Cheesestradamus Week 17: Doubly Cheesy

Aaron Rodgers has made many Cheesestradamus players very happy this season.

Well everyone, we have come to the final week of the season, and the final week of Cheesestradamus. But this is a double-points week, so a slim lead in the standings can mean next to nothing if you're not on your game. I apologize for the late update of the form last week, but I've gone over both of this week's forms diligently to make sure that there are no issues.

After Week 16, Swenny916 holds a one-point lead in the standings over power296, who in turn is up by two points over the tandem of Jabooty and neilfunk69. Three points is a small margin though, with a maximum of 48 points on the line this week.

I have two separate forms set up for Week 17. The first is the typical form for this week's Packers-Lions game. The second is similar to the bye week post, with eight questions spanning across the entire NFL. Your categories to predict are below:

Flynn Question

is that plus or minus 1 minute?

REPORTER: What do you think is happening to the team?
MICHAEL RAY RICHARDSON: The ship be sinking.
REPORTER: How far can it sink?

Oops did my Flynn question wrong

but I think it’s easy enough to understand. I just said he starts the 2nd half. Hope I don’t have to do the whole thing over.

thought about that too

But starting the second half means the Packers get the second half kick and don’t return it

About the Bonus predictions

Would saying Mike Neal records at least one tackle or DJ Williams gets at least one reception be okay? They both check out for the bonus rules I do believe, they are just a bit, well, cheesy.

I believe so.

I was still forced to give “D.J. Smith gets 6 tackles” when he was starting, so these are legit.

Yeah, can we just scratch the Flynn question?

Kind of pointless now.

Not if people said he would start.

"We don't play scared!"

After further review,
the Munsters of the Midway still suck!

I said Flynn would start BEFORE the team announced Rodgers was inactive

IMO, I should be the only one to get points on that question! :)

by Jurp on Jan 1, 2012 5:40 PM CST up reply actions  

Agreed,

if you were, in fact, the only one to predict that.

And, that is why we can’t “just scrap the Flynn question.”
