May have fallen up short final day but got the one that mattered.  :D   Thank you for setting this up these past few weeks.   Happy Thanksgiving.

Just amazing!  I would like to thank the players and coaches who have made me the prognosticator that I am today....

SC.

Do Coach Andrew and d3screenname get relegated, or just CentPA and Jorge?

Whilst it wasn't a great weekend for either Amherst soccer team, at least there's one pennant for the wall.  I do want to boast about my superb disciplinary record over the tourney, but am glad it didn't Goto a shoutout.

I will definitely sleep well tonight.


Coach Jeff

Thanks EJay...Maybe next year we can give SC a chance.... :D

Yes.  I'll be creating a weekly pool every week beginning with the opening weekend. 10 games per weekend. Stay tuned!

Opening Weekend Pool is up!
https://forms.gle/2VJMnSp8rwvHqG5u6

Same rules as last season; 5 points for each correct winner, 10 points for the correct score.

I'm adding a new rule this year that I'm calling the "SC rule"... I'm going to give everyone one throw-away weekend. I think we'll have 11 weeks of competition so I'll only count your 10 highest results. That way if you have a really crappy week (i.e. Simple Coach scoring 0 one week) or if you forget to click the submit button on week (i.e. Simple Coach not submitting one week), then hopefully you won't be penalized.

Remember to pay close attention to the score you're entering. For instance, don't select to team A to defeat team B, but then list the score as 1-2 in favor of team B.

I'll close the pool Thursday night. Good luck!

I for one, love this rule.  Because it is named after me, do I get multiple applications of the SC rule?

SC.Rulz.

11 participants thus far.  Pool closes tonight! Get those picks in! I'll post a summary of picks tomorrow.

I can't participate because I always suck at these things and my narcissistic equilibrium is just too fragile...so I will continue to humiliate myself in my usual ways.

That said, your pick of games looks flawless.

Best of luck to this year's participants.
