 incorrects right now.

24 points behind, in 2nd place, is Priptonite! Prip lost his perfect game, but not his spot on the podium. He has 14 correct answers and 1 incorrect.

Rounding out the podium is lukethefluke! luke trails pokergrader by 36 points, and is 12 behind Prip. He has 13 correct answers and 2 incorrects, missing Questions 4 and 14.

That's all for today!

I will try and get the Week 16 reveal done during Monday's Detroit-Dallas game. Dallas is already correct, and nobody took Detroit. They'll either be an unplayed incorrect, or an unplayed ace.

Have a good week! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

Sweeeet. These Redskins answers are working out nicely when they are correct. Should bode well if any of them manage to be correct after the season is over. Based on my guesses thus far I'm assuming a couple more 80 yard bombs between Kirk and DeSean might be very helpful...

That was a good strategy, pokergrader. Skins seemed like such an obvious regression candidate even though there was no reason for it, a good "buck the trend" team. I, of course, answered them for the neg point differential (which still has a chance!) like a moron.

Prip, that's such a tough way to end your streak. Like a no-hitter being broken up by a bloop off the shortstop's glove or something.

I had my fair share of good luck though, can't complain.

Oh boy. At least that adds some comedy to it.

Worst thing in peehs is to choose a risky answer and be effectively *right* but still wind up wrong somehow. Stories I could tell.

Hey, at least I was in line for an ace! Given my usual answers, that counts as a win in my book.

I have a few ideas for how to point incorrects in the future:
1) Sheep + number of incorrects + number of people that guessed your answer (so someone who aimed for an ace gets less of a penalty that someone that erred with a popular pick.
2) sheep + average of incorrects and #ppl guessed your answer

Ownership stepped in and held A.J. Green out for tonight's game (and probably next week's). So that'll be another question I get wrong when the time comes.
