UPDATE: Death Pool for 2026 opening December 8...

Got my list ready to go. The bell tolls for thee! Any entry fee or is just bragging rights? -
We do the standard 3, 4, and 5 pts.... I wish CBS allowed the decimal points. Can't understand why they don't - seems like an easy add. But I stupidly talked my Commish into doing a 10 point bonus on top the 5 pts for 60+ yarders. We added that rule a decade ago when it almost never happened. But even then I've regretted it ever since. There's enough dumb luck in fantasy football already. Why should a 59 yarder get 5 points, but a 60 yarder get 15 points.?. That's ridiculous. I've tried to have the rule removed, but nobody will budge on it. My own damn fault.

Every site has the same kicking stats.... 1-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50+ There's been seven 60+ field goals this year, which is already an NFL record and the season ain't over. It's time to add the 60+ stat line.

Still alive, but started with 18... down to 6. Ain't no Championship til Week 17. My team improved a lot over the past couple weeks. Down to only $45 in Fab, but better to spend it than get cut. Added Josh Allen today for my last big free agent purchase... $130. Surprised I got him. Adams vs Pickens... I'd go Adams... rankings agree - Adams (6), Pickens (8).

50 movies. Give yourself one point for each you have seen.

The closing scene reveals "Rosebud." It was an odd movie. The plot seemed a bit convoluted, but Orson Welles was really good. Welle's was truly a good performer, back in an era where everyone just played over-the-top corny, he actually acted. Don't see a lot of that in old black and whites. One of his best performances - Touch of Evil. -

I like Kubrik too, but Clockwork came off as strange, for the sake of being strange. After watching it I read some reviews and there's people who still rave about it talking about the deep messages about society and whatnot. I wonder - if they watched it for the first time today, didn't know it was by Kubrik, and didn't know it was a "cult classic", would they really be raving? I highly doubt it. It's like the Mona Lona painting - if ya didn't know it was considered a masterpiece or who painted it, would you really consider it great art... or would it just be another old boring painting? At least I crossed Clockwork off the list in my quest to see every "classic." -

Haven't seen most of those made after 2000. Not into comic movies, or any of that crap. I prefer old-time movies, even though I'm from the 70's. Last week I finally got around to watching Stanley Kubrik's famous film - A Clockwork Orange .... A rapist/bully/thief goes to prison and gets "special medical treatment" to convert him to good. He gets out, gets beat up, and tries to kill himself... the end. If you've never seen it, DON'T. What a piece of crap. How is that considered a famous cult classic? Guess it had shock value in the 70's, but today it's garbage. If I had to pick an old timey movie to recommend - Das Boot. I recommended it to my nephew recently because he's into old timey movies as well. Came back raving about it. It's a true work of art. -
14 man... still impressive. Here's what I got in my 18-man. Goff - picked up for dirt cheap early. Jeanty - 1st rd draft pick... shocking I'm still alive Hall - 3rd rd draft pick ... ugh. Thought the receptions would make him valuable in this format, but he barely even gets those. JSN - 2nd rd pick and struck gold. Single-handedly carried my team. Olave - 5th rd pick. Worked out way better than expected. Kittle - $210 bid a few weeks back. First major pick up. Pittman - 6th rd pick. Again worked out better than expected. Pickens/Deebo/Shakir - All fairly cheap pick-ups over the year and all have paid off. ................................................................................ Now you can see why I'm ecstatic to pick up Jacobs and Chase. Don't have nearly enough "end gamers."

Good lord. That can't possibly be an 18-man league.?. If so you're the greatest FAB spender in the history of guillotine.
-
Nobody cares, I know - wife don't care, friends don't care... but c'mon humor me. I bid $120 on Josh Jacobs and $80 on Jamar Chase... and amazingly got 'em! Obviously because neither are playing this week. IF I survive this week... I'll be loaded the rest of the way!!! Oh happy day. Pray for Gobble.

Didn't realize we had any Guillotine players in here. My 3rd year playing - not so hot my first couple years (Wk 7 best - ugh). But this time... I'm still alive! Got lucky in the draft - ended up with players I wasn't thrilled about, but they've done well - JSN 2nd round was gold, and some lucky picks - Pittman & Olave. Down to $375 in FAB, which is 3rd highest of the 7 remaining. Sounds good, except I didn't spend wisely during the year. Only "end game" player I picked up was Kittle. Wasted the other on middling Wrs and Rbs to cover bye-weeks. If I did it over again, I would've been way more stingy with the FAB. Got some serious decisions to make with this week.... Breece Hall is gonna get me chopped eventually. Need to replace with an "end game" Rb, but not sure how much to spend. I heard spending/cost goes way down in these later weeks, but .... I've never been here before so I'm interested so I'm see it happen.

Did you survive?
