Homestead Results - Beef is 3 Time Champion!!!!!

Final Standings:




Race Recap:

Our final race in Homestead saw our 3 finalists separated by 5 points, but with so little drivers from which to choose it must have felt like miles for Rusty.  The good thing for Rusty is Blaney shit the bed early.  Blaney kept fighting and ultimately finished 26th, but it would not be enough.  Things were a little more brutal for Chonk...  Newman held his lead over McMurray for the entire race and Chonk would be Champion, right?  Wrong.  A controversial caution put Edwards in a do or die situation and we all know what happened next... carnage.  Newman is swept up in the fray and finished 25th.  While Johnson was celebrating his place in history, if you looked at the bottom corner of your screen you could see McMurray and Beef doing burnouts as well.  McMurray held steady all race and came home 5th giving Beef his 3rd Championship.  Congratulations to Beef our 2016 NASCAR Fantassy League Champion!!!!!

Stats:

Check out the Final 3 contender's roads to the Finals and check out Beef's rise to the top!  That gives A-Holes like me hope for next season for sure.



Beef did it with only 1 win, but his average finish for the entire season was 13th which is the best in our league.  Chonk and Piston also averaged 13th.  Rusty, Wheels, Shepard, and Graziano averaged 14th place finishes.  It just goes to show you that many strategies can get you to the end, but you pretty much have to hold on to your ass when you get there... and Beef's solid steady ascent to the top proof that wins are great, but not everything when it comes to winning this thing.

3 TIME:


FINAL RAMBLINGS:

It's just 3 short months until Daytona!!!

I'll send out a note to remind everyone and see who's IN for 2017.  Let's get more people for next year!  The more the merrier!

Cheers!

Phoenix Results - Chonk Takes the Lead!!! 1 to Go!!!!


Hola Amigos!  Race 1 of the Nut Buster or Finisher Round is in the books and that means that we head to Homestead on Sunday to figure out who will take home the 2016 NASCAR Fantassy Cup Championship!  

Phoenix was a tough race and each team is scraping the bottom of the barrel for drivers to choose.  That being said Chonk still had Hamlin (7th), Beef took Blaney (8th) and Rusty still had Keselowski (14th).  So Chonk takes a slim 2 point lead over Beef in 2nd and Rusty is only 5 back because of those 3 big Bonus Points for the Edwards win in the Fluffer Round.   

All 3 of our contenders have been here before and have taken home the prize*.  Beef in 2004 and 2014*, Rusty in 2006 and Chonk also in 2014*.  Who will have what it takes to do it this year?

I can probably guess who each team will take, and I know Carl, Joey, Kyle and Jimmie will not decide who will win our League... unless they wreck your pick that is.

Congratulations for making it this far and good luck in Miami this weekend!

Cheers!

Texas Results - Fluffer Round Complete - Bring on the Finisher!!!!

CHASE - FLIRTER to FLUFFER Final Standings


In our last race before TrumpLand was born, we have to say goodbye to Shepard and Ideal.  Congrats on a great season, but unfortunately you guys came up a little short this year.  Ideal needed Dillon to win and Shepard needed Kyle Busch to finish strong and Chase to shit the bed.  That didn't happen and 2 very strong teams' seasons have come to an end.

Rusty took Edwards who won the race.  Rusty will start the Finisher Round with 3 extra Bonus points.  This could be huge as we will now reset the points to 2000 PLUS 3 points for any Fluffer Round Wins!  Chonk and Beef also had a solid race and will join Rusty to determine how we will divide up the "Chips" this year.

CONGRATULATIONS GUYS!!!!!!



FINISHER RULES RECAP:
  • Fourth round - (races 35 & 36) - “The Finisher”
    • The three teams entering the Finisher Round will have their points reset to 2000
    • Three bonus points for each win in the previous Fluffer round will be awarded
    • Wins in the Finisher round are worth 3 extra points which will be added to their final total at the end of that round
    • The team with the most points after races 35 and 36 is the NASCAR Fantassy Cup winner
    • Same format for tiebreakers applies
    • Please note that the NSCS modifies their points system for their final race; our NFCL will award whatever points that are posted in the official race results on NASCAR.com

Martinsville Results - Johnson Wins! Cubs Win!!! - Race 1 of 2 Fluffer Round Races in the Books - 2 Teams in Trouble!!!!


Hola Amigos!  Well Martinsville was good for the top teams and no so good for the bottom teams, and the bottom teams really needed to shake things up a little as we head into the final Fluffer Round race in Texas.  

RACE RECAP:

Rusty (2nd) took Hamlin who tangled with the race winner Johnson for the entire race but came home with a solid 3rd place finish.  Chonk (1st) and Beef (3rd) took Martinsville stud Gordon who brought it home in 6th.  So the top 3 had a great day in Martinsville.  Shepard (4th) and Ideal (5th) gambled on Stewart who never really showed up in Martinsville and finished 26th.

CHASE UPDATE:

As you all know, our Fluffer Round consists of just 2 races and points accumulate through the 1st 8 races.  This puts Shepard and Ideal in a tough position as they now trail 3rd place by 28 and 62 points respectively.  So Shepard could qualify on Points but Ideal needs to win in Texas.

Chonk, Rusty and Beef are in a great position to move on and Chonk and Rusty are pretty much locked in on points.  BUT .... A win by Shepard and/or Ideal could completely turn this Chase on its' head.  That sounds simple* but everyone is limited on the drivers they can choose at this point.  Have Shepard or Ideal saved that perfect driver for Texas?  It will be tough and take some luck for those guys to move on, but stranger things have happened for sure...

Yee Haw Mfers!!! We in Texas this week!!!
