[mikemca]

in both phx

[shaunovery]

In for Phoenix

[mikejamm]

I say we start a contest on who can kick the shit out of a driver at the end of a race! Pretty sure Jeff won this week! He was pretty sly about casually walk'in over to Brad K and acting like he was just gonna "talk" about what happened! Let these boys fight after the race, just like the good 'ol days! Hell of a lot more exciting that's for damn sure!

[yisman]

end of the season and I still haven't figured out how to use scrubs

[shaunovery]

Think it's pot luck with these scrubs some weeks

[yisman]

I hate the pricing

this past week I was going to use Mears, but he costs like 18

Danica also like 15 or 16

makes no sense, they're terrible

[shaunovery]

Me too why is mears near the 18m mark he had a good run at the start of the season but useless now

[rob]

I agree.
In the CDM game that Shaunovery are in, the top 6 drivers are in the 20-23 range. Mears and Patrick are around 8-9 while drivers like Ragan and Sorenson are 4-5. I think those values are much more accurate.

[LT Profits]

In for both for Phoenix

[Miklos]

In for both this week in Phoenix.

[shaunovery]

Playing both pots this week

And usual 50 with yis

[CarolinaDaze]

Playing both pots this week

And usual 50 with yis

Shaun must feel good about his lineup this week. I think its gonna be a great race.

[yisman]

was right in the thick of it...

..and then Jimmie Johnson happened

[mikemca]

New chase is definitely exciting but Hamlin and Newman have no business having a shot at the championship.

If Logano or Harvick don't win , it will be the weakest champion EVER.

I mean you got to root for a guy like Newman but it just doesn't seem right if he wins by being mediocre.

[shaunovery]

Think I scored nearly 400 this week and not getting anything back

Agree with mikemca if anyone other than harvick or Logano doesn't win it it will a travesty

[yisman]

it's an awful setup and it's not surprising that you end up with this trash at the end

the winner will not have earned it, IMO

a lot of the real competition got eliminated by the horrible setup

in a real chase, newman and hamlin wouldn't finish top 4 this year, especially not newman

[yisman]

Ryan Newman has not won or even finished second this year. His best finish was third.

But now he has a very real chance to win the Sprint Cup.

[shaunovery]

Think they should revert back to the old format
Or even

10 race chase points scoring as normal but after each 2 races the last 2 in he chase get dropped

[rob]

Ryan Newman has not won or even finished second this year. His best finish was third.

But now he has a very real chance to win the Sprint Cup.

And he barely stayed alive thanks to a controversial last-lap pass.

[yisman]

yeah that was dirty, putting Larson into the wall

hoping someone puts Newman into the wall


what newman did was horrible for nascar

put a good driver out of the chase in favor of some *$^&# who doesn't deserve it


paid rob, shaun, and daze for beating me

Exactly, How can you even begin to call this bullshit legitimate or even remotely exciting? Newman is a fuk'in joke who like Yis said, didn't even win a fuk'in race all year! The drivers who should be racing for the Championship aren't even fuk'in in it and you call this racing? A bunch of nobody's who can barely finish in the top ten during the season are contending and this is suppose to make racing "fair" for all? Yeah right, Nascar can go fuk itself! It's become the joke of professional sports.

[shaunovery]

Newman and Hamlin have barely come close to winning for most of the season

Ok Logano and harvick do content each week so for the future of the chase format hopefully it will be 1of those 2

[yisman]

I think it will be

unless they both get taken out in a wreck

[shaunovery]

Seem to remember Denny winning at homestead last yr or was it the yr before maybe he thinks he can steal a title

Ok guys this is it, 1 last race for 2014. Then i turn this over to Shaun to lead us into the promise land next year. It'll be interesting to see which game he chose's for us to play, i'm really hoping ESPN comes back with one. I also hope Shaun will allow us to still have the 2 pots, one for average betters and one for High Rollers. Either way its been another fun season, and good luck to you guys with all yours bets.
